    Do you also speak multiple languages?

    Or actually been around Asian or European people, I mean really been around them, like in their countries for extended periods of time?

    Because I have. I have lived in Britain for 2 years, Germany for 8 months, China for 7 months, and my most recent experience, Japan for 9 months. And the rest of the time was in America, mainly Texas.

    I think I am more qualified than you to say the following: There are just as many assholes around the world than there are in one specific place. Don't limit one specific place because you can speak the language of that one specific place.

    LOL at jps not being dickwads. Those same JPs who's culture has historically revolved around them being xenophobs. I'm sure you're all to familiar with the JP ONRY displayed in numerous jp seacoms. Fun fact most of those seacoms aren't because they had a bad experience with a NA its because they just plain don't want to play with foreigners.

    And before someone says it yes I know I was being a tad bit unfair to the current circumstances.

    I never knew it was so hard for Americans to think of the Japanese as simply 'people'. But no, they're either mythological saints or decrepit monsters.

    Isn't that how people generally react to those they don't understand anyway?

    You are judging players based on language barriers. And your "personal experience" does not make fact.

    You forget, as mentioned above, that every player is human, regardless of race or ethnicity. Being from America does not mean there is a 75~% chance that player is an asshole, as you have stated.

    Singling out one group of people does not make everyone in that same ethnicity the same.
