Reason not worthwhile to reply to a troll

You called me a troll? are you back from your 7 day suspension already? Time to pull out the fist again?

I support the players like the OP who give good comments not the people who want to sweep dirt under the rug.

Maybe maybe not. That's up to you to figure out. Look at the LS i'm in on my FFXI profile You see a leader Linkshell?

No wait, the whole F'n ls quit the and the rest quit the game. Get the picture? I Don't need an AH rank to know fact from fiction. People hated the way the game went and took their money with them.

How do I know this? Real friends explain themselves before they leave/quit and I've been seeing a lot of attitudes like the OP recently.

we do'nt disagree that people leave FFXI, but using AH ranking is stupid!
lot of people never went on community profil or went in to hide everything.
+ we just got a new director, most of what has been added recently was started under Tanaka direction we can hope next events will be better

Making the statement that using the AH ranking is stupid just shows you don't know how to utilize the information from it. So whats stupid the people who can't figure it out or someone who figured it out among people who can't?

Obviously, most people lost touch with what they really want done in this game. The original poster pointed out flaws as people flooded the topic with sarcastic insults to undermine his/her intelligence. WE all agree players are quitting like the OP.

Unless you have another method or inside information about subscribers then you have less relevance then someone who uses the ranking system. The reason why, at least the ranking system uses statistics to back things up instead of full blown conjecture.

So, show us how you figure the approximate gains and losses to the subscriber base. Lets see the flow charts if you want to get serious. I'll give you a hint. Maybe you should look at the census as evidence.

I'm waiting...

Bottom line, people are quiting, and people are joining, it simply seems like more are quiting than joining because people who are quiting are people you know, or see around, people who are new, aren't so easily noticed. People are joining or coming back because the new expansion was announced, people are leaving because the content leading upto that is fairly boring, tedious, or needs more people than you can easily gather to do it.

The are veterans are quitting because they're upset at the direction the game is headed. The new people joining rarely stay very long because the learning curve is to high or they can't get the help they need.

I help a lot of newbies starting out and never see them again after a few days. My experiences say the new people joining aren't staying very long.

In either case, people are leaving, which was the whole point of everything that has been said about the rankings and everything else, why the hell is this continuing?

MMORPGs are gear grinds.
People need to wake up and realize it.
VW is easy-fights for 1~0.5% at better gear.
It's all the same of everything we hear all the time.
The OP just wanted to make a dramatic exit, as if anyone cared.

[Demon6324236]

People do care, it states flaws with the game, and if your saying that the flaws are there due to the game being a MMO, perhaps its not flaws with the game, rather flaws with the genre itself.

It's the genre itself.

They're just going to quit WoW when that becomes a mindless unyielding grind for them. And then they'll quit the next one, until they realize what the core gameplay of an MMORPG is.

The difference is that while Blizzard works to minimize the pain of gear grinds, SE works to maximize it.
