Yah, right. Like we really have a choice these days on who to rank with? Maybe back around 2000 you could tailor-make a group which caters to what you have in mind. Not anymore. These days, we're happy just to have an air major shifter in the 20s to get the little extra experience to make leveling somewhat more tolerable. A healer? I'm sure there might be one somewhere between 10-51.

It becomes even worse when you hit the 30s and people decide it's important to follow cabal guidelines just so they can get inducted. It's helpful the game doesn't begin until after 25, y'know.

I have sat at pretty much the same rank for a few weeks now. I have the time to play and rank, I just lack the groupmates. Even worse, I get chastised when I do find a few groupmates because they're not kosher. That's pretty shoddy.



**This is is my kind little caveat - not trying to trash anyone in this post or add to any fire. I just think some of your arguments aren't as relevant as you might wish and it irritates me that you carelessly throw them out there like you did.
