    To make a "proper" poll in this forum though, you should have used the first post to say "like this post if you play on ps2" and reserved the second post to say "like this post if you don't play on ps2." As said before, dictating what people can or can't say is just going to make people want to say what you tell them not to, purely to agitate you. When you respond to their antics you're just furthering the problem.
    We've already moved way passed that, or perhaps you missed the 4-5 extra pages that had nothing to do with the OP. But ultimately it boils down to respect, people online in the vast majority don't have it. They feel that because it's not really them, or you can't see their face that you don't have to R.A.V.E. That's not saying that there are a few that have tact and present things the way they should (Raist and such). If the topic has nothing that really pertains with you (E.I.: such as you play a BLM, then why post a response in the PUP job forum.) Just because a post is there doesn't mean you have to reply to it.

    This has been here a few days, so I'm going to think that you're feeling lonely, so: "Hi there"

    In that instance you are correct, but I've brought more to this that he has. *Rolls up newspaper* Besides the Kettle is black!!

    Um... the main points behind my post were that:

    1) FFXI is most certainly not the most profitable MMO ever.
    2) Teaching you how to bypass the poll system in a non-confrontational way.

    I believe that does a lot for this thread since, as you said yourself, 4-5 out of the 7 pages were nothing but arguments and people provoking you to reply.

    My second post was inferring that you should follow your own words. "Just because a post is there doesn't mean you have to reply to it," is sound advice, but you should certainly follow it yourself. Had you not responded to the negative comments in the very beginning you may have averted the 4-5 pages of arguments and flaming.

    I should make it clear that I'm not flaming you or trolling your thread by any means but simply was giving you advice.

    1.) I'll correct my statement: It's the Most Profitable Final Fantasy title ever, but it's also got 10 years worth of service. A MMO is the easiest way to gain money, and it's not by any means saying that SE is hemorrhagic when it comes to finances.
    2.)Raist, Pg1 already said AND did what you were suggesting, that also didn't work.
    3.) True, my advice is pretty spot on, but there's a difference in a reply for the sake of being argumentative and disrespectful and replying for conversation purpose. You and I are having a conversation at this point in time, we're being civil. People are going to try and "Flame" me regardless of what I do, but in the end I personal don't care because they don't pay my bills, they don't control my job, the don't dictate my relationship with God, and don't have any effect on my personal well being other than the occasional headache. I'm an entertain by occupation, I've got to dance for complete strangers and pretend that I'm happy while I soubresaut my tired sweat rear down the street. I get judged on a daily basis, even by my own peers so at this point in life I'm kind of used to it. I thank you for trying to help, but like I said at this in the thread's life it's too late. It's best to <Flee> and take the words of Admiral Ackbar to heart: "It's a Trap!"
