But I most certainly don't miss the absolute hell that came along with running a big linkshell.

When you have 15-30 people together 4-5 nights a week, there are always going to be personality conflicts and clashes. Someone is going to do something that pisses someone else off. People are going to grate on each others nerves. Even the most chill of people will snap from time to time. It was a very high stress environment, especially for leadership.

Now, content is at the point where everything can be lowmanned and people are better able to just relax and goof off without worrying about wiping or screwing over the rest of the group. Dynamis has become drinking game material. Einherjar can be cleared FFA while linking the whole zone on the first pull. Sea and Sky are mostly obsolete, so now no one has to go to those horrible, horrible zones ever again.

More than anything, I like that I'm able to just kick back, have fun with a couple friends, and still complete armor/weapons.
Another negative post. How sad when the OP wanted to make it something fun.
