    I live in my own little world? That applies to you and not me, lol. My advice applies to those who are still complaining but keep playing. Do us a favor and don't. Maybe this doesn't apply directly to you or maybe it does. If you get offended by that statement than obviously it does apply to you.
    In spite of the fact that I completely disagree with you in this thread, my reasons for hanging about are exactly the same as yours. However, I notice you use the word 'sucks' not once, not twice, but a total of 3 times in your first paragraph as you described how you felt about the game. Yet, amazingly, you feel you have some place in advising me to "just quit the game since you don't like it!" - 100% Hypocritical.

    You wanna know who's left playing this game after the exodus? Final Fantasy fans and dregs, those of whom do sometimes merge identities in your case. What I'm most offended by is your unfathomable expectation that I'd be offended by your nonsensical claims.

    Again, I'm not your enemy here. Learn who your allies are.

    I for one know PLing was a whole lot different in FFXI, though it was still boring to PL or get PL'd, period.

    Never did I consider you an enemy in any regard, honestly. I'm perfectly fine to have a civil disagreement - even if it does get heated. I think some of the confusion on my part comes from what I see as an indefinite stance, toward the whole issue of PL as it exists in FFXIV, from you.

    Back on topic, I disagree!

    Okay, well your topics just seem... oh whatever. Forgive me.

    My problem with Power Leveling firstly comes from the inverse leveling curve that is experienced between 35-50, and secondly the fact that anyone can indeed solo EXP at any time. (If you were on Besaid and in my linkshell, or knew some of my friends, you would know I absolutely will refuse to PL or accept it.)

    I didn't care about it that much in FFXI, because as you said, it at least required some sense of effort on the party members, and it still wasn't all that worthwhile.

    For the record, I don't even like Level Sync and I didn't like it in FFXI either because when you were using Lv.Sync beyond certain levels, you were missing out on a lot of stuff you otherwise wouldn't have. But at least Level Sync gives us veterans the ability to be able to help newbies without ever having to give them a free hand (I mean hell, I would like to be able to sync my marauder down to my friend's newbies levels so we can duo properly).

    Lol, you read what you want to read don't you? I used the word sucks but I did not say that was my opinion of the game. I said people in general also I haven't directly pointed my finger at the you and told you to quit though you keep taking it that way. Though you are constantly whining and moaning I matter of factually said if all people are going to do is b!+ch and moan about the game they should follow my advice so the people like me (learn to read between the lines a little bit) who want to see the game succeed do not have to continue to read posts like this about people just crying over nothing. I did however say if you are taking offense to what I am saying it does apply to you, I pointed my finger at the people behind you but you assumed I was pointing at you. Tsk tsk tsk.

    I agree to a soft cap but not a hard cap. Should never be like FFXI was an get only like 200 EXP a kill in which some cases you would get more but that was ridiculous. Certain level ranges should have different soft caps in place when level synced depending on how much exp it takes to level. 50+ should stay where it is, they made it clear many times over by saying they didn't want this MMO to be like other MMOs where all you do is grind to max level the whole time. I want it to take a short time to get max level and enjoy the end game content, though the game is far from finished still. It is starting to get there with the new dungeons and other content but it still has a ways to go.
