Unless you are playing 24/7 the pre-HW story takes alot longer than a week. Some people only have a few hours a day to play, if that. The story is going to take a lot longer than a week. I came in late and had to play catch up by the time I got to post 2.0 content all the patches up to 2.55 had been released, it took me over a month's time to complete it. Actually had to stop playing it for a bit to keep some sanity.

You must be new here. When the xpac was launched there were tons of multi-page threads debating this very topic.
