I've always wondered if they were hoping that cross world free hunters would break trains.
imo communities are completely fine to create trains. They're easy tomes, I don't fault players for working together for shortcuts. The issue is more that the community then tries to enforce rules that don't exist. No one needs to wait on stragglers. No one needs to call out what they found. Its nice to do those things...but its not necessary- if an S rank is killed by 3 fc mates and a chocobo then there were enough people there. Nothing needs to be changed when hunts work as SE intended them to work.

Balmung has never really been a train server, even now its often folks from other servers that lead them here. I'm kinda grateful I started back when I did cause the regulars beat the entitlement out of us haha. If you wanted guaranteed full credit you got out into the world and spawned/scouted for yourself.
