Too many gameplay restrictions

Can't keep other items for sale while changing prices: this is one of the worst issue with retainers, I happen to sell 20 items at once, and to change the price of one, i have to REMOVE 20 items from the market.
While doing this, people will just buy the next item they see and i'll lose gils for that.
Happened to me more than once, I remember i was selling an allagan replica, i called my retainer to change the price on some other stuff and in the same minute they buy a replica, all because of this crappy system.

Not 100% right. You don't remove the items from the market while changing the prices, but while calling the retainer.

True, but it's even worse then, because i need to remove 20 items from the market for everything that i need to do on the retainer (ventures, storing items, changing prices, anything else)

Prior to 3.0 release they stated that they was either bringing in flying or swimming, in the end they went with flying. I think I remember them stating 4.0 we will see swimming.

True, i read that, still i don't understand why we need a total different expansion for a feature that other MMOs have since start without the need of advertising it.
I wonder, will the next expansion STILL have flying? or they will remove it because they say "It's not needed now, you got swimming" ?
Looking at the game I wouldn't be surprised if they did that.

Don't forget the old favourite... still no CD reset on raid wipe.

Thanks for bringing this up, I had forgot, it's a shame we have to wait for CD resets on wipe in raids, I can't see how making it happen would create "balance" problems (I think that's what they said a while ago).
