    How often do you use FF11 Race names as derogatory FFXIV names?

    I still find myself calling some guys playing Miq's "Manthra's" and Lalafells as Tarus.....

    Anyone else?

    And I know I've been called a "galka" more than once :P.

    I only whisper "Galka" to myself to remind me of the better days when they had tails.

    I just call them by their xi names half the time out of habit. Not as any derogatory term. You play a game for 9 years then start a new one with same visuals renamed, it's a hard habit to break lol.

    I fail to see why would they be derogatory. I call Lala's Taru's, Roe's Galkas, Mi'quote Mithras, Hyur Humes, and Elezeen Elvaan all the time with no negative connotation whatsoever. If anything, I often find myself feeling a bit of nostalgia after using the old names.

    I tend to deride the people who use the XI names as relics of a past best left forgotten

    No. I have jokingly referred to myself as a "knife-ear," though.

    I see it as a sign people can't let go of the past. Welcome to Eorzea, what is a galka? You mean Roe?

    I don't view it as derogatory. I jokingly refer to myself as a girlka sometimes.
