They just don't understand... :) In fact, many still don't. Even 2 years after release, I still hear DPS players saying "just roll an alt to farm" to healers/prot tanks. And this is coming from knowledgeable people who should know better, not just WoW public forum trolls. One of my raiding conglomerate's DPS warriors actually said that to me late last year in perfect seriousness; I could barely believe it. I think they forget how many grinds are rep-based and require the player who wants the rep to actually do the killing. Off the top of my head, I can think of:

Don't forget your main is the one with all the epics that can make farming oh so much easier. I had an alt back in classic that I rolled to do my farming, but when the xpac hit I decided that keeping two toons geared up was too much work in the short term, and ditched my healer who had been my main since January '05. He now spends his time hanging out in Thrallmar.
