Split World of Warcraft retail and classic addons into their own separate game selections Merged

I don't know why CurseForge feedback brought me here. This is feedback for CursForge not Overwolf. WoW and Starcraft are two separate games on the "browse" screen, obviously. WoW and WoW Classic(WotLK) should be also. The addons for these two games are not interchangeable, and some are not clearly marked retail or classic. Shouldn't have to search for addons for two different games stuffed in one place. It's confusing and time consuming.

    I support this idea of actively separating them avidly. The thing just misdetected my retail beta-PTR (for 10.1) as classic (because it's called ptr2 with no hinting) even though I do already have the beta-PTR for classic

    With the horrifying result that I can't back out its detection, I can't "change it to the other" in the settings UI on Curseforge, and now I have to be afraid it effed up my game's beta area, so, I can't dare let Curseforge source my beta's mods.

    I can see why it currently buckets them together though, since Blizzard has all the WoW types (I presently have 6) under one giant subdirectory.
