How can anyone thumbs this up? Before there was an alternative to Arenanets templates that worked better, and didn't cost a thing. Arenanet made sure we can't use it so we wouldn't have an alternative. Before there was an alternative there were no templates at all. That was the point. As for Anet making sure that ARC templates could no longer be used, it has been well documented that the only reason that those were allowed was that they would be removed once an official version was implemented. As for why ANet chose to make them in the fashion that they have, well that's a business decision. But, I'd rather not derail the thread arguing this point again as there are plenty of other posts about templates where this has been covered ad nauseam.
