    Also I'm not really sure what you mean by bringing up me as a Pugilist. I mean I guess I'm no Archer but I make it work. Almost never die in there despite being close range.
    PUG = Pick Up Group

    This is what happens when you don't even know the correct abbreviation for your armory class.

    Numerous people both on these forums, other forums and in game refer to Pugilist as Pug and seeing as my only 50 is Pugilist well... If that's the point he was referring to actually I group with my LS, we've always got enough people on to run it. We're getting better as we go but clearly we've got some fine tuning to do on the time, getting closer each run though.

    I'm not going to argue what the official abbreviation is, most people just say Pug. Say/type/think, it's just what happens.

    There is no argument.

    Pugilist = PGL, don't like it? Tell SE to change it. I imagine the reason Pugilist was not abbreviated as PUG in the first place is because of the confusion that you displayed previously since PUG is a common abbreviation for pick up group.

    It's the same thing that was prevalent in FFXI for the first year or two. People stopped referring to Paladins as "PAL" and Black Mages as "BLK" eventually. I assume the same will happen in this game with PGL, GLA and whatever else.

    You're right there is no argument. PGL is the official abbreviation. I personally don't give half a damn what the official abbreviation is though because people commonly refer to Pugilist as Pug, causing this obvious confusion. Again, not even talking about the official abbreviation, I'm talking about what people commonly refer to Pugilist as. Doesn't matter if it's wrong or right, that's what people do. And again as my only 50 is Pugilist it can cause confusion.
