For those who keep resurrecting that dead topic....

"Stop living in the past"
"Not this thread again"
"FFXI is 20 times better than it was before!"
"Lol, nostalgia is a funny thing"

Yet for those of us who really, know for a fact that pretty much everything about FFXI has pretty much been destroyed in the last few years, from the sense of progression, the now barely-existent community.
No more mystery, exploration, challenge, team coordination; topped off with the fact that the sheer mentioning of this simple fact brings forth droves of people complacent with the virtual chatroom they're paying for.
Lets all just make a mass exodus and find a new MMO to hop over to.
SE is too busy catering to this crowd, and really don't give a damn about us, which seems to be a minority of no real weight in comparison to the GoV hordes.

Whaddya say?
Rekindle that feeling of exploration and challenge with searching for new frontiers, I know I am.

To those who are aching to flame me in a weird quest for self-validation of your opinions, rest assured I'm not posting this to argue with you guys. Nor am I going around bashing FFXI for the sake of being an angry old man, babbling about dem good ole' days. I miss FFXI of old for well, the reasons those of us who do have stated countless times to your apathetic ears. (Well, since this is a forum, eyes.)

More so, I'd like to see how other people feel about just simply finding a new world to be a part of, and if so, which one?
