      Not really. I just get annoyed when people complain about things that are either within their control to do something about... or unavoidable repercussions of human nature.

      If SE nerfs your job.... sure... freak out and bitch, you have just cause. You don't like the way JP players treat you? How people stole your claim? How the job you picked isn't universally acceptable? Nut up. It's a game. A game I played for 6 years before playing as a main that wasn't SMN.

        I agree with you that you need to be realistic and recognize that sometimes the job you like just isn't practical, but at the same time I don't think it's unreasonable to be mad at the devs for not balancing the jobs. I just think you don't get to bitch about it after like...1 year. By then you should either change jobs or grit your teeth and accept it.

        It's like, hey dude, I know Pichu is a shitty character but you're the one that insists on using him. Don't blame me for winning.

                No really, I genuinely didn't expect that reply which is why I found it amusing.

                I exaggerated Pre-Abyssea FFXI's flaws for comic effect. Yyg exaggerated my entire post for comic effect, or at least I'm hoping it was (Poe's law - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)

                  Build your own parties and all that other shit is either still a problem or inherent to human nature.

                      I think Fire and Poe are related as much as he is such a big proponent for his law.

                        Shitty characters are the best characters to win with, though!

                          It's true. Nothing is quite as sweet as that victory that comes from defeating your opponent using Dan Hibiki.

                            A little from column A and a little from column B. Your penchant for complaining makes it tough for me to believe that your OP was purely for comic relief... or even exaggerated. I seem to recall many of those same bulletins being listed in several of your "I just unsubbed again and here's why" posts.

                              Reminds me of getting melee kills as a Sith Sorceror or kills with Dirty Kick as a Smuggler in SWTOR's PvP. Those tend to be the best kills.

                              B-b-b-but it's an MMO forum! If you aren't complaining you're doing it wrong!

                                Tumult kills are the best. Berserk Sorcerer runs in and roundhouses a droid into the dirt. It's the best.
