These forums becoming unbearable?

[YUGON]

But at least for me the forum has become much more bearable since a few days, for a single reason that I'll let you guess.

....rofl?

XDD

Agreed!

[gifthorse]

I don't hate whining and hating, but the one thing I do hate is people with no imagination trying to call the shots.

"Well FFXI did it this way..."

"FF7 did it this way..."

"WoW did it like so..."

Get a brain people!

ima agree with op. And please stop debating in here, making the thread be off topic, debating about the fighting :3 Everyone in general is attack each other ve the topic, using post counts, not playing, etc etc to make their point mor right. That is called mudslinging. And that does need to stop. A lot of peoples post do have an angery hostil tone.

It is a game guys, we don't need all this drama, fighting, mudslinging over it. We are no longer discussing the game, but fighting with each other.

for example getting mad @ someone for posting
"don't expect cs, they take a long time to do" is a bit much, blowing up at then for
"not knowing about it" it stupid. Maybe they know more then you think, or maybe you infsct don't really know. But that is beside the point. Point is anyone who bought ffxiv can post here. Everyone has a right to an opinion if someone makes in error insomething don't get mad, fix and explain the error calmly. Everyone, playing or not, wants a fun popular game.
so lets just make up ok.

Criticism is valuable whether it's for or against your ideas. Debate is important to have or we might as well have Tanaka back. While I feel that a lot of people on these forums (thinking of two particular people with 1k+ posts) are waaaaaaay too involved and get way too sensitive about things.

Debate needs to continue but it needs to be constructive, when we get to people fighting for no reason then that's when threads should be locked. I wouldn't go as far as to say opening the forums is a mistake (as someone said earlier), rather the lack of moderation is a mistake. Mods do their jobs, but I feel they are holding back too much, I know the community is sensitive but by allowing the forums to become a warzone you create an atmosphere where people with valuable opinions or ideas are afraid to post them in fear of getting flamed.

I've reported a lot of posts, and they do actually get deleted much of the time. I would recommend anyone finding flammatory content or offensive posts to report them with the little '!' on the bottom left side of the post. If posts get reported then mods will look at them, I know they do.

Agreed!

You, sir, win the teddy bear.

To op- I just want say not all old final fantasy 11 players want the game to be like final fantasy 11

Exactly. I'm an old FFXI player, and I played it more than any other MMORPG (besides DAOC). Yet, I can recognize that FFXI was designed 8 years ago, for the market as it was 8 years ago. It wouldn't fit today's market, and in any case it's time for something fresh.

if you feel you like your going to post something you may regreat think of this word and don't.

Overstating what is on your mind or being TOO honest is what is wrong.

You don't need to spread gossip or slander other posters.

Like ave I think you went too far in bringing up "other posters"

my suggestion we have an interuduction thread and learn about each other. Instead of reading how they post and paint a false picture about a person. Don't judge a book by its cover. A person could be nice and you wouldn't know because of a post made on a bad day, and your forever paint them to be a "troll".

Like yes, i do call ppl that on a post by post basis.If they being rude in a post i will "calmly" say it in hope they see how rudw it was and maybe edit it for not being rude. But I don't think they are a troll forever. I but 99% of you are nice people. And I wouldn't know that just by your posts.

[Shelia]

Post counts don't have anything to do with whether someone's opinion is valid or not.

Anyway... on topic, here...

I'm considering staying away from these forums for good. Maybe I'll check in and out if there's updates and dev responses on things being discussed. lol
The sheer amount of unwarranted self-importance, whining, and repeat threads is driving me INSANE. This forum community is amongst some of the worst I've seen in years. At the very least people could look through the other threads before making a new one. Just today alone I saw 3 or 4 threads about "hardcore" players and what they want. The worst part is, the whining isn't even constructive anymore. It's just ridiculous. Ugh.

Look enough noting casual or hardcore say does not matter there doing it anyways.

Everyone can rest assured that the raid dungeons and content that we're planning to implement in the future will feature not only tough battles, but also challenging and exhilarating bosses. The nitty-gritty details are tied into the future rollout of Grand Companies which we'll be announcing the juicy particulars of at a later date. I hope you're all looking forward to it with bated breath!

Since there's nothing new under the sun...









rip off all the good ideas instead of the bad ones.
