Before I go into what this thread will be about, I want to just explain how long I've been here and things of that sort so I'm not written off as a 'troll'.
I've been lurking these forums since about the end of phase one, maybe phase 2 of the FFXIV beta; now, I know I haven't been here long compared to others and that isn't what I'm trying to say.
I've seen this community, as a whole, do wonderful things with wonderful ideas and great people. Now, sadly, I have also seen some parts of this community act in ways I'd never expect of a small, somewhat close-knit community like this.
Please, do not think I am typing this with ANY ill intent, I'm not. I love this community, or what it was a few days ago. I feel like the 'server vote', which I supported; which of the two I'll be rolling on is irrelevant for this though, is when things really started going a bit haywire.Â
What happened to the constant friendliness that everyone had? Why are we at each-other's throats on half of the new threads I've lurked through? Are we not all here for the SAME reason? We're all Rpers and we're a small enough community as is, especially on FFXIV, so regardless of whether you're playing on Gilgamesh or Balmung, remember something, we're all Rpers and we REALLY need to work together, not against each-other.
