The two biggest things that ruined the game for me were as everyone said, the cookie cutter aspect, even though some of those old rares were godly enough to always be good.

and second, not just any hack, but the hack on y2k, when they were able to log in as you and steal your crap. I haven't really kept up with the community (if someone on dzone admitted to being the mastermind) but you left me alive with no stuff vs killing everyone else off, which I found funny, but not less disheartening when I realized the roll back would cost me level 87.5( number 1 alive ) - > just barely 83. It basically killed my will to live, just like the WW change would have done anyways shortly since I was a WW lance barb.

Since I am 'hardcore' in WoW, Glad and killed Kil'jaedin, I am only moderately confident that they will be able to deal with these issues without introducing some carebear aspect. As long as we can respec our toons when they realize that XX is OP, I think that should alleviate a bunch of my concerns.
