PLEASE do something drastic about PVP

I love the 3-way PVP battles, OP please don't assume to speak for everyone in your whining.

To be fair, the OP obviously speaks for a majority. That's clear in that PvP has ridiculous queue times now. Frontlines was quite popular in the first couple of weeks, but it dwindled quickly and has been on life support ever since. While I'm sure the actual results differ between data centers, there has been more than enough discussion between players on a wide variety of servers having the same issues.

Long queue times means that it's obviously struggling to find enough players. When it finally does, I never get a full alliance and it tends to be single parties rushing in. By all accounts, arena PvP is even worse and you're more likely to get bored waiting for a group and quit than to actually play.

PvP was clearly an afterthought in FFXIV. I had high hopes for Frontlines, but they just made it into a bigger version of the arena battles. It needs some serious therapy to get back off life support and stand as its own event.
