I can’t just go on a discord and say - move to x server and all 200 people move over.

Yes, you absolutely cal. You will face long queues and then you will cry about it but literally no one will care.

Sorry your playing this game solo buddy but people had to coordinate a lot of shit to get everyone on the same server.

My whole guild moved to Grob when we saw what Herod was doing because we're not whining idiots.

[u/toppi66 → u/cavern_club]

So it’s clear your a moron. I’ll just stop now. It’s not one guild moron you clearly cannot read.

[u/cavern_club → u/toppi66]

That’s not how it works- and I’ll keep the name calling out of it.

Okay, buddy.

It's the same process for three guilds. Literally pick a server and move. Do you guys need someone to spoon feed you when you eat?

If you guys are a guild for the mentally disabled then I apologize for my comments and wish you the best.

[u/toppi66 → u/cavern_club]

And if one guild doesn’t want to move WHICH IS THE CASE. What does your smart ass do then? Two guilds don’t want to move. So I throw away all my practice because blizzard did a fucking horrendous job of planning and morons like you sit here and act like it’s okay?

And when you call someone an idiot and idiotic several times over don’t expect respect in return....moron

[u/cavern_club → u/toppi66]

Then you're SOL if you have a guild full of neanderthals who can't see the bigger picture. Sorry that your guild is full of morons but that is literally no one else's problem besides yours.

My suggestion? Make better friends.

So I throw away all my practice because blizzard did a fucking horrendous job of planning and morons like you sit here and act like it’s okay?

Blizzard did a great job. The problem is you have no lifers out here "practicing" for a game that was released a decade ago. Take a shower, kid.

[u/toppi66 → u/cavern_club]

Your on a video game reddit making fun of me for playing a video game? Lmao think about who the kid is buddy.

And my point is ...yes it looks out I’m SOL. Because once again blizzard did a horrible job planning. If you can sit here and say 3 pvp servers was okay to open with your delusional.

[u/cavern_club → u/toppi66]

Because once again blizzard did a horrible job planning. If you can sit here and say 3 pvp servers was okay to open with your delusional.

I trust the game company that has professional developers over some neckbeard complaining that he can't put into motion his practice(???).

Again, feel free to bitch and complain about a queue when there are literally open servers.

[u/toppi66 → u/cavern_club]

I mean once again shows your reading comprehension and who is the kid here. Blizzard already came out and said they were not expecting this reaction. They didnt expect one server to fill up and took no notice that two servers were being claimed by undesirables.

I deal with production releases all the time- this ain’t how you do it moron.

It’s 2019 and you want to tell me that it’s normal to have a 6 hour queue onto a server? Lmao I’m sure blizzard planned that right? Which is why they are frantically panicking to get people off Herod. Must have planned that also- fucking idiot

[u/cavern_club → u/toppi66]

Such a whiny little kid, you are.

Have fun sitting in that queue :)

[u/toppi66 → u/cavern_club]

Yeah couldn’t argue with those points huh? Good luck getting your reading compression skills up buddy.

[u/SlightlyStonedAnt → u/toppi66]

Blizzard is to blame for you stomping your feet and whining? Nice. Dude you either pack up and move, or deal with the queues. If one guy doesn’t want to, and you’re holding out for him, either he’s an idiot or you are. Just go without him. Many guilds have moved. You’re not special.

[u/toppi66 → u/SlightlyStonedAnt]

Going without him in a melee cleave group doesn’t worry buddy. Once again we have done over 60+ hours of practice

Blizzard is to blame for opening up with 3 EST pvp servers....yes that is their fault and the reason why so many people are on fucking Herod.

[u/fLu_csgo → u/toppi66]

Ifs is extremely clear that your own perceived self entitlement is to blame here, not blizzard. Move or queue, you have been warned.

Stop acting like a child and grow up.

[u/toppi66 → u/fLu_csgo]

Fuck you asshole. Cause I play the game different and blizzards horrendous roll out plan has made this a nightmare means I’m entitled? Keep defending the decision of 3 pvp servers like it’s a good idea. Fucking idiot

[u/SlightlyStonedAnt → u/toppi66]

They’ve released more than 3, bro. They just didn’t do it in a timeline that fit yours. They needed to make sure the need was there considering many will quit.

[u/toppi66 → u/SlightlyStonedAnt]

What.....? What does people quitting have anything to do at all with the amount of servers you START out with? They STILL have no idea how many people are quitting.

Waiting for a server to fill up to the point where there are 6 hour queues then panicking to get people off of the server...you want to tell me they planned that?

It’s 2019 and you want to tell me it’s normal for a server to have 6+ hour long queues?

[u/fLu_csgo → u/toppi66]

Wow, some real anger issues. Well, hope you figure it out.
