    This is what I'm hoping for.

    Leave the crutches and training-wheels out of the game's more challenging content, please.

    Addons like DBM are never necessary so long as people are willing to pay attention, learn the fights and actually attempt to improve. The problem lies in the fact that many people don't want to do that. They want the game to be as easy as possible. They want the win to be as guaranteed as they can make it. And if using an add-on to spoon-feed them the info that they would normally have to learn and pick up on by playing the game gets them their win/loot faster.. then that's all they care about.

    My favorite rationalization is when people say something like "all the add-ons do is bring functionality into the game that the devs forgot to add and should have been there to begin with". Are you freaking kidding me? Because "you" (you being the people who use such ridiculous arguments) need a crutch to succeed at certain game content doesn't mean it's "missing from the game". It means you need a crutch to succeed at certain game content that is otherwise do-able without it.
