    You're the reason they didn't let us right-click > blacklist people in 2.0, because they thought we'd be stupid enough to blacklist our friends.

    Seeing how some people are, I wouldn't be surprised if they did so.

    Even if they did, you can undo a blacklist. You can't undo a roll.

    Now, it makes sense that they don't want you to be able to cancel a roll and re-roll again, but they can just let you change a roll to a pass. It's not much of a change to leave the Pass button active and have it override the Need/Greed result. Heck, they could let you stage down to change a Need roll to a re-roll on Greed and a Greed roll to a pass, or just go straight to pass.

    I almost always pause and roll/pass on everything in the first 10 seconds, so if someone wanted a specific drop, or if they had asked and I forgot, I can't change my roll to let them have it. Sure it's my error, but I'm not the one it's a problem for.

    They thought people were too stupid to be able to type /away when they come back to the keyboard. They don't believe that summoner should have any added complexity because people will not be able to play a challenging class. This game is designed for the lowest common denominator.

    And he's right, most summoners are god horrid at the job and it's not that hard of a job either. The thing he didn't mention is that most of you criticizing him for thinking that people are too terrible is that it's been proven time and times again on this forum that you people have zero clue about how balance works in a MMO and how a total rework of a class that works perfectly as is would be a stupid thing to do when you weight the pros and cons of it.That and if you've ever step foot in SCoB, you'd see real quick how a pet centric class would be a pain to balance. But go ahead, continue criticizing him, it just means the irony is lost on you and it makes it hilarious for the people who've got a basic grasp of the reality of how MMOs works.

    And how would adding such a basic feature hinder your gameplay in any way ?

    They also made sure to have easy to level class to make sure it wouldn't be too hard to get the good cross-class skills but that didn't prevent you from not getting Virus or Eye for an Eye on a White Mage.
