So NO. Your point does not hold logic.
    So first of all, where did I say "this is the only way to fix it"? Second, you yourself just said that people who have extensive background in the field...but the thing is not everyone does. Roger and Ebert being one of the earliest examples I can think of, who became film critics at first because they were told to be. Other popular reviewers just doing it without an extensive background in reviewing games, who now run popular channels on youtube. So if there is a fallacy of logic here, it's on you.

EXACTLY what mobile object is a Black Mage (aka TURRET) mounted on? SO to clarify my point on Turrets is that they are stationary damage weapons. I can guarantee you that if you were in a fire-fight and told someone to go get you the Turret, you'd get the biggest "are you an idiot" look ever.
    Well for one in terms of the game it's mounted on legs, second then that negates that BLM should be able to cast on the move with the much vaunted swift and triple-cast abilities, third setting up your gun on in a turret fashion on the field grats better accuracy and cover but doesn't keep you from booking out should the need arrive (such as the arrival of a much bigger gun like a tank). Plus the whole point of putting a turret on a mobile base is so that it HAS the mobility to move out of harms way...again, just like what I am saying the BLM should be able to do. So your logic falls flat, again.

    Complaints...so citing EXAMPLES is now a form of complaining? Wow...I honestly have nothing I can say to that without breaking rules. As for showing proficiency, in what form do you want it? Logs? As in the logs that are against ToS and/or the rules to demand or harass another player about? Those logs?

    Well I suppose you could argue that all things are relative to each other and that from a certain point of view mounting a turret on a ship means it doesn't move...but most people would agree that a turret moves when the object it is attached to moves. Most people would also agree that this is done so that the firepower the turret brings has better mobility so it can be moved as necessary to both maximize it's effectiveness and keep it out of danger from returning fire. But I suppose there is always room for more...unique viewpoints.

The only reason you claim I am a SJW is because I pointed out you were talking to a woman like that, and if I were a guy who pointed it out the response would have been either to 'man up' or 'get a thicker skin'. That alone says more about you, and the community, then it does about me waiting three days after trying to explain my viewpoint patiently before revealing I was a woman in both a snide and frustrated way. Also using the "guys" in quotes wasn't code for misogynists...it was so I didn't break the rules and use more colorful language.
