If I were feeling more militant I would have Things to say about all the tank artwork being men and all the healer artwork being women.

Well, the one for Marauder is a female Roe. Granted it's ONLY that one, but.
Kinda weird, in hindsight.
The Conjurer's Guild is led by E-Sumi-Yan, a male. The most prolific White Mage (aside from Kan-E-Senna and her siblings) is A-Towa-Cant, who was male. The Scholar's questline pretty much has only male characters (excluding the Warrior of Light) aside from the fairy until Setoto is introduced. And the Astrologian questline has a female mentor for the most part, though I recall you getting passed on the AST abilities from her grandfather in the first place.
I can say this male Lala is looking forward to playing a Sage. While my primary solo class is BLM I've enjoyed Scholar quite a bit when I party up. Sage looks right up my alley.
The Pun Dragon
I have a few fantasia so I decided to try to make a Hrothgar that looks kinda like my dragon.
Hrothgar animations are so... beefy and fridgelike, I've always been fine with Roegadyn but there's a level of what I assume is intended to be aggression to Hrothgar that combined with the similar body shape is kinda... they look like they might fall over on short notice.
Since I have enough to try one more and still go back to Miqo'te, I might try Elezen.
Uh...that's a scam and you'll be banned in the game for real world trading. Also are you a bot? If you're not, i suggest deleting your message before the mods ban you here

Too late.
"Yup. That tasted purple."
That name looks like a bot for sure.
Remember, these idiots drive, fuck, and vote. Not always in that order.
Great, the bot problem is so out of control that it's spilling out all the way here.
A society grows great when old men plant trees whose shade they know they will never sit in.

Ah, bots. It's been some time. Actually, it took me a while to learn how they operate in FFXIV, until I realized that their focus is on Disciples of Land/Hand, not leveling and farming rare mats like I was used to seeing.

... And that's called jazz!
You can see them zipping around Gridania, too - they like to hide under the map and shoot things as BRD.
I really don't like seeing it. It breaks immersion (inasmuch as there is immersion) and just feels wrong.
It's been fun.
Problem is, they're handled by a different group from the regular GMs (the Special Task Force handles "cheating"). Which is how they're able to corner the market boards uncontested while harrassment reports are handled much more quickly.

Not sure how true this is, but I heard a few times on how people tried to lure mobs to bots to break their script, only for the people behind the botting to report the player.

heard stories like that, yes. I try to check if there's someone systematically shortselling when I'm looking for something, but it's complicated.
I always see them out of bounds in Gridania on my server, like 4+ of them at all times.
Square really does nothing to combat them and well... prices on my server are well most items are barely above vendor value because of the bots.
I can't tell if the trend of undercutting by 100 gil or 10 gil or whatever is bots or just people who think it makes them clever, but I always buy the listing they're trying to undercut instead. And yeah, it's really annoying that you can't report Xvfjvfrtj Basdjasd for teleporting around like the world's worst Ascian.
It's been fun.
I think they said that was a mistake and they stopped doing it.
Team Rocket Boss.
I do hear they clamped down on ERP advertisers though.
Good riddance.
I'll teach you a lesson about just how cruel the world can be. That's my job, as an adult.
Yup, it's a good thing they clamped down on all the people advertising for consensual roleplay inside their own private estates instead of the bots doing market manipulation and gil farming, huh. /s
There are dancing girls in Ul'dah, a bar called the Missing Member in Limsa, a strip club and a brothel district in Kugane... cracking down on people running nightclubs or other types of clubs doesn't improve anything, and it's a weird moment to decide to suddenly be prudish.

I mean, it doesn't even make much sense in real life. Brothels are usually ignored even by conservative governments, but presidents have been deposed for ruined economies.
I have seen what bad bot management can do to a server. It beats being accosted by a guy giving out pamphlets to a hostess bar.

"You'll have short queue times if you play as tank", they said.
Me waiting for 15 minutes to do the Ravana fight:
But no seriously, Ravana is my favorite Primal so far. His theme is too good (both parts), and his design is sick. I love especially how the first part sounds like a waltz, and that matches up really well with his fight which is like a dance of mechanics, almost.
Like reflections in the glass!
Thing is what people mention queues its is mainly for dungeons and roulettes. Anything else will depend on the popularity of the content and the role and there are even some (Alliance Raids) where the tanks actually get the worse of the queue times.
Next job artwork better have a Hrothgar, we haven't gotten one with them yet!
