Assuming anyone remembers...Follow

We already know it's happening when it's not supposed to. Since it's an issue that nearly everyone has come across it's pretty well documented when it occurs, but what the players are doing when the receive the error varies. Sometimes you got it immediately on login, sometimes you got it changing zones and sometimes you got it while having a staring contest with a delivery moogle.

My point is that it's difficult to convince people that you've corrected an issue when it's clearly still an issue. The fact that they have said repeatedly that it's been resolved and still hasn't means they probably aren't even aware of exactly why it's happening.

I think the best thing about real early access (no gag orders or blocked content) is it lessens the impact of hackers or whoever wants to hurt the game at launch. 90002 hit my server hard a week ago, few people complained because we got back on fast. It felt like a warm up for launch day.

It wasn't ISP issues. 90k line of errors are indeed termination of your connection. The only time we've had issues ISP specific were when verizon was basically rejecting XIV connections and Level3.net not being able to handle the traffic early on in 2.0s life.

Funnily enough, most XIV issues are simply design choices yoshi/SE made for it - Change your PC's region or clock settings and watch yourself get kicked from the game immediately. No other game does that (not even XI from what I seen), so the client is far more erroneous than your connection will be. So as much as people love to not being the factor in something going wrong (which is why some feel SE is perfect) there's far more hardware related issues PC wise than there are with the connection to the game. My brother's fiancee couldn't dodge any AoEs despite being out of it..so he got her a new Mobo and 8 core processor..all her problems went away, including continual disconnects until recently.

Which is why when it IS connection related, it's usually because of them not being ready for the flood of people trying to rush on.

It's just thick lines on the thread screen for me saying "User Ignored." I'm loathe to click them. It's complaints, complaints phrased as things not like complaints in order to bait complaints, or justifications of said complaints, complaints about people complaining about him complaining (full on complaintception) oh, and arguments.

If there was a day in which Duo was genuinely positive, it was likely sucked into the black hole of negativity (Also known as the Vortext of 'Whaaa!') he generates so that it no longer exists in memory.

If we really want to talk about something, how about we speculate on how long it's going to take with these new moves from monk and Dragoon before someone makes a fan video of DBZ references with all the Ki blast moves.

Oh, here's one if a Lalafell Monk gets knocked off a Titan fight, does it count as a Krillin pwn?

Ok lets not start saying things about me that actually make sense and show youre clearly the most adult/mature person on the forums while everyone else is still stuck in High School (either physically or mentally.. Ill go with the later... since Im sure 90% of this boards population is not only over 18 but over 21 as well). We wouldn't want you to get rated down for going against The Ashley's and actually telling the truth.

But anyway back on topic.. can saomeone link to where it was said that when HW comes out old dungeons will have level caps removed and you can go in with incomplete parties? because that sounds too good to be true (imagine soloing zodiac weapon farming without having to wait for DF queues)

I hate complaints. I hate them so much that I will complain about the complaints so that I might drown out the other complaints with my own complaints. I think maybe Xzhibit is supposed to fix my car. I think that's how this works...

As could...not continually attacking people, thus causing far less need for someone to defend themselves and overall, far less need for "better tools" dealing with the outcome caused by going into someone's thread to attack them.



As I stated in another thread, even when he's not making a thread to complain, people (usually the ones attacking him) twist it into such (like stating he has an ulterior motive with his topic or response) and use it as ammo to bash him. The main problem is, there's not that much activity on these forums anymore, so the active ones are realistically the same group of people compared to the OF or Reddit - and not surprisingly..RD at least tend to have far less "hey..let's attack that person because why not!" as the only time I ever seen that was a DPS thread trying to tell people to work around their poor tanking so they don't have to improve themselves. Not because they posted something asking about the server stability that plagued 2.0 (legitimate concern) and if it'll happen, AFTER a 24 hour maintenance and HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of people split into a handful of clusters are hammering the lobby server if it'll happen again. This is the only forum where someone can be attacked for worrying about that simply because they have an issue with the person and not what they wrote. If some new user wrote the exact same topic, they'd be a Guru or Sage instantly and even praised for asking a "good question" or a positive response..




Maybe it's just me but: If I'm intolerant of someone, I don't go into their topic, just to bash them. I can easily not bash or harass someone unless I'm feeling particularly aggressive that day. Normally, you avoid or don't bother people you're intolerant of, you don't harass them or that actually reflects more poorly on the one doing the harassment rather than the one who is honestly not even attacking or bothering someone. Despite the whole: "If you hate/upset/dislike blah blah the game just leave" mentality...practice what gets preached - if someone dislikes a person so much to the point they can't help themselves but to bash on them, stay out of the topic or ignore the user. And by Ignore I mean don't even hit that quote check box and reply to them, just don't even click the topic. It would be better if they can disappear, sure..but since that's not the case...use your human skills, which normally would include reasoning.

Nah, he probably put me on ignore after stating it's his mission to harass negative people. Like I said, even when you have a complaint, it's not "veiled", as in "hidden", when you make a statement about something you're literally talking about that, not secretly talking about anything else or goading people as he stated. The trolls who got banned were blatant about it and blatantly provoked people, but funnily enough, they didn't get nearly as attacked as people who don't actually troll.

Some people are positive, some are negative, then you have people like Hyrist who thrive on harassing people on an internet forum. He does it on the official forums too and ironically, he's agreed with me quite a few times there as the only time I post on those forums is with my main account and have only a handful of posts outside of the Japanese forums, so it just further proves it doesn't matter what you write, it's who writes it honestly. It's quite petty when you get down to it, but hey people grow up eventually.

I can live with people calling each other trolls or white knights... this is an Internet forum, and those are common terms that come with the territory.

But no more silly name calling. That means no implying that everyone else is being childish, or saying that everyone else is acting like a bunch of "Ashley's," which is both a sexist and homophobic thing to say in the year 2015.

Clean it up.

Well like they say if the show fits wear it. I cant think of a single adult who acts their age and not their shoe size, who'll go into a thread of someone they dont like just to say "shut up Duo" or insult or be lilttle them, an adult would either just flat out ignore them because the dont wanna "stoop to their level" or "be the bigger man and walk away" or tell them off in a way that quite distinguished and far worse (yet effective) then resulting to name calling, thats stuff that happens on an elementary school playground or in high school... you dont run into much of that an an actual adult environment (unless people have had too much to drink). Id know... unfortunately I have a few high school aged ppl at work and thats the kinda crap I have to deal with with them too, difference between them and you guys is. I can slap the **** out of them, I cant do that to you guys.

They just like you may not like me but they quickly learn to stay away from me, leave me alone/ignore me/act like I don't exist REAL fast. Also do you know who the Ashley's are? I can probably understand how that MIGHT be sexist but how is it homophobic? By Ashley's Im talking about ppl in a clique/clique mentality, like the Mean Girls, where everyone whos not in their clique/part of the "cool kids" crowd gets treated like **** regardless to what they do or say, positive or negative, whereas the ones IN the cool kids club can do or say whatever they want and no one cares or does anything about it. Just like here, where someone can come into my thread just to say "Shut up Duo" and doesnt even get rated down or in some cases might get rated up, whereas I can just ask a simple question and get defaulted for it. For no other reason other than because of who I am. On what civilized planet do those actions sound alright? Sounds rather cliquish to me.. hence the Ashley's comment, so againt tell me how that sounds sexist or homophobic? Never seen Recess?
