After nearly a decade, im giving this game another chance.

Even in classic, most people just follow the meta. The differences there however, are smaller since number bloat is as present. Further it still has specs that are just flat out kicked from groups, even casual groups, that are so bad.

BTW, Retail still has 4x the population and 2x the daily logins as classic does so I wouldn't say it is doing "better".

so you are saying we should promote a toxic enviornment of kicking people because they disagree? correct me if im wrong, but FF14 GMs even frown upon people that parse and use third party addons, i sincerely doubt this is an issue at all, based on that standpoint alone.
