To Xophious, why I cried about leveling in 1.19

Ah, my friend, you stated you would send my feedback along to the dev team in the thread:

http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...veling-in-1.19

and thanked me for my concerns.

..The only problem is, my OP was 100% untrue. So please don't send those concerns to the dev team, although it may be too late.

I was unhappy about the ..lack of moral judgment, shall we say.. amongst a few players who sought to appeal to the dev team out of their own limited interests, with no concern for the majority, and motivated largely by an addiction of which the attachment to FFXIV is circumstantial at best. So I wrote the most pathetic sounding sob story which I thought most accurately described the the real lives of those few I mentioned. I stated their concerns so that all could see them plainly, and so those few might reflect on what makes them who they are. I sincerely believe that those who take action on these forums to enrich themselves at the expense of other, absent, casual, players will mature beyond that behavior when they are exposed to greater perspective.

Usually when your thread is locked that means "end of discussion."

So you made up a story just to prove a point? That's not cool. What if you must send feedback to the developers in the future? They won't trust your words anymore.

That should very well be grounds for a full account ban.

Ok, so you were "concerned" about the lack of moral judgement! So because of your concern, you thought you were morally justified to try and tug on peoples heart-strings and make up a huge story like the one you did? Oh, just because many didnt believe you, doesnt mean your intention was not there!!

You speak of your disgust at other players moral decisions, yet it was you, who decided it's perfectly fine to decieve and manipulate people towards your way of thinking!

Ok, so some people find ways to "beat the system" at least their bloody honest about it.

Oh, and dont give this rubbish about "oh, it was in the mindset of these players i speak of". At no point did you EVER come forward and admit that in your previous post. you were more than happy to read the fact people were concerned for your well-being (ok, some took the piss, but thats a different rant for a different day)

You should be ashamed of yourself, stories like what you told can and do happen to every day people. Next time you want to make a point, don't make up other peoples experiences so lightly!!!!!

Umm ....have you not read any of his previous post? He did that Long ago if you had. My favorite is the one where he states he is having he whole LS log into the forums to report anyone who argues with him....It was priceless.

Isn't circumventing an administrator/moderator lock/mute etc. grounds for long term banning on nearly every forum on the internet?

Oh no, I think there were quite a few already in favor of that but saying so out loud can be dangerous for some if you're being reported every other post for piddly infractions.

This is thread is now about Twinkies! Now with 100% more science!

Yeah...it's not pleasant. I've was temp banned 4 times for piddly stuff after the last round of BS with Neptune, Giftfarce and Dyne. It's lovely having month old posts, 10 pages back on the forums, reported for sarcasm.
