It wouldn't take away from casuals. It would actually assist them. Tojils and such would still happen, as would outside bosses. They'd be less common but they'd still happen.

Your point of view would work if everyone already had Delve Kis and knows Delve already. I would hate to see more Duel Boxers, Mules show up to WR making it even much more laggy than it already is.
Time restrictions in Delve prevents that from happening. Why waste 1 slot in the alliance for a mule when people know earning max amount of Plasm requires team work from everyone.
People also returning to FFXI fresh starting new with SoA would not be able to learn delve, NMs, New party setups if no one groups up for Delve plasm anymore.
Not every part of the game is at the same level. Delve and Wildskeeper Reives are 2 different tier levels. Your idea would force players to skip Delve altogether and promote those who never did Delve or obtain Kis to show up at WR. Because they don't have any Delve gear, that could make it even worse to have players show up gimp.
Skirmish and Delve Tier is not that far off in Tier design but because SE gave us a way to skip Skirmish, this would be the same situation.
When I say Casuals, i mean players who use more than 1 account, or have multiple characters.

Outside NMs would happen frequently enough, as they currently do. SE could also do more to entice players to go to this.
Pug delve runs would still happen, just not as frequently. So yeah, Mega Boss KIs might be harder to get, but the boss KIs would be easy enough.
It's not perfect but SE has got to do something, rather than ignore us and ignore us...
and always ignore us.
Seriously, it's like the targeting thing in colo reives. Being that its not a population thing (with 3 people, reives can still be impossible to target sometimes), it should have never gone live. They had to know, they just didn't care.
Yeah but outside NMs are harder than inside Delve. And how can people do outside NMs if everyone's attention is directed to Wildskeeper reives?
Tier design is there for a reason. Its takes gear to obtain gear.
To say all SE does is ignore us? Would mean they never had to give us 2 decent updates and adjust things like Colonization reives, Wildskeeper Reives Ki cost, and everything else. >.>
The title of your post says you acknowledge SE made adjustments to WR but is not good enough and needs to be readjusted again. That would be a contradiction to your statement saying SE ignores us.
I was being dramatic. Just tired of their silence on everything. We're 30 pages into this, and they don't bother replying. Not even a "we're looking into it", or even a "No, and here's why"
Which could give false impressions to facts. DEVS do things for a reason. Yeah they don't tell us why because then every single time they implement something would mean they would have to tell everyone all the time.
Expansion is only 5 months old. You already showed me you are making very good progress. I don't have half of the things you have but after taking time off from FFXI, my stress level and point of view has changed. I do see efforts from the DEV team. I do see people obtaining gear. I see entering WR is easier than previous conditions of events.

Matsui made this comment not too long ago.
As a result of this there are times when I do not make direct replies to feedback, and as I am not always quoting text it may seem that your feedback is being ignored. Also, there are cases it might feel this way when you don't receive an answer to certain things you were expecting and the subject continues to shift.
The way everyone thinks is different, and while a universally accepted answer is not very realistic, I will continue to do my best to ensure that I connect my responses to our position and conclusions that can be easily understood.

I just finished doing a WK and it took at least 5hrs to do. I am sick of not getting much bayld for my efforts on a job that was NEEDED to kill the thing. Also, how can you say that these are good rewards? I agree with everyone who is saying something needs to be done about it; this is the 7th time I have gotten squat.

2 things:
1) WKR would still take longer and require more participation than delve to earn that 20k plasm (first do multiple skirmish/reives, then participate enough to cap out exp/bayl in wkr).
2) Matsui's response was pretty much blowing that guy off. He basically said "Just because I don't respond doesn't mean I'm not listening to your complaints. It just means I don't care what you think...".
Imagine how unproductive these forums would be (as if they aren't bad enough) if we just ignored differing opinions instead of actually debating with each other. They might as well take away the thread function and make every post a single thread that cannot be responded to like a static website with un-editable pages.
