Yes!
Congratulations, you finally get it.
It is simply there to look pretty, the same reason several Japanese shirts say smurf (without the filter) these days. They have no idea what it means but it's letter art.
Let's break this down. Even MSPAINT has Copypaste and a 'text' option. Their texture programs have copypaste and 'text' options.
1. Certainly, you can do better than copy-pasting my words and adding 'counter' to it, child.Have you got evidence they are not? If no, then your counter-claim is baseless.Have you got evidence they are? If no, then your claim is baseless.
2. The default claim is never baseless.
3. My 'counter claim' does not need to be substantiated if your original claim is not.
That's not nonsense, however. These greek letters spell utter nonsense. It's Dummy Text.They added Latin words with the wrong sentences on Ultimecia's paintings. Was that intentional nonsense too?
It's, and I know this is hard to grasp for you, MEANINGLESS FILLER.
This is not meaningless. You're just refusing to believe it because common sense overpowers you.
If this thread was about a blank wall or some paint, it wouldn't reach 2 pages or so.

Cause you are the one that had been posting to make it get to two pages? We can always delete our posts if you want.
And getting two pages doesn't mean anything! A lot of spam or random threads get to ten pages for no particular reasons.
And sorry, we really cannot think like you which doesn't involve common sense but that doesn't mean we must get lectured for using common sense right?
...
What?
My common sense says that your common sense is broken. Even if a bunch of jumbled-up Greek may happen to form a word, it doesn't mean it's significant. THAT is common sense.
So, Square wastes time on typing the text and putting it over there because it's not significant? Not to mention that they were in a hurry to finish VIII?
Yeah, okay.
Are you perhaps trying to distinguish between external and internal logic?
External logic is what concerns the creators of the game (Square) and the players (us).
Internal logic is what concerns the characters who are (presumably) unaware that they are in a story.
We have been discussing the external logic behind the text: why the game makers put in the Greek letters in this way.
If you are trying to suggest that it has meaning internally, that may well be true, unless Dollet puts random Greek letters on their communication equipment. It could be like a serial number or something.
But the consensus seems to be it has no greater meaning externally. And the partial matches have not been persuasive.
Serapy, the argument is that you are finding meaning in something that looks like this.
rehewaos ret face rgvw.
And you are then taking the word face out of context with where it comes from. Greek looks cool, especially to Japanese people who never saw anything like it before.
Also it could be a number, the greeks used letters for numbers as well. That would make the text translate to
6060040;4 2500703..9
20701005, 5005030014170070
which again has no meaning at all.
