Rank 30..... 1000 min + queue time..screenshot.. I think it's time to quit this game.

Let's just face it. The FFXIV community is too pansy assed to allow for decent pvp in the game. Pvp requires an aggressive mindset amongst its players to be successful, especially in the arena format SE chose to start with. Unfortunately most of the people that enjoy FF enjoy the cute, snuggly, fluffy minions and the completely inane storyline and would rather have naked lallafel dance-offs then actually get in an arena and pound face with other players.

There's plenty of people who would do PvP, if it was remotely interesting. A single 4v4 arena with a combat system that doesn't really lend itself to PvP doesn't cut it for most people.

Having all the abilities unlocked at the start might tempt me to give it a go to get a feel for them before Frontlines, but as it stands queuing for 2 hours to get stomped by rank 30-40s inside a minute? I'd rather go play a game that's more focused on PvP if that's what I want to do.
