I heard thousands of people in kara level guilds all are quitting the game because they might run out of badge rewards some day. Sure, they could put in a bit more time and effort and do ZA, join a guild doing t5 stuff, but they'd rather just quit? That's pretty comparable.

I'm still a little disgusted that after waves and waves of complaints about how blizzard is making it too easy for casual (usually using the word casual to mean bad, not actually casual) players to get pve gear, that people now are complaining that it might be a fraction as hard to get good pvp items. If you put as much time into arenas as peopel do into pve, you'd almost be able to get 1700 by accident just by eventually getting enough games where the opponents DCed or something.

Also, people are completely misunderstanding how the points are working. Once a team falls from 1500 to 1300 or wahtever, they're not continuing to pump more points into the system. If everyone under 1800 suddenly quit, its not like the teams at 2k magically become 1600 teams. Besides, people always have bad alts to use to pump more points into the system.
