I guess you're saying you don't want me to post the bunch of screenshots I just went and captured of people complaining rudely about the difficulty and threatening to quit over it without asking for help.

If you were to do that, I'd have to spend hours getting a load of screen shots of people asking for help. And I'd only stop when I had more than you.
I repeat: I know it does happen, but it's not as common as people asking for help.
Why don't we let this one alone and instead discuss my point of ow this 80 million requirement won't stop the complaining or the "requests" to lower the difficulty.
I don't see how the number of posts that can be construed as asking for help or asking for a difficulty change is really relevant to anything. My point is simply that there are A LOT of people who do the former, regardless of the fact that there are also people who do the latter. It's not about which is more frequent. It's about the fact that putting a message in game warning people that it's super difficult is not going to stop a huge amount of complaining that it's super difficult.
The 80m requirement won't stop complaining that it's too difficult among, say, the 80-100m guilds for whom it is actually still too difficult, I agree with that. It will presumably stop complaining from <80m guilds that they shouldn't even have been able to enter the event, since they can't actually enter the event.
Really, this all comes back to the point that while you personally might enjoy the opportunity to bring your neighborhood weekend team to fight Manchester United, a lot of other people would not actually enjoy that and would hate that the game allows them to attempt content at which they have zero chance of success. Just look at all the complaint threads about GA and the number of people who have posted that they don't even try when they see that their opponent's roster looks a lot stronger, and the game is terrible for even giving them that matchup.
So because a vocal minority will complain, none of us are allowed it?
Sorry, the idea that this 80 million thing is because they don't want people to moan is just ridiculous.
They don't want players to have a terrible experience because their guild isn't "advanced" enough to have a shot at the new TB map.
Reducing the moaning is just a possitive side effect and obviously never the goal.
But as the post immediately below yours by Lanbo suggests, who gets to choose what constitutes a "terrible experience" for other players? We don't all play this game for the rewards alone - some of us believe that's just a never ending loop, you keep playing to get the stuff that allows you to keep playing. Some of us play the game because we like to play the game for its own sake. Sure, the rewards help because they make us better able to deal with new things but oh wait suddenly we're not even allowed to try the new thing at all!
For me, a terrible experience is not trying a game and failing. A far worse experience is someone else deciding for me whether or not I'm good enough to even be allowed to try. Surely I should be allowed to fail if I want to? If my guild isn't advanced enough, that's up to me.
You have to take into consideration that not everyone is like you. I'm willing to wager that for most players not getting to play an event because they're not ready and playing something else they're more ready for instead is a far better experience than failing horribly at something they are in no way, shape or form ready for just because their guild's leadership made a bad call or is like you.
I have no problem with you failing and potentially having a bad time, but it is in the devs' best interrest to not have that happen. For all i care you do HRS only eventhough you can't even clear p1.
