I see - you're giving opinions about content you haven't even seen yourself at all. Way to go.
Option 2), I guess.

See Korrigan, this is why you'll always be a tool, i mean troll. As far as your concerned no one is entitled to their own opinion. it's your way or no way. Your posting history more than backs this up. If someone answers with A, you respond with B. if they answer with B, you respond with A. It's a lose/lose for anyone trying to have a conversation with you.

Period.

You are right about one thing - the "lose lose" part. It's indeed a waste of time to argue with someone who posts opinions about something he didn't experience himself. What you are doing here.
Reminds me the people who are like "Dang, that movie sucks!" - "Did you see it?" - "Nope." - "...".
And talking about post history... it's even more a waste of the time when it comes from a bitter ex-WoW player with an agenda against the game.

When I first read it, I thought your restaurant analogy was crap. Now that I think about it, it's actually quite apt, but not in the way you think it applies.

There are restaurants I regularly visit which serve what I consider to be sub-par food. Buffalo Wild Wings comes to mind. They have certain menu items that are OK, but for the most part I find their food to be crap and I can do much better in my own kitchen. Still, I go there for the atmosphere, the many TVs that allow me to watch multiple NFL games at once, good looking servers, prompt service, NTN trivia, great drink specials, and so on. That doesn't mean I still eat the food. You can love the restaurant (game) and hate the food (individual aspects of the game). I realize that you qualified your statement a few posts back, but one can love the game and hate individual aspects of the game. Sure, there are trolls who will come here and bitch about a game they don't even play (one responded to you in this thread, no need to point him/her out because it's obvious) but for the most part people complain about certain aspects of the game because they enjoy it and want it to be better. That's not whining, that's being a consumer demanding maximum bang for the buck.

I'm talking about the people who whine about every single thing in the restaurant, yet keep coming back, ashmaele. Those people aren't trying to get max bang for the buck, they are trouble makers only going to that restaurant in order to start trouble. A restaurant where they couldn't whine and find attention wouldn't be interesting for them.
Anyone knowing the post history of the most frequent posters here will know what I mean.
For those, I have only two options... 1) they are crazy/stupid/masochistic or 2) they are trolling and the game is not as bad as they pretend even in their own "real" opinion, the opinion they don't give here.

Note that I don't mind those people - they are amusing, and they pay to sustain the game I like. And unlike a "real life" restaurant where it could get physical and end with property damaged, all they can do here is making themself look more ridiculous every day by complaining non stop yet still paying and buying expansions.

Hear, hear. This is probably the biggest complaint I have with the game. I love crafting and I think Blizzard did an excellent job with its system, but there is literally no point in it before you hit your level cap for the reasons you stated. **ETA: There is also little point in anyone purchasing your lower-level wares for the same reason.

I'm in it to experience the content, not to (necessarily) race to end game and raid. In fact, I've never been on a 10-man or 25-man or (in the old days) 40-man raid, though I plan on doing it eventually. When an MMO is dumbed down to get people to max level as quickly as possible it loses its appeal IMO. That's what frustrates me so much about MMO's in general; they start with a mind-numbing grind and, by the time the final xpac is released, it's facerolling easy-mode simplicity.

I agree with the OP. XP comes too fast for me. That said, there's a way to stop xp gain and enjoy the content and I'm glad Blizzard put it there, because to me it makes it worthwhile to stop and smell the roses, so to speak.

Korrigan we are merely commented on how fast the leveling is now. Its not a game breaker, just because we have a critique about one aspect of the game doesn't meant he solution is to jump ship. This isn't an "I hate WoW thread", what you are suggesting is a severe over reaction.

If you don't have anything intelligent or constructive to add to the thread no problem, we really weren't counting you anyway, suggesting that anyone with an opinion about part of the game just play another game is plain stupid.

The funniest part of all is how Korrigan has been butthurt and crying like a school girl for literally 10 years now because he absolutely cannot stand the fact that people post opinions differing from his, then they make him look like a total idiot every time he shows his face.

Now we are at the part where he pretends to be "amused" when in reality, threads like these chap his hurt little butt so badly that he absolutely must come and whine incessantly about what people post. Note he doesn't discuss the topic hardly ever, he just cries about other's opinions about it.

I would truly be sad if Korr stopped posting here, because it has provided comedy gold for a decade now.

Don't ever change bro, for anyone!

It had to happen - one of the usual trolls pretending to know how I feel. Always entertaining when someone seems to get some satisfaction because he THINKS he could have made someone on a video game forum angry or something.

To be honest, I feel quite a bit bored, and impatiently waiting for the real thing (Cataclysm), so I pass time here, giving the trolls some of their medicine back.

And I'm still waiting for an answer to my question - although I don't expect one.
We all know the real answer anyway. As long as you pay for it, no matter how bad you pretend it is, your complains are vain. Companies like Blizzard only understand money - they are totally immune to whining as long as the whiners pay.

They added restaurants in Cata?


No wonder some of you tubbies are leveling WAYYYYYYYYY too fast.
