I'm a lala and I say it's okay. I just gave you all lala passes.

I've only experienced actual lala-hate one time. I was still a lalafell (I go back and forth a bit) and queued into roulette as healer. I got Dusk Vigil with 3 others. I said hello and the tank immediately went "ew, a lalafell. Why do I always get lala healers?" and I, thinking it was a joke, quipped "because we're the best!" The tank continued to bad mouth me on the very first pull so I let him die *shrug* I asked if he was going to continue being rude, he didn't reply and we went through the dungeon almost like normal with the exception of the tank repeatedly trying to see if he could get himself killed by mass pulling, standing in literally every AOE etc. I kept him up because there were 2 other people with us not involved with his little fit. At the end of the dungeon, he said something to the tune of "well, you did your job. But you're still a sh*tstain for being a lalafell. You don't get my comm." That's okay, didn't want it anyway bub.

Other than that one incident, any lala hate has been liberally sprinkled with sarcasm and obvious joking tones. It does get to be a bit of an old joke though, the same as the DRG jokes get to be old after the fifty billionth time you've heard "luldrg" but every community has its proverbial dead horse. We just have a few more than usual ;)

It is not racism, rather a meme joke (as it existed after mog tribales quests too).

This is mine now


This is mine and you can't take it from me


*Hops into Noctismobile and flies away*

I'm fine with jabs and jokes here and there. As long as I'm not being attacked as a person over it, I'm okay with being punted and/or baked over an open fire. (Only if you use proper seasoning tho, otherwise it's a no-go from me)
