JP Only!

[Tupsi]

The problem is "JP Only" doesn't just mean Japanese language only?

The thing is - it actually does mean Japanese language only most of the time, especially after talking with many of them throughout my 11 years in FFXI and 3 years in FFXIV. There's always exceptions but you're making assumptions it's them being racist when it's not most of the time. Unless you yourself are fluent in Japanese they have absolutely no way to know if you're a Japanese person or not unless you used a translator. (And they can tell.) Your client language means nothing as you can change that to whatever - lots of Japanese players play on the English client as well as the Japanese one.
