We Need Representation Here More Than Anywhere

Hello fellow gamers. I know we all love playing FFXIV, despite its flaws, because we know its an amazing game. But it can be better, and I want it to be the best it can possibly be. And to do that, it needs more representation.

So I know you guys have all done this, and its annoying. How often have you called a phone number only to be greeted by an automated menu? You press and press and press buttons over and over again only to be greeted by more canned voices telling you what to do. Its a system that plagues the entire world.

And Square Enix is no stranger to this method of screening calls. It seems like cries of "representative" into the phone go unheeded, and you're trapped in a never ending string of robotic voices telling you to press 1 for some option you never want. Its finally time for SE to bring its call center the representation it needs to serve the community.

I'd like a Dave's Double with no onions and extra pickles.

Baconator, no pickles, large Dr Pepper, and a chocolate Frosty.

No, I don't give a damn that it's -4 degrees out. If my craving for a vaguely ice cream-like treat is offensive to the natural order, I will face God and walk backwards into Hell.

Ohh, never been to a Wendys. Think they have only just started opening in my neck of the world.

I will take... a burger! You know the one. THAT burger. Yes. That one. You know...

Good shitpost but I also hate all of you.

I'm feeling hungry now and I want a burger but I'm stuck at work and it's 1:15 AM in the morning.

I curse all of you and hope you all have food cravings when you're all at work and can't leave the desk.

Grab a Snickers. You're not you when you're hungry.

Nah... grab a Mounds bar. Unwrap it. Then toss it into a crowded public indoor pool. Then just sit back and be entertained.

Baby Ruth is at least edible so it would be a waste. No one with a functioning sense of taste would miss a Mounds bar. lol

Do we? I think characterization precedes representation.

I was mostly kidding but I do appreciate your advice haha.
