Every game community I've ever been involved with (including FFXI) has had its fair share of annoying/rude/ignorant/selfish members.

FFXIV's looking better and better, almost to the point of convincing me to leave ffxi for it. The prospect of riding on a goobbue was enough in itself, but jumping really intrigues me too...ffxi's lack of jumping is so painful. I think I'll wait until ps3 launch to join, though. My computer will only run the game with most of the settings turned down, and it's just too beautiful a game to not play at max/near max. And I prefer playing on console in any case.
