Why does Square Enix do this?

I think the better question is, why are there 3 difficulties of Diadem? Rank 1 mobs will kill solo players on all 3 difficulties, and gatherers will be one shot by any mob regardless of which they join. The 3 modes aren't amazingly different, and the difference in drop rates isn't spectacular.

It would have been cool if diadem was an alternate leveling method, with easy designed for level 50-54, normal for 55-59, and hard exclusively for level 60. The difficulties are pretty pointless as it is now.

You could have used the search function to find a similar thread instead of making another one.

The forum moderator has spoken! Watch out!

Seriously who cares if people make another thread? It ain't hurting you.

Exactly. It's actually somewhat of a shock that people are saying you won't get in trouble for bumping old threads. Every forum I have participated in it was against the rules to bump old threads even if your reply was relevant.

Because then you get multiple threads of the same subject that clutters the page and pushes out other topics of discussion.

Not really a problem with these forums. These are some of the slowest MMO forums I have seen. Just compare this to the general discussion forum on World of Warcraft which can go up to 50 pages a day.

Positive thread will drowned quickly by people's "need moar attention to answer my thread" type or some kind of bait thread. If you visit JP section, the thread looks more tidy than here. Yes it doesn't hurt people but it's annoying to see thread that already answered long ago asked again.

It's because we don't have any new major patch content to talk about. Or complain about. It's always the same cycle:

People complain there's nothing to do
New content comes out/is announced
People speculate/complain about said content
People play said content then complain about it for weeks
People return to being bored until next patch.

I Gave this a lot of thought they should do this to fix this problem.

Give everyone a portable Tent Camp

People can walk around then if they need to setup camp they use it which puts out a chocobo stable to feed their chocobo, dye it and when they are done fold it up back into your pocket then walk around.

Make it like the greens like summoning chocobo this way it gives market value you buy items to summon your camp.

And then get forum suspended for bumping an old thread? Nah thats why they tell us to make new threads.

What forums have you been going to where it's a suspendable act to bump an old thread? The only people who complain about it are other members who get annoyed when an OP bumps their own thread to try and get more attention on a topic that didn't get many replies, and even then it's usually only if they bump it multiple times. At worst the thread will get locked, unless you do something else to violate the forum rules when you bump it.....

EDIT: I'm seriously wanting to know some examples of forums where it's a suspendable act, because I want to avoid them with a passion. It's by far the stupidest thing I've ever heard to ban someone for wanting to continue an existing conversation when they have more to add, rather than restart it entirely from scratch and have the same things repeated over and over.....
