I hear asia has pay per hour, quickly google ->

So not can't play but with more cafe culture and pay per hour they don't 
spend hours late at night at home on long raids and pack a lot into 
limited time.
Actually cafe culture could be good for guilds and raids if people 
regularly get together in the same room.

I suppose that is a sort of can't play, which also applies to me
but then I *really* can't play either , or rather I prefer to *play* not 
work at a game, so I tell myself :-)

It doesn't make much difference if they had 1000 upgrades , it is only 
relative and it doesn't affect other wow players. Only out of wow epeen 
rankings are affected. I beieve for quite some time they were an 
expansion behind so this is just the swing catching up.

   Getting off topic I often hear people discounting asia and 
particularly chinese products as rubbish. This partly is true , they 
build to a price and if you buy something at 1/4 price it is going to 
have corners cut BUT they have the skills and organisation to make it 
that cheap and deliver in weeks. Blame ourselves for unreasonable 
expectations and being cheap, not them for delivering what we ask for.
