    Eh, not a good read, the writer obviously doesn't get the point of Achevments.

    And he's obviously never ran a For the Horde/Alliance.

    Context is overrated.

    You can tell WoW changed the MMO for good when players started complaining about the amount of time they sink, into a time sink.

    Kingslayer achievments should be on there for pointlessness.

    School of Hard Knocks are not hard, and since its needed for a title and What A Long Strange Trip Its Been its not pointless either.
    BB King is pointless, but only a little hard to get to the king of each city.
    the fishes aint pointless, since they needed for Salty, and its a choice if you wanna do it.
    Blizzard got some pretty good jokes in the title, which he not only disagrees with, but get it to sound like its something everyone knows or should.
    Insane in the Membrane, while the factions are pointless, it shows that you have worked hard for getting it. its hard, but not Pointless since it shows that you reached an epic goal and got a really awesome title.
    Scrab Lord was very hard, but long from Pointless. opening two raids for your server, getting a legendary title and mount is not pointless in my eyes.

    Going Down?
    Needy/Greedy
    To all the squirrels...
    Make Love, Not Warcraft
    Stocking Up

    Are my most pointless ones. Not counting the Holiday achievements which for the most part are all pretty boring/pointless.

    That's kind of contrary to the entire point of the linked article. The author seems to be focused on achievements that have no relationship to accomplishing something real in actual gameplay, and regardless of your opinion of the difficulty of downing the Lich King on regular modes, that certainly doesn't qualify.

    The writer of this article seems to be incredibly biased towards PvP or anything that takes time, whether it gives awards or not. At least three of those five are needed for titles, and two are quite impressive ones to have.

    The article writer is the clearcut definition of a casual player, and a very angry one at that.

    Yeah, same.. Wouldn't even remotely call that a "great article."

    I wonder how long it took him to write that article. I doubt he even plays the game when he says

    "The rest of us just go, "Oh, that's interesting," and then go have sex."

    because people who play wow don't have sex. How amazingly original.

    You know, for a kitten that shits rainbows, you seem to like to stay inside the box.

    With that negative attitude he has towards WoW, everything is useless and a waste of time.
    As a WoW player I find it being a bad article, as it is just another way to say "WoW is a waste of time".

    I just read that part and laughed my ass off. That statement makes me think that not only is he not a casual but the fact that he doesn't even know what WoW is...
