Fishing:

Fish for fish. Fish serve no purpose but have a randomly determined size that lets fishers brag to each other about how much bigger their best catch was than yours. Also you can only fish in the RvR lakes so getting ganked is always possible, and if you get killed with a fish on the line you were trying to reel in your ganker can take over and catch your fish and then slap your corpse with it it in new custom emote. Fish slap emote is probably most important part of this proposal BTW and a definite dealbreaker.

Okay, okay...
But what if such a character can only forage and can't create anything?

Still nay?

Somebody locked it, but I will response:

The thing is this would make the other 2 professions useless because everyone would prefer to stick to this one. You also would just need an alt to have crafting, as usually. So this essentially is having more for less work, and it's frowned upon by team members.
