Seriously, you need to stop judging people by their rank o.Ô
Maybe I have way more hours of play behind me than you, maybe I already got 5 characters with every class on rank 50 because I had enough time and 3 PCs to do it? Or maybe I don't? Actually, who cares?
It doesn't mean a thing about my devotion to this game. But it's always easy to call
that a valid argument and say "I know so much more about this game than you." when actually you don't know a thing about how much I know, play or whatever
And to answer your OP post in a different way:
No, you are NOT explaining a thing about why you quit, so it's not helping the devs at all.
"I haven't had fun in this game yet."
-> Not helpful, how the hell should they know what you consider "fun"?
"grinding behest was really all I had in terms of progression"
-> Behest are still there, new ways of progression were added, and btw..there always were other ways of leveling but behests. So this statement is not helpful either.
"You can add all the instances you want, but if there is no way to progress in this game effectively, you have basicly killed your game"
-> Like I just said, there are, even if you believe I am not qualified to say anything about it, there are still many many other players out there with ranks far above yours, and all of them also managed.
Although I'd still say this statement is the one closest to an actually explanation
Your whole post sounds a lot like ragequitting to me.
It sounds like you don't like the new patch (which is totally okay, everyone has an opinion and it's normal opinions differ) but are too lazy to formulate what you don't like so it could actually HELP the devs to understand what's wrong with their patch.
And btw: I still think my idea of one huge quit-thread is better.
Because everyone can just like the first post who agrees, so the devs can see in numbers how many people want to quit and after liking the first post, players can also add the reasons WHY in their own post.
Your idea is bad, because it's basically spamming the forums with new threads no one but the devs want to read, keeping players who want to have a nice discussion on other topics from talking because they can't even find their threads anymore with all the quitting threads.
Great job not thinking further than your own problems, alexi14.
