Looking at other Regions playing XIV

[LianaThorne]

A lot can be avoided is they took criticism normally. Like normal people do in any other game, region, place.......

I know plenty of people that do take criticism normally and yes, you're not wrong that we have *some* people that live in a bubble. However, I don't think it's necessarily fair to just slam NA and associate the bad apples with every single member of NA when every region has issues in different forms. I've personally been insulted for being American more times than I can count by members of EU, JP and AUS when I was visiting other regions to see what they were like and on this forum but I don't associate those instances with the entire region nor make threads about them trying to provoke hate. I just recognize that there are people who will be vocal/insulting regardless of where you go and try to give new people I meet the benefit of the doubt unless proven otherwise. I'm not going to get along with everyone's ideals and not everyone is going to get along with mine and that's fine. I just gravitate towards where it is good for me and let those who I don't agree with live their lives as well.
