    The main problem you have is...
    *checks notes*
    "Calling your characters toons"

    Yeah that would do it!

    But either way, good luck with your connection issues.

    I am only just now realizing how rarely "toon" is used in FFXIV.

    "Toon" started with Cartoon Avatars in IRC channels and then was used to describe the 2D Avatars in The Realm Online and Ultima Online when those came out. The term carried forward into Everquest and from Everquest in World of WarCraft.

    WoW STILL calls player characters "toons" on a routine basis.

    That term has been used since MMOs started. Before, if you want to get specific. It's only the new kids on the block who weren't around back then who think it's some shameful thing.
