So go do it then? If you honestly believe you could do a better job than Blizzard, I absolutely challenge you to do so.
You know why I don't say "I could do a better job at running the game than Blizzard" or other such unrealistic things? Because that's what such requests are; unrealistic. When I say I can do something better, I actually go ahead and try it. When I say I can design a piece of webcode better than someone else, I go and try to do better. When I say I can create interfaces that are more fantastic than what someone else created, I go and try to do better. When I say I can be better at a game than someone else, I go and try to be better at it. I don't always succeed, but I often come to a compromise and settle for moulding that project around me, and return to improve it more at a later date. Continual improvement is why I'll eventually challenge myself to build a full game from the ground up, but in the mean time, it's why I keep challenging myself to build even more extravagant projects.
Running and continually balancing and updating an MMO, especially one of such a scale of WoW, is not something I'd say I could do better. I used to say I could balance the game better, but this was in the days when they balanced around Arena exclusively, and PVP was a mix of hard counters and a lot of useless specs (i.e. mid-TBC).
So, are you going to accept the challenge, or are you simply going to continue shouting off because you're infuriated that a new system hasn't yet adapted or settled into place?
