You know what that says to me? That she sees us a server she can't fit in to. That we're full, that we don't want to pick her up and welcome her in.
WTF have we been saying? The -exact opposite- of that. We want to pick her up. All the RPers. Everywhere. We want to pick them all up, and welcome them in.
Uhm, I'm a guy bro. Notice the male Elezen avatar.Â

Resent, Noun:Â Bitter indignation at having been treated unfairly.
Indignation, Noun:Â Anger or annoyance provoked by what is perceived as unfair treatment.
Both of these kinda sound pretty spot on. Resentment is an ugly word, I know, but it doesn't make it any less accurate for this argument.
You completely miss the point. The "bus mowing you down" is a metaphor for the chance that a legacy realm could completely screw you over. It might not, but the chance that it CAN is definitely there. Anyone who says otherwise is a fool. Granted, both options have risks associated. But while both present potentially toxic communities; only one exhibits a danger of broken game mechanics. Given that evidence? I'm going to take my chances with Gilgamesh.
As for "Resent". Your own definition proves my point. "Bitter". Nobody is bitter sir. Well, at least I'm not. It's just a smart move in my eyes.
