Today's EU general forum whinge

[Gadzooks]

LOL its deleted now

hence my initial "Interesting to see that today's whinge was deleted" post

Do you blame them? The MB QQers are trying to influence Blizzard's policy every day, when they have stated there is no problem, and they are not concerned about the practice. There's another whiner in the US General forum today, who refuses to back off his idiotic stance that MBing is cheating, and is seizing on any and all warped definitions of what cheating is to defend his crying.

In all honesty, it's the same people, over and over, and they are just uptight, anal retentive/more than slightly OCD types who refuse to let go of their crying, because they got beat up in a BG by MBers. It's almost a mental illness.

Their new shiny toy they've grabbed onto is the "unintended" aspect - they're making it seem like we "discovered" MBing by accident,and all Blizz has to do is review it and "discover" it's cheating. It's low down, filthy, lazy thinking, and the ones that do it need to be publically made fools of for doing it, it's loaded language to make it seem like MBers are directly or indirectly breaking the rules, and they only use that specific word to cast MBers in a negative light. That's one issue I wish a Blue would respond to, and stomp flat - just post that Blizz was aware of MBing all the way through development, and while MBing was not considered the official way to play, they indirectly supported it with /follow and other tools, and decisions were made knowing full well MBers would benefit. That will end that line of crying - and they'll move onto their next QQ flavor of the week.

The bright side is the threads generate a lot of interest in MBing, and I'm seeing a huge swell of support of MBing, whereas in the past it was uniformly negative. We get to grow our community, we get more support, and they get...to cry more. Win win! But if Blizz is deleting threads (the CSF GMs in the US forums don't waste any time on them anymore, good for them), they better be careful or there might be some forum vacations happening if they keep beating what's left of the dead horse - or Blizzard will do something the directly supports MBing, they can and have been that snarky in the past.

I mean, c'mon, Blizzard has MB screenshots in their screenshot gallery.
