This sorta thing is precisely why eula's and contracts have liability clauses about "acts of god" and their results.

It's funny how the AF storage set NPC says your items are protected under equal circumstances too lol.

10cm does jack ***when you're talking scales of thousands of miles or more.

Several thousand dead and people worrying about a few dollars, that is more than sad, it's totally pathetic.
I'm not worried about either of that. A company shouldn't be able to charge you for not providing a service. It's just bad business.

btw I just donated $25 here. Cause I'm not a terrible human being.

Ah, I didn't know anything about that~

Our axis shifted?

But anyways, 10cm will *** up our seasons by like, minutes, not anything noticeable.

I love that NPC's dialog. The servers may go down, but my gear is safe from natures wrath and all forms of cosmic powers!

With that in mind, I'm perfectly fine with the choice of having the servers shut down if need be.

Curious now, why was I rated down here?
Was I misunderstood or is someone legitimately upset they might not be able to log in for a few days?

It's a minor irritation but given the circumstances I understand. There are many people there who will never get to play this game again because they are dead now. RIP Kakarotto.

Heaven better have FFXI on private servers or something >.>

Curious why the rate down system is still around and which people are dumb enough to think is is a good system.

Well sometimes a company will do it anyway but that's usually because of an outage so excessive they fear losing customers permanantly. I doubt we'd be down for long anyway.

I typically don't mind it, but when I have a valid argument or point to make, it's somewhat aggravating to see it disapproved without any rebuttal or retort to give that negativity merit; even if it is just a tiny number on the far right hand corner lol.

Why give a ***about someone who doesn't give a ***about you??

You've got alot to learn about compassion.

Everyone learned about it at some point. Personally I think it is overrated.

Frankly that ***aggravates me. The whole why should I care thing.

You live in a world with people and use benefit from their labor. If you do not want to give a ***about anyone then please stop leeching.

Decode:

People showing kindness to me makes me aggravated. Why should I care about people, who care for me. I mean, I live in a world which exists for my benefit. Therefore, don't be kind to me 'cuz I hates you all.

Dang! Sounds like you need a hug man, or a man hug!

Was rushing to type it while I am running after people popping this VNM.

Anyway, why are you asking if I need a hug? I was telling that to someone else. Where did I say or allude to the idea that kindness makes me aggravated?

What makes me aggravated are emo apathetic people who say ***about not caring about anyone else besides themselves.

your post made no sense.. but everybody has their own ***to deal with lol if you have enough care to go around knock yourself out :)

Best to just ignore the rating system. All it is, is a click of a button on a computer, with or without reason.

You could start a thread with proof of you curing cancer and you would probably still get rate downs from the random person who didn't like your avatar, doesn't like you for whatever reason, or just enjoys rating people down.

Edit: And I rated myself down as well just because I guiltily enjoy that minus sign from time to time, too. :)

Weird quirk of human nature? Or they got used to zam. It was never supposed to be a rating system here, just a report queue.

You'd be surprised, but quite a number of users rate down nearly every post they read that isn't from themselves or one of their friends.

Rate downs are far more common than rate ups, which probably says quite a bit about the personalities of FFXI players, at least those represented here.

I've shared my thoughts on the rating system in countless other threads so I won't rehash them here, but suffice to say, I wouldn't dwell too long on a rate-down unless there's so many, it gets your post auto-reported.

Why do I have to care about everyone on the planet or just myself?

Can't I choose who I care about? :c

I'm only half serious in this post, btw.
