Leaving aside how long it took them too actually add anything like a rank down system in FFXI...

Speaking from my own desire here. I have played FFXI. I have also played many other MMOs, and am what is called an altoholic, it started in FFXI, and it drove me to WOW because of how SE handles it. Too be charged for wanting to play a different character or race; to me, it's ridiculous and a slap in the face for wanting to do it. I don't RP. It doesn't factor into my desire too play multiple characters. Any MMO you go to play, you'll find plenty of people like that.

That aside, I think this is getting to far off the topic of how billing itself is handled. The main reason it was brought up was because of how SE decides too split its billing.

Moving back to the mess that is billing right now, I'd remembered how they split up the billing charges needlessly.

They have the 'basic' service, which from what I can tell, earns me the right to let them charge me for the sake of charging me. I have to pay a smaller fee to have any character at all on the server.

These services fees should be combined into a single fee like any other MMO out there. FFXIV can be a unique flower in the MMO market, but here it should be standard like the rest.

it's clear that you just want to play more then one Char then you should play wow or one of it's clone. FFXIV and FFXI is build around one Char level it up there no need to play other race if you can't pay 1 or the 3$ for it then play something else there not much you can do about that issue really.

The reason they using this billing because many players dislike the POL payment and want other way to pay for the game and now it seem we want just to pay them with CC then buying crysta and what not.
