I didn't ask for babying, I'm clearly stating plausibility of my Character coming from FFXI and how it's not so far fetched as everyone makes it seem.

...When? When did you state how it would be plausible? I would sincerely like to read this.

I want a good reason as to why a back story like this isn't Plausible. Which none of they Nay Sayers have been able to achieve. I'm not looking to be special, or be the time travelling world hopping hero. Understand that his displacement where a sheer acident and he's just a displaced man trying to figure out where, when and how of it all. To see if there's any possibility of getting home.

Where is the plausibility in getting there in the first place? We'll get to why it's not really super grand in a second. I want to be sure to be as clear as possible.

In fact it merely strength's my resolve that this is a plausible and interesting storyline. There are very striking similarities between both games that would allow for this to be possible and not overtly out of place. So again why wouldn't this back story work?

This is a ridiculous stance to take. "You told me it's not a good idea, so it must be!" That's not...even anywhere close to a reasonable thing to do with any kind of conversation. Particularly not one that you initiated. People are conversing. This is what you asked for. Now. Here's some more of what you asked for:

Crossing dimensions for a single individual without meaning to has been shown, beyond a shadow of a doubt, to not be a thing that happens in Eorzea. The only person who's come on over on their own is Shantotto. This happened directly in the wake of Bahamut showing up, and the world being re-made as a whole. She managed to hop over for a little bit, and then was sent packing. It was a big, huge deal. So big and huge that it'd be pretty much impossible, with the world on high-alert, and your guy as clueless as they are to the workings of Eorzea, for a hitchiker to slip on by.

We did not like Shantotto wrecking our stuff. We were looking for others like her, because wow, let's not have that happen again.

The other crossover event was a more massive kind of tear. All sorts of machines and stuff came over with Lightning. There was an effort to get rid of those. And then they were gotten rid of.

So. On the plausibility bit, we have the following:

1. Your guy would have to be as powerful as Shantotto to do this on purpose. Good chance they're totally not, given that she's a pretty important character, and the world he was from would notice if he were anything approaching Shantotto. It didn't. We know this full and well.

2. If your guy was a hitchiker, he'd have been part of an immediate, violent purging in the wake of Shantotto.

3. If he came over by accident, it wouldn't just be him, and again, everyone would know about another world-rip thing happening, because the last time, it meant a bunch of scary robots.

4. We wind up back at the violent, immediate purge.

So. Aside from it being in what I consider to be poor taste, and aside from it being what I consider to be unimaginative and goofy, that's what I got.

Why do you think this is plausible and reasonable? Again. Sincere question. I really do want to know.
