The ones having the most fun are the ones who stayed behind the curve

I've been enjoying myself casually with alts and my highest in mid 20's. I don't see 35-50 being fun at all with limited space to breath, and for that reason I have no intention to rush into the insanity just to get fed up and leave until Kunark.

Sorry too busy farming drops to gouge you on in a few months

The fun of scrubs is overshadowed by the achievements of elites! Wallow in your own mediocrity!

Seriously though:
Much of the whining about lists and high end content is from the low lvls that aren't doing it, that are jealous of those who are. So obviously not everyone in the scrub army is happy to see farming bone chips to pay for banded armor as the height of elite content.

Personally I enjoy pushing myself to level faster and get loot, and don't much care what makes others happy. Not sure why so many feel the need to try to push their view of 'fun' onto others.

All I can say is that my guildies that are in the 40s for the last 3 weeks struggle every day to find groups. While everyone else is catching up and getting groups and playing.
