I have not seen one person in English / eu / Japanese prime time that spoke English that was picky about buying from a bazzar. I had it twice today where a japanse player would not trade. they ether wanted me follow them from witegate though al zahbi to bhafalu thickets to buy from a bazaar. I even explained to him i did not want to follow them that far and even told them about the zone to bhafalu thickets from whitegate or just trade me. They would not do ether so i didn't buy the item. ( I dont care for walking that much out of the way for something i somewhat want for a jacked up price)

then the next one wanted me to buy the item though bazaar and eating the 10% tax

how many players do this and more importantly why? is trading scary? you hit too meny keys? what?

nether of them would tell me why i had to buy from thier bazaar and not trade.

Inventory was full? Though it'd be easier for them to sort their crap than go all that way.

Because JP's enjoy being a pain in the ass? Kinda like the ones that will refuse to party with you for magian weapon killing spree's, even though it's beneficial for them to do so...

I've teamed up with a ton of JP's for shit like this. It's just stuck up people.

I have too but JPs are the only ones that say no for those sitatuions.

only time other people want to solo is when doing pet kills and sometimes they do help you.
sometimes JP are the same way in regards of worrying about pet kills.

but the only people that sit there and make it harder on everyone is when you have some JP sitting there to solo ( makes it harder because people are competing for mobs then ) and makes it slower for everyone.

i had a sky party where we where on DEX path killing statues, that NM was there and we went right though it like ti was nothing.

next party was being very stubborn, no one was communicating where they want to go and when they saw the NM they would just run. they would get killed more from running from the thing then they would of trying to kill it.

there are some nice JPs but the only people that are a super pain in the ass and insist on it are also JP.

some JP are so bent up on it they will spam you with " i dont speak any english" when you ask them something though translater. those JP only know how to tab key i dont speak any English.

i know there is that jp button thing but i was wondering if it was a teand that they hate trades or something idk

Yea I know... there are some decent JP's out there. It's a case by case basis. I'm prolly just burnt out from dealing with the stuck up ones for hours on end over the last few days.

This will sound clichéd, but it's so true from my experience - if you know some Japanese, and try to use some, most of the Japanese players will be 100x more likely to play nice with you. When I was soloing in Abyssea - La Theine, I ran past a small group killing Carabosse, right as they proc'd red !!. I had want of the Atma of Allure. I asked them if I could join their party - just for the atma drop, nothing else - in auto translate and scattered english, and they said no. I fumbled around a Japanese/romaaji answer, and they immediately invited me. 15 seconds later: Terranova obtains the key item: Atma of Allure! I ended up staying with them for their next six or seven Carabosse kills, and got Ryoshi Hachimaki, Sharpeye Mantle, Aristo Belt (drops from the pop NM for Carabosse), and about 50k exp. And practiced my Japanese in the process. (This same situation also happened in Misareaux when I came across a small group fighting Flame Skimmer: I ask in auto-translate and English, they say no. I fumble around some romaaji (Japanese in roman characters) and they invite me, congratulate me on getting the key item even though I hardly did any work, etc.

Point of the story is: learn some Japanese, try to talk to them, prove you're not one of the 95% of American players that are just 12-year-old egotistical bastards who don't know the first thing about their job, and they will usually be very friendly to you.

I shouldn't have to do that, that means people that uses third party tools to do that have an advantage ( there is windower use that can insert text in the game + google). I barely do well with English rather then a second language. that just shows they are biased.

nice story but shame they are so biased where they think people that only speak English are iminiature or 12 or bad at the game or w/e
