A: This game is about money. It's a time-sink for the players who pay their monthly fee for Blizzard to make money on. It's a business. Never forget that.
B: Petitions won't make spit to Blizzard. If you want to vote negatively, quit the game and take away your money, if you truly think enough of you will quit to make Blizz change their ways. Talking about doing anything else will change nothing. Quitting will probably change nothing, except you won't be playing the game and complaining. You just won't be playing.
C: see A
D: see A

Those are issues with my own hard/software I know but I think I still have a legitimit gripe about the game. I find it hard to believe anyone here is happy about those known bugs being implemented. The problem as I see it is that they have a bunch of screaming yokels on the official boards crying FIX IT NOW FIX IT NOW OR I QUIT. What i'm proposing is that a bunch of more level headed folks get togeather and say "don't fix it now, fix it right"
This isn't an isolated incedent its a pattern of one bug being traded for another one or even two that were often discovered in testing. I know bugs are going to get through undetected, thats inevitable but thats even more reason to fix the ones you know about before they go live.
I even understand that sometimes a minor bug might have to be let through to fix something major but that ought to be explained to us "we don't know why A is happening but we had to leave it for now in order to fix B"
I dont want to quit the game. as a whole I find it an enjoyable time-sink but i need to think as time goes by it's many problems are getting better. steps sidways or backwards chip away at that enjoyment. Am I alone here?
