Holy moly! Dude, you are just digging in your heels aren't you?

First of all, a WHM will almost never be overlooked in favor of a RDM. They do two completely different things at endgame, and suggesting otherwise just shows, as Del has said, "an ignorant point of view."

That was an example I threw out there based on one of the very first posts made by BoB in this thread which implied that people have been telling him that white mages become unwanted toward the end of the game. I wasn't trying to get into specific strategies of end game playing. I have to say this again, IT AIN'T THAT DEEP MAN.

My problem with your argument, is that it seems you're suggesting that players should do whatever they want to do, and there won't be consequences.

No, I never said that, nor do I think I even suggested that. I gave a personal account of my experiences in the game. A personal experience that lacked the many discriminations and rigidness that makes up your view of the game.

Your argument has always been about how strict the FFXI community is. I've already said that this is probably true for end game material. You have presented your view off FFXI and I accept it as one piece of the whole FFXI experience. I have given my view of the game which I have over and over stated comes from a different aspect of the game, the non end game aspect. And yet you seem really really invested in refuting everything I said, even though I've said in pretty much every single post that this is all stuff that has come from my own personal experience of the game which has been filled with more casual and relaxed players than super strict ones.

So ok. You keep sprouting off about how harsh this game is. I've already said my piece and it seems like BoB and Co. are going along swimmingly, meeting great people and having a lot of fun which is fantastic and I hope their fun continues as long as they're playing the game cause that's really what it's all about.

I'm not being defensive, I just think you're full of it.

xDD

Ok buddy, you're not defensive at all. I'm not judging you man and I'm not discrediting the way you play the game. I give mad props to anyone who can handle end game stuff cause it takes skill and dedication. So you really don't need to jump down people's throat when they present a different outlook on things. Just cause I disagree with some of the things you've said doesn't mean I disregard them. I just thought your views were very one sided and didn't present the many many aspects of the game and the many many people who play the game who are not so strict or as inflexible as you made it out to be.
