{|JP PT Only|} 忌々しい性交している神!!
Kind of odd what comes out of babelfish when you translate "God fucking damn it" into Japanese and then back to English. Anyway, is there any more annoying reply to a /tell when you’re desperately trying to assemble a party? For about a year, I worked nights and had the joy of being able to play FFXI during the early morning hours. As most of FFXI North American players are students or some combination of drug addict/alcoholic/nocturnal hermit, most of the people playing at that time are Japanese. Or at least they want you to think they are. I sat in Jeuno one morning and watched a couple people my level have a conversation in /say in English while I was browsing the auction house, the three of us with our lfg flags up the whole time. I sent each a /tell inviting them to join, hoping maybe today I’d actually be able to do something other than farm. Having better gear than everyone is nice, but getting past whatever level I was would’ve been better. Mid 50’s, I think. It was Pre-Aht Urhgan. What response do I get from these two douchebags? {|JP PT Only|}, of course! If they didn’t want to party then why the fuck do they have their flags up? I asked one of them that, and they replied they were waiting for the rest of their party to log on. That guy didn’t seem too happy when I told them what he could do with that light staff he had equipped. I don’t know if people do it anymore, but they used to talk about getting into an all-JP party like it was the holy fucking grail. Playing in the mornings, I can tell you it wasn’t. Japanese players seem a little more forgiving if you mistimed your weapon skill/magic burst, and they aren’t nearly as obnoxious as the majority of dumbfucks that I’m forced to share this great game with. Other than that, they’ve got all the under leveled subjobs, severely gimped gear and bullshit chatlog spam as everyone else. I guess since a lot of North American players think the Japanese people are some sort of higher beings that eat only noodles and shit gold, they ignore it when they’re just as bad as the rest of us.
