    Lets just say there are only 1000 people per sever at a time. Lets say half of them want to do a Caravan run. 500 into the 24 slots is 21 (I rounded up) people per slot.

    Now the purpose of a MMO is being able to log on and play Do the things I want to do. The purpose of a MMO is not when new content comes out I have to wait a week, month, or three months to be able to exprince it. I do not believe the purpose of a (good) MMO is for me to change my life to experince the features I am paying for. I am realtively active and am paying to play the parts of the game I like (in theory). In reality I am paying to wait for people to grow bored with the content I want to play so I can play it last.

    tldr;
    This is not social content I am in a pick up group with people who may not even play. It is play something else until the server gets bored of it content. That is why I endorse an instance for this. So I can play with people I like (or strangers nearby as it takes more than two people to complete anyway).

    It seems players need to realize there are other ways to make seal, every1 dont have to do escorts. Also players need not wait till the last min to decide "OH DAMN I HAVE NO SEAL". I myself am alsways capped or close to cap on seals. I dont wait to the last min and than realize im gonna need seals. Now instead of doing escorts you can do leves, run tot rak, and do grand company supplies for seals. The issue at hand is everyone WANTS THERE SEALS NOW!!! This attitude needs to go away it dosent help anyone it will only bring more issues. Now for those of you that suggest make it instanced guess what now you will have a cool down timer so instances would be open for other groups. So in the end you gain being able to do escorts in an instance but you lose being able to start a new one right after finishing your last.

    So your logic is instances are bad so I should run tot rak an instance?

    We should have pick up play so I should do solo activies (such as crafting) or an instance which is not as friendly as just inviting people who come along?

    I should level a craft high enough to make items for seals?

    The main thing I am hearing is this: Instead of doing what I want to do in my free time I should instead do something else until everyone else is done with it. After all Squre-Enix releases content not to play once it is released and new, but for people to play a few months later.

    I did not know that wanting to do the new quest and rank up was playing wrong.
