On point A: I was booted from a Garuda party because I didn't have atleast 3 melds on my gear. If thats what is expected, and where this game is headed, I will be going elsewhere. I like a challenge, I don't like being kicked from a party before even leaving ulduh because I wasn't wearing triple+ meld. They said the game was balanced to non-melded equipment. So essentially by that group requiring this they wanted things easier not harder.

C: You understand economics huh.. HA! the problem came when it showed price history. I understand why they did this because it was hard to gauge what anything was worth, but it should be blind bids like a normal auction house thats how other games found an items average price. Until then it will always be a game of undercutting or cornering a market.

D: power leveling is an interest to people because currently they are releasing the best content for endgame, and people want to play the new fun content faster. It is not their fault. Low, mid, high, hardcore content should be made regularly and maybe there wouldn't be a reason to blow past it all to level 50. That is why I only have 2 level 50s. I am hoping 2.0 brings this and I get to experience the fun stuff for low levels. I will feel bad for everyone who is maxed out everything then
