I think the issue between the JP and NAs is almost all a cultural thing. In general the NAs are more demanding, very short on patients, and extremely vocal on everything. On Xi with the partys a JP party would last for 3-5 hrs with almost no one leaving if they did they always got a replacement before they left, the JPs worked together and communicated with each other. In the NA partys people would just bail when they wanted out of the party and at least for awhile at the start they did what every they wanted to in partys... that is one of the reasons why JP players stopped partying with us alot, we where stupid, arrogant, stubborn noobs.
Honest to God, I found it to be the opposite in most of my XI parties. Most JP players would up and leave without finding a replacement, while NA and EU players did. (One explanation a friend of mine gave was that the JP's find it rude to assume a party would continue, while NA/EU players found it rude to not replace yourself.) This lead to a lot of frustration between JP and Western players.
