Do the quests all reset every time there's a major patch or expansion? This was the first time I was going for it so I can't say. I just know that I basically have to start all over again.

If you didnt get Loremaster before 4.0.3, it was reset and you have to do it all over again.

Even if you did it before 4.0.3a, you have to do it all over again to get credit for the individual zones.  (although you do retain the title)

I was making a run at it, but I don't think I'm going to bother with it now. I don't think I could stomach STV again

I'm not sure I agree with this, though I haven't done any sort of analysis. It sounds to me as though it will be harder rather than easier.
Think about it: Before, you could get Loremaster of Kalimdor (I was about 2/3 of the way there pre-patch) or Loremaster of the EK (I was about 1/4 of the way there) by doing any quest on a particular continent that awarded progression toward the achievement. This excludes many quests, repeatable ones, dailies, etc for obvious reasons.
Now, you HAVE to quest in EVERY zone in order to get this achievement. Sure, travel has been made easier, but to give an example: Pre-patch, one could get (roughly) 1/6th of the way to Loremaster of Kalimdor by simply doing all the Silithus quests. One zone, little travel and you'd get approx. 116 or so of your quests done right there. Now, only 19 of those Silithus quests will count toward the achievement, as after 19 quests you get the "Silithus Quests" achievement and doing more quests doesn't advance your progress.
Maybe there are fewer than the 700 needed for LoK. I'd need to add them up to see. Either way, much more travel is required than before.

I'd think it would be a bit easier when we can fly in old world. Sorry to hear about your luck.

I did Loremaster of EK on 11/6/08, Loremaster of Kalimdor 11/7/08 - back when you had to do 760 or whatever it was quests which left something absurd like fewer than 10 quests you could skip. You couldn't skip any zones or even any significant portion of any zone back then. I'm going to thump my chest a bit here and tell you that I have no sympathy!
