    People should be judged on their abilities to play a role, not by what race they are.
    +5 strength at lvl 50 and maybe -5 mind would hardly be problematic. Just a small bonus for people to choose a race that goes best with their favorite job.

    +/-5 is still enough for people to be judgemental. I like diversity in the jobs I play, I don't want to have to be the same job for every raid I do just because my 'character is better suited' for it.

    its not an attitude its fact 1 dmg is less then 2 dmg. people are that picky and if its so minute why bother.

    Ok, so taking it from your PoV and saying it's next to know difference...
    Then why the frick would you even care for such a "tiny" bonus? It's a waste of time.
    nothing wrong with it but if you guys lose a fight you'l be first to be blamed

    because of materia and gear peoples stats are already very different. I could easily take 5 points off everyone of my stats on every job and still do endgame with my LS. If i die on blm i lose sanction from my hat, i then switch to my militia hat which has 20 less intelligence (which isnt often) and it has very little effect. I dont even know why im arguing with you people because it seems you know nothing about stats in this game.

    FYI the way stats are will be changing in 2.0... so until you see how the stats work in 2.0 you can't really base it off 1.x stats...

    Though really I don't ever see a reason for this... what is the point of the different stats? If it really changes nothing at all why even have them in the game? I'm trying to see the reason behind this but I can not as it will not make playing a different race really different at all from how it is now... Please explain in full detail why you really want this?

    The cat is bemused =-.-=

    Then why make this thread in the first place ? on your first comment you mention just a 2% difference ..do you think SE will bother with just a 2% difference? if they do it, will have to be radical like FFXI where Taru full merited INT at 99 has like 30 more INT than an Elvaan
