[WoW] I'm probably enjoying this too much

but all the Blacksmiths on the forums being butt-hurt by the lack of BoPs is making me smile.

Yuuuup.

Don't have a link handy, but basically, one of the Blues said that there weren't going to be epic BoPs in the crafting professions. (Although, of course, there are... they're just in Engineering.) Apparently, they're trying something different for Wrath. There will be epics in Blacksmithing. They're just going to be BoE instead of BoP.

There also, apparently, are no current plans for tiered weapons (like Stormherald), which is causing a major amount of butt-hurt among the more vocal posters on the forums.

Naturally, I'm trying hard not to enjoy the turnabout too much. And I'm failing at it.

I'm having a hard time seeing what the problem is. Actually gives Smiths and other crafting professions something to sell.

Well, the butt-hurt on the forums are claiming that "waaah, it's not fair" and "waah, no one will want to pay the prices we set" and "waaah, someone will undercut us".

You know, again, all the same arguments Engineers made about the motorcycle.

If someone is undercutting them, that means that they are pricing it too high.

See, you're looking at it thoughtfully. That's the different between you and the forum-idiots.

Bitches need to look at EveOnline and learn some fecking economics.

*shakes head and points up thread* I have to agree with the opinion that it's "tiny dick syndrome"
