I totally agree with ya friend, kinda makes me 2nd guess talking to or even thinking of helping people I haven't known in game for years.

I don't play a big variety of games, I'm more of stick to one or two for long periods gamer but FFXIV is becoming so obsessed with no one getting their feelings hurt that it's getting crazy like how things are in the real world.

I play games to escape that crap and I really enjoy this community, been here since ARR day 1, but this over obsession on catering to not offending people is becoming exhausting, heck I have a black list for people who offend me, I thought that's what it's for, even those people I wouldn't want em to lose their game, I'd just want em to stay away from me.
