Comment by uriahworld“Enjoying the joys of others and suffering with them - these are the best guides for man”Comment by AislingeWoot! Bookmarked! Cheers guys!Comment by mcwoodId think there would be more comments considering this will make finding certain things on the website much easier... as much fun as reading 100+ comments to a certain thing IS.

Well if there was a like or thumbs up button I would've pushed it >.>Comment by 440372Will there be a guide to making guides?Comment by deathbeyondId think there would be more comments considering this will make finding certain things on the website much easier... as much fun as reading 100+ comments to a certain thing IS.

Atleast I know that works better for me than sorting through a guide for usefull tidbits that I may not already know.Comment by AsheliaId think there would be more comments considering this will make finding certain things on the website much easier... as much fun as reading 100+ comments to a certain thing IS.

I didn't say that the guides themselves aren't useful to other players looking for information. I just personally have little use for them. On the positive for all the creators of the guides, they are, by and large, well written and thought out. They just aren't needed by the majority of players. Even the newer players I see around say they(read majority, not ALL) ask questions before reading a huge posted guide. Saves them time and gets them specific detailed information for the most part.

I do however apologize if my comment seemed biased against them. It was not meant to be taken as such.Comment by AsheliaAwesome feature, but I'm so sad about Wowhead being kinda dead, atleast compared to LK days, when I was very active around here. Look at this thread alone, big announcement and this is the 9th reply...

I hope these features will bring Wowhead back to its former glory :)Comment by InterestWill there be a guide to making guides?Comment by Runawaynow"...users who write guides will find themselves with more perks..."Comment by deathbeyondIt was just a statement on my thought of the lack of comments.

It was not meant to be taken as such.Either way this topic isn't about what's best for users of the guides, it's about the new feature for Wowhead, which as I said is a good feature, just may not be the biggest and best around. Sorry for bringing my thoughts on the use of the guides into it. Dropping the subject. ^^Comment by pezzIt's still refusing to show me any comments on a guide half the time. Which confuses me somewhat when I'm looking at a guide I've commented on.Comment by lankybritId think there would be more comments considering this will make finding certain things on the website much easier... as much fun as reading 100+ comments to a certain thing IS.
