Healer is in need because they didn't add a Healer since 3.0

I'd say it's a contributing factor, but compare and contrast the healer forums against the DPS and tank forums, the healer forum is much busier with complaints. There was also a job satisfaction survey that went around and the results weren't favourable to the healers. Whilst not every person who heals is unhappy as I've come across saying "I like the changes" or "I'm enjoying it" but thus far I've found them to be a minority? I have absolutely no issue if those people are enjoying. I don't expect them to have the same opinions/feelings as me.

But there is an overwhelming amount of healer salt with people who don't usually post on the forums appearing to voice their complaints and concerns about healers. Some saying they've changed their mains, myself included. And there's incentive to not queue most roulettes as a healer from the standpoint it's boring for many. I was doing roulettes yesterday, I was SCH originally for the queue boost and a friend said they wanted to join as a tank, I immediately swapped to SMN.

I think there is a mix of reasons why healer is getting so much in need, but I don't think we can just pin it down to the one and say "there, that's it", because there are a few reasons why people aren't queueing as healer or maybe queuing as something else.

I'm not sure where you've been but this section has been a nightmare since 3.0 and everyone is as vocal as they've ever been. Hell if you wanna be real for a second there was doom since even 2.0 where people were saying "White Mage is useless the balance is terrible." etc.

Some loud folks on a forum aren't going to affect queues times. What's affecting queue times is them not adding a healer since 2015.

Why would you want a 4th healer when they have issues with 3?
So we have 2 working healers and 2 broken ones?

Then I have even less idea what the point of this tread is.
The "Duh" part was the correct answer to your thread I guess.

There is a sentiment that people are claiming a massive drop in Healers is due to changes of 5.0.

I'm debunking it with a very obvious statement cause it seems what's obvious isn't so obvious for some.
