Question to players

[Darrcyphfeid]

I already don't run Expert anymore or use PF to farm EX primals... I'm already out enough of the system as is...

I probably wouldn't have put it the way Kazrah did myself, but I don't entirely disagree with them either. Regardless, just offering a view as to specifically why the context of the OP could be immediately off-putting to someone.

Is this a better idea? The majority says no on this day and I can accept that when it's got foundation and thought behind it. But please don't jump to the conclusion that I'm trying to wish doom upon 'ye casuals' because that certainly isn't the case.

I would hazard a guess that Kazrah was replying more to the OP than your additional restrictions, though I'm not them and can't say with any certainty.

In either case, my opinion is simply what's contained within those first two posts - nothing more, nothing less. I view this as an exercise in game theory more than a forum for trying to change opinions, and again I would not have phrased it as Kazrah did.

As for the system we have being perfect? Not really. But it's as fair of one as you're probably going to get, because it doesn't have pitfalls like the aforementioned tank disparity and won't result in further inflated queue times by keeping players contained to their rank. Once you've allowed bronze and silver to play together, or silver and gold, you've effectively slid back to this current system as well.
