100% agree with Vicious and Rohelius. Bitching about not getting anything from a certain event week after week? Try year after year, unless your ls blew up from all the bs drama before your turn came. I'd much rather spend an evening with the very real possibility of getting some awesome gear and being disappointed than spend months grinding for someone else with no chance of getting anything.

The thing is everyone's been spoiled by Abyssea. Being able to snag some of the best gear in an evening (or the best weapon in a fortnight) still seems odd to me. I love it mind you, but i'm fully aware that not everything is going to be handed to me on a silver platter right $%%^ing now. Perhaps i'm a bit of a masochist, but it doesn't seem nowhere near as painful as it used to be. Stiff upper lip.....
