Mind you, regarding the solo/group. Sometimes I want to solo (sometimes others do), sometimes I can party. Maybe after Merge (moving to dif server) it wont be so bad.

I did AF quest on Istory and right away I got a group of 8 for MNK, we all stuck together, and shared anima in a rotation, it kind of just happened, I used about 12 anima in total. Very nice. On my Besaid however, everyone kept leaving the group after 1 thing, everyone was insanely stubborn about anima, we'd be ready to go and it would go silent for about 10 minutes until someone popped a teleport to Mor Dhona or Dragon Head, both far away places. People got really strict with it. I got a bit sick of it and just started porting and this one dude gave me 400k to say thanks. (woo munies).

If Anima was so easy and not an issue and people didnt mind running, these people who dont mind standing silence waiting for someone else to pop the teleport seem to think otherwise, and especially the guy giving me money out of the blue.

Also I would happy pay to regen Anima and I can probably guarantee it would be one of the best gil sinks in game.

1m = 100 Anima.
I agree with everything you say ^.^.
And you correctly touch on some of the underlying issues:
-- Not yet enough people to make partying a viable and consistent option -- hopefully changes soon.
-- People leaving parties quickly -- not nice ; ; not sure what we can do there but try be in party with majority of friends.
-- People standing around staring till someone uses their anima... been there.. done that... So far, the Japanese people I have played with have the standard /random for teleport, maybe it take off (of course, lots of people may say they simply do not have anima...)
