    If we had polls that impacted anything, Neo Dynamis would have been positively ruined by the vast majority of this forum that still does not understand that every job in the game can trigger weaknesses there.

    Once you realize how piss-poor informed your average forum-goer is, you start to take their kneejerk reactions with a massive grain of salt.

    I don't really think dreamlands need sidegrade gear dropped from arch bosses and NMs when it's currently the only place to use a glass and farm Dyna the old way.

    New dyna is good because 5% of the people playing know what to do, and old dyna is good because the other 95% doesn't/can't do it anyway.

    Win-Win

    Polls aren't really needed. The thing is that the forums tend to be a lot of people complaining that they are not pleased with little things. I'm sorry that someone's melee SMN isn't as good as the other jobs, or that something doesn't drop enough for you. It's not necessarily that the game needs a fix, it's that people never seem to be satisfied. When we finally get everything "perfect" like folks want, people will complain because we'll have everything with 90-100% drop rates, we'll have our uber-epic weapons done within an hour, and then we'll be out of stuff to do and they'll complain that they want new stuff despite not knowing how much work has to be put into it.

    Yes, this is a bit of an extremist reaction that people could have, but I've learned that most of the outspoken folks fall under the extremist category.

    tl;dr: Polls {No Thanks}.

    I want a pole update. WAR can't wield any of the great new polearms released. I miss putting my B skill to semi-good use.

    The majority of people are wrong. In fact, we're all wrong ultimately, but that's a philosophical discussion for another time. More to the point: the vast majority of people who vote would wind up voting in favor of something which would completely unbalance the game and alienate reasonable players one by one. They might even wind up voting for something they later regret (Oh wait, this actually makes things too hard/easy). The primary shortcoming of a true democracy is that most people are stupid, misguided, or too easily swayed by unimportant things such as emotion.

    SE has made many mistakes in the history of the game, but they've done a better job than a majority of the forum hounds here would have done in their place (MAKE MY FAVORITE JOB STRONGER THAN THE OTHERS LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL roflcopter away)

    Technically it's a statistical discussion, since philosophically nothing restricts us from being right. Whether we know if we're right or not, or whether we even can know or not, those are philosophical discussions.

    Or by pretty colors and sounds. It's why policitians spend tons on their designer/musician teams for marketing campaigns. Imo all political information should be presented on a text-only form on a website, with no advertising whatsoever. Or not visible to the person at all, only read to you by Microsoft Sam.

So in responce I suggest this to the FFXI staff.

    Before implementing any updates, issue poles to see how supported the content is by the community at large.
    Edited for spelling: farce, response, polls, also chalk and multiples in another of your posts. No apology, poor spelling and grammar drive me up a pole.

    But then all politically parties would be equally hilarious. Or at least their propaganda.
