Come on now. You don't get to deal with them all the time. There is big difference between dealing with one turd per day and deal with them all the time. Personally, I have not met yet person like OP did in FF XIV, everybody is kind, some people are making stupid jokes sometimes but not a big deal. I understand problem very well from WoW and I see how annoying it can get but I never really thought about it like I was bullied lol... I mean come on... it's some guy somewhere in the world that have such a low self esteem that he need to unload his anger on you... I don't see why would anybody feel bad about opinion of such a person and if he annoys you - ignore. I'm sorry I rushed with judgment I guess I can see how some people can be upset by that but I still wouldn't reduce "online bulling" problem to level of game chat.
