I've nothing against Dragoons or their jumping, myself. I was just doing an amusing thought experiment on how the second half of the jump would work. How it actually works doesn't really matter, it was just fun to muse upon.
I've actually not encountered any Dragoons in-character (Except maybe Crisiet, does he count? And even then it was more just goofing off than real RP) and thus have no real basis to pass judgment. And so I will seek not to.
It should be noted, however, that anyone can play any class badly - both in PvE and in RP. You can have the Ninja that doesn't move out of AoE because they expect the healer to keep them up while they do "massive deeps," and you can have BLMs who claim they can insta-win any fight by quick-casting Flare centered inside their opponent's brain-case.
So, maybe the stigma is less against Dragoons themselves than the number of bad players who gravitate to them? I dunno. As I mentioned, I haven't really RP'd with many Dragoons.
