Asmongold this, Asmongold that

[Conundrum]

I'm so sick of it. Everywhere I go, in Novice Network, in Limsa shout chat, in my FC, in my linkshells, on Discord, on Twitter, in the forums, on Reddit, everywhere..

LITERALLY EVERYWHERE EVERYONE GOES ASMON ASMON ASMON

I can't even escape this even if I go out of my way to avoid it because it's all the FF14 community is talking about recently. I'm exhausted. Can we please start talking about something else not everyone cares about him like jesus.

What would Asmongold think about you posting this on an alt?

He joined this month and is level 80, that has got be a record. lol

The "join date" listed is the date someone creates their forum information, not the date a character was created. My join date is about 2 years after I made this character.

Even if it's the date the game account was created, I doubt there's any record involved. Level boost, MSQ skip, Menphina earring for 70-80. You can level up very fast.

Anywho, SE already cracked down on this drama so there's no point trying to stir this pot in the first place.

Some people are very slow learners.

I'm also sick of hearing about the guy, and it's generally being driven by a small number of posters starting more threads, but I also can't help noticing that OP's character name is synonymous to one of the more notorious posters on the GameFAQs FFXIV board.

Which one. That board has about 15 of them.

A synonym for fire, a synonym for mage...

Mind you, there's about fifteen of him specifically at any given time.

Figured it was that one.

I find the best way to hear less about something is to make the 47th new topic about it.

so in your first post to the forums you started out with a complaint? good start

It's not the individual's 1st post on the forums. Hardly. It's just their first post on this newest account. Not the first, not the last.

I see a lot of very recent accounts posting on these forums with inflammatory or controversial topics . All have 1 or 2 combat jobs at 80 and almost all of the crafting jobs at 80 . Im starting to wonder if these are the results of all those phishing scams that went on and are accounts that werent recovered by the original owners and now are being used to troll the community in game and on the forum

No, I'm just willing to bet it's the same person who continuously sockpuppets on different accounts. A cursory look at their classes/jobs & minions and mounts on the Lodestone indicate level boosting. Pretends to have different opinions on different characters just to start a faux discussion/argument (it usually works because people can't help themselves).

Seriously, if you see a new thread created by an OP with a character account created in 2021, has less than or around 100 posts, and is unusually interested in some controversial and/or hot-button topic, it's probably the same person who had nothing better to do these past several months than create sockpuppet accounts to rile-up the forums while artfully taking shots against/or agreeing with these alts.
