    Having done quite a bit with JP.. theres a few things you mentioned should be removed, but they actually do get used.

    The O and X are actually used to indicate yes (O) and no (X) to JP

    Keyboard:
    This whole category.

    - Mercenary Rank (every Assault rank has its own term already)
    - Physical (physical what?)
    - Skill (we have "Weapon Skill" and "Skillchain")
    - Treasure
    <Log><Please check it> (Log means chat log not log of wood afaik)
    <Enemy><Physical><Attack><Take care> (take care actually translates into "be careful" in JP.. not "see you later")
    <Mercenary rank><What?>
    <Sword><Skill><Level><What?>
    <Treasure><You can have this>

    - Change the terms "Buy?" and "Sell?" into terms that make it more clear as to what the speaker wants to do, such as perhaps "Looking to buy:" and "Looking to sell:", similar to how "Reward:" was made to distinguish from the JA "Reward". It's possible that these terms are only ambiguous on the English client but have clearer meaning on other clients.
    This is quite ambiguous... I have had many cases where I thought someone was buying something but instead wanted to sell to me ><

    - Open sea route to Mhaura (same deal here)
    - Silver Sea route to Al Zahbi (same deal here)
    - Silver Sea route to Nashmau (same deal here)
    Fishing routes

    Honestly, this entire category can go. People use the specific names for an equipment slot or a specific piece of equipment that goes in it, not these generic terms.
    A few that should stay: Artifact, armor, earring, racial gear (RSE), Ring

    As I stand looking out from my mog house window, I reminisce about the old days and the many ups and downs of my adventures throughout Vana'diel.

    It is then that I know achievement.
