Only to some, plus only a small part of glam came from crafting.


crafters have entire quest lines that are exclusive to them, entire reward structures.
And so does all other classes? Ever level up a class you don't like to play? A lot of people do, and what we do with those classes when we cap them, we stop playing them. That's me with Ninja, after hit the cap with it, the next time I play the class is when the next expansion come out. But there are other DoW and DoL I play regularly, take them into new dungeon/raid/content and such. For crafter, new gears is part of their content life cycle to keep them engage throughout the expansion. You don't want people to level their crafter to cap then stop playing them.

i'm sick of this play week one and quit meta.
I'm also sick of people complaining about meta when it has always been an optional thing. Don't like the meta? Just don't be part of it. If my gaming time is 10 parts, probably 1 or 2 part of it follow the meta (usually because of Ultimate), but outside of that I often don't care and follow it. Yet I never have issue with finding group or clearing content. What's the point of complaining about other people play style when it doesn't really affect yours? You don't care about week 1 clear? You don't have to. But people who want to should be provided the mean to do so.
