3.1 is like their last chance to mend this mess. If they do it right, the crafting game is saved. If they don't... it's hard to say how many if us would quit. Oh, and when we quit, we don't just quit crafting, we just unsubcribe and play something else. If they wanna take their time to fix the mess, it's fine, we will take our time too... without paying. We can always come back later after they fixed it.
Almost all the other serious crafters in my FC quit over a month ago. From what I've seen and heard around my server, we aren't the only FC losing crafters left and right... It will take a monumental amount of stubbornness and/or ignorance on SE's part to not have some major changes in the works for 3.1. The sad part is, however, I can already see them throwing that "sky pirate" glamour gear at us and calling it good enough... I guess we'll see.
