    I'm sorry to cause all the suffering for calling Miqo'te Mithra's... I know you must view me as an abominable person for taking such a harsh stance against justice in the FFXIV community.

    I just... can't live the lie anymore...

    Those with medical conditions or children in the room shouldn't read any further:

    Please God... Forgive me for what I've done! BUT I REFUSE TO CALL THEM ANY THING BUT TARUTARU'S!

    I will not insult you, but I'm done with this thread as the point has been made.

    I played FFXI, and I don't find the transition to new names all that difficult. You must have short-term memory loss or something if you can't remember a new set of names. Call them that yourself if you want (everyone will know what you're talking about, so its fine), but why force everyone else to call them that, and make SE go through lots of work just because you're too lazy?

    I drink a lot.
    This thread is starting to help embroider them into my mind though.

    I'm all for this if we get the customization options to make your character look like your FFXI mithra/galka/etc-character to go along with it too.

    I call them Miqo'te, Hyur, Lalafell, Elezen, and Roegadyn. Please stop posting.

    Except a majority of the community, aside from the uppity anally frustrated FFXI players calls them by their FFXI names. Roegadyn don't have tails. Miqo'te aren't nearly as furry. Lalafell don't look like horrid gremlin. Elezen players are far more annoying than in XI. Hyurs and Humes are the only ones who would be fine with a name change, but with the game's preexisting lore, why bother? Hyur isn't exactly difficult to pronounce. None of the names are. Move on. The setting and background for each race is entirely different.

    By "the majority of the community" you mean yourself and about 5 other angry lore loving forum goers? You seem to be the one acting anally frustrated, and I would venture to guess the actually majority of the community could care less what they're called.

    I recant my original post, there are people with the opposing view who obviously have way stronger feelings on the subject than me. My original comment was just a flippant remark to pass the time but a few people here got down to serious business... I'm expecting death threats PMed to me any moment now.

    I'm personally in favor of renaming them Human, Cat People, Hobbits, Elves and Big Angry Looking Blobs.
