The problem is that SE are happy to let their customers attack each other over these issues, instead of spending a little time in development to fix a fundamental flaw. They have told us it won't happen, like they told us for years with the 75 cap going up, RDM hitting the front line effectively, and chocobo breeding.

All those things made it in.

However, SE have a very thick history of poor technical knowledge, but with them being a JP company, are often too proud to admit to or accept they have made a fundamental mistake in design. I can only imagine how much head bowing took place at head office when XIV got the go ahead for a rebuild (and I lolled so much at how the 2 desginers spent around 20 minutes at the start of the first 2 videos just bowing their heads and apologising). What they need to do is absorb like World of Warcraft has done. Look at their addons. Omen is now ingame, Prattle is now ingame, Deadly Boss Mods for the most part is ingame, Quest Helper, and many many more, because their community, while vile to the point of execution, is listened to far more than this games.

We aren't asking for you to change the world SE, just get over yourselves and give us the basic functionality the game should have had since Patch 1. This is a simple list:

Unlimited, or greatly extended macro slot lines (You gave us more macros in total, now let us expand them)
TP Viewer across Alliance (how you haven't put this in yet, when one of the core battlefunctions relies on it is beyond any normal reasoning)
Ability to stop your target blinking when selected (another core mechanic that while great in function, in practicality drives you mental)

If you can honestly say that the above 3 functions are not possible because the PS2's power won't allow it, then im sorry, but your developers are seriously lacking in education. I can tell you now that a version of the above functions are available for both Xbox and PS2 also, so if a few smalltime basement fans can knock up something like that and plop it onto a memory card, im pretty sure a multi-national billion dollar company can too. Heck, if you don't know how to do it, contact the makers of said softwares and for heavens sake BUY IT, or ASK THEM HOW IT'S DONE, or HIRE THEM AND EDUCATE YOUR CURRENT EXCUSE GIVING TEAM!
