I logged back onto the game and uninstalled the same night

Lord of Verminion?

...Seriously, Verminion?

Your post is basically "your opinion is wrong" but opinions are exactly that and if I enjoyed WoW's system more back in the past then I personally enjoyed it more. Verminion is really scraping out the barrel though (which sort of proves my point) and I don't see why you bother, if there are things in FF14 that could be done better why stifle that feedback?

The achievement system in ff14 has rewards, but there's much less milestone achievements, no dungeon or raid meta achievements where you can go back and clear them in interesting ways, no achievements where you have fun. Just "clear X" participation achievements or ridiculously insane repetitive grinds. No creativity. They're also far less visible.
The achievement system might be "fine", but that doesn't mean it can't be greatly improved.

The Inn toybox is also really scraping the barrel. I think most of us forget it exists. Even if Blizzard ended up nerfing half their toys, it was a great idea before they ruined it and they literally had hundreds of them. It was fun.

As for WoW removing things for ages, I certainly noticed it and like I said the examples I gave were simply the last straw and final nail in the coffin. I absolutely hated their FOMO tactics to try and force players to stay subbed. It had the opposite effect and drove me away instead.
Events in FF14 irk me because not all the rewards come back (and they should) but it's a minor thing compared to the nonsense Blizzard pulled.

no achievements where you have fun.

Go back and look again. I cans ee several that fit that category

"My body is a temple"

"Dress like a Pirate Day"

"A Mummer in Motley"

The sightsee achieves are a serious challenge as well as fun, some of the puzzles to get these are a blast ( I am still working on THAT one in Kugane ). Try getting all the ones for ARR. If that isnt fun i dont know what is..not to mention bragging rights on St Crispin's Day.

..theres loads to do.

WoW transmogs are mostly ugly af and can't be dyed
