    Correction, I don't think English is Golandra's first language so s/he probably doesn't realize the negative connotation associated with that abbreviation.

    Here's how the world works. You either speak broken but forgivable English, or you get to make fun of other languages for being 'overly cryptic' and 'not putting spaces in between their words'

    You don't get to do both. I don't mistake being a fool for not knowing flawless English.

    I believe that would make it the world's first desynthable food/drink.

    Well, i can.

    I write jap or jap. or japanese, that doesnt matter in my eyes. Its a chat forum.
    I didnt write Jap with a capital.

    But you have already seen, ive set a point behind to prevent any racistic meanings.

    What do u know about the japanese langugage and how cryptic it is.
    It isnt very funny to hear some japanese scientist at symposiums. They have translated speech scripts, horror. They cant often understand their own japanese scientific papers. When i ask a japanese student to help me out with those e.g translate the summary of an paper --> he is more or less helpless, when there are specific words in the text he doesnt know e.g. chlorophyll or cell specific compounds and translation programms are clueless too. When i even dont know where a word begins and the other ends, you cant find the correct meaning. The japanese katagana and hiragana signs have advantages. You can compress a lot of text at one page and "fast reading" is possible.
    The downsite: Japanese students even forget their own signs after a time. New created words of the 19th- 21th centuary are not so easy to implement. Often they combined old signs to a new word like tree+house or something, now we need to go over the text to recognize the actual meaning of those combined words.
    Its my personal opinion, that they need spaces between signs, which explain one word. You don't speak without intonation and wordspaces , do you?
    Anyways. i don't make fun about any language or any culture. It's bad enough that jap without a point, let you think about nigger especially when its obviously an adjective.

    This was totally offtopic; back to wolfman and the rot-tea. Does anyone know a FFXI-database, which allows to search for words in the item description?

    I've been following this topic on the gorget for some time now, and haven't felt like I should chime in with any info... but when has anyone approached the idea of using this item in the synthesis?

    http://wiki.ffxiclopedia.org/images/...blinHotrok.jpg

    I haven't been able to obtain one, but I have tried to use my cooking skill level (88.5) to find a possible recipe for this synth. Any information I find, or come across in-game to help with this topic, I will be sure to report to here.

    Once again, nice to meet you all ^^

    U. Range map quest.
    I guess we should stop trying all juices and vegetables as well then, since they also have other uses in the game >.>

    your capitalization is totally inconsistent.

    When forming a new sentence, you capitalize the first letter, of the first word in that sentence. He wrote, "The downside: Japanese students even forget their own signs after a time."

    "The downside:" is not the beginning of the sentence, so he is correct to capitalize the word, "Japanese".

    It sounds like he might understand the language alittle more than you might, my friend...

    Different words can have different meanings, depending on how exactly they're written, or how they're phrased...

    So to say that his writting the word a certain way, does not matter at all, is really looked upon as ignorant.

    It's bad enough this thread is constantly bumped with the same useless crap that was posted in this thread and the one before it already but can we at least rise above a derailment on language techniques and political correctness?

    I don't believe this by any means, but it's worth posting, since we're all desperate. Anyone else heard of this craziness?


    Genmu, on Seraph server said~

    "Althou i dono if this is correct since i don't wana waste 3.5 mil on a divine log to make the sap on my server.

    I was told it pops from cursed beverage. - Amrita

    Ask Amrita who told him that it pops from a cursed beverage. Sounds akin to the vile elixir theory.

    i think its funnier that that NPC really does actually sell that abjuration than the fact that someone actually bought it.

    Future update, after the release of the next expansion after the next: That NPC will sell king abjurations, as well.

    Yup, and Ridill is going to be added to the Tunnel Worm's drop list at about the same rate as Flint Stones. Ridill will be like the new 2-Leaf Mandragora Bud, you keep one in your mog house just so you don't have keep throwing them away in PTs.
