Seriously, why are we renaming the spell? Hysteria is a bad word? Who is this offending? Women? The reason why hysteria was removed from the psychology lexicon was that it was too general. Psychologists found the symptoms were so widespread among women that it became pointless to document them as a disease altogether... lmao
I will never understand this...
Def Leppard would disagree....
Personally would have called it something like "Blood Frenzy" considering it's fairly deep in the Blood tree right now, but w/e.
The only thing missing that would make me go to play more on 'Classic' servers would be the addition of the HD character models + customisation options + transmogrification feature + collection feature we have on retail.
They changed the spell name because someone got hysterical and couldn't control their volatile emotions, overdramatic, and attention-seeking behaviour. Woko-haram is basically in charge there now - don't be surprised if there aren't more changes.Staggeringly stupid change, as nobody is truly offended by it unless they are an actual narcicisst.
Can someone at wowhead ask if they will add the name change feature? Seems to make sense with a gender swap
inclusion? hahahahaha. Show me one sane person who thinks hysteria is a word only applied to women.. what a hysterical change.
Ah yes, the old surefire way to make a game better: changing names for ideological reasons. And they wonder why the game is dying. The only people playing are old fans of the franchise who (like me) are too addicted and have way too much time invested in the game to just quit. Everybody else sees this descent into madness and decides to stay the hell away from the company.
If it is Classic WOTLK, why are they CONSTANTLY changing things? Same for Classic WOW, Classic BC and now this. At least 40-50+ minor and a dozen bigger changes for every classic. We cant go back in time. The only people that want changes are those that will burn through content and then complain and quit. Focus on the players that want Classic to actually be Classic.Then again, I cannot wait until classics are over and they put vanilla content back into the REAL WOW. Oh well.
For a bunch of rugged individualists, these people get rather uptight about something getting renamed. Kinda triggered it seems.
I'm ok with the change because it was a change that happened in Cata.
I wonder if these explanations come from actual women, and if so - do they realize how weak and fragile it makes women look, to throw in such a meager nod at inclusive behavior from Blizzard.Please tell me I'm not the only one who sees through this BS.
Sad sad society these days ...
