Heh, I have learned from years of experience if something wrong, I will have to fix it - or it won't get fixed.

That's what I'm getting at here - the state your UI is in should be the major factor on how often you update.

Yes, that is what I agreed with fataal about. I have addons years old, which seem to do the trick.
Generally when there is a new patch (always a horror when there is a new patch because it might break addons which can't be updated), i test it all out on the ptr, and if something is not working i try and see if i can find a replacement.
But as you say, if its working then its working.
Of course. If one of your addons is causing a problem then you fix it. If your UI is spraying red errors on the screen then seeking updates in usaully a very good step you can take as often bugs are fixed in a later build.
But if you haven't changed anything on your UI and everything's working fine then you should not have to update at all.[/quote]
