Just like the endless grinding and farming if you >wanted to open the gates of ahn'qiraj in Tanaris in vanilla. My fear now is that to save the poor dear raiders from feeling obliged to do LFR for their legendary quest chains when their guild hasn't got through normal mode, LFR won't get it next time (assuming there is another chain). I very much hope I'm wrong, I loved having access to the chain this time out, gave me a lot more purpose in the game having something like that to work on. >> Maybe I'll run more alts through this time out, since I'll be >> bored on my main quickly, but still, it'll likely make it tougher >> overall too as there won't be many well-geared people around to carry >> the ones who are crap players/too lazy to actually play properly.

Both ends with a useful or vanity reward. MORE OF THAT, >PLEASE!!! Agreed! I don't want them taking these things *away* from those of us who aren't in high-end raid guilds, that's all. For most of the history of the game we never had these things, we've had them this expansion, and now some are being removed again, I'm worried how far it'll go.
