Always nice to have a heavy DD, you can honestly stick w/ THF BLM SAM and ur pretty set, well equip all 3 make ur THF a Th4 *** and have SAM for DD. etc

Currently running around without an LS of any sort. There's quite a bit I need to do before I can be "Useful." But yeah, 3 different uses are nice. Heavy Melee DMG, TH, and Magic Damage. Now I just need a healer/buffer and viola! :p

Why is offensive though? Cuz we called them that in WW2? They bombed us first, they can get the *** over it.
Because they find it offensive. Same way some people are sensitive to curse words and others aren't. I guess it's all about individual interpretation. There's probably a lot of things somebody would find offensive that I wouldn't, and vice versa.
People only find things offensive because they're taught that they're offensive. As people grow and change, they either hold onto that state of mind, or they don't... The Japanese didn't wake up one day and go "Hey, I think that the term Jap is offensive." It came from somewhere.
Does it matter why it is offensive? It is an ethnic slur and considered offensive

You can do just fine covering 2 aspects, like I have Tank(s) Heavy DD(sss lol) and BRD for buffer(Which no one ever wants to do) so I cover a lot.

And exhaust their strength without fighting them.

There is no worse disaster than misunderstanding your enemy;
To do so endangers all of my treasures;

So when two well matched forces oppose eachother,
The general who maintains compassion will win.

We tend to over do things, and besides, they drew first blood! Speaking of ***like that, is there any term for Americans that is offensive? I can't think of any... lol.
So what does WW2 have to do with offensive terms for another race? Really. And you can't really use the they started it. Look at all the ***we started lol. And sure there are lots of offensive terms for american's though most of them are somewhat specific I think
Isn't WW2 where that term originated? It has everything to do with why its offensive. And you totally can use that they did start it. I'm sure the people fighting the Japanese in WW2 didn't call them Japs to piss them off.. We Americans tend to just do ***like that.. with all our slang and what not. They bombed us, we fought back and won. If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen!
Again what does a war that happened a long time ago have to do with giving us the right to using offensive terms against another race today? And so what if they started it. It's not like we didn't pay them back and then some. Again how many conflicts have we started over the years? It was used before the war however become more of a slur during/after.

All I'm saying is that it originated somewhere, possibly from something stupid, or possibly from something serious. Regardless, people need to STFU and stop QQ over stupid ***. The only reason there is so much hate between countries/races/whatever is because people ***over the dumbest *** when they need to be worrying about getting along with each other. I am by no means racist or anything of the sort. I believe in equality on all levels, but I also believe that the biggest reason racism, etc. is such an issue is because people instigate and cry over it.

Same. I only really play around with jobs because I want to; I've never played jobs just because somebody's told me to or my shell thinks it'd be more useful. I never thought in a million years pre-NIN75 I'd level NIN, but I enjoyed it so much I took it to 75, and now it's probably my favourite 75 to be on.

And then there's LOLDRG too, which I <3<3<3.

But if they weren't fun I wouldn't have bothered. That's why I can't stand to play BLM anymore, I just don't enjoy it.

Corsair looks like it would be a fun job, especially since I'm a gambler. The only problem I'd come across is that people expect Corsairs to run around with MKris and DD. "You don't DD as Corsair? You suck!"

People expect COR to DD? They certainly do not, lol. That's the BIGGEST problem with COR; nobody knows how well it can DD.

It did originate somewhere. And became derogatory mostly thru american media and propaganda. We made it derogatory.

By that same token a person could say anything to you if you do make a fuss about any of it you should be told the same thing.

I would say if anything, someone bitching about the COR not DDing is in the right. They can and should DD, especially at Colibri levels. Piercing bonus really helps raise the damage; although pre-56, it's not worth the bother.

And lol @ the bronze bullet COR. We had one like that in Sea awhile ago. Full timed Apollo's, etc... /facepalm

You mean to tell me that the entirety of Japan sat and watched the American News? Doubtful... not only is it doubtful, most of them probably wouldn't know what was being said anyway. Jap is offensive because Japanese people made it offensive. Do you know that the Japanese media made up so many horrible lies about the American Military that they had their citizens so scared of us that thousands of them jumped off cliffs because they didn't want us to torture them?

Why would they have to watch our tv to pick up on it? What about all the japanese americans who grew up being called jap while being spit upon and thrown into concentration camps? Or the same to all the ones we saw and met? That's like saying black people made *** derogatory lol. By definition a ethnic slur is something used to slander or put down another group of people. And we certainly did that after the war started. Again what gives you the right to use racial slurs considered against another people?

They weren't contradictory. People don't expect COR to DD, because they don't know about its capabilities. But in my opinion, if somebody does *** about the COR not DDing, they are correct and should continue to do so!

Someone who complains about COR DDing means that they expect COR to DD. If they didn't expect them to, they wouldn't be complaining, correct?
