Not saying it won't work, it looks like it would work very well, but that just won't appeal to some. Especially the casual gamer who is most likely to have the issues. I keep hoping to see a reponse that fits into the flow of the game better, but I guess that won't work.

I think one of the keys is to make the crafting/gathering fit in to the normal flow of things, rather than being an extra. I gained 2 levels last night, and crafted a big bunch of leather, too. I killed, I skinned, I skinned what others left lying about while waiting for the mobs to respawn. I was doing green quests, like Bolty advises, so respawning didn't scare me. I wasn't *re-farming* anything.
What I might have to do later is unknown. However, I probably won't re-farm areas if I don't have to. I will, however, if I need to do some more grinding, and have done the 'human' default area, I'll go do the equiv dwarf or night-elf area rather than grind the same one over and over. I'd avoid that if at all possible, myself.
