White Raven earring given out at The Rising event 2018

[Vaer]

People will be spiteful especially with partially misdirected comments. It does also help to know when people are and aren't being sarcastic. Whether the items are given out like freebies or not is something nobody even knows so it's just too early to even sprout that.

Granted people spent effort on it, and potentially lost sleep or booked time off work to complete the content, but that remains true for anything. People spent massive volumes of time completing former raid tiers, for their items, mount and so fourth, for people to what? Come along, unsync it, nuke the bosses down like mechanics are irrelevant. Old items, you'll still have the memories associated with them, and of the encounter itself. We don't have that, and that takes precedence over some earrings that most people have only ever stored in their retainer.

Both sides are guilty of this. What did you expect was going to happen when people called it "just earrings," "just pixels", "it's just a game, lol" basically making fun of people. Come on now. Just go re-read the first two pages, where people are explaining why they are upset, mostly reasonable and a suggestion (I mean it's literally renaming it, with the glamour still being released), and the other side literally making fun of them.

Former raid tiers is a moot comparison, as they never said they were going away like the 1.2x content. You're doing what you're accusing other people of doing, like comparing the ravens to ultimate which of course isn't the same either since right now they are not indicated to be removed from the game. After the first time unsyncing stuff it is to be expected now so people go into it knowing that sometime down the line people will faceroll it.

I'm surprised this thread didn't get cleansed yet.
