I hope all the available JP and EU GM's are available. I fully expect the Tablets to be scooped up on most servers before dawn PDT.<br /><br />-- End Side Comment --<br /><br />I don't "back Kimiko up" on anything but the post. Kimiko is one of the few people I can have a sane talk with about this.<br /><br />But Kimiko is a cheater -- yes. Windower needs to be banned, for the good of those players who still play on the PS2 and XLax CrashBox 360.<br /><br />But so are so many people that, as Hohenheim proposed in our talk several days ago (to which I point you back to the blog post talking about it), I believe you are trying to justify the cheating as an "everybody does it, so you can't enforce the rules, or (as a player) demand their enforcement" motif.<br /><br />It is situations like which you propose that I do this.<br /><br />The only "flaw" in my stand, in that regard, is that we may well be beyond the point where the horse is out of the barn.<br /><br />At that point, stop pimping out the dead whore, Square-Enix, and kill the lame horse which is FFXI.Starcadehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09226367306835781483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3974394344589944161.post-18834809497458541412009-05-11T20:13:00.000-07:002009-05-11T20:13:00.000-07:00Wait so you said Kimiko is your friend and even su...Wait so you said Kimiko is your friend and even support her. Yet, you hate cheaters who abuse game mechanics and use the 3rd party windower and its tool like plugins.<br /><br />Isn't that the recast plugin on Kimiko's blogs video section?<br />Timestamp?<br />Tparty?<br /><br />You are extremely conflicted on your moral standings in my opinion, it makes you not as creditable person now. Is you blogs integrity compromised?<br /><br />If they are your friends its all right to back them up. This part I agree.<br /><br />But you seem to have based your entire blog(at least the FFXI portion and friends associated with it) on this corruption that is occuring in the player base.<br /><br />I'm all for standing by my friends. But I'm not going to keep quiet if they say, killed someone. I'll more then helpfully talk them through it and support them well they are in jail until/If they get out.<br /><br />But you seem to make like anything happens, anything at all, you'd sweep it under the rug and forget about it. Or rather, ignore it as if it never happened.<br /><br />---<br /><br />In this world, people lie, or cheat, or abuse; call it what you want. The imperfect soul is what makes every human being beautiful.<br /><br />To be Perfect is to be a walking Sin.<br /><br />I am not a perfect being, I can point out my flaws, mostly geared towards conflicting issues I cause(socially) with my intense and nearly impossible urge to be a know it all; dissect everything. Love of taking it apart and wanting to rebuild it better then what others think. I accept it.<br /><br />Can you Accept that your standings in these matters could be considered, flawed?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
