That could be true, but it also appears that Ragus just keep on sleeping when we stand next to them, so it all balances out: Link



(for those tempted to try this at home, I'm standing next to a TP and I just cropped it out)

Not only that, you should see all the scat they kick up in our faces.

It blinds me every single time.

Hmm, caught the edited version of the post. I'm American, I from my recolection, I cannot think of a time when I have been prejudiced(right context?) I've been playing since about release too. Only people I have met that have been the least bit crude, only do so once (before I start saying mean things back) or if they were playing in a RP-way. To bad you didn't enjoy the game. It was a lot better before PVP! If not a tad bit boring, but still had nicer people. Not saying that people are mean now-okay, shutting up now.

In the couple of years I've been posting, I only recall one attack made towards my being in NA:
alyssah wrote:For your info Alwyne, I didn't find out anything about the exchange system until totally pissed off with the lack of challenge in the game.
I see you are doing the usual NA political 'peacekeeping' role by being antagonistic in someone else's back yard. I wish I could redirect my fart and blow you back across the ocean as you sound about as lightweight as some of the weekend mobs.
Don't you think you have a big enough forum on NA server or perhaps you're not their favourite person either. How do you think your co-gamers would feel if we started butting into to your forums discussion, telling your people they are idiots,and they don't have the brains to work out mission objectives.
I reckon they'd send a peacekeeping force, don't you?

Personally, I thought it was hilarious. My response was:

OK, reviewing this thread, no real offense intended, but its rather rediculous. Pamelak, you havn't provided support to your claim at all that there is any anti-americanism against you. Over all, you have just said, "People don't like me because I'm American. I quit. I got rid of game. I cancelled billing. You don't understand me cause your not American. You don't understand me even though your American. Your lucky, thats why."

I am sorry, but I used to play WoW. The actual community is pretty bad to say the least. So... unless you actually provide an instance where you felt racistism, I could actually care less if you leave as I see just excuesses being made. And yes, I am an American. And proud of it. And what is best, I get along fine with my foreign brothers and sisters here. Sorry if I have offended anyone, but I have probably spoken for quite a few of you out there.
