Required Class/Rank failed - Can we have Optimal Rank and Favoured Class back?

[Oscillate_Wildly]

What do you mean about undyed gear? Yoshi stated he wanted to have a whole palate of colored-dyes that would not at all affect stats, but at the moment that's hard to implement due to textures (please don't ask me what that means, I'm a Chemistry nerd, not a computer graphics nerd).

Hey, I get you. Though I don't think the same way, I get it. I just think there are currently more important things to address, and the RP community is a minority, so sadly it will be catered to the least.

Oh no I get that, I read that letter about the system and that's not what I mean. I meant that the undyed versions all have the optimal/favoured stats making it equipable to almost everyone no matter what. And I never said I was part of the RP community, I am but I never said I was, however I'm not hardcore about it at all. RPwise there are a few out there who are vehemently against this but like you said I'm already hanging onto a few things for that purpose. :U RP aside I do enjoy looking how I want to look convenient to my class or not. I always equip myself to the best of my ability in a party and srs situations, but sometimes I like a little flexibility.

Like with my tiara one rank ahead of me. I'd like the ability to equip it now with lowered stats and lowered rate of spirit binding just so I may get through the last 16k to participate in the experiment with my friends that we're doing without having to go Con so I may level up Lnc at the same time. It has nothing to do with RP. It's convenient to be able to equip something even 2 levels above you even with a penalty especially now that things are laid out so clearly.

Just saying, a little flexibility and creative programming/balancing would have been appreciated rather than old fashioned hard-restrictions.
But I respect your opinion. I really do.

Your tone was indicative of this, which is why I haven't been all harsh and obnoxious as most people tend to get out of me. People saying that the current system failed... make me laugh. But you have honest opinions and peaceful ways of expressing them. Kudos. ^^

And, hey, we're on the same server!

Ah yeah, I tend to agree but I'm mostly peaceful, I can't justify everything I think but I try to be understanding in most circumstances. I have a lot of friends who don't RP and I'm mainly just very social in game. D: I like my fair share of content as just a regular player so I see the advantages of a system with requirements, although I also see the promise of a more flexible albeit punishing system as well.

Ah well I try to be as civil as possible, as much as possible And so we are! I've probably seen you around then. We may have even partied once or twice.
