Because there's nothing to do. Due to the constant exploiting, it was ridiculously easy to get BiS for everything, rank 8/9 enchants due to the botters, and now there's really nothing more to do in the game.
- Gauntylgrim doesn't have a higher tier of gear and is on an event timer, making it hard for me to play it.
- PvP is an unbalanced mess, making it unappealing to play or invest time into
- The 24/7 exploiting of dungeons, especially Castle Never cheapens the value of all gear
- The majority of players have already quit, including 90% of my guild
There's really no more reason for me to log in, I wanted to call this game my home, but I can't find the incentive to.

1. Able to gain experience after lvl 60. Kind of like Paragon levels in Diablo 3, there need to be some continued progression after 60.
2. Raise level cap for companions so we have a reason to continue leveling them.
3. Gauntylgrim off event timer, it is available at all times.
4. Fix the exploits in the dungeons, ban the botters selling 99 stacks of enchants.
5. Gauntylgrim has a new tier of gear to strive for.
6. Invest some time into PvP to balance it, add more game modes.
7. More specialization paths, classes, gear, zen shop items
So you bought AD with ZEN and bought all of your gear/enchants from the AH and now complain there is nothing to do?
Well don't let the door hit you on the way out.
Also thanks for supporting the community with real money.
Decubis: Dwarf Guardian Fighter: lvl 60
Demic: Human Devoted Cleric: lvl 60

Nice. It's a problem that he COULD do it that should concern you.
Also you seem to share Cryptic's view about him spending real money. Unfortunately, many of these people will never support such a community again so whilst you can smile at him now - just think how fewer games based on this business model are going to fail in the future when these companies begin to reap what they sow.
Plus, we need more room for lower-level players who will purchase my many, many pairs of pants.
I totally agree, in fact, I dont know what makes me login anyomore, i've been spending time on nothing, I even forget that my game is open very often, its getting really boring!
Don't let the door hit you also on the way out.
Totally agree. I've reported the CN window exploit and botting to Cryptic over 2 weeks ago. Neither has been fixed. None of the exploiters and botters have been banned. Cryptic basically wanted the Ancient weapons and Rank 8/9/10 Enchants to be available at cheap prices so that the rich, dumb casuals would buy more Zen and get easily geared out. This game is a cash grab. Always has been, always will be. They don't care about the long-term success and quality of the game at all.
Another tard that ASSumes everyone who is geared out, paid to win.
Even if there wasn't alot of folks with BiS gear, that alone isn't enough reason to log in. I got so over gear grinding in WoW, now it's about having fun doing what I am doing, and once you've run the dungeons a few times its over. Gear is a non issue, that wouldn't motivate me enough. Case in point I don't have gear from Spellplague or CN, and no pvp gear, so by the logic that gear drives game life I should totally still need to log in and get that gear, but I don't give a rat ****, the game is played out.
The problem for me: Too much about CW's is broken and all the other classes suck moose balls. TR sucks like a vacuum cleaner to level solo, cleric is lame, nerfed, and still has bloody ****ing worthless Righteousness, and needs a cleric companion to quest with...wtf? The two fighters both suck alot, not only are they poor extrapolations of the 4E fighter, but for what they are they aren't very good. GWF sucks to level until lvl 35 or so because that's when the decent AoE powers come into play, and their single target dps is garbage. GF's and the marking mechanic are a joke. So out of a meager 5 classes at launch, 4 of them are junk, and the only one that is semi-decent is broke all to hell. Check out the massive list going on in the CW class forum of known bugs, also note it is nowhere to be seen on the recent preview server patch notes.
So all in all, NW is a mess. I started out panning for this game, I had high hopes and alot of excitement, I mean D&D and Cryptic, thought it could be good, I was sadly and disappointingly mistaken.
It's funny how most of the complainers are those who've raced to end game, probably bought plenty of items with AD, and have little or no interest in the Foundry. For me, the Foundry is the real draw of Neverwinter. Without the Foundry I'd completely agree with the OP. With the Foundry it's a whole new ball game.

Once they get it so you can make better boss encounters and iron out some of the bugs in the foundry editor, IF they added a path to progression from running foundry quests (tokens and/or gear drops), then I might find it worthwhile to log in again. But as it stands, the end game isn't the deal breaker, if you read my post above, my issue is that 4 of 5 classes suck imo, and CW's the class I do like, are broken. Fix the game, I'll find something to do then. But at present, its just not in good enough order to keep from frustrating me more than entertaining me.
Now now, b e nice. some people don't remember what an MMORPG is actually for.
Boss encounters: we have been asking for this, but there are ways to make exciting boss fights for Foundry quests. Just have to be creative.
Bugs in Foundry: 100% agreed. But they're not game breaking, just really, really annoying.
Progression from Foundry: indeed, we have been asking for this. The progression is there though. The well-made Foundry quests won't level you as fast as the pre-made content unless you take advantage of the XP-focused, short Foundry quests, in which case it becomes a grind instead of being fun.
Ultimately I'd really like to see the better, longer, more challenging UGC be hand picked to include DD level rewards at the end. We already have the mechanics in place for the Foundry quests that are eligible for the daily rewards. We just need new criteria for DD level rewards in Foundry quests.

BiS Enchants = Bought / Exploited - You should really think before you post.
You can't blame a company for wanting players to spend real money on their game. However I'm not sure how long Neverwinter will last if people can buy their way to end game and then complain about nothing to do. /shrug
There's already plenty of space in the game. Most people that were playing quit before the game was even released. If you enjoy a game that isn't able to release new content and can't afford to fix existing problems because it doesn't have the monetary support needed, you're in the right place. That's exactly where this one's heading.
I am by no means a valiant defender of NW but I miss the Foundry on your list.
Give it a try - not for AD, just for fun. If you are guilded, do the group dungeons with some pals or even have some of you create a group mission for the others to play.
When I was playing EQ back then, I took MMOs a lot more serious than now and if my guild had something like the Foundry, then maybe we'd still be all subscribed.
There's no point in doing CN legit when it's being exploited 24/7
Other than that, what's the point of even getting anything BiS? I could go to the acution house and get everything I need since the constant exploits causes gear to be dirt cheap.
