In other words of the many wonderful things that all mmos have they choose to ban certain types away from their lives because they had a bad experience with it.

SE historically is a titan. I would expect more from them the solution should never be to quit alltogether. (the solution to the problems people had with open-world HNMs in xi shouldn't be to quit. I certainly hope were not quitters.
the truth is even HNM camping wasnt as bad as people made it out to be in ff11. The problem was lazy people that didnt want to show up and put in the time on the HNMs. I claimed numerous HNM/Kings and guess what i didnt use a bot. FF11 was a game that rewarded people who put time, effort and strategy into the game. ff14 is becoming the lazy mans game. w/ nothing but instance raids planned int he future. If a game only has raids then why not just play a damn console RPG because playing w/ the same 4-8 people is not a MMO experience.
