If you're tempted to make a new thread whining about DoTs, comment on one of the existing ones

Seriously, I have never seen one minor section of the playerbase spam the forums so hard before. We get it, you don't like the current state of dots. Having 40 threads about it doesn't add anything new to the discussion. As both a PvEer and PvPer, I look at all these indignant threads and find it hard to explain to other PvEers that PvPers aren't just a bunch of toxic whiners that the game would be better off without. So just stop with the "Nerf DoTs now!" threads. If you're a PvPer who hates the DoTs right now, just comment on one of the existing threads whining about them. Spamming the forums is pointless, and hurts the cause far more than it helps it.

    There's already a thread about keeping the DoT threads in one thread. Please keep your complaints in the replies of that thread :smiley:

    Isn't this the fifth "Don't Open Another Thread About DOTS?" thread, or is it the second?

    Better than the 20th “NERF DOTS NAOW” thread 🙄

    At present, there are two threads calling out the spamming, and dozens whining about DoTs. Not even close to equivalent.

    They're getting locked, just as I imagine this thread will as it serves no real purpose.

    Indeed, but this simple fact will zoom right over the heads of the type of mentality at play here unfortunately.

    In a few days the nerf herd will move on to new Onslaught, guaranteed, or Snipe, or...

    Hello everyone,

    With the mass of dots showing up on the forum recap, we're going to start closing down a mass of these threads. We'll leave this current discussion open on the topic so feel free to discuss the topic there.

    Thank you for understanding!
