Are you aware that only one person on the entire server can obtain #1 provisioner? That's hardly a good method to get your seals. You could spend 20mil on items to donate and not even get top 3 if 3 people spend 21mil.

If you're not going down this route either because you don't have the gil or because you're not crazy enough to spend 60mil on 9 seals then you've 3 options.

1) Ask 7 nice people to do nothing but hamlet for a week for no benefit of their own.
2) Create a static party and spend 8 weeks getting all 8 people seals.
3) Spend 3-4 months doing it with PUGs where every run will have 8 new people who need a seal.

How is this fun gameplay?

You can rule #1 out because chances are if you need seals you weren't around to help those 7 people get theirs. Why should they help you?

#2 you can rule out because chances are there aren't 8 people in your LS or friend list who need seals.

So you're left with #3 which is so off putting it's not even worth bothering with.

I've barely played this game the past 4 months because I missed the boat with hamlet and everyone has been busy with the rest of the relic quest, which unlike hamlet needs to be done multiple times.

In short, we need less of this shit in ARR if the game is to succeed.
