Simple ... Ifrit is Lazy. :P

NAs, JPs, HKs, Euros are all lazy on Ifrit.

Blame yarr

Yeah but the fact that "people are lazy" would only plague Ifrit seems a little crazy.

Would that make it a leadership problem then or did somehow Ifrit break all satistical odds and get the most apathetic people to play 100+ days worth of playtime to reach end game? lol

Ifrit is the TNT of the servers. Drama.

Yeah other servers have drama but I think Ifrit just clings to it for like ever.

Dunno Cad but if you plan to play the next FF MMO it would be wise to avoid the Ifrit Server there.

Ulgokiem sounds like the name of an anal STD. Why anyone even listens to that douche bag is beyond me.

i love how half of this thread is about racism in america and the other half is pictures of kittens

I'm pretty sure hobbes/aesk's real name is james but I could be wrong and unfortunately no my real name isn't james it's dirk. The BAD PPL thing is a joke actually, I picked it up from one of my lsmates who (I believe) started saying it to tease another of our lsmates who is a jp player and speaks horrible broken engrish.

Caduceus, you are correct, the whole server is blinded by close-mindedness (stereo-typing against linkshells, friends, egos, personalities, jps, chinese, gear, duration of playing, etc., etc.,) and I'm sorry to carry on the tradition. However, I fought for a long time against some of these prejudices: I wanted to see NAs band together to overcome kfc/vc/so/rmt/sa, I wanted people to be judged individually for their performance and benefits to an ls, I wanted to see more courtesy, respect, and consideration for everyone else who pays their 13 bucks+ to play every month...

but what did I learn?

People judge you all the time: from what ls you're wearing, to who you waved to in lower jeuno, to what you say on a messageboard. I experienced alot of this type of prejudice for a long time, I believed that a great deal of it was perpetuated by ckd who turned down tons of honest and humble players and who were looking for acceptance and to be part of something great and got "sorry you're a noob" in return. Thus breeding more elitism and prejiduce as these players struggled to prove themselves and be better than the everyone else. And I'll admit, I fell into this trap for a long time, you can even find pangs of it lingering in my posts if you care to deconstruct them.

I'd venture that it doesn't feel so great to be on the opposite end of that does it? To go from being the people who laugh at applicants because they're not 75 yet or don't have any endgame experience, to having your accomplishments be defamed by those same players because they now see you as a cheat. There is some sort of justice in that, but as long as the leaders in Atariii "don't give a fuck" and as long as their are still a large population who is mostly driven by gear or e-penis/status, you'll still be the "greatest" ls on the server and the rest of us will be overshadowed by all your accomplishments and wondering why the ifrit server has been set back a thousand years.

It would've been nice for alot of us to have tried to build a strong na community and lses that worked together, but instead we fell into these petty traps over claims, gear, and lsmembers/lses. I'm product of the community and those I looked up to.

YOU DAD! ALRIGHT! I LEARNED IT BY WATCHING YOU!

Hmm your post puts CKD/Atariii as the reason for the set back we have on Ifirt. Thats complete bullshit.

There were other HNM ls back then. With FS and Sentinels (Hokuten kind off >.>), CKD wasnt the only LS doing end game shit. CKD just happend to be the first set of NAs to get sky, kill gods, camp land kings, get sea and all that other crap. Just cause they had drive to compete with the Japanese and HK player base. With IW and KFC owning camps that set back the NA player base as well.

In regards to the not accepting more players into ckd, I dont think they wanted to be like what TTK is now. I'd rather be in a small shell than in one that is filled with the maximum amount a linkshell can hold. :p
