I feel adressed Athrophy, let me retort.

Hording honor to 80 gives you an unfair advantage over other players.
First of all, how big an advantage? Having 2 or 3 of your set items earlier than other people on your server? If you don't level to 80 as fast as the real hardcore's out there you are going to end up retrieving your PvP gear at the same time as the real hardcores. It's not like hording some honor is absolutely game breaking. Aside from that, it only gives me an advantage because I took the time to create one for myself. It's like saying raiders have an unfair advantage over non-raiders because they actually take the time to raid.

What makes you so special you feel you deserve a nice set of welfare epics on the day that you hit 80 while the rest of the players who don't PvP or do it as regularly as you have to raid/grind out gear from the start?
That entire statement is nonsense. You're insinuating I don't have to grind up all my honor. Hell yes I had to, I just did it at a different time. Actually, my 'time spent' on pooling honor will be larger than somebody who does it at 80 (since higher level BG's grant more honor).
Quote:
Is your epeen really that much bigger because you can purchase a full set of gear on day one and go beat up on undergeared scrubs?
It's not my e-peen that's bigger, it's my time management that's different. I realize I might be having less time to play once WOTLK comes out, so pooling honor now seems like an idea.

It will be a couple months before raiders get comparable gear to the PvP gear, and thats about how long it will take you to get your honor back up and start buying the stuff.
That might be the only valid reason to reset honor. But even then, there is no need to reset EVERYTHING, including even my marks. Heck, The real hardcore raiders will have the advantage that they are currently wearing such good gear that they won't replace it until some time into WOTLK. Please replace their gear with S2 then?

The truth of the matter is that it is going to be reset, retarded monkeys with half a brain saw it coming, and posting on an internet forum about how much you think it is unfair isn't going to change it.
No, but you can vent out frustration or anger about it. That's in fact the whole idea of an internet forum, to give opinions on stuff that happens and to discuss them. I actually figured it might've been coming some time ago, so I saved up a bit of honor and waited for official word on the matter before spending it all on epics I no longer really need. Regardless, I was fairly content with the fact that I had 100 marks for 3 out of 4 of the BG's, knowing they wouldn't be much of a problem. But nooo, let's remove those too - for no reason! This basically means there is NO MORE USE AT ALL for me to PvP.

Awaiting rate down to sub-default...
I can't rate, nor do I care about rating. But if you're worth Scholar I expect a challenging reply to this ;)
