The test server is more fun than the real game.

This entire thread can be summed up in three words: Learn to play.

Now that is one hard-core kitty! I remember those days...like it was yesterday and (poof) now they're gone. SE need to create a seperate server for the nostalgic parties. BCNMs were the way of the Gil-Finder back then... somewhat the same for some but we need new equipment and gear for drops. BCNMs are so rehearsed now, it's easy money people don't need to pay for the stuff, they'll just go get it for themselves.

My first job to 75 was Paladin and I beat Maat with it too. Hard-core leveling will never be the same...

I've actually been thinking about doing some royal jellies only for the cash. Sure, you can make cash from cruor, but sometimes it's nice to keep it for brews. Doing a couple of RJs could net you an easy 1-2 millions if you're just a bit lucky. I could also use refresh and phalanx from that fight. Even if those are more affordable, it still saves me cruor equal to one brew :p.

I decided to transfer my mule's cruor to gil and not brews when I realised he sucks at brewing.

You are wrong.

When Undine opened a /sea all showed around 400 people. Today it showed 37.

To be fair there is several content blocked due to lack of participation, and being a copy server there's no benefit to your main from being on there other than to test whatever suits your fancy.

It also gets boring rather quickly.

It is a "test" server it serves it's reason for it's exsistence it was not meant to be a main home. SE made it to cut down on future server maint and to get feed back on things before they come out. i don't see the problem with it.

What's borring is trying to skill up for days and not getting any. What's borring is trying to put together a group of under geared people to try and get something decent. What's borring is having to grind for money. People have been ignoring the fact that I asked for a happy medium. There has to be some kind of compromise to get past the grinding crap and get on with the real game.

Nearly everything you are talking about was 10 times harder before the slew of updates made them more accessible. If anything, SE should implement a test server circa 2004 to show people how much easier it is now to get things done and make money. Your river of tears would run dry.
