Class Abbreviations

[Shougun]

In case it was appearing like I was suggesting SE needs to change job abbreviations I was mostly just describing a personal quirk preference that things have a sound over just letters.

Like you don't say L A N. You say Lan, like almost a mandarin name- lan kai or something. Often things that don't have a good sounding but potential to make a sound abbreviations / acronyms get shifted a little. Like Why-fy, or lol is often just thought as sounding akin to lul (not L O L, unless you're a valley girl "like oh my god that's so L O L" or trying to be "hip").

Or at least that's how my brain goes about it. Even if I'm not going to say it to someone at least there is a 'sound' for it in my brain. Not an important issue, at least to me, just one I think is fun to discuss and share.

The true job abbreviations:

PAL
WAR
DAR
GUN

WHI
SCH
AST
SAG

DRA
MON
SAM
NIN

BAR
MAC
DAN

BLA
SUM
RED
BLU

Haha, perfect :P

Like SAM (in the game already) and my brain is like YEE SAMURAI. But MCH.. Mmmmcch.. Ma.....ch... Matcha! If it was MAC at least it would have a strong sound association (might start some jokes on big mac job or whatever, but you'd never ever forget it lol).

They could always go with BUM for Blue Mage.

Changed my mind, it's important for SE to change the abbreviations. We need BUM.
