#FFXIVHEALERSTRIKE

[Telkira]

there's no society on the planet where what you just CHOSE to type out and post isn't absurdly rude and hostile.

i'm sorry that your life is so unfulfilling that you need to come into the a forum on a discussion of something that you claim doesn't affect you, just to feel better about yourself by trying to start fights. maybe you should go volunteer at your local library to reshelve books. it would be more productive than starting fights on the internet.

Dude.

You guys are unironically trying to organize a STRIKE on a Japanese MMORPG.
The fact that you don't even speak the same language as the majority of the game's playerbase (also said game's target audience) should have been enough to dissuade you all from thinking this was a productive endeavor.

I can't even type that with a straight face, I'm not even trying to troll, I'm just being honest. It's the type of thing that people joke about when discussing terminally-online MMORPG addicts.

You guys want to sit here and pretend like there's some universal, unspoken 'union' of Healer mains or something when it's literally not going to result in any meaningful action.
Nobody is going to partake, at least not in enough numbers to where it results in a meaningful or desirable outcome.

I brought this up in a discord server that I'm in and people's responses were "wait since when was there a union?" and I linked the thread and people started laughing. They're laughing at this very idea. I'm laughing.
That '#FFXIVHEALERSTRIKE' might as well be a clown costume because they're also laughing at you all for rallying behind this.

I don't see how anyone can sit there and accuse me of trolling or fishing for bait responses when the very concept is so ridiculous that I would presume it to be bait.
Actually, let me ask people in the thread this:

What's the plan?

Do you guys have an actual way of persuading people into partaking in this when all they want to do is probably play their game?

Are you guys going around advertising a discord in-game? Talking about it in /shout chat in Ul'dah or Limsa?

What will you guys do when people who just want to play the game get tired of it inevitably begin reporting people who spam the clown hashtag for organized trolling?

What sort of grassroots activity has actually happened aside from blogging about it and acting like you're able to make progress?
More people were (rightfully) upset over Haurchefant being butchered than this, and the devs actually owned up to that and admitted it was a mistake.

Seriously. Just think about it from the context of another game for more than a few seconds and then it'll probably hit you.

If not, gods speed and gods damn.
