Well, who knows why one takes up such causes. Like I said, ultimately, it don't matter much to me.I do not mean to sound offending but I fail to see why you have taken up this cause to have the palace jump removed? For each argument you use to have it taken out myself or someone else can counter with a reason to keep it in.
That said, I have yet to hear one even remotely compelling reason for keeping it in. I have no problem with people developing successful strategies (as I have said); I personally, in my own gameplay, draw the line (or at least try to) at taking advantage of a too-detailed knowledge of gameplay mechanics in the way that palace jumping does.
However, I doubt it will be patched, and I can live with it if it isn't. I hereby retire from the cause.
And no, you never sounded offending. No offense taken anywhere down the line...
