Idk maybe it's who I follow but I see pepe memes from def not alt-right people, I do think it's turned a corner. At any rate, did you say new dev lore insight?? https://twitter.com/FF_XIV_EN/status/1643267243319644160?t=oP775avmmwEtKVN8QZ8Vpw&s=19

I think I saw a frog emote 😨 When I was in San Francisco in about 2017 a German imports store around I think it was Noe Valley displayed a porcelain frog for sale in its window. Like a day later there was a sign next to it stating the "we the owners were unaware it was a hate group symbol and meant no offense by placing it in the window" or along those lines. Even in 2017 when I did figure a pepe was a warning sign I remember that being hilariously oversensitive on the part of whoever "informed" the store.

a server with a billion pepe emotes can be one full of lovely people or it could be one full of people who somehow managed to miss that it was a sign of that for long enough for it to have fallen out of its peak popularity. I wouldn't assume a server is poo poo for having those emotes but I'd certainly expect a good chunk of dumbass gamers to be on the server somewhere because of it

It's good not to cede things to reactionary shitheads. Cowering in fear before the concept of drinking milk or pepe the funny frog just gives them what they want. If some bigot is using a pepe you'll know they're a bigot because the days of toeing the line are over, they'll just outright state their intentions openly.

Limited/Exclusive items is bad in every instance, ever. I have no problem with you getting a special mount/minion/title/glam for buying an artbook or doing PVP or whatever, but after a year, it should be available to everyone, even if it's bought via Mogstation. Same for exclusive pre-order stuff. And if it's for pre-ordering an expansion, make it exclusive until the next expansion.

I think it's very unlikely that the seasonal pvp rewards will be permanently unavailable. They DID outright say at one point they'd make them buyable with trophy crystals at some point, people just assumed it would be sooner than it has been

I'm not sure "a mundane part of everyday life that bigots decided to use as a dumb symbol" and "using something mainly known as a dumb bigot symbol because you think it's okay now" are the same thing there. I won't blame anyone for being ignorant (lord knows I've had plenty) but once you know, when the alternative is just using a different meme? It's really easy not to do.

Any glam fiends who can confirm something for me? I've made a few glasses-wearing glams, but had a problem with putting them in portraits, as the perfect angle for the shot always had a giant glare over one of the lenses, but that's not there anymore. Did they stealth fix it or did I just accidentally find a new, better angle?

They DID outright say at one point they'd make them buyable with trophy crystals at some point, people just assumed it would be sooner than it has been They did not. This was from a reddit translation of a liveletter that had other things said in it that did not pan out either. Another example of this was them translating something yoshi p said along the lines of "we're going to be taking a look and adjusting the levels at which certain jobs get their skills" and then this turned out to be them moving 1 single ability (can't remember if it was drk or drg). Edit: Went and dug up the 70 liveletter digest and what that says about the rewards is, "We went over “series” periods and obtainable rewards. Series EXP can be earned by participating in PvP content, regardless of whether you win or lose. Rewards can be obtained upon reaching new Series Levels. With each Series, your Series Level will be reset and the reward lineup will be changed, but you’ll be able to obtain rewards from one Series prior." Meanwhile, on the reddit discord, "Y "If you didn't make it in time, you can still use these crystals to obtain the rewards for the previous series, they will stay for one additional patch but will be gone after that" While in reality, what this actually means is say you hit series level 25 and then have a stroke before you can claim your rewards. While you are in the hospital, the series switches over. When you recover and get back home, you can still go to the previous series' tab and claim the rewards that you have already earned but failed to claim in time. You cannot make any further progression on this track. Failboattootoot fucked around with this message at 19:29 on Apr 4, 2023 |

If you let the fash have symbols sooner or later the fash will have every symbol, because they are never going to loving stop with their antics. If you give them an inch they will take the whole mile and still call you a beta cuck groomer at the end of it. I'm glad pepe is being reclaimed.

Which is to say it's my preferred tomestone capper so I was doing it to cap tomestones when I needed them which was a few times a week for about 11 weeks whenever an even numbered patch dropped.

oh yeah the next, like, week is gonna be a banger for pvp exp if you wanna jump in to CC ranked. at least while bronze and silver are still populated you get a lot of matches in with queues popping instantly between them. if you majorly mess up no one's gonna remember your name or face just jump in and have a good time.
