Casuals "burn out" when the next shiny new game steals their attention away.

I would guess that in 6 months a bunch of the Class R guilds lose interest in all but the high-end R mobs (for epics) and many of the lower end dragons get left up for the 6 hours or whatever and the Class C ends up getting those on a regular basis too.

lol nice predictions, haters

Casuals burn out a lot faster then hardcores, and most hardcore guilds have tons of turn over people who break/quit.

but youll believe what you want

Hardcore raiders somehow think that the new rules will burnout casuals. They don't realize most casual guilds raid at least 3 times a week, but now they'll be killing dragons somtimes instead of clearing fear/hate. Basically they're just crying, trying to convince themselves that the server will be dead because the GMs didn't do what they wanted. The Ocean of Tears is filling up quickly.

Wait....So casuals raid hate/fear/chardok for 3 years straight....then you think after 6 months of dragons and real raid mobs that they'll finally burnout?!? Hardcore players actually think like this? I...but...umm...errr....

I predict that "casuals" give zero fucks what "hardcore"players think/want.

Most of those casuals did burn out. Welcome to the server Reiguy. You have been here how long?

Casuals fuel RMT you think hardcore players buy shit from anyone, the answer is no......they were the sellers... this is basic stuff here.

Flow of economics

Without discussing dynamics like these its all a fallacy.

Thats just that main reason casuals wont last long, imho

I'm sure some casuals will burn out. Just as hardcores burn out. But there will always be more people to replenish the ranks of those who have fallen, so long as this server isn't completely dead. That wont happen for years after Velious hits. But if this guy thinks that after 6 months of raiding new content then the casual scene will completely give up/burn out...he's wrong. Don't know what else to say.
