    On a side note, I'm originally from Texas and now live in the UK.
    Wrong, this is the same game that you used to play, only better.

    Don't forget that this isn't the first time the way people got experience points changed. People used to level in the tombs, the labyrinth, Bibiki, and on before RotZ and then sky became the leveling grounds, and things changed again with ToAU and again with WotG.

    You're just being a child because you got left behind.

    Your looking for a game that never changes? Buy a single player game.

    This is an online game with thousands of players. Even if Square enix never made a single change to the game (and by some strange miracle people kept playing), the game would change regardless, because the people change. Your favorite old slow exp party scenario still exists, but the people who liked it don't like it any more. You don't want SE to change the game back to the way it was in 2005. You want SE to change the players back to the people they were in 2005. And they can't do that. To be honest, it's getting a little depressing.

    Yes, you are delusional. You keep complaining because nothing is being done about your complaints. It will likely never get done. Every one of these threads is the same. A couple of likes on the OP, and then the second post telling the OP that his idea is terribad ... with a ton of likes.

    This particular thread's OP has hit a record high of 6 likes. That means there are enough of you to go start a party and leave the rest of us alone.

    I'm guessing because like how you seem to be now, you were stuck in the leveling area of the game. The exact part many people hated, and was changed. Now you don't like leveling how it is.

    This is why it has been said you should leave FFXI. If you don't like it you should leave now because alot of others DO like it. Now if alot of people hated it, and only a few liked it, maybe there would be a good reason for change.
    Again I say, if it was still here as you all claim it to be, then why are people still complaining? Are we all delusional?
    It is there if you can find enough people who agree with you to do it. If you can not find enough people who agree with you to do it then yes, it can not be done as you wish. I wish I could do Assaults alone rather than with a group of 3 because I have had a hard time finding 3 people available to do it every few days. If you can find the people, you can do what you want, if you cant, then solo, you have that choice, you can do it, if you do not like it, then sorry but leave now, because almost no one wants this.

    As appalling as it might sound to the rest of you, party grinding (as it used to be) was probably my favorite thing to do. After I moved on to FFXIV and found that there, too, was the same exact 'problem'. That in turn frustrates the hell out of me. There ought to be a game for you, and there ought to be a game for us. This was, at one time, that game for me, but it's been hijacked.

    It most definitely is not. This is completely different. But as I already pointed out to you several pages and frustrating replies ago, you did not buy a game. You bought a license for a service, the service being access to a game that SE is developing. Notice the "is" part. The game is in constant development. Which is why you also don't pay monthly for a game, but for a subscription to renew your license for another month. And which is precisely why you can choose to quit at any time when the service is no longer appropriate for you or does not provide you with the entertainment you desire.

    And sure, as a paying customer it is your full right to come on here and complain. But this pointless arguing is really tiring.

    It does take two to tango. A bit self-defeating in this statement.

    Isn't GoV "party grinding"? Sure, it's an expedited form of grinding, but party grinding nonetheless.

    If you don't want to do GoV, then you're just being stubborn.

    Keyword: Expedited. There was a tempo set a long time ago as far as rate of progression that in recent times has been replaced with a fast-forward button. If people didn't like that pace, they should have gone back to WoW and stayed there.
