The difference between WoW and FF14

[SerLuke]

Nope. I fully admit that my paranoia is founded on hearsay as I myself find it very difficult to believe that a GM would take action against logical and constructive criticism but to be frank: better safe than sorry. I value my cat far too much in order to risk her well being.

Ah I just take that thing with a grain of salt personally, I found one person here that claimed to be the victim of toxic behavior when all they gave was "helpful advice" then someone who was on their data centered posted a screenshot of said "helpful advice" and it was basically a flame war between them and someone else cussing each other out, I just don't think people are going to GM jail for giving helpful advice in a kind/benign manner, instead of "LOL git gud scrub or uninstall"

I know for a fact that the widely used term "trash tier" is ban-able in forums.
I suppose the words that SE wanted me to use to describe the worst of the worst players is "players that are a tiny bit less skilled than the current top rated PvP players".

Yesterday was doing roulette and got Aurum Vale, the healer had barely any time to react since the tank was getting destroyed even by single groups.
So the healer asked "Why is the tank dying so fast?".
No-one replied. Cause if i said "Check his ilvl 20/30 gear" it'll be a guarantee warning for "harassment" at the very least if i got reported by said "tank".

At least its good to know that if i ever get perma-banned for being so "unbelievably offensive" to others there's a game out there that i can join and dont feel like the forums/game is under martial law.

My mate was totally all right with my question. He didn't feel offended. But he told me that some people were when he asked them in the past.

I personally think there is nothing wrong at asking about names, how old people are or where are they from. I think you really can't ask more neutral questions and I hardly find them offensive, but I've seen enough to believe my mate.

A whole lot of people managed to respond to the post you’re referring to there without getting bans. I am actually a little surprised you don’t see why the example you posted would net a ban... it’s a bit obvious if that is an actual exact quote.

I'm not completely surprised since anything can get you banned.
I saw a comment that told the very same person to seek medical help, which can be offensive but they're still able to post. It just depends on who reports you. Like I said, even disagreements can land you a ban. A lot of people don't care to post here because off the sensitivity. You never know.

Welcome to 2019 folks! Where most of the adults tattle! Constantly. On everyone. For anything. Because they were taught that "responsible members of society report wrong doing to authority figures." Most of the older generations reminded their children that the perceived rule breaking harmed no one and were told to return to play, whereas the newest generation has apparently been rewarded for "looking out" for their peers. It's a need for attention, plain and simple. People like to think that they're a hotshot when they get someone banned for breaking a rule. Argueably, this is why the community is so "nice" all the time: everyone's afraid to speak their mind because SE holds the great ban-hammer of legend - Mjolnir!

You were apparently never taught to be true to your word. You signed a contract. If you choose not to abide by it and are punished under the terms of the contract, blame only yourself and your own lack of character.

Case in point; typical attitude on the forum. For some reason, greatly offended my statement.

You have a vivid imagination.

Accepting a contract is one thing. In this case here, the contract has been altered and the actual wording is absurdly vague to the point that "unilaterally dismissing a players opinion" is a bannable offense..

Sorry but no matter how much character you have, you currently cannot abide by the rules SE has set because essentially: they are insufficiently defined.

FFXIV has fem roe and wow does not.
