This is total crap.. in no way would that comment have landed you in prison, I suspect you did something more than that. Past few parties I've been in have been JP, and I've told them from the start that I don't know how to speak or read any japanese and that's never been an issue with me getting JP parties. I can see why if there was any resentment towards NA's from JP's, I have never seen an arrogant JP player and I've partied with a hell of alot of them, yet NA (being english, not just NA's) players, I see them all the time, people ********* begging, bragging, being stupid, bullying, stealing, yelling... you name it they've done it... and the times that I've been in a NA party and we've invited a JP, a few times after a while there's all these slurs cast after a while. No wonder there might be a form of hate from JP towards NA... you're acting like jerks and 10yo's (go back to WoW). Seriously, there's a heap of good NA's and it's probably the minority of people that are ruining the game for us because it's not that JP's hate NA's they just don't want to run into another ****** NA. I know that I'd pick a JP over an NA anyday.
I'd love for Maotut to talk to him and find out what happened then answer one question. Did he get imprisoned for the right reasons? Yes/No ... I'm placing bets on the answer being Yes.

Only some japanese playersare racist, the rest are jsut playing the odds. They're just playing the odds, JP players have had more time to make gil to buy better equipment. I have been invited to JP parties before, and even been commended by them. About half the JP players who say they only wan't JP parties in tehir search comments simply don't want to deal with the language barrier, the rest though do have a low opinion of NA players.
I was in quifim today, 2/3 the parties were JP, and all of them said JP only. YEs their is a double standard. And Caude, pomposity has no reason to rate you down, and I bet he's even going to rate me down for saying this.

Heh, I just bought the PS2 version of FFXI to go along with my PC copy.
FFXI needs to add just one thing to the auto-translator:
The term "Asshat".

just an interesting thought, what if you call a GM with "GM = no thanks" in yoru search comment.... haha, probabaly will be jailed for life.
Hmm this is more a comment toward the J-Players who invite you then kick you. I don't think the actual person who invited you mined, but someone else in the party may have in turn msged him via /tell and stated it would be hard to party with an English only party member.
I've never gotten into any J-parties, however...being a whm I've went outta my way to run around early morning hours and raise people who msg me in pure Japanese for raises.
You can find that a small act of kindness toward one J-Player can later get you into a J-Party..

"I'm not one-sided, I'm fair, at least in my eyes."
What a completely asinine statement. With that kind of attitude methinks you have a wonderful career ahead of you as a 3rd World dictator, or KKK propagandist. Good luck to you sir!
Also, can some of you regulars please not make a comment in every post about how your karma has gone up or down? Nobody cares, and it decreases the lifspan of my rods and cones just having to read it. Thanks.

Come to think of it,considering how much everyone hates americans these days
Now do you hate americans as a whole? or just our corrupt government that seems to lie to its people? really, not all americans are bad. i have alot of EU friends and they always say that i should of been a brit. really i dont see why the world reflects our government's actions upon our people. But everyone hates americans.. If you think about what you just said... its considered prejudice. I guess your not too far from hitler are you? :P oh well... i admit our government makes its people look bad but our government is based on greed alone.
Honestly.. the general population doesnt have the stereotypical mindset that alot of the world believes we have. (We are the world's miltary might. mess with the u.s. and we'll bomb you) LMAO.. most of us would rather just live life.
Gweenz - um who are you talking to?
Anyway ... the prison thing just blows my mind. Most GM's usually just turn and give you lectures about stuff ;_;
I never bother to report to GM's anymore cause the stuff thats worth noteing gets me nothing but a lecture.

I was looking for a melee to fill the 6th spot in our party one night (around level 50) and i came across a WAR/NIN lfg in Jeuno, with a search comment that read [I Don't Speak any English} and the next line read [Airship] > World Trade Center > OK
I was pretty damn pissed. If you got sent to Jail for something that was so vague, i hope this ******* got his account erased forever.

pomposity the Mundane,
If there is a troll full of BS in this thread it, it is you. I've been in parties where I was the only NA player and yes it was great, I've also been in parties where we were all NA players and they were just as great.
I don't assume every JP player is a god of the game nor do I assume every NA player is a 12 year old with A.D.D. and a vocabulary dominated by 4 letter words. I judge everyone as an individual.
You seem to be the worst type of NA player the kind that hates other NA players. I am sick of the whole "they were here first' BS, we are here now! that gives us the same rights and claims to this game as them.

If this happened, it's a very bad reason and a double standard.
I'd give this story a 75% chance of being a throwaway troll account, it only has 9 posts total. WHY would you go on party seek, and go AFK for an hour!?!? That's very rude, I can't imagine anyone doing that.

I heard there are a lot of JP in Japan.

Read: I called a Japanese GM, and he said he couldn't do anything about it. So don't go spreading the rumors that JP GMs are so damn high and might and all-powerful. Just like NA GMs, they have a limited scope of authority.

I saw this in a JPs search comment recently:
{English} = {Orc} {language}
{English} = {Orc} {language}
The question of how japanese gets translated is a good one. I'm gonna ask some people I know who're bilingual and see if I can figure it out.
how about this then, we the NA players just start reporting any player that places JP only in search comments or the bazazar and see how long it takes before something getts done.
Well, I'm glad that this thread has moved completely away from it's original intent and become some sort of battleground over what people think of my view on the subject, without even remembering that THERE IS STILL NO PROOF THIS EVER HAPPENED.
NONE.
And to everyone that seems to have trouble understanding what I'm saying, email me. I'll give you a very, very detailed explanation of what I'm saying. Or, you can re-read my post and try to understand that. However, if you're just interested in making me out to be some kind of self-hating NA player, then please, STFU.
I think that the fact the original poster hasn't come back and told us what server or GM was involved still proves that the entire thing is a flaming load of troll manure.
NONE.

If the same person keeps doing it, they'll probably get suspended for too many pointless reports.
I wouldn't be surprised to see that happen, actually.
Square Enix Employees-> Racist.
Bottom Line: Japanese/Asian Players pay more towards the overall per month fee total income of the company so they favor that race seeing as it determines their pay check.

I personally have never seen evidence to imply that the employees of Square-Enix are in any way racist. If they were, in fact, racist, I somehow doubt they'd bother releasing games in America at all.
