Blizzard trying its hardest to nerf World of Warcraft. This time, emotes are cut and changed -

From their 9.1.5 patch notes.. https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/t/ptr-915-development-notes/1082616/17


- Drool, cough, burp, fart, whistle, spit, and moon no longer change when used while targeting a player.
- Pounce and groan have been adjusted when used while targeting a player.
- 4 new emotes have been added – Huzzah, magnificent, impressed, and wince.
- Kick, stink, shake, and moan have been removed.
- Developers’ note: Some of these emotes seem to have harmless intentions at a glance, but when used while targeting another player, their intentions can turn unexpectedly suggestive or intrusive. We’ve made adjustments to these emotes with negative connotations towards another player, while also adding a few new ones.


Small thing. But these have been in the same since I started playing and as a long time player this rubs me the wrong way (no pun intended). On the bright side they are buffing Night Fae covenant for rogues lol. Too little too late for that one I think xP

This is them just avoiding their core issue (treating their staff like shit/ignoring what the players actually want), but my next bet is them going onwards to changing "sexually seductive" outfits. I'll lose my shit if they decide to change those up, or worse, the character models in general (I know back in Mists that they had a bug that made pandaren player models naked underneath the outfits). 

Honestly its all a bunch of tosh. Just reading those patch note feels like its written by an average Resetera poster. Sad how one of my favourite gaming companies goes to trash. Its like Konami, where they just pissed away all their good will and legacy.
