Realm First push people to skip leveling content. They don't want that anymore.

Then why don't we cry about not getting an achievement for cheering those people on too? It's the experience that matters in the end, right?
So here's a thought, why not, for once, enjoy the experience of rushing through and ignoring all of the launch content instead of just spamming your achievement nobody cares about in Trade or whatever it is the World First crowd does?
You're right, they're not content. They're dangling carrots that encourage people to exploit like crazy. I think about half the people who got realm first profession achievements on my server for Cata used some sort of exploit to max their professions in 15 minutes.
So yeah, I guess people enjoyed doing them if they enjoyed exploiting. Which is against TOS. So off it goes, and good riddance.

Same here, it might seem backward logic for some. But claiming removig the achievement will make people "enjoy the content" more is just wrong. People will speed level regardless of the achievement.
Speed/marathon leveling is the closest thing to the propper hardcore progression raiding experience most people have an opertunity to get. that its removed really sucks =(
--edit--
To be honest I really dislike the entire achievement system, and rather see they removed the whole thing. But when they have it removing achievements like this seems really silly.

I think you missed the part where I said I don't attempt any leveling firsts. Maybe I should've worded that to say I don't care for them, but the social experience I've had for Cata and MoP was entertaining. I'm not immaturely annoyed to the point where I'll go OMG BLIZURD IM QUITING CUZ THAT CHANG IS STUIPD, quite frankly I'll never quit over a change, but I am annoyed about the reasons they removed it for.
May I ask what is really silly ? There are people who cheat to get that "silly" achievement . . .
I remember the case from Ravencrest-EU, a druid got the achievement that way;
Blizz removed his/her achievement at the beginin of MoP but a few months later he got the achievement as FOS AGAIN.
So is this really FAIR apart from being "silly" ??
At this point, yeah, I can see HOW "Speed/marathon leveling is the closest thing to the propper hardcore progression raiding experience"
I'm just glad that Blizzard did something right finally.
This is the biggest bullshit blizzard has done in a while. GG
"levling-day" is definitly one of the most social days of the year on ts/vent/skype in most guilds I'v been in. I guess it still will be though. thanks to wowprogress etc we will still be able to see who actually get the serverfirsts, there just wount be an anuncement for it.
oh god yes ! first realm class and profession was the more horrible thing in this game ;p we dont care that you have no-life, the game will just be better now
That I did, my apologies.
Holy shit you are making my head spin bro. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt though and assume you're not trolling.
So please explain to us why you feel that doing all of the quests on beta for the sole purpose of blasting to 100 on live as quickly as possible is more preferable to you than doing all of the quests for the enjoyment and experience of actually doing the quests and seeing all of the story.
Man, the leveling race is one of the most fun parts of an expansion to me; win or lose.
