i'm wondering how many people remember that we did have reasons to go to the other cities? it's funny to watch alot of people complain that their cities are dead after supporting the only reason i ever went to grid or limsa being removed.

do you remember recipes that needed guild or master support from the guilds?
do you remember having to go to the guild to purchase abilities?

these things forced people to go to other cities besides uldah, but everyone supported them being removed. don't act suprised now that you get what you asked for and it had unintended consequences.

i know i remember going to uldah and spending days there because guild support allowed me to complete higher level synths while grinding, but now that's been removed the whole reason to go there is gone.

outside of going to limsa or grid for farming i don't waste my time going there and a global shout isn't doing anything to change that.
