I just beat T5!

You are a bit late for world first, sorry

And you're a bit late for first douche.

[SARCASM] You are a bit late for world first, sorry [/SARCASM]

People seem to be struggling with basic sarcasm. Had to edit it for you.

THE FORUMS AND TURN 5 ARE SUPER SERIOUS GUYS.

It is not a joke and it is not funny. It is an unhelpful put down for no good reason.

"I didn't laugh at it, therefore no-one found it funny!"

Please step down off your rickety soap box and lighten up a little.

Because sarcasm over the internet translates so well.

It's pretty obvious. Unless you're suffering form severe brain-damage or conspicuous social ailments.

"I did laugh at it, therefore everyone must have found it funny!"

Please step down off your rickety soap box and lighten up a little.

It's not obvious to everyone I just assume it must be cause I am always right in reading people I don't know's intent on an internet board.

There I fixed those for you because your assumptions are not fact and no more right or wrong than theirs. In fact since you took the step to edit that OP for her to make it "obvious" it was sarcasm, couldn't she have done the same if she wanted to? Or a quick reply to someone who was confused saying it was? One could surmise that since they didn't, they were in fact not being sarcastic.

While I assume it is sarcasm just as you did, neither of us have any way of knowing for sure so stop being an ass to people whose opinions differ from ours just because you think you know it all.

After reading what you said though (especially the brain damage part), I did get a chuckle out of the soap box comment. Pot meet kettle.

I've been told I have some mild Asperger's and I do NOT get sarcasm. So you want to insult everyone that is can NOT see your so called implied meanings/feeling in the the text? How about trying to be nice and supportive. Why put some one down about not being world's first? How could that even be remotely funny, sarcasm or not? Why is it so hard to be happy for someone else being happy?

Imagine your friend telling you about how his kid is taking their first steps, and you tell them it is not the worlds first. Or about if his kid grows up and becomes an astronaut and walks on the on the moon, and you tell him it is not the world's first. What does it even mean? Other than making fun of others discounting their progress?

Many of us "hardcore raiders" are quite happy, tho. Why are you always so angry in your posts, instead of being happy for us? :/ Why is it so hard?

I am frustrated by the lack of empathy and support for the new and newer players. I am not angry at raiders, unless they are busy putting down other players and saying crap like "not the world's first". I am happy they are clearing T12. There is nothing wrong with that.

You're making a rather large mountain of a mole-hill.

It is a mountain of bad attitude, and pretending it is mole-hill is just pretending to be blind. Instead of "not the world's first", how about saying "join our T6 runs and lets get a clear"?

Because this is exactly my point. Over something so small, menial and borderline pointless I've had two angry responses already.

It really really doesn't matter.

Of course they know they're not the world-first group, it's extremely unlike that the OP is going to take offence to that, considering every group since then hasn't been a world first group.

Absolutely no-where in their post does it sate "Lol T5 is old, GG you suck, we hate you, you don't deserve it"

You've literally just proven my point, in that you were able to brush over it and go "Well that's clearly sarcasm, every group besides BG isn't a world first group".

It's amazing that the forums will always find one thing that they don't like and make a HUGE deal out of it. I baffles me how people could function like that in real life.

I don't feel like sugar-coating it to help the medicine go down better.

Well that wasn't specifically directed at that person in particular, but more so for all swarming angry posts over something so hilariously menial.

I simply pointed out that people were getting overly vicious on something clearly intended as a small joke, taking it as the most offensive, cruel and hurtful thing next to telling Hitler jokes at Oktoberfest.

You can't expect everyone to go; "WELL DONE, YOU DID GOOD", "Time 4 T6!, CONGRATULATIONS xoxoxoxoxo!!!!"

And I got a nice piece of glamour gear for my NIN to show for it.

Of course, now will lie the true challenge. The Second Coil of Bahamut.

Congratulations and good luck with the next one.
