it stupid when you see a 660+ lvl req for highmaul normal, or curve. the only reason why people set those high ilvl reqs is because they want a clean run for gear. also players having an unrealistic req in general causes alot of issues for players that are either behind in gear or came to wod late, because you get denied everywhere. the fact that lfr got gutted this xpac is the reason why most people pug instead of running lfr, and thus the ilvl req got higher because people dont want "lfr heroes" in their groups. ilvl is a plauge to the game, and people blindly thinks that high ilvl=skill.

it just that people are so gear horny so they forget that they are actually playing with other players. aslong as they get their gear, why should they care right ? it dosent matter if they get their fair share of gear. and there lies the problem. wod is to raid and gear sentric, and the only way to progress your character is trough raiding. i allways here the argument that its bs and there are plenty of ways to get gear beside raiding. sure, you can craft gear and grind apexis crystals , but its just way to slow and painful way to progress your character unless you have a ton of gold to buy some gear pieces of the ah.
I think (hope this is what he meant) you misunderstood him. You can already start to see why posting here is bad:
In general, people here tend to hate "item or achievement requirements for groups". You can see that in the 100 threads each day of people complaining about "unreasonable expectations".
I started an "1shot HC BRF full clear group" with 680+ ilvl requirement + AotC. I got people telling to kill myself within seconds. People don't seem to understand that nobody wants to carry their sorry asses. I don't want to wipe on a boss, I want clean quick kills and be done with the entire raid in around 2-2.5 hours. I don't want to be stuck there for 5 hours because "they pay the same amount and deserve the same content no matter of the effort put in".
Even suggesting that they can make their own group will get you death threats from certain people around here.
