It is not absurd. Give the casuals gear, but it certainly shouldn't be as good as the hardcore end game gear.
It's absurd. Look at FFXI. parties are DISCRIMINATING based on equipment. Does a casual have a shot at participating in the game's content because the community is going, "LUL, You don't have this particular piece of equipment. GTFO!"

Just stop talking. If you can't think more widely about what kind of implications such things have on how the community ends up behaving towards others, then your opinion isn't really that valuable.

You know why I say that? I'm a moderationist. I believe in finding a "sweet spot" that suits EVERYBODY. Not just one demographic or one ideology. That means compromising. That means understanding what other people's positions are. When other people are unwilling, unbending, and unable to see what others' positions are, they earn my ire, my disgust, and ultimately, if they persist, my hatred.

Not a whole lot different from the idiocy of Congress~
