What is up with all the lvl 70's?

I don't mean just on our server. While browsing through the WoW.com forums, I see all these level 70's posting. I thought Bliz was going to make it hard to reach level 70? I heard that it could take as long as it did from 1-60, but in 1 week? Come on Bliz, make it somewhat difficult.
 
You are talking about the average "power gamer" that does nothing but play WoW every waking minute. At my current pace, I expect to hit 70 sometime next year :) This is miles behind how long it took me to get to 60, but I have more of a life these days.

:edit: Please don't take this out of context, I am not looking down at anyone. How someone chooses to spend their free time is their decision alone to make. I have been told that my opinions sound crass and rude, please be aware it is not my intention to hurt anyone in any way. :edit:

I really am suprised on how easy they made it to level. It might scale but 60-61 was just about the easiest thing I have ever done. 61-62 is not looking that much harder. So much for the 60-70 is the equivalent of 1-60..
 
I doubt that it will take 10-15 days of /played to get 60-70 done, but i bet it will still take 5-8 days of /played, for the average player.

Personally, I'm in no hurry. Yes, I want to see the new End-Game stuff, but I'm enjoying the scenery and quests along the way.
 
As a 69, I can attest that the XP keeps rolling in. The zones are so full of quests that you can get a level in a half per zone, easy. Most of the quests have been straight forward and non-frustrating. There are not nearly so many "collect X random drops off of Y mob" quests. There are a few, but not like before. Also, the dynamic spawn rate makes things go much faster. If you're methodical, grab all the quests for a zone, then run down the list and keep thottbot at the ready if needed, you can pound out XP very fast.
 
I am no where near level 69 (62 with Mimbari atm), but I agree with John by "grabbing all the quests in the zone" that you can. In fact, in the first zone, I grabbed 2 seperate quests that required me to kill the same thing (one required me to kill 6 and get a drop, the other simply required me to kill 10) and each kill counted for both quests. Double the xp for the same kill FTW!
 
Having been to level 70 once, I'm in no hurry to repeat it. I am spending some time on each of my characters, sharing some of them with my kids and enjoying the journey to 70.
 
Well I am looking forward to taking Darth to lvl 70. While I am eager to get to lvl 58 ASAP, I plan to take my time getting to 70. One thing I have found out about myself, having now played two characters to 60, is that I enjoy getting to the maximum level more than being there.
 
Personally, I think there are two reasons for the ease of leveling.

1) We tend to be overgeared, although the quest rewards seem to deny that. But bear in mind that any piece that you have not replaced (like my Aged Core Leather Gloves) is a piece that is over-powered so far.

2) The abundance and availiability of quests. Indeed, it is good to not have to grind or travel between provinces just to find out IF there are quests.
