Im allowed to wear the gear on all my R50 classes, so ive earnt the right, and yet as soon as I equip a fry-pan I can't wear my gear anymore? You telling me everytime I cook dinner I have to strip naked? Everytime I pick up a knife, I have to strip naked?

You're crazy.
You're a lazy tool. FFXI has had this system for YEARS. Works fine and no complaints. You still have your dated gear with "Optimal". Wear that and stop the QQ.
