Gatherers and FATEs

I have to admit, I don't know if this has been addressed already but:
Please, please, make it so you don't automatically join FATEs as a gatherer class. You can't even attack the FATE-monster because it says you need to be a DoW/DoM.
So why force to join, then?
You're not being attacked when you're not level-synced, either!

It is so annoying when you do leves and want to get the speed bonus and all of a sudden a FATE pops right on your leve area.
It either means constant sneaking from one place to the next or constant running away because a horde of Ice Sprites decided to freeze you to absolute zero.

Just let me log away in peace, please....

Probably talking about Walnut logs and the Kedtrap fate...

Yeah, I hear you. It is annoying, however... being a gatherer doesn't make you exempt from mobs hitting you. It is just unfortunate that this spot has that fate on top of gathering area.

Having dangerous foes around a gathering spot is one thing and it's fine. We have stealth for those.

But constantly having a FATE spawn right on top of you is pretty annoying. I always feel like shouting for people to come over and clear it out, lol.
