Return of Reckoning

Think a time delay would help , especially considering there is a web version of sor

I think a delay would work too if 15 mins. As someone above posted.

I'd just forsee a rise of zonepop addon...

I agree with you guys! Having the addon turned off or limited (doesn’t show numbers, only activity) would make a lot of interesting fights and the need for organization would have to be bigger.

Well could always do something with the interface sor uses and zone pop
Limit in refresh to x mins on Therese interfaces

Pfft, if you want this removed you might as well petition for Discord to be removed as well. And all chat functions. People aren't going to stop communicating where the main battle is at, SoR just streamlines it.

Where the fight is is fine, but SoR/ZonePop gives far more detailed information than is reasonable IMO.

It is my understanding that all Zonepop/SoR does is use functionalities that are already built into the game engine. So all that you would be really doing by getting rid of them would be to limit that information to players who know how to write a macro, type in the proper commands or code their own custom addon. Seems to me this would give those players an unfair advantage...

Well, it would be a matter of disabling those API calls so that no one can access them. You can't force update the addons, so the only way to disable them is to disable the functions they use to get the data.

Can that be done without also disabling them for the GM's as well? If not, I doubt the dev team would look favorably on their tool-set being hamstrung.

As an aside, one of the reasons I'm wouldn't be in favor of SoR being removed/delayed is the fact that I personally use it to see where the smaller fights are. I look for the zones that I think will be the most fun, preferably ones where I will have AAO in order to maximize the renown I earn. Not everyone flocks to the zergfest zone, some of us try to avoid it.
