So your sarcasm and snarkiness isn't appriciated. I should be able to use any job and be useful in content, not just WHM and WAR and (insert mainstream job here). I shouldn't be FORCED to press the Change Job button, I should be pressing it because I want to play that job and not because I have to.

I went through all of the last 12 years finding ways to beat content with the jobs I enjoyed the most. I had no problem doing this, inspite of all the people insisting that you must be XYZ job to be useful (which IMO is bad game design). I beat most of CoP on SMN inspite of the alleged "uselessness" and the crap I got for playing a mage job as a Galka was unbelieveable. But I did it anyway, and we had fun, and in the end it didn't really matter. So to hell with conformity.
I agree with both you and Stompa on this. I was more like Stompa, in that I enjoyed the other jobs too. I know people who absolutely hated that they couldn't do end game on their main. Our dynamis leader would allow BSTs and PUPs to go. BST wasn't good for dynamis, so I preferred to go as another job, but I really never understood why people were so anti-Pup. I know Pup has evolved over time, but even back then, it seemed like a very useful versatile job. A good pup was a joy to watch.

People are different. All people should be able to enjoy their jobs.
