Sorry for not looking the game with pink glasses like you do.
I want the game to succeed , but saying " everything is alright " is not the way to go.

Oh really? Please, would you quote ONE post of mine where I say "everything is alright" or anything equivalent to that?
Having a constructive outlook on the game (I'm quite sure I posted quite a lot more suggestions on how to change the game than any of the people that continue posting bashing threads) doesn't mean thinking everything is alright.
"the sky isn't falling (yet)" != "everything is alright"

Everyone i know if they havent quit the game they only log for leves , craft and log off for 1 day or two. I could be playing right now on my day off but instead im playing on ps3 and posting on forums.
You havent reached the end of the game life yet , i have .All that is left for me is to repeat same shit every day, so im sorry if i dont think you need to call out every single thing people complain about.
Most people who play do their leves and log out.most people who played at start dont even play anymore. The new people who you claim are by hundreds only play couse is free and the game is definetly fun until you reach the point were everythin is more of the same.
You really think FFXIV is populated ? that we arent loosing people?i wish i could be as naive.

You really think that after being here from the first days of alpha I didn't reach the point where everything is more of the same? Maybe, instead of grinding your eyes out to reach an endgame that quite evidently isn't there yet, you could have taken your time, played other games in between, went out... you know, a more healthy approach to the game.

You'd probably be less burned out by now.

You base your "statistics" in what you see, and I base mine in what I see. Istory has never been an high population server, I reckon. It's more than possible than people in lower populated servers are logging in less, while people in higher population ones are logging in more.
What's "naive" is thinking that you can create statistics from the outlook on a low-pop server alone.
If the population is dropping, SE knows better than you. And they're obviously doing what they can to put a patch on it.
If it's raising or stationary, I seriously doubt that they'll be content with that, considering that they have a lot of ground to recover.
