Curious

The bulletin board idea was actually brought up in these forums.

After peeking in and reading a bunch of their posts it makes me want to slap some people who are just so damn ignorant about races and how they think people from different countries are.

These people have the same views as us, eat, sleep, breathe oxygen and play FFXI just like we do. It's just such a damn shame to keep hearing the bull crap about stuff like this.

Anyway, I think Google translate opens many opportunities to actually to go out and mingle with other people with different cultures and such because this is a whole lot better than the auto-translate function we work with in the game. BLEGH

Really? I must have missed it with all the Abyssea complaint threads and what not ; ;

Oh no, I'm not just talking about on these forums but in FFXI the game itself.

Also read a little bit of "The go "Solo it" fever" thread, its also in there as well.

I have ImTranslator on my Mac & it works amazing, very accurate & the such. I have been reading the JP forums a lot as their topics & suggestions are very good. I have only seen 1 thread about the servers & it was about moving them to a different location (I think only like 3 or 4 replies). They seem to really be interested in the Dynamis update & job changes. One thing you do not seem in their forums is negative people. I have read 6+ hours of threads & only seen a handful of negative responses. it is as if they actually have respect for other peoples opinions (unlike American's who will put someone down for saying anything they do not agree with).

We could stand to learn a lot from the JP. They are in a time of need & are still in good spirits. they treat their fellow players with respect & accept everyone's opinion without bashing them for it.

Way to go guys, keep the spirits up & think good thoughts^^

ooo reading that rough translation hurts my brain ;p

Not saying this is anything to do with it but I know the English language we speak is so versatile that something said can be misconstrue to something else.. Its funny to see them have the same topics (such as moving servers and info about updates) and no one is jumping on them about caring about the game instead of the crisis at hand..
Then again maybe they are just respectful culture (which is probably true because they derived from honor and respect to others in their culture) where American history is full of hatred, rebellion, and discrimination.. if only the Indians killed columbus and any other invading foreigner what a different culture this would of been..

We actually have a lot of repetitive threads. You kind of have to scan the 18 pages of threads to see all the different stuff that has been said.

then there wouldn't be any culture ; ;.

I might have been born and raised as a chimney sweep. I do not approve.
