CNJ is actually taking me a while to get to 50, I can not play all the time. I'd certainly like to be able to enjoy end game things though, so why should leveling be any slower? If you play alot, then you get their quick, no problem with that.

You ever play an offline game? Invest enough time in one and usually you can be level 50 in a week. Shouldn't be much different in an online game. A game is a game, not a lifestyle commitment.

50 is not the end. Exping gets longer and longer, imagine how long it will take you to actually achieve something as 75, probably another 2 weeks just for those 25 levels. Not to mention all the quests involved.
Also not to mention that each job you have, you need its supporting classes' abilities, that's what another 2 weeks (one for each sub-class) to maximize your potential in one job.

I'm not going to sit here and level forever to actually get to real content. Solo stuff along the way is nice, but thats not why I'm playing an MMORPG is it now?
