@Naoki Yoshida-> Make Samurai a Tank class!

The statistic is literally just "people with the job at 60," not any metric of how much a job is actually played or used in content.I for one would love to see a statistic for, say, the percentage of DRK players who have it as their only tank at 60, but already had, say, PLD at 50 or higher, because I honestly doubt I'm the only player who "switched" tank mains (just as a similar number probably switched to the greatly improved 3.0 WAR).

Oh, well, that muddies things even further. One moment, I am gonna go comb over the census even further to gather more data.

Oh I completely agree with you, I'd very much like to know how exactly is that data collected and if I only need to level a tank to be considered one.
I'm mostly going with what we know for now.

Nevertheless, if the data does count active tanks, you can't say DRK wasn't a massive success by being the new most played tank job by far.

I am not saying DRK wasn't a huge success, I believe it was a success but I don't agree with the argument that DRK is the sole purpose for this 2% population raise. That's where I am skeptical and would like more data. I agree that DRK was a big success and a beloved addition, once I finish LvLing WAR, I will be switching over to DRK in order to create an awesome Black Rose cosplay from .Hack!
