I have been playing WoW for 8 years. I was there when WoW went live. There have been a few things over the years that Blizzard has implemented in the game that I did not like, but I stuck with it because I loved and still love the brand. Recently Blizzard introduced Cross Realm Zones. This has made far too many players unhappy for many reasons. Please sign this petition if you would like Blizzard to remove the Cross Realm Zone feature completely and entirely from the game World of Warcraft.
Please sign the petition if since the CRZ implementation has occured you have experienced:
Rubber band effect when changing zones
Time changes between zones that affect your gameplay in a negative way
Quest waiting that has affected your game play in a negative way
Time zone differences that have affected your game play IE fishing tournament
Griefing
The inability to report griefers due to this play does not exists error message
In game Harassment due to CRZ
Difficulty locating nodes due to Node sharing without respawn increase
Difficulty locating rare spawns due to zone shifting (you saw it until you landed on the ground and then it was gone)
Crowding in areas that were previously uncrowded or manageable
Disconnects
Lag issue when shifting into zones
Time shifting lags (screen switching from day to night instantly due to time zone realm crossing)
Falling to your death after changing zones and auto dismounting
These are but a few of the complaints. We as players in World of Warcraft do not want the CRZ option. We would like it removed from the game completely and entirely. We would like it removed before Mists of Pandaria is released.
Reaching this point in our campaign feels surreal given how many people dismissed our concerns early on. It has been an exhausting road but seeing so many of you acknowledge the damage these zones have done to our community keeps me going.

It is the major thing that destroyed WoW. It doesnt feel like a "World" anymore. Just a series of pigeon holed mini-games that you teleport too.

I remember a time when I could log onto Wyrmrest Accord and actually roleplay in Goldshire. I can't do that anymore Blizzard. It is swarmed with people from servers that are known for the sheer amount of trolls they have. This has destroyed my immersion, not improved it.

Too many troll role- players .. serious role players are almost unable to do their own things in peace

Questing in old zones is a nightmare now. You cant finish anything because people from other realms just swoop in and steal all the mobs. Bring back my server community.

Ever since this CRZ stuff started I get disconnected every time I cross a zone line. It is literally unplayable and ruins the immersion.
