I think OP was more concerned with the ignorance of lore rather than emoting tail swishing lol..though everyone seems to he fixated on the latter to invalidate OPs argument.
Let's take a gander at the wiki so I can, as a new player, understand miqote.Â
1. Miqote have a lesser presence than other races. (Reality, miqote are the majority on Balmung. Â At least based on a pie chart I found. Â It's not reasonable to force people not to play a race because there's already a lot on the server,but it's food for thought.)
2. Shyness / solitary lifestyles. (Reality, it almost seems like miqote are the most outgoing race I've seen so far in RP. Â Should EVERY miqote be brooding and live like a lone wolf? No, but as an RPer, you should at least present a reason why your character deviates from a racial norm.)
3. Seeker devotion to Ayzema. (Reality, I have not witnessed enough RP with miqote to know of their culture reflects their religion but I think it absolutely should. FFXIV is not really a world of atheists lol..)
4. Keeper devotion to Menphina. Conflict with Gridania forest folk. (Reality,same answer as #3.)
5. RP of day/night cycles. (The game has an in-engine clock with passing time. Are you a bad RPer if you ignore it? Probably not, but I think it could improve immersion no matter what race you're playing.)
Tl;Dr this is just my perspective. Sorry for any weird typos I'm at work and I did this on my phone xD.Â
