    I can agree it is a negative comment, but there were a lot more POSITIVE comments in that article than negative.

I got what I wanted from my reps, and I rarely leave the cities, just semi restocking/posting auctions while watching a show.
    But when I do, know what gets me out? The vanity crap I mentioned. Nerd points. Shit like that. More carrot and less stick.
    "ad naeseum"? Really? Latin just makes you sound pompus like the guilds. And yeah, there is Galleon, Sha, and other things to do other than dailies. People are doing things to raid all the time that do not involve dailies.

    So, because they don't want to make time to do something someone else is already finishing makes it Blizz's problem how? I can see if NO ONE was raiding cause of dailies. These people are DONE with Tier 14 25man. All I ever hear is excuses and begging for nerfs.

    See I can do the same.
    I'm not arguing MoP as a whole isn't good.

    Here's another if you want
    If raiding is the pinnacle of World of Warcraft's PvE content, why doesn't it reward you better with the Valor point system like it used to. Raiding requires hours and hours of hard work and concentration, how come I have to do even more chores outside of it to upgrade my gear I got from it.

    I used that specific quote earlier because it was short and to the point.
    You should actually address my post and what I'm saying next time.

    About MoP as a whole. Which I do actually enjoy, especially compared to Cata, even if that isnt saying much sadly. Im not arguing that point

    I never argued that they were gods or what have you. My point was people claim quite frequently "well hardcore guilds didnt need rep gear", when they out of anyone spent the most time on reps due to the multiple raids top guilds often do, especially on the first week of normals.

    Ad Naeseum is hardly some rare latin term. Its pretty common terminology lol.
    If that's pompous and rare term for you, I suggest you join society.
    Alternatively
    In oculis spectantium pomposity
    or something

    I was saying most people can't do the 12 hour a day schedules that guilds often do on the world first push, when you asked why more guilds don't raid with their schedules.

    I don't even understand how you got me crying for nerfs out of this in addition. If anything I'm typically on the other side of the fence arguing against them.

This has been discussed to death in the other threads.
    Just a thought, if you don't use charm rolls, and you don't actually tell anyone you don't use charm rolls...how are they going to find out? I only ask because, call me crazy, you can't enforce something on someone if you have no way of knowing whether they did it or not, and in the case of charms it is extremely plausible that a person may never get a piece of gear that they would actually use.
