You may have answered your own question there.
Truth be told, when I first read your post, I was a little upset with its contents. I took your post personally because I am a player who subscribes to FFXIV for roleplay. I do enjoy content but it is not the main reason why I am here.
I realize in hindsight that you probably weren't speaking to roleplayers like me with this post. Mostly, because I do have a leveled character. (Though technically not anymore, heh.)
After first posting and then going back and reading the entire thread, your posts do come off as a little harsh before you explain them in greater depth in the latter pages of the thread, Dogberry.
I did want to bring up this post to at least say that I can sympathize with people who never hit max level. Roleplaying on MMOs is my favorite medium of roleplay. You're going to get fast response times, (IMO faster than IMs because the other person in IM RP is usually doing something else while RPing), premade worlds, avatars you can make yourself without any artistic ability, immersive graphics, etc.
There is a lot of reasons for why someone who is not that interested in a MMO playstyle but is interested in RP would choose to come here over other places. That's not to deter you from the points that you were making but rather just to give you some insight on a perspective that might seem a little strange to you.
