hopefully with the nerf of SF will get rid of all Speed Clears. |
However I'll be happy going back to not being expected to run Perma
and it'll give me an excuse to work on my survivor more.

The was the exact same argument before Ursan was nerfed...."oh nerf this so that people would do balanced pug again", "don't worry, good players and guilds will play as it was meant", etc. Now, I bet I could camp in the DoA American dist and international dist for an entire day and wouldn't see more than 5 non-farming group come by.

Frankly, as bad as it is, SF/600/Smite are about the only things keeping people in some zones. Rest only go there to get a monument or master of the north points once and never return. The few that may return will also probably go H/H or guild teams, not pug. And certainly not 'balanced' unless you mean the ole holy trinity...
But I guess we'll all see for ourselves when an update finally rolls round.
seeing how speed clear that is too speedy is a problem, you know what I like to see ArenaNet Nerf? hehehehe 
it really isn't SF's problem.
make it so that players have to kill everything in a dungeon/quests/missions before the quest is registered as over. so people cannot run to the target and complete a quest/dungeon/mission speedily.
for instant.
say you want to kill duncan the black. right, now you run all the way to the dungeon entrance avoiding all the mobs. NO! that is too fast! so, this is what I suggest, one has to kill everything on the path to the dungeon entrance or else they cannot enter the dungeon

Maybe if ANET gave all the Wammos their Griffin farming back, all the QQ's and whinig would stop? I remember back when it was just cool to do a speed FoW armor run in 30 to 40 minutes. Now you can clear the whole area in that time.
I really don't see the problem. More power to people that want to play the way they want to play. They did pay for an open ended game after all. Let ANET nerf away. It will just be a matter of time before the "Next Big Thing" comes along. Like my joke above. People were crying all about nerfing Griffins. If anything, the ability to make money grew more.
News Flash!! The sky is in fact not falling.
