Why so toxic?

[YISUG]

its not "toxic"
its just everyone here trying their best to prove each other wrong on ideas and opinions
its like almost always when you enter an idea or suggestion thread there is this first reply "No. /10char"

Kids are off for winter break I suppose? Not this entirely thpugh and there are some exceptions.

Because people constantly post stupid threads.

If people post threads with intelligent commentary about the game, ideas or opinions that warrant discussion. Good on them.

But what we get instead is constant threads like the 'Why is Eorzea a clone of Earth'
'We need a cheap change-to-lalafell fantasia potion'

And 'lalafell hate crimes'

To give you some prime examples.

And 'lalafell hate crimes'

That is a legitimate concern. We've been victims of persecution and exclusion for too long I tell you!

Don't be such a Lalaphobe :^)

Dont forget popular (but deleted) topics like "Wonderous Tails is pedophilic" and "That native american gear is racist" ; )

To be fair, I don't think I have ever seen this forum more united than when that second thread was posted. It's like the moment Tumblr nonsense creeps its way over everyone just stops and forms a temporary truce, xD

Tumblr. Ain't nobody got time for that.

All jokes aside, I suspect the more vitriolic posting habits have increased due to numerous conversational topics brought up regarding the game. Let's see, we have:

- A potential jump potion
- Difficulty of dungeons
- Healer DPS or lack thereof
- Combat changes and how they may effect the game
- What jobs everyone wants

While some of these are more heated discussions than others, they all prompt highly vocal disagreement which may come across "toxic". Whether it is or not is up to interpretation.
