A Simple Request from Thieves: An upgrade to Thief's Knife.

FGS everyone, give it a rest. This debate has all the intelligence, wit and dynamics of a grade school playground argument where each child believes they need the last word.

Move along folks, nothing to see here.

Thank you for being about the only mature one on here. It is obvious I made mistakes in explaining my reasoning behind things and that is fine as I'm only human, but this whole "I am the authority on this topic and you are not" attitude is complete bs. I am more of the attitude that if I'm going to be bothered to party I am there for the sake of the party and not my own ego. If I have to take a hit in dps by equipping the knife to improve drop rates for the party then I will gladly do so and just keep the dagger equipped at all times. I understand that isnt for everybody but that is just fine for me. My damage alone will not completely kill the overall damage out and kill rate of the party if I am the only one taking the dps hit.

Despite whatever I said it was NEVER EVER meant as hey this is the only way or even the best way just an alternative way. Anyone and everyone can TAKE IT or LEAVE IT. All this overreaction name calling and insulting was really uncalled for really. I mean if anyway has the time to really be offended by anything I said, if I was them I would really re-evaluate the time being spent in playing this game, reading this forum, and see that I am obviously neglecting the rest of my life or there is something seriously wrong inside me that I'm taking people post so seriously to even be offended by it. Alas not everybody is me unfortunately. Sad thing I was even starting to respect Frank at one point for not being that way til I felt that had change but it doesnt matter. Me respecting him is probably about as important as any of you respecting my viewpoint no matter how off the grid you think is so that to is acceptable and no skin off my back.

In any case from what I seen in game and on these forums about the interaction of players about differing points of views from anything other than what has been "established" is what I feel is killing this game off and scaring off new players who would otherwise be comitted to the game. The percieve inflexibility or unwillingness to veer outside the "COMFORT ZONE" is amazing to me but not shocking. Its your money and you play how want I get that but if you really love this game and want it to continue to grow and prosper so that you can keep playing for years to come one might reconsider. Otherwise done be suprise if FFXI as well as FFXIV 2.0 doesnt get better and degrades to point they all get shut down. To each his own but I will continue to play solo and occasionally help any beginner who seem to seriously like the game and encourage them to try many different things to find what suits them and not just go with the status quo because everybody else says they should. I've seen people waste plenty of gil and the time to get that gil because of stuff like that and seen first hand what it does to people and them want to play after it. Guess that isnt important on here though.
