people are people, na/jp is irrelevant.

met some nice jp players in my 10+ years of ffxi and some insanely rude, and self centered ones too.
exact same for na/eu as well.

have seen many many shouts for "jp only" for parties in 11, never once though seen, "english only" as a requirement from na/eu shouts.

there is good and bad in every culture, none is superior to another in my books.
there are skilled players in every culture as well, again not one is any "more skilled" at mashing buttons lol, lets face it thats what ALL these games are anyway, it isnt rocket science.

why even talk about different cultures in the game, it shouldnt matter, let alone singled out like this (for good or bad tbh) O.o
