We've been repeatedly saying in various threads recently that we are listening, even if we're not acting on every piece of feedback we read. Well readers, listen up!

With the help of Ghostcrawler, the following will be added to the patch notes for the next PTR update:
  • Players are once again free to dance in combat (without causing graphic errors). Other animations, such as attacks, will take precedence over dancing. The dance animation will be suppressed until the higher priority animation is complete. Fun has been unnerfed.

The concerns of the people vanished. And there was much dancing.

Everytime I read "Ghostcrawler" mentioned in a Blizzard post of some kind it is always followed by arrogant, condescending content. Why is that?

And glad the developers unfixed that pesky, game breaking dancing in combat thing....

I can only guess that ghostcrawler has compromising photos of the CEO of blizzard.

I can't think of any other company that would keep someone around who cost them 600,000 customers in 4 months.

Dear Zarhym, please schedule a return visit to your doctor, and have him adjust the dosage of your sarcasm medication, thank you.

When I first read it, I saw it as humor. Not sarcasm. It was in response I think to a long thread about 'nerfing fun' when it was discovered that /dance was temp disabled last patch.

My, my, but we are negative today.

I don't think I'd insult summer interns like that.

Ok, I apologize. It was cute, it was lighthearted. And with so much else going on, it felt out of place.

I think I've taken a cataclysmic hit to my sense of humor somewhere. sad

What I've noticed is that when games are losing subs, even a small amount, and the masses think the game has made mistakes that need to corrected, these little attempts at humor just don't cut it.

Just from a PR stand point, this along with their blogs and lies, or "bliegs", can make it seem like they don't take the state of the game very seriously.

Not as bad as the guy getting his office filled with sand while HR is preparing his layoff papers of course like WAR. ;p

I had assumed dancing in combat was working, and other players were just out of phase. Not that they do much phasing. beatup

It's almost as if WoW has turned into a F2P browser launched game by a small no-name company.

What happened to Blizzard/WoW of 2005?

I know they *intended* it as funny. But I actually am waiting/hoping they fix some major issues so I can return to playing a game I used to really like. This comment is downright insulting. It is basically saying "we hear all your feedback, but we think your wrong. Here, look- we will mock you now."

I wish I could re-cancel my subscription out of spite. This one goes right next to the Steve Jobs' classic "there's nothing wrong with the iPhone 4, you're holding it wrong".

Way to go with sarcasm only works if you don't have major bugs that needs fixing. Hey but the enrollment numbers are down so keep it up blizz and Rift will be the next big thing. I don't think that being condescending is the best way to win friend's and influence people. It is almost like they are trying to ostracize players.
