Greetings! - Loathan - 01-12-2015
Greetings fellow adventurers!
I recently acquired a device known as "PS4" to facilitate my transit to Eorzea. On arrival I was elated by the refreshing sea breeze of Limsa Lominsa. But on closer inspection I became aware that some of my counterparts spoke in a strange tongue not known to me. Phrases such as 'LOL', 'OMG', 'STFU' and endless others. Words like 'spam', 'zerg', and 'nublet' continue to baffle me. And so I was directed here to find answers. My question is thus: is there a place associated with "PS4" where I can avoid this incomprehensible waffle? If so what say you of a name for this place? I eagerly await a response. Many thanks in advance!
May the light of the crystal guide thee!
Or as these strange folk seem to say:
LOL WTF GTFO

"...'stuffoo'? 'Lawl'? Th'bloody hell kinda language is that?"
Welcome! Your best bets for RP are at the Gilgamesh or Balmung servers. Unfortunately, breaking in a new character through the character creation restrictions can be challenging.
Unless, of course, you've got an already-made character and are looking to pay for a transfer...I believe that's less restricted.

Welcome! "May your path in the light of the crystal"Â be filled with many memories and experiences!
Mayhaps you'll find one of the other city-states, such as the desert gem of Ul'dath, that'll suit one with standards such as yourself (in Balmung that is)... Though I daresay that even with my recent arrival to Limsa Lominsa, I did not find such languages that you speak of.

Many thanks to you for your sound advice!
After a long and arduous struggle with the restrictions imposed by the gods of Square Enix I was able to make the journey to the realm of Gilgamesh. But alas it was not to be. My human host is based in Europe and so I began to suffer from that terrible affliction known as "latency". My thanks again for your replies. I wish you all the best in your many adventures!

Yeah I had heard that which is why I didn't specify the region I was in but I have levelled a few toons on a few servers to around the 15-20 mark and on a US server is the only time I have run into problems. Strange but true. It's a strange coincidence but obviously a coincidence is all it is. Unless there is some kind of system in place where they have some kind of signal boosters in the relevant regions? I am clueless when it comes to things like that so that's pure speculation.
