    Japanese or NA?

    In my opinion this can be deceiving and can give people the wrong idea.

    This has changed my point of view that was not something I could see right away but something I realized later when I learned that people were using Windower.

    Any one have any comments on this?

    Copied the definition from Windower website.
    Windower: is a 3rd party program for Final Fantasy XI that offers many positive enhancements to the game. It began as a simple program to allow the game to run in windowed mode and has evolved into a full game enhancer.

    Good Riddance either way, and I do not want to argue about anything, it's just that I feel real strongly about racism I am just really curious to know how everything panned out.

    Twas the reason.

    On the racism thing, after people told him to stop using jap, he claimed to not see how it's a racist term, because calling people mex or can isn't offensive.

    He got put on time out for trolling/shit posting. Dude then immediately made a sock account to circumvent the time out which results in a perma ban of the main and any sock accounts. He keeps posting thinking it's going to change. The same mods are here every day. He may get one or two posts in before getting banned and we remove his posts. So his hope of a dick riding thread end up in the forum of dead threads sub-forum.

    At least Feiwong was entertaining. Just keep reporting the socks and we'll ban and clean up the mess.

    Quit for good last month. All of the BG spam crew left so there wasn't much reason left to play. Popped on and wandered around a bit on my own. Got bored and cancelled.

    Should've sent me a tell you surly bitch. The fact that I play when you don't shouldn't have stopped you.

    I looked for all three of you guys a couple of times and nobody was logged on. It made me sad.

    Salya and Jom are on practically every day (although Salya less so lately, as she's working on some projects around the house), and I'm usually on during my breaks at work, and after work, per the usual. I am the hotness in my sweet, sweet plasm gear, but I'm also a gimp because I don't have Oatixur yet. Also, did you ever friend me? If not, I'll never forgive you.

    I did but I won't be subscribing again. I'm pretty sure I'm done with XI for good at this point. But it was fun to run around again for a while.

    Honestly, if a GM ever approached me due to my use of 3rd-party tools, referring to characters I should not be able to use with my client, I'd probably say goodbye in my linkshell and tell the GM that they can just perma-ban me, as I would not cease using the windower. It's thanks to the Japanese language input that I was able to make quite a few good friends, without the windower they'd pretty much go poof and that would be the end of it.

    When I started playing, the multicultural aspect was one of the things that interested me about the game. Unfortunately, I didn't realize that Squaresoft themselves didn't just ignore the language barrier, but actually fortified it by not even providing players capable of speaking Japanese with the means to do so. I understand that this issue was cost-related, but if the result is that players that seek to circumvent this issue wind up being banned for this very reason, then that just doesn't feel right. It's against the ToS, but seeing how one of the initial aspects of interest wound up being the very thing that split the playerbase in half, it would be nice if SE actually addressed this issue.

    Your friends leaving you because they cannot bother with romaji is just as ridiculous as SE banning for windower's JP IME lol.

    I don't recall saying that they would leave me, not to mention that Romaji are a downright terrible way to communicate using Japanese language.
