This thread makes me sick:

I don't understand what casuals want anymore. Not only do they have access to watered down raids that are easier than Mists of Pandaria Heroics, but they still want more.
Honestly, when LFR first started, here's how it went:
- The majority of people knew what they were doing but didn't care since they didn't know anyone in the group.
- They would tag the boss then AFK
- They would continue to AFK and refuse to roll on items.
- If they could, then they would hit need on the item.
Rinse and repeat.
Sure, LFR isn't in the best spot now, but I am so tired of people saying "tanks get abused in LFR"... no they don't. The worst part is, every single thread I've seen of a tank complaining has been a tank with no reforges, no enchants, no gems and they usually don't know the fight.
Well no shit you're getting abused, I would kick you too. As a tank, you can't come to a fight and expect everyone to be patient while someone explains the fight to you. You have 24 other people in there who are ready to go and want to get out of the cesspool (raiding lol) that LFR is.
If you honestly think a tank is getting abused in LFR, please join a competent normal or heroic guild. You'll find that your "tank abuse" is far better in LFR than it is in a guild. You see, in LFR, they just boot you and be done with you. In Normal, you've got 9 to 24 other people pissed off because they brought an incompetent tank who didn't know what they were doing. So if you really think you being removed from a LFR is abuse, I urge you to join a normal guild and try your crap there.
Honestly, LFR in my opinion is far more than they should be offering for casuals, but apparently that's still not enough.
Casuals Have:
- Unrated Battlegrounds (and now access to high end pvp gear that anyone can get)
- Pet Battles
- Watered Down Raids That AFKers Can Complete
- Heroics That Take 5 Minutes To Finish
- BoA Gear Out The Bazinga To Level To 90 In A Week
WHAT MORE DO THEY WANT? Good god man.. I honestly hope Rob Pardo and the new team working on the expansion says "sucks to be you all" and does the following:
- Cans LFR: Just removes it completely...
- Brings back some form of attunements
- Brings back CC and challenge to Heroic Dungeons.
If you don't have a couple of hours a day to devote to a MMORPG... then don't pay $15 a month to play a MMORPG.. it honestly makes no sense to me why people who have no time to play the game would continue to pay for it..
/rant
Now proceed to flame me, tell me how your $15 matters, how wrong I am, how LFR is a wonderful tool, how casuals run this game, how I'm an elitist prick, etc.
