What is the point of mount drops...

So you say, but better to put it out in such a way that gets some responses instead of pushed down by all of the "LOOK AT MY PRETTY CHARACTER" threads. I would say 7 pages is successful.

I only see 2 pages. And also, the pretty character threads are popular because they are things most people agree on and aren't made in trollish manners.

And with that, you lose integrity and your approach is disingenuous. How do we know when we raise a valid point you can't argue against that you're not going to move the goal post? Where else might you be disingenuous? Or are you in fact just a troll? I'm strongly now suspecting the latter.

If your topic is not strong enough to grip people, then that reflects how much people care about the topic. You going in trying to be clickbaity doesn't add value it potentially adds views if they come in expecting the title to be reflective of the topic and loses you the integrity of any points you raise and thus is a waste of people's time when they're addressing what they believed to be the point of the thread, which they understandably deduced from the thread title and a post that doesn't correct that meaning now that they are here.

To be honest: I recall you creating threads about wanting more open world content at least once, maybe twice (and I admit I'm to lazy to look it up) - those were direct in stating what you wanted, that you went through all the open world content there is and so on...

...and what you got is what you got here: Lots of people telling you that they still have a lot of open world content to engage in, making suggestions for you what to try out only to be met with "done that, dont wanna do this, its not enough", then followed by explantions like "They can only release so much content, FFXIV has lots of different kinds of content and has never had a heavy focus on the open world (maybe look for a game that does)".
With that in mind this thread doesnt look so much like (just) a troll-thread but more like "I couldnt get people to agree with me when I said directly what I wanted, maybe if I disguise it...!" - your approach here really isnt all that convincing (mounts are there as a convenince so you spent less time in the open world, instead of having to walk everywhere - if you want to increase your open world time: Best way to do that is to delete mounts from your hotbar), so at least to me this appeared as only a thinly veiled try to repeat something that people already told you they dont really agree on.
