    Stop PL Petition .

    PLing is just stupidly common. I'm seeing people shout for partys my lvl but as I read they want a level 50 for PL rotation. I currently do not have a level 50 so I'm stuck soloing. The few parties I've found have either ended in people leaving cause there wasn't a PL or turning into a PL party. The current system is broken and prevents new players from getting to a high level without a PL. I do not want to be PL'd and I will not ask for a PL.

    If you agree that the PL system should be removed or at least changed then post here. If you would like to debate or add anything then post here. If you would like to be a troll then click the red X in the top right of your screen.

    EDIT: If you have nothing constructive to add do not post please.

    It was already changed to be quite a bit slower. No matter what you do or how you change it, people WILL powerlevel. The only ways one could truly stop it would put obnoxious restrictions on the game and punish everyone else at the same time. No thanks.

    If people want to powerlevel, that's their business.

    I don't see how the system outright prevents new players from getting to a high level without PL. It sounds more like people are preventing that, not the system. In which case, you'll have to find a group of like-minded individuals to play with.

    I haven't seen much of this on Besaid. It's there, but not common. Most parties seem to be actual parties. Not leech rotations.

    Too many people are getting PL'd so there are next to no partys below the PL line. That prevents lower levels from leveling up without a PL. Leves are kinda slow to level on due to the hike to the camp not to mention they're limited in supply.

    I would hardly say they're limited in supply. I've spent hours straight doing leves and made a very small dent in what I had to begin with. It's better than that 8 every 36 hours we had previously.

    Like I said, find a group of like-minded individuals and play with them. Surely there's some group on Rabanastre that doesn't condone powerleveling.

    The problem with no one having classes to level would come up eventually anyway though, powerlevel or not. Powerleveling at least helps people with low ranks catch up if there's no means of actually leveling together.

    I have no opinion towards PLing. If you do it, you do it. The choice is yours. I'm stuck soloing, oh well.

    I agree it's a big deal but I would rather find a group of people who know how to party and party hard ;D

    It's better than someone anti-social who'd rather pay some lv.50er (someone they don't even know) and ruin the game for everyone. (Well I guess there it is! My opinion on PLing) =P

    Like i said 50 times should be added 5-6years when the game no longer getting new players not now when people are joining there no point to reach max level in a new game. A game that 5+year old where there lot's of max level players i understand the need for such a system to help new players get 5+year worth of stuff to do. In ffxiv right now there not even 1year worth of stuff to do so what the point.

    But it wasn't added intentionally. It was added because they had to do something about the obnoxiously stupid claiming system we had before (which people could still PL under). It was an unintended side-effect of an actual fix that we needed.

    Regular grind parties are much more common on Lindblum, that's for sure. I barely ever see a PL shout. With the level of xp gain we get with chains and - at higher levels - strongholds, there's no reason to not do xp parties.

    PL is not a an issue and is working as intended. To each his own.

    Another thing I noticed is most of the people complaining on these forums about PL are low in level. Before jumping on the PL rage bandwagon, did you ever consider the lack of regular parties to be due to there not being many people leveling classes that low anymore?

    I can get a party without that much problem but its always a PL party. I'm trying to say almost all lower level partys are PL partys and its dumb. Too many people are leveling lower level classes with PL. If you already have everything at 50 this might not bug you but its going to keep people away from the game.
