The problem is the community favoring this type of gameplay almost exclusively. I would rather they didn't put so many restrictions back in place to the point where XP parties are the ONLY way to go.

The solution? Find like-minded people on your server and party with them. Clearly you're not the only one who despies PL so find a LS that doesn't condone it or at least people who want XP parties. I'm sure if you looked you'd find at least one full group of people who feel the same way as you.

Personally though, I don't give a damn about people using PL. What I've told the people I play with is: I don't care how you get to 50, it doesn't matter to me. What matters is that you know how to play your class. If you intend to take a class as your main, make sure you know how to play it. That is what matters to me.
How would changing the claim system to what FFXI had put restrictions on players? I think the current system is worse then FFXI cause not only does it allow PL it can cause you to get hate on other peoples mobs. I've been casting on CNJ and had people hit the mob I was casting on rather often so I would have to stand there while they kill it. Me as a 24 LNC hit a NM and a much higher level hit it right after I did. The higher level was forced to tank until I could do enough dmg to take hate. The only nice thing about this system over FFXI system is the fact that if someone gets a NM your hunting you can walk over and kill it for faster respawn.

I'm tired of the like minded player speech. What should I do when the party I've been in for the past 2 hours needs to change camps but instead someone decides to turn into a PL? It happens a lot when the exp slows down. The more and more I party the more I realize that the party system is very broken.

I'll use this one again. If they put god mode in the game would you support it? It would be your choice to use it and everything.
