I'd like to have a discussion of the game design, Ulduar, and mages with as much of the WoW community as is interested. My thoughts can be found in this topic I posted for Ghostcrawler to see in the Damage Dealing forums:
http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=18031095988
It is lengthy and that is the reason I won't copy+paste it here. However, I'd like you to read it and respond to it if you would like, but without forcing you to read it, I'd like your thoughts on the current game design of my favorite game, World of Warcraft, its newest and arguably best content, Ulduar, and my slice of WoW, the Mage.

If anything, I was thanking them for how great mages are...
Idiot didn't even read my TL:DR

Before you assail the dude's character, you might stop for a minute to consider the composition of that character.
In simpler terms: L2Read, gnub.

How to fix mages without breaking PvP:
Frost mages first have to realize their place. They have the highest survivability and DPM of all the specs. This has it's place in a few encounters but not many.
highest survivability? i disagree. lolantimagiczone, lolantimagicshield, lolbonearmor, lolrunetap, loldeathstrikeheals, lolbloodworms, lolbloodpresence.. loldivineshield, lollayonhands, loldivinestorm....
Improved Scorch should behave like Improved Shadowbolt OR the Glyph should be a Minor one.
Mana Gem glyph should be minor or offer a spell power enchancement similar to 2p T7.
whole-heartedly agree here
Fix Ignite Munching.
i think bliz has already gone on record stating that they're not quite sure how to fix it at the moment, but it appears that they are working on it somehow.. idk where i read it, so don't ask for a source. lol
Spell Steal Priorities or lower overall mana cost and perhaps a talent in arcane to improve the chance or spell penetration having an effect here.
Those would for the most part fix a large amount of issues.
they're considering changes to spell steal.. i think GC mentioned possibly having it steal only buffs that would be beneficial to us (but really.. how many buffs WOULDN'T be useful to us other than... BoM or horn of winter?)
mana gem as a minor glyph would be a
GODSEND
.. espeically for arcane mages.
