I agree 100% with this assessment. The current lockout systems is soooooo detrimental to a positive community attitude. I feel like SE probably is aware of what it is doing, but has made a decision based on years of whining and crying about "boohoo RNG is evil" and has just given people what they asked for even if it contributes to a fractured, exclusive community. Be careful what you wish for, if you will. RNG is a necessary component in MMOs, whether you like it or not.
