Keep telling yourself that and trusting the fap bait of fan artists.

I wonder who Hordecore is in game. Wouldn't surprise me one bit if he's on Asura. I just want to strangle him: http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/th...-for-RDM-seals and Rambus: http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/th...vit-and-thf%29

I'm unable to come up with a good answer to that

Working in a retail/customer service environment for years has completely desensitized me to stupidity, now I just laugh and try to prod them on to more stupidity.

^This, almost.
I'm not completely immune, but highly resistant.

Plus reading the forums while drunk is hillarious.

Just to clarify some questions that have been popping up regarding these adjustments, KSNM99 BCs will continue to drop black belt-related quest items.

Also, another bit of important information you might like to know, the triggers needed to spawn Fafnir/Behemoth/Adamantoise will be tradeable.

Not shocked. Although not sure what that'll mean for the idea of more than 1 pop beign able to drop from an orb. I could see it just being 1 per orb. I could see it beign sorta beneficial for the turtle pop, because other than Egg, whats the point in doing Hills/Adamant/Aspi.... Although that could also mean inflated prices for those pops. I dont know, doesnt really matter to me what they do with it at the moment. If they turn kings into trials/synergy stuff for later on for kings/salvage gear etc, then i could see prices being majorly inflated.

Starcade is killing me in the "Is brew holding bannable?" thread. That guy seriously has some kind of mental problem and should be on stronger medication.

The thing about being a foreign speaker learning English is... you learn English. American schools are so piss poor they aren't capable of properly teaching students the rules of their own language.

1. Poverty has nothing to do with teaching language.
2. English is more difficult than most languages.
3. There is a lack of consensus on some rules of English. For example, some teachers argue that you only use an apostrophe when using the possessive with a proper noun that ends with 's', but others will say you have to use an apostrophe + 's' in those instances.

4. With native English-speakers, anyone literate enough to hunt-and-peck his way through a retarded post has a voice. The idiots who are native speakers of languages other than English who don't bother learning their own language properly are unlikely to be the ones who bother learning enough English to post on an English-language forum.

Or maybe my school was just fucking fantastic, since it taught me basic grammar and syntax. Somehow I doubt its exceptionalism, though.
