    Blind WoW player no longer able to play because of 5.2

    I found this pretty interesting and well worth the share:

    Blind discrimination in BGs - Forums - World of Warcraft

    What do you guys think? Now that /follow no longer works in Battlegrounds this blind man can no longer play... Do you think Blizzard will revert it back?

    I want them too because I'm a multiboxer... I can no longer play because of this... Someone make a bot that just follows someone and I will pay 40$ for it.

    How can he target a person to /follow then?
    And how can he target hordes to dps or allies to heal if hes blind?
    How can he even queue for BGs if hes blind?

    Macros, addons that make funny noises, ears.
    And yeah I guess they'll need some help to set all these things up. Afrer that they can sell their screen and save some power.

    This isn't to stick it to the blind people, but is to kill the follow bots in BG's, and even multi-boxers.

    Players have been complaining about bots / multi-boxers long enough, and Blizzard finally did something that will reduce them. Good thing is that it won't cut out good bots like Honorbuddy, but assuage player's QQ. Welcome change in my books.

    This is a huge kick in the balls to me. Not going to lie im a relatively wealthy man, and am willing to pay some extra to get the most out of my hobbies (WoW). Used to multibox 1 hpally 9 frost dks in WSG and other bgs. Nowadays im debating whether or not to sell the accounts or not... Hope someone can develop a differant follow method, or bliz takes some into consideration

    Anyways: This topic has all my support, Aswell as refunki (the blind wow player!)

    multiplayer means multiple players, not multiple characters controlled by one player. it makes perfect sense for them to make this change imo.
