Why is RDM invisible right now? Where is the outrage?

"Red Mage is a learning and progression job that's not meant to farm or clear raids" is a meme people came up with to justify the class being terribly weak and in fact, has no basis in the game's actual systems, Red Mage is classed as a regular magical ranged DPS, not a Limited Job, and "progression-only job" doesn't exist for any other role no matter how easy or difficult a class might be.

"RDM is a jack of all trades so it should do awful damage" is also a meme. RDM is a DPS. Its purpose is to do DPS. RDM can't remotely replace a healer, so it should be balanced as a DPS.
