I never really asked this one, not that I recall, though I have shoved my views in others' faces... so here's the question.
With the release of 4th job, and skills like Sharp Eyes, Hurricane, and Snipe, has the bandwagon of players flocking from other classes affected you in any way, shape or form? Are you losing training spots to them? Are you finding yourself lacking motivation recently? Have you noticed others treating you differently for being a bowman?
Personally, I have no problem with people playing what they want to play, but the bowman bandwagon sickened me to the point where I almost quit my hunter. I've gained a whopping 4 levels (more like 1 from training, two from being begged to CPQ, and one because my girlfriend was playing my hunter) since 4th job came out because quite frankly, I can't stand it. I remember when people talked to me just because I was a hunter. I remember back when people thought bowmen were nice. But now....
I look around, and what do I see? Bowmen everywhere, with sauna robes and brown work gloves and snowshoes and brown bamboo hats, promptly being replaced by Zhelms at level 50 exactly. I see pricks tarnishing the bowman name with KSing a-la-sin-style, people cursing me out because "You're a nobody until you can be my SE mule. And quite frankly... it's driven me to the point I've wanted to quit my beloved hunter entirely.
Has it affected anyone else this negatively? People tell me to stop whining and get over it, but is it so hard to have people not peach at me for not having SE at level 47? I mean seriously.....
