I don't think you're visualizing my point either, nor my grand idea.

I'm actually half-way serious about letting everyone have the option to start out at level 50 (or 20 given your take on Stamina). Would save you all that trouble of being Stamina-less and you could just skip to all that epic content that's so much more favorable.

As for why on Earth do I care? I have a couple reasons. I personally don't like being asked to join my team and then quit moments later when they realize we're not in AE, grinding away. I also don't appreciate the sudden increase of emails from influence/powergaming selling service reps with their silly "asdwiegtf" names flooding my inbox. So far, my email's been one big spam pile. Which leads to another great idea: friend-only filtering for email. Please oh please.

Here's the idea:

Let's just give everyone the option to start their toons off at level 50 with all the ultra-rare recipes on hand!

Would save those poor, farming, powergamin' peeps all the time and trouble of whipping through AE missions in Atlas, in their attempts to get as many toons to 50 as fast as possible in their quest to find the "perfect build". Hopefully then, these people will become extremely bored and excel at obtaining day job badges.

Really though? Why is it that important to farm the heck outta AE? Why is it necessary to get one's toons up to level 50 as fast as humanly possible? Why is it some sort of status achievement to have a ton of level 50 toons? What is the end game for someone when they do have a ton of level 50's and the AE's smoking because they burned right through it?

I'm just slightly confused here as to what people's priorities are in terms of enjoyment and entertainment? All I am saying is perhaps one should stop and question why you think powergaming and farming makes the game anymore fun.
