I really hope Blizzard sticks to their guns. Bashiok's post was 100% on the money, and I'm glad the developers are finally taking a hard look at fixing some of the decisions they made in the past that really weren't good for the health of the game. Overall, I'm optimistic about the expansion. But they have to stick to their guns on decisions like this -- if they reverse course and decide to pander by giving back flying, it'll be really disappointing for players like me.
