Shame

living hell?

No, their number of dead and destruction is probably the lowest all similar disaster.

Can you imagine what was it like in india 2004 with a 30 M tsunami? or the earth quakes in china that killed over 3 millions people?

i respect their country for being so capable and preventive. (if you didn't know, they even have tsunami protection for 6M, but as long it beyond it doesn't work) Althrough, i have no idea why it is 6 M and not 10 M. That extra 4 M cheapskate is also a cost.

But they still have to live through it, we can't all just stand in one place and pray for them while starving ourself. Gaming is a luxuy, we can afford luxuy because we can afford it. If they don't provide this luxuy to us, we will just take our option to others. In the very end, those who doesn't work will not get food.

If SE just stand there praying for their brothers then they simply will starve tomorrow when their customer leave them. Beside not like SE can go swim in to save people.

everyone have their own job they can do and can't do. It is SE's job to listen to us , improve their games, and feed japan for the tomorrow.

Irresponsible people like you will just pray every day like monks and thinking you can get a piece of the pie of our tomorrow.

Irresponsible? pray? Please, you don't know me so don't talk about my life. I didnt' mentioned I will pray for them because that don't fix anything in this life. It is called "social conscience". It doesn't means we all have to forget our lives but it means there are thing you can do/say but there are thing you can't.

There are a lot of disasters in the world and will be more of then in the future years, that's the reality. We all have our life it's true, but do you think it's normal to ask for an EARTHQUAKE in the game?? I don't think so. Video-games are a luxuy like you said and if you see you are paying for nothing, don't pay this game.

Living hell??
Tell me what your definition of hell, but I think when a wave destroy your town, kill some of your friends and folks, maybe it's not hell but it's close ot it.
I don't say we all have to write about the situation of Japan but please, don't ask for petitions like an earthquake in the game. Maybe I'm wrong but it's just my opinion and if I am a irrespoonsible for asking people not to write post like that, yeah I am.

It is a game forum, so talking about the game is normal under any circumstance.

Some people definitely need to practice more restraint in the comments they've been making about the disaster in Japan. But there's nothing wrong with continuing on with debates about FFXIV.

Just don't expect the servers to come back up for a while.. or for new content any time too soon.

If you want some real information about the reactors, don't listen to the news. This is an article from MIT's Department of Nuclear Science and Engineering which will give accurate information about the reactors, not the garbage you see on the news.

Also, this is a game forum where we discuss ways to improve a game, not really a place to discuss what's happening in Japan. There are numerous other sites that discuss it already. We all want the SE staff to be safe, of course, but this is a game forum.

Maybe you should've just responded to that one particular thread instead of being "ashamed" of us all. We can all still hope that Japan recovers from these disasters and talk about new content we would like to see added to the game in this gaming forum. The two aren't mutually exclusive.

Sorry but all this "life goes on" crap is wicked rude. What if things turn for the worst and both games are shut down permentally. Yes life goes on, but many of our fellow gamers just had their lives cut short. Many of the teams that brings us ganes had nembers of their families or friends had their lives cut short.

Sorry but debating this situation or making crude suggestions, or doing pointless debating should be keot down. Some of us lost japanese friends we played with.

Talk about the game just please be mindful of the situation. I'm pretty sure that if we had a second 9/11 we would still be talking about it. And not make suggestions on having events in game like that.

I'm not saying every topic should be like this. But limit the "life goes on" or trolling on said threads. Which has been going on. If you don't wanna see morning don't click it.

Jennestia, Grit and Raxxon, you are all right guys. I got to change the part "People talking about add new NM's, new classes and worst of all" because that's normal. In my opinion will be better if they ask for those things in a couple of days, but what really gets me mad it's all the thing about "an earthquake in the game". That's not funny. Because you are right, I'll change that text but I'll keep the text about the other thing.
Sorry if anyone get offended for my post but that is my view point.

Talking about adding earthquakes is just incredibly insensitive but adding new NMs and improving on other systems I don't see as insensitive. The Japanese aren't panicking as much as the rest of the world and the media is just blowing everything out of proportion with inaccurate information. Instead, they're trying to stay calm and fix what has happened and I think the rest of the world should calm down a bit as well.

Having normal game conversations is probably because we realize there isn't much else we can do right now. Going over there to help might not be a good idea since a lot of us don't know enough Japanese and would just be in the way and the people who could help would just be babysitting the foreigner. We could donate to charities but other than that, there isn't a whole lot to do about the situation.

Nothing to see here. Move along everyone.

You're right, man and for that I changed the post

[Abriael]

There have been several threads about the situation in Japan.

Do you somehow feel that people should use the whole forums to talk only about that?
