I can see both points in the matter but cyber is right. We're not here to babysit and you can just do a spec swap to level up things as you play others with tomes. Hell my vagalion is like lvl 21 and i have 0 time played on it. But srsly just ask the people and as long as you know the person or make friends with them (i know !gasp) then you can trade it off for a few rounds and move on.
This only pops up when a new race pops up and will die down once people get there fill so just wait it out.
