I actually feel like AA's ruined the game for me (despite the fact that I miss many of the AA abilities I had).
My reasoning:
I quite enjoy leveling up all sorts of different characters. Once AA's were introduced, (especially after POP AA's) every time I decided to play an alt instead of my main I was essentially letting my main character fall behind the curve and it felt like shit.
The thought of essentially leveling up forever makes me sick. When I hear about people playing today with 5000+ AA's I literally want to barf and am so glad I quit the game when I did.
I enjoy having a high cap on things.
I like being able to semi-retire a character.
Save it for raids, helping out guildies, exploring new quests or whatever.
I enjoy having the time to play a different character and not feel like I'm gimping my main by doing so.

It did make it hard to play twinks, I'll give you that.
Same time, it gave you a reason to take your ridiculous raid-geared character back to ordinary dungeons and show off your mettle. I can remember getting in a group in Bastion of Thunder where the cleric was convinced that their heals were broken.
That's part of the fun in the game, and while I get the idea that it's nice to be able to put a character away... what's the fun in having all this gear that you only use on spawn day?
