Kaurie, you've proven my argument for me as you begin to itemize while you maintain a stance that once you hit endgame, content ceases to be relevant. (Which brings to mind this image.)

This means you base relevancy only on the progression mechanic which is a major logical flaw.

All content for leveling is relevant for anyone who wants to level something. Beyond that, much of it is involved in currency grind for introductory equipment required to participate in much endgame content - this includes level 50 dungeons that are part of High level Roulette.

Rewards from content that contain items not tied to Progression mechanic (Glamours, Furniture pieces, Mounts, and Chocobo Baring) remain continually relevant for those who seek these rewards. Again, ignoring parts of the game because it does not interest you does not make it objectively irrelevant. This isn't even touching on Golden Saucer, which is effectively timeless and includes rewards from content you've deemed irrelevant.

There is a heavy bias in your opinion that is skewed intentionally towards a very narrow view surrounded completely on reliance of a progression-based endgame.

The target audience for this game, however, is that of a player who seeks to obtain a variety of goals not tied in its entirety to progression. This is clear in how distributed the content is across different aspects and walks of the game. One of the trade off for this intention, however, is that updates to any one particular vein of play-style tends to be thin and slow coming.

Even so, as have been spoken, content updates come at a rate that is above those of other MMOs. With it, of course, comes the further inflated expectations of the playerbase. A common customer service mantra I cite in this instance: "There's no pleasing anyone."

I hope so to. But if you're aiming to leave the game, what's the harm in being banned?
