That’s okay. I’m not demanding they revert the changes since this is obviously something they feel strongly about, but I wanted to at least voice that I am at least one person who now doesn’t want to play a pet class anymore.

Appreciate the server still. Thank you.
You can see pet health anytime with "/pet health" and make a button for it... or build it into your buttons for the other commands.

Just think, at some point the Devs talked about removing Pet Windows and limiting Hot Bars, and I'm sure there was talk about how pissed off everyone would be.

They still decided to implement it regardless of how their playerbase felt, and how many people would leave because they greatly reduced the playability of the game that people have been playing for years now.

People can harp on the "OMG ITS CLASSIC" bs, but that argument is becoming ridiculous. This server is not classic. It's not even close. Yeah, its got that "classic feel", but it is not classic, and this change doesn't make people say "OMG No pet window, and limited hotbars!! I totally have to play that server!!". It actually just alienates the playerbase and makes them choose to play other games. (incoming people yelling "It's not classic, its beta for classic, blah blah blah)

I'm sure the timing was thought about based on Green "launching" next month. "Well, we can piss everyone off by making that change we had talked about, but it will be negated a month later when we release green. And that is why the patch notes also included another hint that Green is coming next month. This is a pretty big mis-step in keeping players at the same time WoW Classic came out and players are already leaving.

For me it's not a "clicking pet commands issue" it's knowing when to heal my pet without needing to CLICK ON MY PET and then tabing back to the mob(s) or gate if shit is going south too fast. Furthermore, why the hell does it seem like so many people care so much who uses clicks for controlling their pet? If you don't like it then just use hot keys and turn off the pet window. What's wrong with personal preference, and why must you force your will on every one else?

Rogean/Nilbog have stated many times that they don't care if you play or not, they're going to recreate classic EverQuest as best they can. Your cries of "but my pet window/hotbars" are falling on deaf ears. Adjust or move on. I hear Classic WoW is out.

My two cents: It's not that it made playing a necro easier, which it did, but the pet window made playing the class fun. I like classic, but I like fun more. I'd like to see the pet window come back.
