guess you have a good server, + i have a hard time getting my points across clearly, i didn't mean that everyone was an ass i just meant that people are less likely to help out in a game like FFXIV oppose to something like WOW or GWAnyone that knows how much the game has improved since 1.x can't say anything because of NDA. I can tell you a few things though, many of the things you mentioned were afterthoughts to 2.0 and added in at the request of us, the fans.
Also, everyone I've met in this game has been super friendly or quirky. Even in earlier 1.x, players were helpful and nice, so I honestly don't know where you got the feeling of hostility.
This kind of answer. Pepeol forgot that we live in a world with different language. English is not my main and i kept having this sort of comment. Thanks for being kindly and understand thats its already hard for us to express our self in language that we dont master.
You must have been doing something wrong then because FFXIV players aren't nearly as aggressive as the lot in WoW crowd. XIV has a strong community base, and personally, I met a lot of folks who played regularly that were actually older than me (I'm 31) and didn't have the "0mGz L3et GearZ L0okit mY ePeen!". Of course there's always going to be asshats, but that comes with any group, and any community.
I just never really had a bad experience or met anyone that was overly hostile. In fact, the reason I even came back and stayed in game was because of a linkshell helping me re-familiarize myself with the game after I'd been unable to play due to hectic school schedule. It was very hard to come back and pick up after so much had changed, but they helped me through it all without so much as a complaint.
You probably just hung out with a wrong crowd or something.

I speak another language too, and sometimes I struggle with English because of my thoughts racing in Spanish (my other language). Still, I try my best![]()

You've said that before, Gifthorse, but when all your posts from your various accounts have the same misspellings and odd sentence structures, it makes it easy to see who you really are.
for Christ sake man i was not and haven't been treated badly that's not what i said, i was treated well and had my own linkshell for a while that did well, if you actually read what i posted i was suggesting that the game style dose not leave a great deal of players wanting to freely help one another the game is based on groups of 7 but most people just play with there guilds and thats because of the way the game is made if you cant understand that or agree with it that is fine but don't twist my wordsYou must have been doing something wrong then because FFXIV players aren't nearly as aggressive as the lot in WoW crowd.

people can talk about whatever they want, however they want- it's just really goddam annoying when they keep making the same thread 27 times per week. like this one.
bottom line is if you want people to take the time and effort to give serious feedback, take the time and effort to search the forum first for threads like the one you're about to make BEFORE you make it. chances are we already have five or six of them already active

as you can tell by my 15 post since 2011 im not exactly active on the forum so i guess that is a fair enough point, i just wanted to get my opinion out there i honestly didn't know it would be taken so badlypeople can talk about whatever they want, however they want- it's just really goddam annoying when they keep making the same thread 27 times per week. like this one.

well... for Forum etiquette, one usually use search for the topic if there is, and post it there. Not making a new one unless there is already an existing one.. .
But generation nowadays are very much too hasty and lazy. :3
But forum etiquette also says that if a thread hasn't been posted in after so long, the thread should be considered dead, and a new one should be started.
Posting several threads saying the same thing in rapid succession is bad.
Posting in a thread that hasn't had any activity in 7 months is also bad.
