I completely agree that it would be nice is SE made it so that the S and A ranks were always visible in a wider radius. The current proximity requirements are too short.

But I completely disagree with the notion that there is something wrong with World Visit/Cross-World Hunt Trains. Hunts are significantly quicker, incredibly well organized and the "Hunt Heroes" that we have that scout and conduct trains are fantastic. Why should a train take longer when people can go to multiple hunt trains a day and farm all the amazing rewards? I want SE to connect all the DCs on NA rather than close things off again.

Yes, the situation isn't perfect. Move closer to the hunt and get over it. Git Gud. It's incredibly selfish to be like "oh, I have to try a little bit harder to see the hunt, so let's just close it off so I'm personally accommodated".

SE if you see this, please don't close down this awesome expansion of community content for a vocal minority. Take a look at the data, the number of hunt participants and maybe the chat. Hunts are better than ever and the people that actually participate regularly appreciate it.

P.S. Aether is amazing. I am so grateful for our hunt community.
