For one thing, I don't really remember asking for a free mount. I'll probably rarely use it, versus a Chocobo anyway. If you happen to like the expansion of the micro-menu, you're more than welcome to tell us why you like buttons cluttering your screen.
For that matter, I don't believe I've ever met you, or even posted in the same thread as you. So please, try not to accuse me personally of "always
hav[ing] to find something to whine about."
EDIT: And while I get that 2.0 will have a complete redesign of the UI, we still have to play with 1.xx until then. I hate to fall back on the "we're paying now," so I'll just say that I don't think it would've been such a horrendous idea to make us use an actual item (the horn) to summon--as the above quote says--"a free limited vanity mount."
