It's people like you that make Warmane a better place. Before moltdown, I've managed a guild dedicated to gearing-up fresh 80's. I was in Lordaeron Alliance-side, and it was called "Gearing-Up". It wasn't easy making players loyal and committed because they treated the guild as a transition into joining end-game raiding guilds. I already had 6kgs at the time I was officer, and I still did those RDF runs 5-8 times a day, sacrificing opportunities to do ICC hc and RS. In the long run, the guild wasn't very successful (since the leader had real-life commitments), and most of the guildies either left right away or didn't have time to play WoW. Nevertheless, I would never trade the joys of helping newbies to playing with elitist jerks.

On-topic, the GS requirements have pretty much stay the same. The one thing that has changed though is the lenience of achivs. Pre-moltdown, it was hard to find pugs that are willing to take you without achiv. For example, my hunter already had 5.6kgs with Saurfang achiv yet I was still being turned down for ICC 10n. I guess it has to do with the shrinking population.

Just like real life. People and their hustle.

Sure, sometimes the gs requirment is insane however is it that hard 2 get gear tho? Dont got any vp/coins? Get rep, one day laybacked questing and one rep already maxed out

It makes no sense to me because I remember clearing ICC with roughly 5.3k gs and 11/12 heroic with close to 6k.
I hope anyone can shed some light on this matter.

You can get to 5k in like 1 week .

LFM NAXX 25 min GS 6.4K /w best ach; no noobs (BOEs Res)
Saw it once and the leader was less then 3k gs; so... this might be the biggest reason; no one with that gs (6.4) would need the drops so the 3k organizer will get it
(it he's a warrior/dk/paladin even better for him; no one will inspect him at first)

You know what a joke is

On retail in wotlk you would get invited to ICC10 n with 4.8k gearscore as a minimum. Here on Warmane it's just lol. If I have 6.2k gearscore, why do I even need ICC10?
