Unless you heard BLU was a meme and didn't even bother to try, so I guess there's that too. Because then the argument should be "I don't like the content" instead of "There's no content".

    -Edit: A Lodestone search takes five seconds. Ask away if you want lol.
    I don’t like BLU, Ty kindly for asking. It’s clear you meant offense due to the personal nature of it.

    Now I mean to reply on your edit. Why is it that you think personally researching others online is the best answer to argue on the merits of this expansion? Because the way I see it, when people have sound, logical, and compelling arguments to defend something they don’t need to go dig personal information on others to prove it.

    It is in fact the opposite. When there is no good argument to be made people most often look for a way to discredit others instead of confronting the argument head on.

    I try to never be aggro against people in the forums, and I have no idea why you'd take it that way. Most I ever did was mock aveyond for making a fuzz about a wood joke during an event, and he didn't care too much anyway. I'm not the type that antagonizes people. Meant no offense, and I'm sorry if came across that way.

    I'm not personally researching you, Aries. I wondered if you had done BLU and I just checked your profile. The reason BLU is relevant here is because there is plenty of content to do beyond just achievements. On the other hand, if you're gonna argue that you don't like the available actual content (see BLU here) then I wouldn't have even bothered, because I can't control how you enjoy or dislike whatever piece of content there is, and you're entitled to criticize whatever piece of content based on your personal tastes. Many people have moved on to the more sensible argument of the content is bad for this and that reason rather than just saying there's no content. There's pages of threads discussing content quality, but the fact of the matter is that said content is there. I saw you talking about achievements in the context of them being the only thing left to do, which is just rather silly and it made me wonder how much stuff you've actually done. BLU is just the easy target, because people truly underestimate both the job and The Masked Carnival, so that's why I went looking for that specifically. Again, if you wanna ask me something based on my Lodestone profile, go right ahead. I don't understand why you're taking this so personally, so again: all I can do is apologize if you took offense.
