wow... rested experience just wow...

[Ashthra]

My point was an analogy. I view FFXIV as a game; and I prefer my games to have an equal rule set for everyone. This is why I don't personally support inflating exp rewards for individuals who play less. I agree that playing this game is a luxury. It's a game. What I can't understand is how everyone arguing for fairness in the same breath where they're asking that some individuals are treated differently. Also, it's a game. I'll deal with the rules whatever they are- I don't have a lot vested either way regarding rested exp.

I do however, absolutely disagree that treating some people differently is equivalent to fairness.

It is fair, though -- if you were to stop playing for three days, the way that guy with a 40+ hour a week job may often have to, then you would accrue the exact same amount of rested experience he does. It is, for all intents and purposes, equal.

Frankly, I find all of this hilariously poetic. How many times was the casual player told over the years, "Nothing's stopping you from getting what you want out of [X game], just set aside the time to do it or don't cry about it!" and now, the moment a bone is thrown in their direction, they get to hear from the very same people that were telling them to suck it up, "HEY THAT ISN'T FAIR, WHY CAN'T I GET THAT?!"

Well. Nothing's stopping you from getting what you want out of FFXIV, just set aside the time to gain the rested exp, or don't cry about it.
