Stop the WoWificaton (ui mods)

This is a positive! Gives you a giant red flag of who to stay away from, because those are bad players, looking to blame everyone but themselves for their failures.

While I actively despise cactbot and wish this were the case, one of said groups was run by someone who had hit top 10 in all 3 ultimates. His requirement stemmed from his perception that it would make his UCOB reprog smoother.

The only portion of the player base who cares about "meta" is the toxic casual part (most of the people commenting on this thread).

The high end, or "Elite" raid scene in the game don't care about addons. Don't care about "meta". Meta groups have never and will never be a thing among the "Elite" end of the playerbase.

It's possible that the culture of the raiding scene is different over on EU, but this isn't really accurate to my experiences in NA. People do care about the meta, though it's typically restricted to speedkills and Ultimate. I run into plenty of high-end players that circlejerk about the meta in discord, and have been told on multiple occasions by top-tier players that my job choice in a level 70 ultimate is 'tantamount to griefing'.

It's by no means a widespread problem, but it definitely exists among some groups of otherwise good players.
