Thanks!

Just because you turned it back to him and asked his opinion again it doesn't change the fact that you assumed something completely contrary to his judgment and posed it as a fact, When it really isn't.


Your whole argument from the start is about "same thread" and "your opinion". Sounds to me you're against people voicing their opinion, and mad at the reps cause all that your enlighten on those threads You've posted in, really didn't get any feed back as to much facts and picking that this thread is the same and similar to others, sure I agree it's kinda the same trust me if a rep want to delete more this or anything they will in their own time. You know how many threads are the same and similar in ways.

I never claimed to speak for everyone. I also never claimed that you're alone in your opinion. I'm just telling you there's another. If no one agreed with me they wouldn't have liked my posts. So yes, I am, as a matter of fact, representing more opinions than just my own. I'm not saying it to make myself sound superior, because, again, these are opinions. All of it. All of what you said and all of what I said. We can define who's reasonable or not, but we can't define who's right, because there is no right. But I not alone in thinking that 12 lines are not enough (apparently).


There isn't 6 pages arguing against me, it's just you, your OCD and your opinion that has been stepping out of topic since you started posting in this thread, are you mad? As you can see most posters are suggesting to use windower. Which I disagree because we all know the reasons why. I am sure there are others within their own opinions that would like the Macro system adjusted. Mostly many in this thread agrees with me, That having (6) lines sucks cause having 2 macro sets or more for a gear swap and we would like it changed. It's seems you're shy voicing your own opinion and worrying about others, you should have just said from the start that you would rather have 32 lines. You're judging the whole side of a argument on the like Score!!.

So you're arguing syntax now? Why is gear swap okay, but weapon swap isn't? And yes, weapons are, as a matter of fact, gear (and no, a shield is not considered a weapon, even though you can hit people in the face with it).


That's a very interesting thought you have there. The main, sub, ammo you can do an action with and main, sub, ranged you'll reset TP, although head, body, hands, legs, feet, back, etc will not. Is one of the reasons I feel you shouldn't be able to. Hmm thinking about 32 lines, only would need 1 macro to do said action/gear swap/weapon skill/nuke etc, the mentality you have on this subject kinda gives me the impression "Go big or go home?" I do find both ways helping though.

Ask yourself can we gear swap now within FFXI, have we always been able to gear swap from release. How does it effect someone that does not gear swap. We will never know the answer to said question cause that falls into personal preference. The only thing we could do is assume. But asking questions and having your own opinions when others are involved using their opinions isn't wrong. Things that should matter is having an open mind. Also I'll let you in on something not everyone uses a keyboard nor only uses a controller to play FFXI.

Again, completely ignoring the question. I ask you, why is 32 lines bad? What speaks against it? I explicitely stated that I have no use for it and that I don't know what people can use it for. That's not the point. The point is, why not?

Here's a fictional scenario:
- Change 15 pieces of gear
- Cast a spell
- Change 15 pieces back

Happy? Now tell me why I shouldn't be able to do that if I wanted to.

I never said 32 slots "lines" are unreasonable, Yeah my main OP is for 12 Macro lines and you feel the need to have 32 Macro lines that's fine. Seeing that there is 20 macros within one book and 10 pages I feel 32 lines for each Macro is a bit much. One macro page would be 640 lines, Books 6400 lines, all Books 1,128,000 lines. no matter what Square Enix do if they do anything to the Macro system hopefully it's a blessing. The main reason why I chose 12 lines, I found it to be more reasonable. At the end of the day we will have our 6 lines and you'll have your;

That's the problem with all your posts, "You don't care" all you're looking for is an argument.
