Technically off topic, but I think you have some obvious observation bias here. If you look at any census data (i.e. the ones they officially release: http://www.finalfantasyxiv.com/Eorze...N_Census_L.PNG) it will be obvious that there are far more players playing older classes (i.e. pld) than newer classes (i.e. drk). The fact that DRK is over represented in the percentile should tell you that making an argument based on sample size is unsound.
