Shadowlands Delayed - No Longer Oct 25 Release
Short and sweet, but this is honestly a great thing. Lots of broken stuff still untouched and unfixed. Also, prepatch on the 13th.
Times banned from World of Warcraft: 1
Reason for ban: Reporting an item duplication exploit with Pet Battles I accidentally found during Mists of Pandaria. 3 week duration.

Re: Shadowlands Delayed - No Longer Oct 25 Release
As excited as I am for the expansion, and as much as I was looking forward to a Halloween season release, it was becoming clear that there was so much they still needed to work on and they were quickly running out of time. This must have been a hard fight they put up and I want to support their decision in doing it, because I'm sure this will result in a better game for us, and hopefully a more relaxed workload for them.
Kudos for them making the call, I imagine it wasn't easy, but it was the right thing to do. I'm also glad that I'll have time to enjoy the prepatch now instead of feeling like I have to rush through it in a week or two. Let's give it some breathing room.

I was also overjoyed to see the outpouring of support and love for Blizzard staff as a result of this announcement. The response has been overwhelmingly positive.
I do feel for anyone who booked leave from work but now can’t cancel it, but I hope that most can. Aside from that there seems to have been few complaints, other than in the kinds of places that the extreme complainers tend to concentrate.
Finally, as a site owner, I’m selfishly relieved that I have more time Despite even having such amazing help in compiling the Shadowlands database it’s still a lot of work and there are still many unknowns. Plus, Warcraft Mounts on top of that

I admit, selfish me is hoping they fix the 'taming bug' in raids/instances as there's *so many* creatures in the various dungeons/raids I want to tame badly. However, selfish me is also *aware* he's being selfish and that it's not the most important thing for them to fix. I'm going to hold out hope, but by and large not going to be too upset about it, as I suspect there are way bigger bugs and imbalances to fix (unless the instance taming bug is part of a bigger bug, and fixing that bigger bug fixes the tames....)

Joking aside, I'm among the ones who are relieved. We got a prepatch date and this feels like the old Blizzard. \o/ Although, part of me feels like they were fighting some higher ups or someone to get it delayed.
NEW SIGNATURE PENDING... SOON.

I definitely got the same impression because of how long the weird silence was for a while, when otherwise their communication has actually improved a lot surrounding this expansion. I suspect the past few weeks involved a lot of meetings which is why they weren't able to be more clear with their intentions because they didn't have an answer yet for us.

Re: Shadowlands Delayed - No Longer Oct 25 Release
Now I just wonder when it will release, because there's some issues with some dates, as if they follow their 2 weeks rule before releasing the first raid, it might actually not work really well because it could land too close or on top of the holidays. I think their best solution is to not follow the 2 weeks rule and release it somewhere before the holidays and release the raid in January, so even if it gives out 3 or 4 weeks before the raid comes out it's not too bad, since a lot of people will just not play at all during those 2 holiday weeks.

It seems to be hard to find, but I think you need this link: https://battle.net/support/help/wf/wow/166/1152
If that is for North America, try adding "eu.' to the front.
