The Official Forum fail thread: This game wasn't meant for alts.

[Alistaire]

Its not a troll.

Spoiler: show

Stupid gets what stupid deserves.

Damn, that escalated. As stupid as it is though, it's even more stupid to "track them down on other social media" to threaten over it. omw to browse the rest of it before it gets nuked.

edit: lolol...it turns out the headpiece in question isn't the same as what OP thought, basically making the whole thing a non-issue...not that it was an issue, but apparently even OP said ok to some post clarifying it wasn't the type of headdress you needed to be a god damned hero to earn.

It's the Lolcow phenomenon: if you see a source of lulz/cringeworthy political correctness or absurd virtue signaling, you want to see how deep the stupid/crazy goes.

That's fine for "checking out what else they've posted", I've done the same a few times. But to go "you shouldn't come to fan fest if you know what's good for you" over this? wtf @ that

[Edelweiss]

I sincerely doubt anyone is actually going to act on anonymous threats made towards this hyper-sensitive offendotron.

Like I said, it's almost assuredly being done to try and provoke further victim card usage or other lulz-worthy responses from this goldmine since they've shown to be receptive to the usual trolling methods.

Unless he has some sort of proof, attention whores like that probably sent the message to himself to show how victimized he is on tumblr.

In case anyone actually cares, wife came across this in her tumblr sphere.

Back in my day when we got spoilers for new native outfits we got excited and pumped for pimp new gear! We didn't have any of that PC bullshit.



Er, or as it should be called, 'Regalia', but whatever.

cocked oddly to the left

lol...do they seriously not get that the guy isn't facing directly to the camera?

edit: and...the war bonnet thread has been locked. and they deleted posts taking it down from 62+ pages to 34.

[Fiye]

I wonder how many got banned because of that thread lol.

Did OP get banned or did she delete her OF account? Her medals aren't showing up anymore.

nvm she got banned. Some of her posts got nuked. Probably 10 day or some shit.

Edit: Damn it got shrunk to 19 pages.

[Corrderio]

I miss the days when people only complained about armor being too revealing on females.

[Patriarch]

The Tonto thread truly delivered

[Alistaire]

So I had this chat with this one guy maybe a month or 2 ago, not sure if he's in an ls on one of my characters or if it was some shout thing, but this guy was really keen on making the lv 5 battered fish from an old event. It was a big deal for some reason we couldn't figure out, ending up with saying he might want to ask if someone was holding any "haddock" over from it since that's the only way he could still make this.

Then today I see this:

http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...-a-normal-shop.

and it's not for the challenge log either

I've already crafted it, I just wanna hold onto one.

He gets a reply from someone who has some, but they're on Shiva, to which he goes

If nobody on Sargatanas does I'll probably transfer a character over then back again. We'll see, I'm asking around.

wtf

[haroldsaxon]

Sounds fishy

[The Stig]

It's a little orcaward yes.

[Seravi Edalborez]

Probably just wants all the checkmarks ticked on the crafting log. Unless this is one of those categories that doesn't get checked off. In which case, *shrug*

e: Wow I can't read. Uh, maybe really obsessive event completionist. Gotta have that collector status for when you sell your account on ebay.

[The Stig]

It'll bait up a brill-iant deal though.

I'll leave now ...

People really do hold onto the "hope" of the PS3 being the thing holding this game back lol.

[Corrderio]

Unlike XI, it's not a console holding the game back, that's for sure.

Though I still question some of the "limitations" such as armor storage/inventory.
