Are World of Warcraft's enchanters getting short-changed as compared to the other professions? This was Zaplar's point over at the WoW forums, who stated that aside from being an expensive skill to get, enchanting was difficult to make money off. As the poster elaborated in several points:

• We have the fewest BOP recipes of any profession (just the ring enchants I think).
• We have the only profession that cannot sell its stuff on the AH (engineers have it bad too, but we've already ascertained that Blizzard hates engineers).
• We have the hardest and most expensive profession to level. Not only is there no way to make gold (you can d/e and sell mats, but that doesn't level your skill) while skilling up, we have to either sit in a city for hours advertising, or waste enormous amounts of money enchanting our own staff over and over again.
• Every other profession can almost break even by selling the stuff it makes. In enchanting, you spill a lot of gold leveling up, and only make a fraction back by d/e materials. With the new profession, Inscription, coming, I feel very ripped off. Inscription is enchanting, there's nothing else to call it. While enchanters upgrade gear, inscriptors (?) upgrade abilities. But inscription scrolls can be sold on the AH, and enchants cannot. What exactly is the point of this? It's like the fresh prince's parents sending him to bel air, what does it accomplish!?
