I'm surprised you keep coming back to FFXIV. I recognise your name from various FFXIV related forums and I find myself rather concerned - much of your discussion regarding the game is negatively worded and you seem to often express a desire for sweeping changes to be made for your own convenience even if they do not fit the game's model/pattern.

Dare I say it but you may very well be happier elsewhere. Or at least happier here if you acknowledge that the current model works for a great many people playing this game and is related to why they chose FFXIV as their MMO of choice.
