Honestly can you come up with a constructive feature that can fix the issue instead of complaining about it. Grinding will always be in any mmo's or any game for that matter, it's how people perceives it that determines that grind and is the key to any game! It's like a drug once people are hooked it's hard to get them off it. Making a game to easy where there is no real challenge, easy leveling, no real sense of achievement, for them to then turn it to a more of a you have to earn it system it is a hard pill for many people who are addicted to easy mode to swallow. But that my opinion but I think for mmo's there should be option's for all depending on your playing style to have in any mmo not just one method of my way or the highway type of approach!
