Don't whine.

While it may be cathartic for you to sit down and pour out your inner turmoil about the horrible catastrophes wrought upon your class by the patch, or in the expansion, no one wants to read that, nor do such posts ever serve as a basis for fruitful discussion. Take those posts to the WoW class forums where they'll fit right in. Readers should feel free to report posts that read like irrational whines about perceived or real nerfs.

No one is saying you can't complain, but try to be objective and analytical about it. That doesn't mean you need to spew a page of math whenever you post, but there's a big difference between "this talent really isn't any good because it's useless in situations X and Y, and only mediocre in situation Z" and "this is bullshit if Blizzard wants to gut my class like this they should offer free rerolls." Ok?

Oh, and this also goes for idiots from other classes who go into class threads primarily to antagonize the posters without contributing to the discussion. If I see another "qq more warriors, you needed to be nerfed" post (hopefully not in those precise words) I'm going to break something. Or ban someone. Whichever seems easier at the time. Seriously, why would you go into a thread directed at players of a given class, facilitating discussion of that class, solely to troll them? Don't.
