I think all the grind cry babies have been spoiled by WoW and so has MMO's in general I got to lvl 80 in AoC in 10 days and I work 45 hours a week and help the police activity league teach boxing to kids, that really sad that MMOs are now way to damn easy to reach max lvl and all I did was solo quest to 80, I really hope Aion does the grind like Vanguard (the only thing I think was good in the game), where they make questing+mob grinding work together, in Vanguard you quest to lvl 20 then the quest you get to get good gear and such lead you to areas where the mobs are meant to be killed by groups to get quest done areas like Dargon's Tomb and Cortie Infenium sanctuary where solo is a waste of time. I'd like the grind in Aion to be like that.
P.S. I hope my English was ok I'm from Japan but moved to USA

Yes, FFXI group leveling was perfect IMO. During the game I will admit that there were times where I wished I could just go out and solo instead of seeking party in Jeuno or some thing, but after playing other games thats what I miss most about FFXI, is the group content and the fact that you couldn't just solo grind to max level in 3 days like AoC and other games. Also when you finally hit max level it actually meant some thing, and not everyone on the server has 3+ max levels after the game has been out for like a year.
For me I would prefer to grind with a group than to just sit in a spot by myself grinding, I think it also forces people to really learn there job in group grinding and prepares you for end game raiding.
