JP Only

[Soukyuu]

No you are 100% wrong. I am WILLING 100% to play with JP players. i always have. Not one time did i say i would not.

From all the posts I read from you, it doesn't really seem like that. Even IF you are willing to play with them, this thread (and it's predecessors) as a whole screams "JP ARE RACIST", which is a generalization.

All i am saying for the 100th time is if they are gonna say JP Only i am gonna go to anonther server IF SE makes it. If they do not then i will have to deal with it as i have for the last 7 years.

People gave you reason why they might say it and I have to agree, my problem with your opinion on this matter is that you seem to believe they hate you if they say "JP only", which might be the case for some, but certainly not for the majority.

Wow, why did you suddenly get so rude and put words in my mouth? That's disrespectful and was totally uncalled for.

I didnt think that was rude. I guess i should have said "people dont like change" and not "you"
But you are defending the JP lol

Anyway i did not mean to come off as rude sorry for that.

Well im geting the feeling people are ok with being declined. you guys do not mind it. But i do. It does not matter i have said what i wanted to say. I disagree on this subject and i will always disagree. If SE is calling for these servers i would guess that be a hint. I will NEVER forget the weeks i spent trying to lvl my jobs before Asea and the People i could get that were seeking would say "JP only". then i had to wait for hours, parties would disband and i would of sent a full day seeking because one JP would not party. Now that did not happen everyday but it did happen. It effecting my game time. SO i dislike it.

We just have to wait and see if SE makes the servers. Im done here spellbinder you make good points and sorry if i offened you.

As I stated on the previous page, I am not here to condone the Japanese use of "JP Only", I am simply trying to help you understand why they use it as Reinheart and several others in this thread have also tried to do so.

Edit:

Well im geting the feeling people are ok with being declined. Ma you guys do not mind it. But i do.

I know I'm stretching this, but when I read that, it gives me the impression that you believe an English speaking party would never decline you.

If i was the right class they needed no. I have never been declined for an english party in the last 7 years. if you have then its for reasons other then what i speak. decline me because ima WAR and u need a Mage. I get it. But if i am 100% able to do the job and i still get declined before i even try then its a problem. Sorry if you do not see it but i do.

(Sorry i no i said i would leave lol but i must answer this one)

Edit:
Again i do not care for the reasons. It is stupid. I do understand. I do not go through this for years and not no. I get it. I just do not think those are good reasons to dismiss the full NA player base. I will NEVER see it as a reason. Hell if some people get robbed by a black person does that mean to hate all black people? or a white person robs the bank does that mean do not let all whites in banks? Thats what is going on here in a way.

Out of fear of being declined you rather just seperate everyone so you'll never be declined. Don't care about the other people who would want to try to mingle right? It's pissing me off that you have to be such a dramalama, because a few people don't want to play with you. No matter what type of servers you suggest, where ever you go, there will always be people who don't want play with you.

Perhaps us English speaking people are just generally rude/lazy?

I understand how they feel about the rude NA players many times in this game I have been commended by both JP and NA players for not just bailing and actually notifying the leader atleast an hr or so b4 that I need to leave and will try my best to find a rep. I never afk unannounced and I am always kind and helpful.

This is probly why I have never seen JP Only in all my time playing FF MMOs until now. I knew 99% of Ifrit Server in XI, had friends in every region, even had an RMT friend who I kept tame (shun me as you will he was a cool guy and helped me study Chinese)

It just saddens me that I get included in the group of players who run around thinking "me me me screw you! only me!" when I go well out of my way to please and help others.

Example: The party I hit 50 in was a JP Party, I was the only one who couldn't understand anything but I did my job and stabbed things. Few hours later I hit 50 but party is going strong. I had no gear to spiritbond, no other class that would get xp, no real purpose to stay. Most people would have bailed by now, I on the other hand stayed another 3-5 hours until the party disbanded just so they didn't have to hold and get another person. I would do it again and again without hesitation, its just how I roll.

It's just a difference of culture. In Japan, they are much more formal. Most Americans are more blunt and to the point. For instance, a Japanese business letter may begin by talking about the weather, the cherry blossoms, or a number of things before moving on to the topic of business. If it were an American letter it would be more like, "Johnson, I need those TPS reports on my desk ASAP. - The Boss."

People are always blaming the Japanese for not offering an invite. So I ask, when was the last time you spotted a Japanese shout, spent the effort to figure out the jist of what they are wanting, and then offer your services? Hmm? Seriously... If you have never done this... then I see no reason why they should do same.

You see a Japanese shout... Do what you can to help.
