    You do know that it's made to gear up alts. It isn't even good gear. LFR gear is better. So please stop crying

    Clicking chests over and over and over again is better than doing a dungeon over and over and over again? Oke!

    Mailing the gear to my characters is even better than clicking chests over and over and over again.

    The gear isn't even that great. A lot of the gear I got only has one secondary stat. Like just mastery or haste, it looks like generic gear you get from leveling in MoP as well.

    Considering your browser comes with a spell check, I find your argument pretty invalid when you can't spell "ridiculously" correctly. Go cry more, special snowflake.

    How can a snowflake be special? All snowflakes are unique. I guess your argument is invalid. If you actually have one.

    The only "problem" as i see it, is that SoO LFR will flood with even more newbies who got geared fast.. the items itself are useless..

    Learn to adapt and find a new market to profit from. Or you could bellyflop and cry on forums.

    and in another world where this is done, the alt!OC is bitching about how it takes forever to gear up alts and how disgusting it is how blizz is pandering to Elites.

    A cry thread about someone disagreeing with a design choice made by Blizzard for WoW? This is new and exciting!

    Such a stupid one-liner.

    If there were no different opinions, there would be nothing do discuss... ever.

    I know right? We should definately keep noobs out of LFR, because if they go in there whats next? Will they come for my precious purples? Will they jump straight to Heroic Garrosh and take my spot in my raid guild? The nerve of these 'new players' to actually expect to do something after we have worked so hard on the forums to deny the content to 90% of them! I demand blood! (sarcasm off)

    Then kudos to you because I don't have time to play on the isle 24/7 with 24 of my closest friends in order to do all of that stuff efficiently. I'll be like everyone else where I go out for an hour or two in between raiding to farm some coins, find new chests I haven't seen yet, try not to die jumping on the tightropes for chests, and generally enjoy it over the next 6 months.

    Am I the only one that doesn't get a hard-on about gear? Like really, are people going that insane over an item? Do I really need to have a sense of accomplishment, or feeling I earned anything in WoW? I've had those days, and they are over, and I'm happy about that, I would not give the time I gave a couple years back just to get items that when I finally get the full set of, the next patch is out and time to grind gear all over again.

    As for your last line, everything gets boring fast if you do nothing but that. Just look at all the other new places added in past patches. Ghost towns.

    If in 27 posts you are getting threads closed and infractions, no offense but you're probably not doing something correctly. I mean..just this post is both non productive and criticizing moderators which are either frowned on or completely against forum rules. Probably something to take up in a private setting and not publicly as a thread repsonse.

    Just friendly advice.

    hear, hear. I used to be on the other side, back when there were no alternatives...but I have perspective of seeing the game from all sides and I share your opinion. It's whatever. Prestige comes from accomplishment and much of that can just be broken down to having the time and people who want to do it with you. I have neither the time nor desire to surround myself with people to do these things.

    I've pvp'ed the last two xpac's, and I can say: I love that they put in this catchup so I can faceroll SoO when it comes out on LFR. RAAAWWWWRR

    Except it's not like them, as they dropped gear that allowed people to gear up for the current content. The island only allows you to gear up for LFR, you can't even get into a flex raid with that gear. They've nerfed the drop rate for burdens from the keys, and grinding out 50k coins for each piece of poor and badly itemised 535 gear isn't remotely fun. LFR always has a horrible drop rate, and with only one wing being open next week and the gating of subsequent wings that's not an option for gearing either. There doesn't seem to be a realistic way for new players/rerollers/returners to gear up for current content unless some guild takes them on as a pity project. So the OP needn't worry, these ghastly scrubs with their 'fast food epics' aren't going to be experiencing his precious raid content for a long, long time.
