"Apologise for any inconvenience"???

I spend 30 days resolutely logging in to do my Beastman Tribe quests and on the final day before Rank 4, I'm prepared to power through them, do so in superfast time as soon as the timer ticks over (holding a quest item in my inventory and luckily getting that as one of my three), hopefully getting a WORLD FIRST on "Licensed to Gill" over at xivpads for my troubles to finally cement my reputation as the most HARDCORE of CASUALS, for what???

The Lodestone broke and didn't correctly reflect the time I (and other hardcore casual competitors!) received the achievement, by about 18 hours and in order of character update, no less.

I'm a laughing stock. How am I going to convince anyone to carry me through T1-4 of Bahamut's Coil now? I would seriously consider unsubscribing had I not just bought another six months at a ridiculously low Legacy subscription level.

I would have lost with good grace had another player legitimately beaten me in this race of champions, but now I'm going to have to wait, what; another three months? for the next Beastman Tribe to be added.

Square-Enix, please stop worrying about these sad Atma complainers and sort out the things that really matter in this game.
