You were simply being attacked from the get-go and reacted to the trolling accordingly.



Kiria, your attempts at being funny are putting me to sleep. Your attempts at defending your point are futile because they are meaningless in comparison to what this thread is really about. Nobody cares if you perceive yourself as some type of gaming communist either ("I just saw people posting on the forums as Final Fantasy XIV players" lol don't make me laugh... what are you, the voice of the people all of a sudden?). I play on a PC and my brother uses a MacBook to play games through Steam, the Mac App Store, and OnLive; so don't tell me you can't game on a Mac. It isn't as awesome as gaming on a PC, but then again, he chooses not to game on a PC and fulfills the rest of his gaming needs on a PS3 and Xbox360. He mainly got the Mac for music creation (which the Mac can handle better than PC's imo).

The guy that started this thread simply wanted to know who else plays this game on a Mac ... that's it. You're the one that called him a whining elitist, when in fact, you revealed yourself as a snobby PC elitist. You may be in denial, but you are a troll. I, for one, am interested in this thread because I would love for my brother to play with me, and I'd like to see who else is able to run it through a Mac, and how they did it. So far I know ppl have used Bootcamp to run Windows 7 and that the game runs perfectly fine. This thread is useful, but you, sir (madam?) are a waste of forum space.
You're right, he doesn't have to apologize to me, but he does need to understand that the way this post is worded it can easily be misconstrued.

Also I fail to see how the post is THAT useful, since he's basically asking if anyone plays the game on a PC made by Apple, since they are, well PCS just like any other. They tend to charge more for the same specs, but that's not really my point. One person showed they played via something similar to(or even a branch or fork of) WINE. The client is a Windows Client, there is not OSX client. There's no need whatsoever to know if someone plays on a Mac or non MAC PC, since they are ALL PCs. If someone can get it to play decently on OSX, that's a different story. But the OP didn't say anything about OSX, only a MAC, which isn't special at all since it's a glorified PC.
