    Why are we locking beloved raid mounts behind pvp? Where's the rage threads over that?
    Twintania: I'm ok with recruit-a-friend campaigns, as an incentive for bringing more people into the game. You don't need to buy them their copy of the game.

    Sleipnir: Where did I say I agreed with it? Just because I didn't single it out doesn't mean I'm ok with it. It's among the sack of cut content I don't agree with being part of the store. Jus like the chocobo carriage, that's one of the very first things you see in the game (depending on your starting city).

    The pvp mounts: I don't see a problem. Yes, ideally you'd want a mount that's a raid enemy to be obtainable through raiding, but I'm ok with it being a reward in other content as long as you obtain it by playing the game. And pvp is an aspect of the game they have a lot of trouble getting the community to play, so I'm all up for them using incentives like these to keep it alive.

    The other thing you're not considering is that most of those enemies (save for the dreadnought at least) didn't have such a long wait as Cruise Chaser did to get turned into a mount, so expectations weren't as high (not to mention some of those enemies arguably weren't as impactful in the game as Cruise Chaser was).
