Crafting is fun!

[Lyrinn]

I didn't say anything such thing. Someone said "a crafter can only craft two or three items a week." That's incorrect, and you know it.

That's exactly what you said. Just because something is technically possible doesn't mean it's feasible, and buying mats every single week at current prices isn't feasible.

Then why are you doing it?

If you expected crafting to be a license to print gil, and are unhappy because it did not turn out that way, I have no sympathy for you. The easy mega-gil are gone, at least until 3.1, and good riddance.

It's a game, not a job, you should play it because it's fun. So craft because you enjoy crafting, or don't bother.

You have reading comprehension issues, given that you don't understand half of the complaints in this thread. We want to craft without spending hours of mind-numbing gathering to do so. The reason why gil plays such an important factor to that is because if you're buying mats, you need a way to recover the expenditures. Ask anyone on Ultros who has tried competing with me on the MB and they'll tell you I'm a MB fiend. I couldn't care less about profit margins, as long as I can keep buying and selling to craft. And don't even bother responding with something stupid like, "just craft white stuff." A monkey could press a macro button and craft those.
