I don't need to read it, obviously we have different point of view, take it or leave, sing it or not. Even put petition again how ppl are happy, maybe SE will look at it and say: Hey guy quit that right now, too many ppl are happy, we need issue this asap, bunch of income will flood us.
Seriously stop been such of ignorant.
The point isn't that we have different points of view, the point is that only one point of view (yours) is allowed to voice itself to the DEV Team in your thread. That's just stupid and self serving.
But whatever, I followed advice and made a pro-changes thread.

Just wow, i really hope SE/DEV are not that dumb and just end to ignore who unhappy form such of change just because the general player are positive about it. If is the case then be it, if SE think is logical to loose player just to make other happy then as Starcade stated in one of his thread (that i found rude) SE don't deserve to stay alive.
Agreeing with Starcade reduces any credibility you once held to nothing. You know something? If Square enix waiver because some people have dissented I will lose a lot of respect for them. I might quit, because I will have seen that a few vocal people opposed to something can veto an entire change that they know very little about. I will be tempted to quit if SE lack the integrity and tenacity to stick with this.
Can people please stop with the slippy slope bull. Guess what? Our opinions on nuclear energy plants (and I disagree with you on that too, I think they're a cleaner, more efficient source of energy and are actually quite safe) bear no relevance to this conversation. Dynamis and Nuclear energy ARE NOT IN ANYWAY SIMILAR, it's a freaking terrible analogy.

This is exactly why I made the other thread, and exactly why I post on these forums. Someone has to be around to bash down ideas that are entirely and outrageously stupid and a waste of development time, energy and money.
And to ensure nobody tries to put words in my mouth, no I do not think I'm the end all, be all of judgment as what is and is not stupid. Or that all decisions should be up to me or be under the fire of my scrutiny. I'm just trying to provide some aspect of a "voice of reason", and I know there's others posting on this forum who feel the same.
I'm not trying to change things, just make sure that the Ilax's, Krystal's and Starcade's of this forum don't get their way either.
At the moment, my thread has more signatures, indicating that more people want the change than do no not want it. This game was not created just for you, and SE will likely go with whatever choice is more popular (again, at the moment, it's people who like the change and welcome it), or ignore the threads altogether and do what they want anyway.
If the changes make more people happy than they do unhappy, there's literally no reason why they shouldn't go forward with their plans. This is precisely what I was talking about, you have been living in your own world where you think so many people are unhappy about this, and that you needed to bring this to their attention. These forums are not a place for your personal crusades. This is where we can discuss the game and possible changes to it. Your thread was anti-productive to not only the discussion, but to bringing the players point of view to SE.
Again, your idea was stupid. Your thread was stupid. My thread is also stupid, but was done to bring some semblance of balance in voicing opinions that yours was designed to ignore. I personally hope both threads get deleted, as neither (by themselves) really has a place here.
By creating a thread that purports one side of an issue and actively excludes opposing views, while a thread exists that shows the discussion around the issue, both for and against, appears to be an attempt to portray that your view is the popular view. It happens all the time in politics. And is usually started by the side that is not the more popular one.

I don't know why you put politic into this, SE monthly fee is not a TAX that i have to pay. Is my right to play it or not. Is not because this update make you happy that is going to make me happy.
But there a logic here, you where still playing before this update, and you will still play. Who say i will do same? Is not because SE would cancel this update that they can't make another one that would make me and you happy.
