Has anyone else noticed Yoshi's attatude at PAX?

After reading over every post in this thread, through all pages currently up, the only thing I can discern is that far too many players are acting like petulant children. We're suppose to be a community of players brought together through a love of Final Fantasy. Instead, people are at one another's throats over the dumbest of things.

Is the game perfect? Of course not. There is no such thing. That's why it's a living world. It's always going to be under constant change and development. Some changes will work, some won't. Some will fix old issues, some will create new ones. What we're suppose to do is give constructive criticism that the Dev's can listen to and reply to....but too many of us don't do that. Instead we bark, and we yell and we act spoiled, entitled. "How DARE they make mistakes!" "FIX THIS NOW!!" Instead of acting selfish, we should all just be thankful we even have a XIV to play in the first place.

They give up so much of their own lives just for us to have Hydaelyn to run about in. The least we can do is appreciate that. They could just abandon it entirely and shut it all down. Its' almost what we deserve for acting the way we do towards both the Developers and each other.

In regards to this whole civil war between "Casuals and Elites", it's become redundant. I'm one of those "Lazy Casuals" one of the previous posters referred to. I'm not here yelling about some new, all powerful weapon, begging to be on the same par as them. I take my time and I enjoy my life in Eorzea. IF there is something I really want, I DO work for it, but I am just not one of those who is so professional in how I play my character that I can't stop and enjoy the scenery, or just enjoy being IG for the sake of being there. I have the friends and family I have now thanks to this wonderful world we exist in together.

That said, I respect the skills of those more devoted to intense hardcore adventuring. Enjoy that weapon, you earned it. There's no need to insult those who aren't "at your level" though. Not every casual demands something for nothing. MANY of us just have our own way of enjoying the world. Just as many of us respect the Elites for what they are capable of. It's really all a matter of "to each his own." I don't think I deserve any less respect just because I'm a casual. I'm certainly NOT lazy. I work my butt off for those in my FC Family. I do everything I can for them and I'm glad they do the same for me. My FC is full of both Casuals and Elites. We don't see each other as one type or another. We're just one family, surviving together in the same world. As it should be.

Honestly, all this in fighting is just so pointless. Yoshi-P and his team work hard. Not everything they do is going to work all the time, but they still get up, despite the pettiness, the bickering, the whining, and they keep giving us more XIV. For that, I applaud them. Personally, I think too many have lost sight of what XIV's about...and that's the real shame.

Sorry for the long post. I don't reply here often. I just felt for once, I needed to get my thoughts out.
