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.
This is ridiculous. All jobs are useful to a point (some NMs have certain resistances/immunities). Each job has it's strengths and weaknesses. You have to use a variety of jobs to complete content.... 18x WAR is not going to cut it. You should not be whining that you should be entitled to come whatever you want. If you only have one or two jobs, then you aren't being flexible enough and if you attend the event in that state you are just leeching and hurting the group. Yes there is usually more than one way to complete content, but if your group is 17/18 and has no WHM, guess what... you need to pony up and go WHM. The leader of your group should be looking at the strengths of each of the players. If you're a yagrush WHM and your DD isn't as good as the other DDs.... don't complain if you get chosen to come WHM.
