    1) At the very beginning of the post is a request not to cut snippets or summarize it, because cutting parts out eliminates a lot of the context which you have also eliminated from the post.

    2) The post was about the implications of modding and the negative impact certain mods were potentially having on their revenue (among other things).

    3) None of that post has anything whatsoever to do with XI

    4) As I said above, XI has far lower operating costs and thus less need to have things like a cash shop etc.

    5) because XI has far lower operating costs, they've been leveraging it to increase revenue with the XI crossover raid and the resulting interest getting some people to try XI, particularly with the incentive of occasional discounts on the XI sub fee. Clearly this has had at least a modest impact because XI player activity has increased and XI's highest pop server got closed to character creation and server transfers.
