You seem to be a fairly angry person Xi.

I fail to see why the end game content should be as restricted as it is - obviously Blizzard agrees with me, or the instances would still be at pre-nerf 2.01 level.

Yes, "true end game" is a status symbol that many on these forums don't want to give up - but why aren't these people happy saying "we beat it pre-nerf", or "we did it on heroic mode"? What do the "true end game" players, in this case seemingly characterised by Xi and his battering of anybody not up to Illidan, have against people seeing more content?

I certainly don't advocate any Kara-level guild jumping straight in and killing Illidan, but I do support some "dumbing down" of the end game instances. In my opinion, the ~10% of guilds in BT (quoted earlier in this thread) should in my opinion be higher - 30% maybe, or even 50%. Whether this is done via nerf, or via a "normal/heroic mode" model doesn't fuss me.
