The only reason Luclin portals were useful was for old world intercontinental travel by foot, and even then overland travel took a long ass time.
As a druid, I didn't notice a reduction in business after Luclin. How badly do you need to get to Cobalt Scar? You're still running a long ways if you take the spire, and you're definitely running through Skyshrine, hope you have the key and aren't kos...!
Anyway... PoK is what shrunk the world in a bad way, not Luclin. imho.
on topic:
-I am in favor of the luclin expansion, minus the ridiculous hp/ac in VT. SSRA was and is my favorite content.
-I am not necessarily against the bazaar either... Sure, EC is great for classic. I loved it then, It's cool now too, but I'm in favor of the stimulus package to our economy that is the bazaar (in limited form, possibly a single room, none of the other bs)
