I generally don't comment about the stupidity of posts, I'd have 10 000+ posts if that was the case. But you sir have tipped the scale. Go back to when SE didn't get the bright idea of rejuvenating zones by adding books and monsters for higher level players to get 50~ xp per kill while doing pages (that aren't even rationally near each other). As a level 75 player I could run through these zones and not aggro, as a level 30 player I could run through these zones without aggro. The façade made from the dev's team sloth is no reason to defend their mistakes. I feel like making inflammatory comments towards your ethos but I'll avoid that. News flash, not everything SE does is correct, remapping monsters in zones and making high level monsters fit into low level zones was an example of a horrible idea spurred by their lack of imagination to make zones geared towards higher level players.

Sic, the OP is mentioning how SE quarter assed the level 99 increase, it feels to me, and im sure many other members that level 99 was an esthetic change rather than anything else. But since SE rather spend resources on other projects, no matter how asinine they are, we get this lame façade of FFXI that fan boys like you defend, it is tiring...
