Since you're new, you missed the backtracking-marathon that were the ARR and HW relics - grats on that! - but that pretty much made me not want to see any more backtracking.

I'm telling you I'm fine with this old content not offering any rewards beside the content itself - maybe the problem here is that I dont raid to raise my ilvl, but because I enjoy the fights and challenges (and the glamour - more than the ilvl) and I dont want to be "forced" to go back to do content that my static learned and cleared 3 years ago instead of spending half a year with 4 bosses that are at least new content.
And dont tell me "You dont have to, if you dont want to!" - because that means that the rewards arent worth it.

I'm "against" this because I'm trying to tell you that it doesnt/wouldnt work. And because I want to see less backtracking and more new content.

...and if "many people" want to experience this content properly, then it shouldnt be that hard to find like minded people, right?
Let me tell you something: During a content drought last year - between raidcycles - my static went back and cleared some Coil at minimum ilvl. We're also doing that on occassion with people who are new to the game, joined the FC and would now like to do it properly. We recently went back to get dyeable tank-coats from A8S for a friend and myself.
Maybe I'm lucky with my FC/friends/static, but I'm very much convinced that this is a question of finding the right people - not the right rewards. I like that this is content that I can go back to when I feel like it (...I just blackmail my static...) instead of content that I have to do yet again for half a year, every week.
Mainly because your reasoning as to why you don't want to see it is inadequate, and mostly based on your lack of faith in the developers ability to handle it. So, yeah, I don't like that answer.

And I've told you already, I'm not asking for content to be doable in DF. I could care less. More content for statics IS GOOD for the health of MMOs. I've explained to you that doing this properly doesn't take away development time, it's as simple as adjusting numbers.

And I've also told you that content that is not rewarding doesn't get done. I'm not sure what is so difficult about this concept to grasp. Basically, the way this is coming across is that you don't want it because you've already done it. So screw all the newcomers, shoulda been here sooner? I don't like that stance either, quite frankly. I don't know about how much experience you have in MMOs, but its quite literally the same in all of them. Content that is not rewarding gets ignored, period. And the fact of the matter is, that regardless of how fun or interesting a fight may be, if there's no reward for the effort then people won't try.
