Skill-up's

This is like saying New job comes out oh shit its lvl 1 have to interrupt ls event to lvl it. Guess they shouldn't add new jobs to the game either because it will just get in everyone's way

Incorrect. Leveling weapon skills, combat skills, and magic skills isn't the same as a new class coming out;
- Leveling said class is entirely optional.

Skill levels coming out with everyone starting at 0 is different;
- A 50 DRG with a lance skill of 0 is forced to grind his lance all the way to cap before his accuracy, attack, and other damage calculations go back to normal.
Thusly, in order to do ANYTHING, that DRG as well as the rest of the players in the game have to stop and spend x amount of days/weeks/months putting their skills 'back' to the normal level of what they're used to.
You want hit a mob? You want to heal properly? Want to block properly? You NEED skill levels.

You DON'T need to level an entirely new class. That's different.
