This is my personally opinion...

What's okay to me, Windower the basic form of it. I use it for one reason really. I use to play WoW (God I'm happy I left that) and I made a ton of great friends there. Who of which I all have on MSN or AIM. Now I love FFXI a lot so I play often when I'm on the computer. But that's also the only time I can talk to these friends. I don't have money to buy another computer and I don't think it's far for me to have to do something like that just to talk to friends I've made. So I want to alt-tab to talk to them and play the game. I don't use Windower's Plug-ins because I feel they're exteremly unfair. Even something as basic as the Expwatcher or whatever. I don't need to know how much exp I'm getting per hour, I can make a good feel for how a party is going or not, and mostly if I'm having fun.

I don't need to see people's TP, but I'm too lazy to figure out how to turn it off, besides I'm a white mage so I'm always looking at the HP bars, even when I'm not a healing class. It's a habit I've developed... good or bad.

But to me, I paid for this game and I pay monthly for it. It just doesn't seem fair to me to have to disable the rest of my computer while I play this... Anything else then just Alt-Tab to me... is just over the line, you really don't need it.

P.S. To those of you who don't use even Windower, I applaud you! But I just can't pull myself to cut the only line of communitaction I have to some of my friends.
