Lesson Learned: FFXIV humor /= FFXI humor

[Lady]

Playing FFXI this past weekend, I saw an Elvaan named Giraffe, and announced the hilarity to the LS I'm in.

That was followed by a lot of O_o and o_O and in the end being called an in game racist.

Having not learned my lesson, I announced that taru fried in a lemon butter sauce was delicious in an abyssea party.

That was followed by a bunch of "WTF is wrong with you" responses....

you're surprised that no one understood XIV humor on FFXI?

most gamers despise FFXIV, of course they wouldn't understand o.O

I miss the old days in XI, I've been gone from there for like 3 years-ish now but while I was there the giraffe and taru-food jokes were wondrous and plentiful.

It seems that people there are slowly losing their sense of humor, I've had a few friends who still play XI comment on that and it's sad; the community used to be pretty good (Even on evil-asura XD), but there was always someone who'd want to piss on your parade for the hell of it. D:

oooo what's the candy please say strawberry or how about snozberry flavored

Whaaaat. Watermelon is the superior flavor!!

The dhalmel/giraffe jokes were FFXI humor that were brought about because of the disproportionate bodies of the Elvaan; buuuut you knew this already didn't you?

Wait a second... the Elvaan = Hume + Dhalmel thing was a joke from XI! Lady likely encountered newer players who haven't learned the old jokes.

Well, around here I think we get are fair share of all of that. Lol. I never played XI and I've always gotten the jokes.
