(Some bitter accusation that JP's were first to bot, cheat, whatever.)

While I agree that's probably all true, the facts (as stated by Tanaka) are that Japan gained users over the last year, while North America lost some users.

So, the numbers lost in U.S. was roughly inline with the number of banned users. So what?

Probably all it meant was that RMT's use the NA version, where ever those RMT's are. That's all. Heck, it's probably cheaper to buy the game here and e-mail the codes to to China or other places than to do the same from Japan.

(Bunch of complaints about how some jobs recieived more/better gears than others.)

Again, you're probably right in that, but it still doesn't have much to do with how many players are paying S-E.

In the meanwhile, I just try to tame my jealousy over things my BST friend can casually say: "Oh, I solo'ed the Sea Horror a few times while leveling fishing on the boat."

I've never had any problem canceling my account. Perhaps you're just doing it wrong?

I couldn't cancel it thru POL this time because i couldn't find where i put my new password. Thus why i actually made the call. Sat there forever and a day til it supposedly got canceled.

Or it could mean the China bots got weary that the S.T.F was targeting only NA accounts. So they are now hiding behind JPN accounts. Because they know how S.E treats its JPN clients. Just a little something to boggle your mind a little bit more.

Have your friend go solo a popular NM nowadays ( if they even exist) An let them watch as it gets stolen at 1%. An let me know how they feel. Then let it keep happening. An tell me if they have a fuzzy warm place in their heart for the wonderful caring S.E.

It's always someone else's fault, isn't it?

???, Naaa 1/2 of it is my fault. I had to move, i had to be lazy and not finish unpacking. I had to go an get sick an tired of FFXI.

Its not my fault my Bank had its security breached, and my previous account was closed. Its not my fault S.E didn't cancel the information over the phone with me.

So it's mostly always someone else's fault then?
