They don’t care. They want to inflict time sinks on you in pursuit of some wierd idea of fairness. My idea of the perfect MMORPG is time x in one mode = time x in another mode in order to accomplish anything in game. They are afraid of that idea for some reason. They’ll let you accomplish something useful in one game mode for another game mode but it has to take way longer.
