I’d actually say a lot of the people that come from other games, specifically WoW are perhaps not sensitive enough.

Some online communities you see offensive things and hear offensive talk so much that you just kinda forget that it actually is offensive.

For example if you say to me FFS healer you’re so dumb move out of the f’ing fire... id say that’s not you being rude so much as you having had that told to you yourself and seen it so much that it’s just acceptable to you. The whole demographic of some communities all talk that way.

FF14 has a lot of non-gamers, and people that didn’t come from that background. There’s a lot of younger people playing and you’re more likely to get someone’s dad playing. So I tend to use the language I’d use in real life around such people.

Not saying there aren’t sensitive people. Definetly it happens, I’ve seen people overreact to things quite a bit. But yeah, this isn’t 4-Chan or WOW and that sort of behaviour doesn’t go down too well, not just in FF14 but in any social setting that’s not 4-Chan or WOW.
