You should think about posting this on the WoW forums, this little whine would be best placed there.

Original Post:

Why do I play wow?
I don't know anymore, I guess I am just trying to make one of every damn character in the game and get them to 70 while I wait for WotLK.

I couple of things that I see as a problem in regards to these issues:

#1 Dear Blizzard,
Thanks for completely screwing up the attunement process. I am so glad that you guys put an attunement system in place and then removed half of it after people have started to progress. I know that made me feel great after doing the ENTIRE quest line, only to see that "family orientated, multi-mmo guild" summoning people in Netherstorm a few weeks later.

#2 I think some of the problem and the lack of an "epic" raiding environment arises from the sheer number of retards that can rope 25ppl together and kill Gruul and Void Reaver. 40 people was harder to organize, took a bit more PvE knowledge and put somewhat of a restriction on the amount of raiding guilds on a server. In a way it prevented a lot of non raiding guilds from doing heavy endgame content. Now in TBC I see guilds like "It Burns when I PvP" killing bosses in TK (no matter how easy the boss is).

#3 Why are PvP and PvE so very segregated, yet my MT and that one MS warrior on that arena team appear to have the same gear? That in my opinion is crap. In Vanilla, My MT looked like a bad ass that could get the crap beat out of him by insane Bosses, and that one MS warrior looked like he could absolutely murder the #@*% out of anything in his path. Can we please get the "creative" team at blizzard new jobs at starbucks? I know how to use MS Paint and would be happy to come down to Irvine and present some new ideas.

I honestly feel the wow raiding scene has become to easy and anyone that can mash 3 buttons can get into some decent content. How the hell does a guild in Kara gear kill Illidan?!? Could a guild in ZG gear clear Naxx??? I was personally very disappointed when TBC came out and I was in line at the store to get my copy, and realized the AV afker behind me was going to be on a level playing field with me.

I am, however, looking forward to WotLK in hopes of another "cleaning of the slate". I hope Blizzard can give us back that epic feel, that feeling is the reason I still play wow. Unfortunately, just like real life, it is bad to hold on to the idea of something that once was. WotLK is Blizzards opportunity to fix the PvE scene. From everything that I have read (including apologies for TBC from C. Metzen) it looks like they do know there is a lot of issues, and they due intend to address them. Until then, I will continue to farm a bazillion gold and level every toon in the world to 70.
