I enjoy a challenge, I hope the patches add some interesting aspects to the game. But to your suggestions, i shall number like you have, but my response:

1) Tbhy, this isnt a bad idea. It was effective on FFXI. I personally see no issue with this. however, would be a bit harder to impliment with both physical level AND Rank.

2) ONLY if they bring out other forms of transportation. for now, i see no issue with Anima

3)how will this make the game harder? As a function yes, but as i pointed out, it does not make any changes to the difficulty of the game

4) If you removed Anima and Teleport, how would you be able to do this?

5) I see no issue with this. no point in being able to kill an NM every 10 mins

6) No, this will corrupt the economy. The game will not befifit from ppl only selling high end items (and nothing more) at the Gil cap. Also, starter items will be useless to sell anyway

7) Fair enough, I see your reasoning to this. However, why not an option to buff all members at once? (out of combat, AND with the correct MP costs)

8) How about not having caracter transfers at all? I have never seen any benifit from this.

On a final note. there should be no difference between servers. If such ideas are implimented, it should be ALL servers. Or none at all. Changing the game experience between servers adds nothing to the game, and only segrigates the player community
