I'm not I am running around WG looking for a party a few peopl examine me and go hey why are you not /NIN for?

It's none of their business.

Then I ask advice to my LSs they say go /NIN on RDM.

Your LS is full of morons.

Then other friends, say go /NIN I am tired of hearing about /NIN.

Your friends are morons.

There are other good SJ that can be used with RDM

RDM can make use of many different subjobs. Most of your leveling life, those subjobs will be WHM or BLM. Anyone telling you to sub NIN in an exp party is a moron.

All the people on my server ever talk about is fricken how great /NIN is, thats all I ever hear out of anyones mouth.

It's an incredibly useful subjob. That's just a reality of the game.

Its making me start to dislike FFXI because I dont want to have to use it, even if for soling reasons.

If you want to intentionally limit yourself because you don't like a particular job, that's your perogative, but it's a pretty dumb thing to do.

I also played FFXI 5 years ago, and I was a NIN and I hated the job so fricken much I only did it because of my THF at the time, I dont want to have to level the damn thing. I still don't see, and people still wont fricken tell me what is so great about /NIN

/NIN is incredibly useful for some jobs, becuase it enables them to take on mobs they couldn't take on without it due to Utsusemi. Dual Wield is another benefit, but it's not that fantastic. The shadows are really what it's all about.

Also, if its popular, then why aren't you doing the popular things that people do these days? Why didnt you do what the popular kids at school did?

Do you know how stupid this sounds?

Just because its popular doesn't make it the only useful SJ.

No, it doesn't. But you have it wrong anyway. It's popular because it's useful. It's not just popular because a bunch of people decided that /NIN was what the cool kids would be doing.

It also doesn't mean it is good for eveything.

No one ever said it did.

I don't like following the crowed, never have and I wont start by going /NIN either.

Whatever makes you happy, champ.

Every couple of months, this big debate about /NIN starts up. We can go through all of that, again, some more, or people can just accept that it's a part of the game and move on.
