Let me start off with saying that I in no means think Aerythlea has an easy job here, or that I (and I'm sure others) underappreciate her efforts for our community. That being said next time Aerythlea makes a derisive remark on the interwebs I hope she will take the effort read the rest of the conversation, for the fun of a little context.
Just to be clear; I was talking(the disinterest and malice part) about the seperation of english speakers and english speakers within the wow community. I personally think the label malice here is justified ever since we got a glimpse of how the devs culture's view on the eu community; we're face palming picard monkeys with no possibility for worthwhile insights- we should be kept in our cages well clear from the 'always constructive' us forums. (if you missed it, our current Game Director's views on the EU community can be seen here in a fun 10th anniversary celebratory video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4d3M6N5vMoQ&feature=youtu.be&t=51m12s ). A sentiment that is judging by the utter lack of developers ever visiting these forums still present.
As for disinterest? Not on Aerythleas part, surely, but from blizzard as a whole I think that's a fair assessement , both myself (http://eu.battle.net/forums/en/wow/topic/17612252191?page=1 ) and many others (a list so long its best left to google: https://www.google.nl/search?q=merge+eu+us+forums+site:eu.battle.net&rlz=1C1CHFX_nlNL564NL564&espv=2&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwi3-LL86PXPAhVL5xoKHUSCBiwQrQIIKCgEMAA&biw=1511&bih=968 ) have made many a post without a reply. Now I know this is the communication policy, but seeing the breath and scope of the posts I find saying theres a disinterest in this subject more than fair.
We (/ I) simply want to talk about wow things, it's what unites us on these forums and it frustrates me (and judging by the amount of posts others aswell) that we're limited in this for archaic reasons we have to think up ourselves.
Tl;dr my reaction was not about blizzards' approach to patch notes, (I find that saying releasing the patchnotes early confuses players a weak argument, especially considering the consistency of wednesday updates since.. pretty much forever.. and y know, how they release the patchnotes in the us before it's released there.. but alas, I'm sure you know such things better than me.) I was however talking about the english EU/US forums still being split in 2016.
