I come in here trying to discuss game design, confident in the point that I'm making. Other people argue my point without even understanding it, and then increasingly interpret my confidence as arrogance. I try to disengage from the debate and move towards the more civil discourse that I know and love.
This is HILARIOUS! It's actually comical because I know you believe this.

When people show me that they can't maintain a civil conversation about video games, I lose respect for them, and become dismissive of what they have to say.
So did you lose respect for yourself?

Really, it all boils down to this.
Most people here (possibly everyone except for Kachi) want PvE to be built open clearly defined roles in a party.
Kachi says it's better for PvE to be built upon the principles of PvP, in which any player should have a 50 percent chance of beating any other player (skill/gear ratings/etc being equal), which means jobs have to be balanced so everyone can heal/dd/tank/etc.
There is no "correct" answer to this issue... there is only what we prefer.

Dude I like you, and I think you are very intelligent so I don't want to get on your or anyone's bad side here...
But I don't think anyone's getting hung up on the 1v1 idea... I feel like everyone just thinks the type of gameplay you've described is entirely unappealing. It's pretty much as simple as that.
With that said, I think your ideas would be loved by other types of gamers, but it's certainly not going to fly with a bunch of FF fans.

Which angered you soooo much, you responded with:

So tell me Kachipoo, who is the one who took a turn down insult lane, and turned this conversation from being a civil one into something else?
