But that doesn't change the fact that enabling raid frames makes the job EASIER no matter what skill level you are at. The option of having addons means that people who use them will always be better-off with them, as compared to without them. The option is available. Lets try to remember that, alright?

I'm sorry but I don't consider that to be true for even a moment. World of Warcraft was fine as it was back when it was first released. For example, Deadly Boss Mods is a very popular addon that basically tells you everything the boss is going to do and when he/she/it is going to do it. However, this is something any player can figure out on their own if they actually paid attention to the fight.
I can see this is upsetting you as I knew it would. Quite frankly, your crutch doesn't make you better off or more skilled than someone who refuses to use it. They can perform just as well as you if not better. The option is available but that doesn't mean anything and as far as I'm concerned, it's more hindering than helpful.

You clearly ain't raiding at HC level.
alright, alright. No need to go after what each other is or is not doing. While I do agree that for a game like Guild Wars, addons aren't really all that important. Mostly and imo, it is because you're limited to a small selection of spells and they are either on relatively short cds, or the de/buff they provide is a short timed one. Also, I think a lot of the skills are more "simplistic" than some of WoWs.
it also helps that GWs is made with the idea in mind that you don't need addons and more than likely won't have them. WoW is in a different field than GW and thus addons can and sometimes do make or break it for people. While you can get by without addons, you may not be performing at you max abilities.

The thing is, that alot of people hate the standard UI in wow and want to be able to change look, size and other stuff. I personally, when I still played wow, did not use the addons that "play" the game for you like DBM, healbot etc. But I did use TukUI since I loved the looks and the features it have. I love to be able to move things around to fit my playstyle and be able to track my own buffs/debuffs with bars instead of small spining icons that can be hard to track when there is a 8347 other debuffs on the boss frame.
Yeah. I actually just found it surprisingly enough. It's called "LunarSphere" but unfortunately the person behind the addon is no longer updating it (last update was nearly a year ago). I'm still going to use it though, provided it's not broken when I load it up. I guess I'll also take this time to update my other mods and remove Auctionator. I started using it during the last patch or the one before that because I didn't feel like waiting for them to make Auctioneer compatible. Poor decision on my part.
How about you just not say anything? I think that's better than essentially continuing the thing you're "trying" to stop.
What? If there's no question how could I state it a second time?
Except you added nothing to the argument. Nothing. You basically repeated what Xuvial said.

:S Makes it seem like you asked something.
You're right, my opinion was in the same vein of Xuvial's. Doesn't mean I couldn't and shouldn't have posted it. And truthfully your posts in reply to others' about addons comes of as snippy or snooty. If that's not your intent, maybe you should reword things.
It seems to be the only language you understand, so I had no choice. Now get off you high horse, and stop pretneding you're something amazing on the internet.
If you don't like my tone, I suggest you not come by this topic again then, since I reply to everyone exactly the same way, I will tell you how it is no matter who you think you are. You seem to think you're above people here.
Calm down guys, waiting this long for the slightest bit of GW2 info has caused us all to get a bit on the edge .
