Wrath/Cataclysm system was basically ignore everything that is slightly outdated. You're saying the Wrath/Cataclysm system worked better even though that's when people started to leave? WoW lost a TON of subscribers during Cataclysm, it had a horrible design, hell even with MoP launch we are just above 10 million even though at Cataclysm launch we were up at 12, because people fear it's going to be just another Cataclysm expansion.
