Meleeing as a blm can work out fine if you've done it since the beginning and kept your skill capped every level. There are a few times you won't be able to, due to AoE, but it is conceivable for a blm to melee.

Is it really worth it? No. One, it gives the tank less time to recover from losing hate. Two, it makes the mob do more specials. Three, you may be tempted to not rest on occasions where you have 100%+ tp and the mob is dead.

So yeah, you can melee in parties, it's not *as* bad as people make it out to be. But it is generally pretty stupid.
