Except people aren't mad they named it rogue instead of thief. People want Thief as a Job, not a base class that gets forgotten. People are more mad because Yoshida is more or less saying "there will never be a Thief" for lore reasons that don't actually match the lore.
I understand people want Thief job but for getting angry at "lore reasons" but it just means people have poor reading comprehension. Rogue should be named Thief but due to lore reasons, it is currently named Rogue. So people shouldn't be angry at that, SE fully intended for Rogue to be Thief which probably means they have very little, to no plans to bringing in Thief job.Except people aren't mad they named it rogue instead of thief.

Basically, Rogue *should* be named Thief but lore happened and it's named Rogue. Thus, Thief should be a base class and Ninja the job, throwback to FFI. People angry at the base class relegation of Thief but if SE's view is to have it like FFI in that particular class/job relationship then that's how it's going to be.
It has nothing to do with lore reasons, don't try to insult us with that.I understand people want Thief job but for getting angry at "lore reasons" but it just means people have poor reading comprehension.

It's called disagreement. We don't agree with the reasons they provided.
I'm not going to discuss it further here as it's off-topic really, yet you seem to want to argue against anyone that says they want Thief, even in a thread specifically asking people what new Jobs they want.
I would like Thief to be added. I do not want Ninja, and will not take dumb excuses on why I should be forced to play ninja to enjoy Thief.
People didn't care for gladiator and lancer way back when, they wanted classic jobs. I want thief. I already butchered half of the 2nd cohort and looted their dead bodies. Looting from the living isn't the great moral quandary SE thinks it is.

You could absolutely do a very good RDM that would turn out much better than XI's RDM.
Outside of some interesting content you could solo, RDM in XI was just a buff bot in parties. Few people actually enjoy such a tedious and low skill position and it has absolutely no place whatsoever in FFXIV.
RDM would make an excellent support DPS job that fills the same role as a BRD does. It could be a melee/magic hybrid that mixes melee attacks and spell casts for optimal DPS. One of its core abilities would be Refresh, that would function such that it would be relatively interchangeable with a BRDs using mana song. IE: it couldn't be spammed, and using it would diminish the RDMs DPS in some way. This would be an excellent addition to the game because currently there isn't any other Job that fills the BRD role.
I've been looking forward to Musketeer, though I would love to see Rune Fencer, or a similar Great Sword class.
Housekeeper, level up by tending the garden and cleaning the stables
it's not called steal, it's called get a war's spoil. not the same, they are enemy that did try to kill you, your familly, the tree and even the mog!I would like Thief to be added. I do not want Ninja, and will not take dumb excuses on why I should be forced to play ninja to enjoy Thief.

anyway, just for saying Thief is as much important than ninja, actually you have more FF with ninja than thief. and for information in the first FF the thief was evolving into ninja, like it will be there
Paladin then dragoon.
I really wanted a Dark knight but that will be later.
Rogue is coming I am looking forward to that.
Did the first FF have scholars and dragoons? No? Then why the hell does it deprive me of playing thief?it's not called steal, it's called get a war's spoil. not the same, they are enemy that did try to kill you, your familly, the tree and even the mog!
