Only to be met by "JP Only" "Sorry". That shit enraged me. Having completed S-rank 5 times and having all of the short cuts and puzzles memorized I knew that I was better then most Japaneese players. They were sterotyping me because I was an english player that I automatically sucked. It got to the point where I would not quit their games and just sit there. When they left and made a new one I would joint that one too.
I knew then and now that my actions were immature at best. I just got so sick of people being dicks with no way to retaliate.
Sadly the attitude of a few left such a sour taste in my mouth that I would avoid helping/playing with japanese gamers whenever possible in every game I played after that.

Jesus christ, you're a twat. Maybe if you spared a second or two to think, instead of being so ridiculously thin-skinned and bawling, 'waaaaaaugh! Why are they so racist?!' you might've realized that the most likely explanation was instead, 'We prefer that people who join this game speak the same language as us, so that all participants can actually communicate with each other.'
It can be pretty irritating in any game that requires communicating with other players to have anything you say greeted with '????' emoticons, or another language you don't understand. And in a game with a staggered release, where when the foreign edition comes out and established servers are flooded with nonspeakers...

You sir, are full of... win?
It has nothing to do with being "thin-skinned" and more to do with being asked to leave 4 out of 5 times because I wasn't Japanese. I can only tolerate xenophobic douche-baggery for so long. After my experiences with PSO and later (to a lesser extent) FFXI, I prefer my servers US\EU only. The funny part is I have only experienced this attitude with the Japanese players. I have played many times with non english speakers from Europe, HK, and Taiwan and there has never been a problem. ever. |
