It is quite obvious, when the moderators,cannot find any other way to reverse your opinion (much more if your opinion is documented and they have nothing to say about it), the only thing they can do, is to lock the thread. They think the problems will pass away.
Dear moderator mercy, let me inform you that hitler have already died, and fascism is hunted down.
Let me remind you, that blizzard never disabled the herb gathering while in flight form on druids where first introduced since TBC.
On the contrary, to give balance in game (nonexisted balance) they activated herb gathering while flying on specific mounts in pandaria.
So, the disabled herb gathering while in flight form on druids, is NOT working as intended because blizzard never disabled it.
