You leave the thread and we'll moderate the forums. Sound good?

^ These do nothing to contribute to the thread.

In answering your one substantive post:

Their burst potential is really no more higher than other DPS classes, and much less for a UA lock. A destro lock still won't rival the burst of shatter combos and frost mages have significantly more defenses.

And ask any melee and I'm sure they'll quickly disagree that Fire Mages are easier to kill than Affliction/Destro locks.

People find your requests ridiculous and completely unwarranted. Most of the requests were general buffs with no mention of nerfs aside from 1 or 2 people out of the entire thread admitting that SL is too good. This thread does nothing to contribute to Elitist Jerks. "Wishful thinking" threads such as this belong on the WoW forums, plain and simple. This thread provides no documentation to show the difference in damage dealt, mitigation, or any form of proof that Warlocks could use buffing. Most of the Warlocks keep making broad generalizations and wild claims that look like your standard self-serving WoW forum poster. I am sorry if there are 1 or 2 people in this thread with a decent head on their shoulders, but take a close look at the claims/requests coming from some of these people and tell me this thread actually deserves to exist on these boards. In the end, what this thread looks to be is someone wishing their high DPS raid spec were viable for arena. Unfortunately, just about all classes' raid and PvP specs do not match up, so you will not find people sympathetic to your cause.

And as for your comment about Fire Mages, I can rip through one in about 6 seconds with my Hunter. Doing the same to an Affliction lock is simply not possible unless they have no clue how to play (or abuse line of sight like all good warlocks).
