Whats wrong about this forum? Do you need anything more/different?

I like Barrens Chat

Barrens Chat forever.

If they add an API that teebs can tap into, he could integrate it into the forum settings. Probably have an option to link our account to our character for avatar and level and realm etc.

I believe Ion said in a recent interview they will have their own forums, along with realm sections and class sections.

This is the only forum we need!

But bringing back the old official forums will also be nice :) I think unofficial forums normally have the better community though.

the official forums were always bad and only good to see who are the crybabys on your server. Only the class forums were sometimes good

I am not masochistic enough to spend time on official forums. Fan forums is where it all happens! :)

What do you guys think of having a totally separate official classic forums where we get to use our classic characters to post?

Source? Never heard this before.

I was just wondering about official

Blizzard has no passion, neither cares about the community (specially with Classic).
If they ever make a forum for us, it will be the same static dull booring-looking forum with no "community feeling" like their BFA counterpart.

And lets not talk about their SJW cencorship... it's so out of hand that if you try to post a pepe meme picture you get called a Nazi and perma banned. No thanks.

Fan-made all the way.

I'm confused as to why you think Classic is worth any of your time or money if Blizzard has no passion and doesn't care about the Classic WoW community.

I think Syturio is referring to the forum features specifically. Classic is another thing though and if they bring back the old forums they could prove quite to be popular.

I dont know where the blizzard hate comes from. Any officially moderated platform will almost always be worse than something fanmade as the former has to be inclusive. If a complete dickhead comes around we can call him a turd and thats it. If you do that on an official platform its you who is fucked. Because even if the mods see and think that you are right, they cant say it. They have to cater to the turd, whether they like it or not.
It is not Blizzards fault. Its the age of the hypersensitive and of victimization, where being right or wrong is a mere banality compared to calling dips on being oppressed. And I am not talking about any specific political or social group, before you get any wrong ideas. It is an omnipresent phenomenon.

Sorry for turning this into a rant, this wasnt my intention.

I agree with that part - the official classic forums are rarely worth visiting. His comment gave me the impression that his complaint was more overarching.

Yeah, I think this is accurate. To be honest, we need the official forums for the health of the community. The whiners and the trolls gravitate to it, and it helps keep them off fan communities like Barrens Chat. Imagine if Blizzard closed down their forums? Many of the whiners and trolls would try to find other outlets. It might start with Reddit @ r/classicwow, and from there they may even find a link to this site. The horror!

Say it isn't true rijndael!! :sad:

Barrens Chat will be hub of classic community hopefully. blizz forums suck ass
