World condensing based on achievement points and character ilvl

[HaelseMikiro]

So if I have a level 50 (everything) character with 5k achievement points, and I created a new toon to play with, you think it shouldn't be on the same world as my main?
This seems like a really terrible idea as far as segregating the community. With Data Centers, if you're having problems with the DF taking long, then even 5+ servers worth of people don't have the combined interest to do something what you want to(or are asleep).

But I'll be reasonable and try to find some benefits to this idea:
1) Gil spammers will NEVER be able to contact me (related: MB prices will likely go up)
2) All the people stuck on Twintania will have an entire server of people also in the same boat (related: I can't sell T5 anymore)
3) I'll be on a server with more people (any, actually) interested in Savage Coil

I don't think SE will consider this because it would seem counter-productive to the goal of the game content being accessible to all players.
And years from now, new subscribers will be in the ghostiest of ghost towns wondering where the other players are and having no one to show them the ropes or offer guidance. (related: less subscribers)

To the last comment, yes if you were to create a new account character it would start in the beginner's world, why would you start in a far off high level world let alone purposely? Duty finder is slow in off times but not nearly as slow as party finder if it isn't prime time of the data center. 1, 2 is unimportant, and 3 I agree with from your list. Worlds would not be ghost towns because of new players joining and if they can't progress without super high level help the lower level world is where players of their kind are and there world be more of the same in all worlds.

Dear OP,
Your system would not only discourage mentoring new players but make it impossible to do so. It is therefore an awful idea.
Sincerely,

Oh look...Op's main classes are tanks. How ironic.

Either you are a successful troll, or you are a rather perfect example of what is known as a princess tank.

In the case of the former, it's childish.
In the case of the latter, it's still childish.

I hope you don't feel good about either of these cases.

People get Achievements and change ilvl all the time. It seems like it would create more problems to segregate that way. Even if you did tiers, what about alt jobs on the same character? Let's say your main is WAR and you have it at 50, but then you decide to level gladiator for Awareness (pretend you only leveled it to 22 for provoke). So you would have to change servers leveling GLD, and then change servers when you go back to WAR.

tl : dr Your idea is full of problems.

Solving one problem by creating dozens more.

You must be in management.

Next thing we'll see from this guy is a petition to make all Lalafalls sit in the back seat when riding the Chocobo porter..

New players are being harassed constantly in this game. I'd love to see a solution that involves SE kicking those who verbally abuse others in the butt.

Send the OP & all elitists to the rmt server.
