I don't know why I keep it up-to-date - well I do, it's because I'm anal like that about some things - but a recent patch did a cleaning-up thing which reduced my installation from about 42GB to just under 20GB.
They offered my a month free of Pandaria after completing a survey where I said they were rubbish and should adopt a GW2-like model, but I didn't take them up on it as I honestly didn't think I'd play it. I used up a month timecard I had lying around earlier in the year, but I didn't do anything at all other than sell pets on the auction house - which is like my version of doing Dailies, a sort of repetitive mechanical action when I couldn't think of anything else to do.
It has to be said, I think they have actually done a pretty good job with the Panda thing - they have given quite a few routes in the game to waste your time and ignore your family and they have upped the humour whilst making a few changes to make the game more friendly for the run of the mill player.
Still cannot beat the olden days though, although I did not raid Vanilla at the time, I was there for the war effort and general atmosphere, and have still not found anything to beat raiding in TBC. Shame I did not have more time back then to be on it hard like the rest of the nutters...
I think I've officially fallen out of love with this game. All seems to be the same - get to new top level, grind cash, raid, wait for new expansion, rinse and repeat. For me MoP seemed the same as Cataclysm.
Sub was cancelled ages ago but something kept me from deleting it from my system... then when I reaslised the expansion had been out for ages and I'd not even watched the cinematic well....

Ah well, at least I get to keep my £9 a month.
The same realisation I came to have way through the last bit of WotLK. I would have liked to see Catajism just for the changes to old world - Thousand Beadles full of water etc - but really by that time it was well into rinse and repeat mode. That every Tier at that time all looked exactly the fucking same said it all: Blizz were churning out content in the most business efficient way possible, not for any love of the game.
