I've played solidly since vanilla and I can tell you why I've been "on break" for the first time since I started playing... there's too much shit to keep up with anymore. Blizzard's main demographic has grown up, with more pressures on their time than they used to have. At the same time, Blizzard is adding to and changing the game mechanics so radically and so often that the bulk of their players can 't keep up anymore. Last month I'm stacking X (with gems and reforging and enchants and on and on and on and on) ... this month that stat is crap? Really? I gave up on this latest patch... it's just been too much.

Truthful? Hardly... especially when you consider all the web designers out there with a completely IE-centric coding style. Not the browsers' faults... but the truth to be sure.
