If you mean sub numbers will plummet once xpac novelty wears out, you're dead wrong. There's nothing but historical proof that WoW's day's are waning no matter how many expansions are released. If not sooner than later, I can see Blizzard attempting classic servers if retail subscriptions reach critical mass and many many realms are all but desolated; and that's IF they choose to ignore their veteran players. I'll be happy to come back after any amount time it will take for it to happen to feed some crow. I think I'll know where to find you: idling in your Barracks. The EQ and Runescape games have offered classic servers and it very much revitalized and brought interest back to game/brands as a whole. So without doing much other than asserting a comment without any evidence or basis, let the vocal outcry, whether it be a minority or a majority, resonate in Activision's court.
