    I thought it was pretty clear to see the roegadyn PLD said to Derplander "Are you alright?", as his mouth movements definitely fit that phrase. Or maybe I'm just good at lipreading. [/QUOTE]

    Why do people call that warrior derplander? Just curious :3

    1.You have the outspoken 'we're loving it' mob who are probably ignoring issues.
    2.In addition, there's the optimistic 'I'm having fun and waiting for more' group, who are willing to overlook some things and hope others are fixed soon.
    3.Then there's the 'I really want this to work, but it isn't' group, who see some faint promise in the game, but don't have a lot of faith that the developers will fix the large problems anytime soon.
    4.Lastly, there's the 'I dislike it, therefore no one can like it' group.

    Hehe, it's an old meme on this forum dating back to version 1.0 - I believe it was Vilheim and a couple of other people first started calling him that due to the silly faces he kept making in the trailers long before ARR's launch.

    For lack of anything else (official or otherwise) to call him the name kind of affectionately stuck - it's not being derogatory towards him, as lets face it, we'd all want him in our parties, even if he did do some silly things (like let his gear condition degrade so badly a single Garlean gunshot destroyed his AF helm, and left his Bravura behind on the battlefield when Lousioix teleported him to the future).
