Why should caster dps mana be a limited resource?

I can understand for healers because if not they could heal forever.
But for caster dps that cant heal themselves effectively, vs a healer its auto win once the caster dps runs out of health or mana. In woltk healers can do some pretty nice damage, holy fires for 4k dots smites other stuff.
A physical dps never runs out resources and only loses once they run out of health.
It seems pretty stupid to me, i remember blizzard saying they want mana to be something people use carefully and think about. I dont see melee dps having to manage any limited resource carefull at all.

As a warlock, I never run out of mana, whether I be affliction or destro.

Yeah warlocks are a bit of an exception to this. Not mages/hunters/moonkins/ele shamans/shadow priests.
Not that mana would fix most of these classes as they get shut down too easily. Most of these classses get their ass kicked by healers who can dps back and the caster dps can to do anything but die.
I have played a rogue and if mana regenerated as fast as energy and combo points there would be no problem.

I respectfully disagree. I play a rogue as a main, and it's not non-stop GCD-eating action with energy. I don't think it's hard to assume about 30% of my time I'm not spending a GCD due to energy-regen. Mana-users don't have that problem. Whether they be ranged or not, until you go OOM, every single one of your global cooldowns are available to use. I smell QQ for no particular reason in this post.

If mana could regen any faster, it would just be a energy bar akin to rogues.

Hm i didnt think mana classes damage was tons better if they both go full nuke.
Is that really true?

lol have you seen High end PvP?..
if casters didnt have mana it would cause alot of problems in PvP, your view seemed to be more orientated towards PvE
