XI Wiki
Shit's like capitalism. If you want the best shit, you gotta roll with people who can get you there. Competition is good if it makes people wanna get better.
Ryko, in hindsight, you were someone who expected more from people you associated with but I wouldn't call that elitism compared to shit other shells did or said to their members. Might be because at it's core, the shell was founded on a buncha friends/randoms playing together and the rest came after.

Yes, but you are only really known here/older days at somethingorotherFAQs. Your level of hate is broad and generic, where mine is local and acute.

Why is it that when someone says what they think I think of myself, it's almost never correct. I think Rocl and Kuya are the only ones to ever really nail it.
Crap, does that make me gay?

Hmm, makes sense. Also, Ryu was a pretty bomb paladin. He should have leveled it earli--nevermind, we had like a dozen paladins. Originally Posted by AoE

I'm not concerned about the opinions of the Adaberkless.

And we come full circle, back to elitism
hi ryko, i did not know you in final fantasy eleven and i did not really consort with you on final fantasy eleven topics on these here interbutts. i do not think you are an elitist. i think you are someone that enjoys success and is not afraid to work hard to achieve it. you seem very grounded in other aspects such as being black and also being broke. you did once describe yourself as an MMO legend which i thought was cute and i like to bring it up every once in a while. I think that maybe your addictive personality might make people think you are elitist, i mean who the fuck else plays that much borderlands 2 and then goes around tearing one of the characters to shit. I dont think that is your elitism, i just think it is the natural depth you reach with most things you are interested in.
hold any doors open at shake shack lately?

There is absolutely nothing wrong with elitism. Problem which people generally associate with elitism is generally the elite looking down their noses on others. The Olympics is an elitist event, however Usain Bolt is probably not going to look down his nose at you because you can't run as fast as he can.
TL;DR, what were we talking about again?

I never thought you were an elitist, but my context was vastly different from everyone else. I just presumed you were the king of all assholes, but then I met you irl. You already knew this however.

Everybody on FFXI was an elitist. The game was designed that way.
