I haven’t read the rest of this post yet, but c’mon… why are you saying this in a forum?
This is not a reasonable argument against something. It’s an ad hominem attempt, but I would suspect that it actually has the opposite effect for most learned audiences.

“terrible opinions” - wow… well, I only suppose that your opinion that others have perspectives that give them opinions being described as “terrible” is a valid opinion, since you seem to have it, and I’ll consider you to be valid.
What does that mean?

What precisely are you trying to say by “just a video game” and why are you ascribing that to WoW — and why in this thread in this context?

Because a BG queue time isn’t something that fits that definition in my opinion.
