WHY DO YOU REFUSE TO LET US GET FULL HUNT CREDIT SOLO

I feel like you misunderstand what group content is. If you think hunts are group content, you are wrong.

Hunts are group content, it is actually group bigger than just 8 in a party. You have whole LS coordinating and calling out marks and which ones to go to first and people all scouting. And you can build alliances of parties for hunts to hunt more effectively and efficiently. It is totally group content. Early pullers are the trouble makers that deserve to be blacklisted and repeated trolling must be reported to the GMs. A well known FC actually disbanded and its trolls left the server because of the terrible reputation they earned.

Which is kind of the point Cutie was making. You can be in linkshells and coordinating with people and scouting out hunts with them, etc. That's group play regardless of whom (if anyone) you're partied with. So no, you don't have to be partied with people to be playing with them.
