Yoshida has made his choices, I know not everyone agrees with them, but as the game director they are his choices to make. Maybe we get a mid expansion healer like we got NIN, maybe in 6.0 they unlock the races, but regardless nothing is being done on the forums with this firestom other than just shouting over each other.

You will have to wait to get the things you want. Patience is a virtue. As Yoshida likes to say: "please look forward to it."
Of course nothing is going to instantly change, they're on a schedule. But we'd like to get male bunnies sometime before 6.0, maybe a healer as well or at least a large rework. I imagine a re-work IS in the works, if nothing else.
