BAD WOLF
Every time I try flying really fast I end up at Disneyworld. I think one time I wound up on an island. Luckily that island had iguanas and mongooses (mongeese?mongoosi?) that stole jelly packets off of the breakfast patio and not smoke monsters or anyone in the Dharma Initiative.
BAD WOLF
Recognition for what? Leveling is a brainless joke and has virtually no effect on the skill level of the player.

So people can discriminate against boosted 90s? No thanks. Last thing we need in this game is more elitist scumbags.
What for? So that people that get boosted to 90 are kept out of groups?
It was already dumb enough when people who bought the helm in the Shop were getting kicked out of their groups...
And no, there is no indication that someone who boosted to 90 is a "baddie". I know tons and tons of players who leveled all the way and are "baddies". And I am sure there will be "boosteds" who will be better than you.

McBad Bad can be anyone, boosted or not. Maybe even a boosted player may make you feel the McBad Bad of the run.

No, just no, the Warcraft community is toxic as it is with requirements. Showing those same people you're boosted is just asking for trouble.
I really don't know why everyone assumes that boosting is going to be for ultra casual or bad players... The bad raiders are usually the ones that enjoy questing, spend way too much time doing it, and never learn to do anything outside of their questiong "rotation"... They spend their raid time (aka LFR) playing as if they were still questing, which most times is the REASON they're so bad.
Leveling doesn't teach players to be good at anything but questing. If anything, based on the additions of things like Monk quests (to teach abilities) and Proving Grounds, the boosted player starting quests are probably going to teach that boosted player more than 90 levels of questing ever will, and chances are they'll be better than those of you who seem to think it's SO important that people quest.
Once again, if your ability to quest to 90 is your great achievement and you need to be "recognized" for that... Then you're probably the bad player, and the reason I don't even do things like LFR even on my alts.
This stigma that only baddies want to skip the leveling process is so upside down it's absurd.
This is a terrible idea. People who boosted but are still trying to research their class and learn it properly will be criticised and attacked for not being awesome right off the bat. A system like this encourages mob mentality and it's just repulsive.
I hate to break it to you, but you have to research your class again when you hit 90 anyway. You even have to research it every time you get a new tier set or the patch is released because rotations are often drastically altered by those events. Levelling to 90 does not teach you your class, despite what others claim. You don't even have most of your good abilities until you hit 80. There was a push in Cataclysm to change this, and that's why shadow priests start with shadow form at level 10 instead of level 40, but they seem to have abandoned those efforts since. That, however, is even more reason to eliminate manual levelling as a criteria for audit.
Didn't we mark people with stars of david and pink triangles in the 30's and 40's so we could tell who were the good people and who needed gas showers? How did that work out again?
OP sounds like you spent 10 years in WoW and would feel cheated. Tip, dont take games too seriously, they are just games.
