That's just the point, isn't it? Competitive gameplay usually means that someone wins and they get rewarded for it. In WoW, anyone can "win" regardless of how good they are, which can make the game less appealing for competitive people. How appealing would football or basketball be to play or to watch if, at the end, everyone was declared a winner and they hugged it out? I'm not saying one or the other is better, just that some people will prefer a game that's more accessible to everyone and some people will prefer a more competitive atmosphere.
Huh... that statement sounds uncannily like the logic of the No Child Left Behind Act. But yet, we support that. Off topic, I know, but if we support behavior like that in one system (ie, everyday life), why should any of the snotlings (er, sorry, younger kids and/or teens) expect any less elsewhere? Go figure..
