That's one thing I agree on. They announced reforging as a way to customize your character, but it became another min/max tool centered around hit and expertise. When they removed hit and expertise I was thinking to myself "nice, reforging can finally be the customization thing they wanted it to be." But they removed it.
Btw what do you mean by 'wrong stats'? Do you mean anything that doesn't have the two best stats for your current spec? I remember a ret pally who was in my guild around the time HFC came out, and he went on a rip snorting swearing frothing rampage when he found out the legendary ring was going to have versatility, which was ret's worst stat. I plugged his character into AMR and it weighted vers like 0.03% behind the second stat, and all within 0.10% of each other. But that was enough for him. Needless to say he wasn't in the guild long.
