Well what other kinds of complaints are there besides personal preference and community complaints. I guess you could say technical ones, and I have heard plenty of technical complaints about WoW too.
Universal comparisons: How good the default UI is, how modifiable it is. How laggy the game is. The graphics. Music/sound. Quest/storyline content. Class balance. Armor variation. How each class plays, do they have enough skills? Gameplay. Difficulty/Challenge. Unique locations. Grouping system. Travel system. How well the game accommodates raiding.
IE: If an MMORPG comes out with no way to group more than 5 people, then it obviously doesn't support raiding. Now whether you do or don't like raiding is personal preference. But whether the game supports raiding is a factual piece of information.
If an MMORPG comes out and a large number of the quests don't work, that is above and beyond personal preference.
Every technical and personal preference complaint you could list about WoW could be echoed 2fold by any other MMORPG. That is why it is #1.
