    How about all FF's that NIN do have throwing? FF tactics, FF3, FF4, FF6. Yuffie technically doesn't have a "Throw" command (isnt there a throw materia?... idk havent played 7 in so long), but she's still Ninja-like and still throwing something ALL the time.

    Anyways whatever, my strong opinion offends you, so I'm sorry I'm not just like you, I apologize for being different^^

    No, Whats funny is that fia and you yourself, With that post, Just proved that Final Fantasy Series has not always given Ninjas a Strong Vital Throwing Ability.

    So why does it matter if FFXI's NIN is more like FFVII instead of the one in Final Fantasy Tactics?

    I can see though you've noticed that your suggestion was terrible and not thought out at all, And have just resorted to bad trolling and acting nonchalant about the entire thing.

    oooOOoo, why so serious? You think I'm backing out? I'm just bored and I have better things to do then study algorithms of current game mechanics, and argue with zealots all day on forums.

    Seems like the only way to feel comfortable with getting your point across, is to totally null and void others, make them feel bad about themselves and instill your sense if hierarchy upon them. Which is another reason why I'm tired of this trash talk session, where all of you get your panties in a bunch and can't have a sense of humor, because the most important thing you need to attend to, is your ego.

    I said I was done a few posts ago, find another thread to infiltrate and eliminate.

    Perhaps I struck a chord, is that why you're still here? Either that or you're enamored by how someone who doesn't share every single viewpoint of the western world, could have such a fine grasp of the English language?

    I never said that there aren't FF games that do what you're citing. You asked for someone to prove that FF games without Ninjas having a Throw command being one of their key points. I did exactly that. Hell, I even admitted that FFVII is a bit of a gray area, though the Throwing of Yuffie is merely an aesthetic Throwing, not a gameplay mechanic.

    Not sure at all why you're mentioning this and trying to bring it up as a counterpoint because I already mentioned it in my post. Yes, it has a Throw command Materia, but since everyone can equip every Materia, it's not a key feature of the Ninja class or closest representation of it in the game in question (the characters appear to have jobs, but they're all exactly the same aside from Limit Breaks and stats). We could argue this point on semantics, as I'll acknowledge that in the terms of role-playing, Yuffie is a Ninja and throws a Shuriken during battle. But as far as gameplay is concerned she isn't throwing squat, her damage would be exactly the same and she would play exactly the same if she was wielding a Kunai or two. And I acknowledged this in my initial post, though in less words.

    Your opinion offends me? Nope. Actually, if there were a way to make Shuriken tossing viable in FFXI, I'd be all over it. I loved throwing Shurikens in the lower levels when the damage was roughly that of a GAX and the delay roughly that of a dagger, when Haste gear and the spell(s) weren't readily available. I honest to goodness loved it, and I miss it. But do you know what I'd miss more? Not doing good damage and playing a job to the fullest of its ability. Sorry to say, but this does not include flinging shurikens at mobs. And unless they do something utterly and stupidly ridiculous like adding new shurikens that are easy to come by that have retardedly massive damage (and I mean an unrealistic number for a shuriken - going against the RP mentaility, as it'd be completely out of the realm of feasibly possible), there's absolutely no way to make it viable. Not with the way the game mechanics currently work. And if they were to change the game mechanics, I'd much rather them use that time and effort (yes, it would take lots of both to make it happen) to do something more worthwhile, like make Ninja better on mobs that aren't comparatively weak - and Throwing skill isn't the way it would happen. No, I'd love it if it were feasible, but sometimes you just gotta realize that what you want can't happen.

    The only part of you that I find offensive is basically what Krabknuckle is pointing out. You're quick to rage, quick to insult, quick to pull the RL card and call people fat/ugly/stupid. You're racist. You're stupidly hypocritical. You don't listen to logic or reason. You don't listen to math (which is something that's not under the scrutiny of opinion). Basically, you whine and complain and act like a total dickwad towards anyone who disagrees. You're throwing the internet equivalent of a combination of a grade schooler learning how to call people bad names, a two-year old throwing a "terrible two's" tantrum, and a high-schooler that thinks they know everything and listen to nobody. Stop your bitching and grow the fuck up.

    I'm sorry I couldn't finish reading this last part of your post. I was too busy lauging my ass off, as soon as my eye caught glimpse of that Riker and Picard pic in your sig, which I will give you props for.
