    Okay, Really. First off, Play-time has nothing to do with Intelligence, Skill, or knowing what you're talking about. Some of the biggest idiots I know in the game always fall back on "I've played longer so I'm right" as their argument when their Stupid Is exposed.

    You are being completely hypocritical. You are bickering and complaining about NIN's throwing not being strong enough(AKA ISNT DOING ENOUGH DAMAGE) , While in turn ranting about how no one cares about anything but Damage, even going so far as to compare this game to a FPS. Hypocritical

    You're only argument for wanting this Role-play Narutard Bullcrap Throwing to be useful is that it was there in other games at that it NIN's by job should be RP Shuriken Throwers. By this logic, Ninja Gaiden includes Multiple weapons, Including Giant scythes... IDK about you but the Hayabusa clan was boss, Why aren't you complaining NIN doesn't have A+ Scythe Skill? In Ninja Gaiden he did.

    IN past FF Games Ninja's could throw any weapon, So why limit it to Shuriken? How come i can toss my kanagi at the Enemy and permanently lose it like in past FF Games? It happened in other Final Fantasy games, I should be able to throw my Weapon and lose it forever with the chance of whiffing.

    Past FF games were Turn based RPGs, FFXI is a Realtime MMORPG, They are so Fundamentally different comparing them is insane. Past FF games throwing was good because no matter what, You were attacking ONCE PER TURN. in FFXI, Things like Math, haste, Dual Wield, Etc all come into Play. These two types of games are fundamentally different, and unfortunately how FFXI is programmed Ranged-Attacks interrupt Melee Attacks, and create a action delay between your next attack. That and Shurikens barely give any TP at all.

    SE gave Ninja a throwing skill for the reason you described, NIN had Throwing in the past, It made sense to give them Shuriken and Throwing. HOWEVER, It was obvious it was meant to be nothing more than Mediocre-Side Damage at early levels. You can stlil throw Shuriken Even if they're not great damage. You're Allowed to Roleplay.

    Its your terrible arguments, Your bad excuses, your hypocritcal attitude, that is causing this negative Attention. We don't care if you Roleplay NIN, We don't care if you run around throwing Shurikens and making Naruto Macros. Just don't try to force your tired, played out, Gimp perspective on NIN like we're the wrong ones for playing the job right.

    We do not hate you, I don't even entirely hate the idea of NIN's being able to utilize throwing more, its just that NIN is not designed to be the King of Ranged attacks in this game like he was in past games. we have Ranger for this. There is no reasonable non-game-breaking-way, logical way to buff NIN's throwing to a point it would be useful.

    By all means, Sange every second its up, but don't act like we're the idiots or bad guys just because we don't want to RP like you.
