Importers still using the JP client and software... why?

[Apoc]

RE:

1) JP PS2 is sooooo much better than PC. I hate keyboards -.-

2) Much easier for getting parties and ability to hide being eng.

3) I would rather play with my other importer friends, jps, and good engs rather than getting a majority of bad NA pts.

4) I can also form Half and half PTs (Good ENG players and Jp player PTs) Bilingual chat is much better than the crappy tab menu anyway.

- I do use the eng client for some quests though :sweat:

[Reihn]

Simple

I bought the game Import and I will continue to play it Import. I wasn't impressed with the localization, either. For me it has a charm to keep playing it this way.

Also, I agree with the other reasons stated above for staying with it. Language input etc.

Off topic: If someone continually bothers me when I am in Jeuno with a Christmas color tell, I often tell them that I don't help strangers, sorry. and If they persist or become belligerent I say:

Sorry, but /blacklist?¨ You

Then blacklist them. Often, I also put up a comment that says I dont help strangers. This usually keeps them quiet. But on Ramuh apparently the US client using players will often use /sea all 75 then bother every level 75 on the list with their tells. I don't like to go /anon, but I shouldn't have to be subject to this kind of abuse (many of these people feel level 75 can solo anything and ask for rediculous stuff that will probably get me killed, I die enough helping my real life friends in my LS to get their stuff done....).

>I have been in one American lvl down PT. It was not fun. They didnt understand the ettiquitte. The Party sucked. Everything my NA friends told me about how NA PTs suck came shockingly true. I was appalled.

Now because one party sucked, they all do? I've been in crappy JP parties. Using your logic I can say all JP parties suck.


It's kinda low to respond to people with "Eigo Wakarimasen" when you dont wanna help people. I never had problems with /t person Sorry I'm busy. Im not high enough to help people with summons, AF or etc yet, but I still get random dragoon dragon/teleport/[insert quest/mission here] tells. But just say you're busy is direct and to the point. If they continue to harass you, thats why there is a '/blist add' feature.

The only reason here that isnt racist (JP pt r cool) or selfish (pretending to be JP) is being a moderator in NA/JP parties. >.>;

You missed part of what I was saying. When I was in the NA PT, I found that everything I had been told by my friends <NA/Importer/Hong Kong players> was exactly true. I was saying that I had received confirmation of what I had been told.


NA players jump in and out of PTs within 30 minutes of joining, always AFK, not all of them care to make a renkei, I get /tells saying he let me in ur PT. <ugh>

I'm curious to find out where you were leveling at the time. You honestly cant expect much better out of the newer players in Valkrum, Qufim, and even Kazham to an extent. At level 30+, all those things are not too common. I wont lie and say every NA party is perfect and nobody ever goes AFK, or gets disconnected, and we are all very nice and have excellent matters, cause that's BS. But usually uncooperative people like that either figure things out or quit by the time get get to 30ish+. And if someone doesn't want to do a skillchain, you kick them out and find someone else. Sometimes I find people who don't know the true power of a skillchain and either I try to get em to do it or get someone who can.


Its stupid blaming the entire NA population because of one bad party. The servers are filled with NAs, and if you don't want to party with them because a few suck, and 'jp r cool', then you're just being elitist and selfish.

This game is survival of the fittest. If you have really bad party habits, then people wont want to party with you and it will take alot longer to get ahead. If people keep doing what you say past 30s, 40s, 50s etc, then they wont get much further than where they are now.

I like to PT with NAs, its nice to be able to talk in your PT. But at my level, there are almost no NAs at all.

kaomoji? but isn't that regular kanji meaning convex?

speaking of ascii art, one my japanese friends showed me a 2ch post with ascii art a while ago. freakin sick. you were like "hey look there's oosaka from azumanga daioh" and you could tell right away.

4 bad JP PTs and counting =O

from now on everyone sucks!

[exile2k3]

Look, EN pts are generally worse than JP ones. Why? Most of them are just thrown together. You cant have 5 melee and one mage for a decent PT, it just doesnt work. Japanese ones(most of them) are planned out, job types are invited according to possible renkeis and such. I dont say JP PTs all pwn j00. Because they dont. Just today I got an invite from a JP who said he had a BST, PLD, RDM, WHM, BRD in his PT, and needed me. I didn't bother /sea all <r>. The guy outright lied. it was a BST/BRD, and he was a DRK/WHM. So this setup ended up being, BST/BRD DRK/WAR PLD/WAR RDM/WHM WHM/BLM, DRK/WHM. We got like 2.7k in an hour, when you need 32000exp to level, that sucks.

I have gotten one 6k an hour PT, It sure as hell wasnt NA. I'm no self-hating American who puts the Japanese on some pedastal. It's from my experience that I base this opinion. To all NA who say I'm generalizing and such....

FUCK YOU
