Do Not Want

I were lookin' through the notes overs on mmo-champion from one of the T&A sessions at BlizzCon, an' I done saw this puppy:

"The team can make one click milling and prospecting if it is something players want."

If we want? If we want??!?

Lemme explain you, Blizz. We plays this game fer funs. Is why we be here, payin' out subscriptions month afters month. We wants our fun. Is be our mode and modus. An' there ain't nuthin - I means nuthin' - what be more fun than:

*click spell*

Seriouslies, Blizz, whyfuhg would anybodies want fer ta replace that with:


*click spell*

Thems of us what be inscriptions gives ourselves blisters milling hundreds of herbs a week because is what we wants. Clickin' the same things over an' an' over' an' over be our mode an' modus. It be our central kick. Is how we like it. Ain't nobodies wants fer ta go ta a better way jus' cause it'd make sense. That way lies madness.

Listen ta yer players, Blizz. Don' be gettin' all radicals and dumbin' down the game. If'n we wanted ya ta change it, we'd be writin' blog posts or sumthin'.

I remember, waaaaay back in the day (and you probably do, too) when there was an add-on that allowed just that: Select a stack of ore, click, and it would be prospected four times. Or click a recipe (heal pot, anyone?) and say how many, click, and go get a cup of joe. Come back, and lo! there's a couple stacks of Healing Potions. Then Blizz broke that capability, so we could better enjoy the repetitive motion injuries. Or something.
