The bright side is that this place is not really in any way representative of 'the FFXIV community', no matter how vociferously a few people around here choose to nominate themselves as the Voice of the Masses. It's a couple handfuls of people who have been thrown out of everywhere else, a couple handfuls who don't know anywhere else exists, a couple handfuls who have been told to shut up about the stupid thing they're complaining about in their usual communities, and a couple handfuls of wanderers who should know better than to stick their head in the dumpster but do it anyway. It's about as representative as your neighborhood on Nextdoor or a Twitter poll.

Definitely a new low for some of you, though!
