There are times when the term "bigot" and "nazi" are used inappropriately. For example, if you voted for "x" that means you are a "y" which does devalue words. However, it is extremely concerning when an actual bigoted post garners so many likes.
This is incredibly reprehensible behavior which I do not condone. I absolutely hate when people try to lump me together with the LGBTQ or whatever community simply because I'm transgender and then they speak for me like I'm part of a collective hive mind. Many of my friends are Christians and Republicans, I'm not going to hate someone simply because they hold different political opinions or religious beliefs. It's concerning how polarizing everything has become from people on all sides of the political spectrum, what happened to basic human decency?
It's disturbing how people can find amusement in comments like Rances, then again people find amusement from calling black people the N-word or making sexist comments against women. So it's hardly surprising or unexpected behavior on the internet.
Fantasias aren't canon and are a meta item with required flavor text because everything in this game needs flavor text. And even if they were canon, said flavor text suggests that they're a legendary item, which would lead to the conclusion that they'd be inordinately expensive not cheap.
Even accounting for the fact that FFXIV supposedly has a lot of LGBT players, I find it fascinating how often there's a creepy push for it to be considered to be a hive mind. It isn't - but the most vocal with a chip atop their shoulders are desperate to pretend it is.
Painting people as 'undesirables' for not being in full agreement with complicated issues is pretty abhorrent. Especially when it ignores the fact that at least some of those speaking out - myself included - are among the LGBT players themselves.

Nice, this didn't take long to escalate.

Is the player info not an option? :c Or is this a thing where you want the game itself to cater to you on this thing? Cause if it's the later then what you're asking for is a major bit of work load in a time where we're already facing many delays cause of Tom Clancey's The Division for such a little bit of pay off that it's really not worth it.
I suspect it might have something to do with the fact that the term 'bigoted' and similar phrases are thrown around so often that they have, on many fronts, lost all meaning.
To say nothing of the fact that many of us recognise that this is, at the end of the day, a video game and not a particularly suitable venue to bring up real world issues every five minutes - which is precisely what some posters seek to do based on their historical contributions to the forum and/or snarky forum signatures.
Please, defend a comment that is both racist against Japanese people by implying they're all transphobic (plus erases the existence of transgender, x-gender and non-binary Japanese people) and transphobic by implying all trans people are mentally ill. That's the comment that had double-digit likes that I'm talking about. I don't think it's "overusing bigoted" to call a comment like that bigoted.

I wonder how many pages this will go on for?
