Sorry about that, I did a quick search through the forums and hadn't seen anything regarding this topic specifically. I should have been more thorough.

I agree completely with your point; a revamp on the crafting system is long overdue. I think that is one of the few systems in this game that has been, for the most part, left alone since the game came out.

As I'm sure many moons will pass before a full crafting overhaul, especially since balance is important, I would gladly spend log in points or even gil to get GP up quicker.
