You know the difference between myself and most? I can be smart and admit that I can be an utter moron and an idiot at times without playing the denial card or trying to play a game of "spin the bottle" to see who inherits the blame.

In the original PSO it was all about the teams and elitism behind possessing weapons like Double Cannon or Spread Needle. In PSU it was all the idiotic Time Attack videos, while in PSO-2 its all the players that combine being a top TAer with Top Equipment and highest fashion around....
PSO2 gave me the ability to play the game regardless of the consequences the way I wanted to play it. I play as Fi/Te... I don't compete with other TAers because I am not here for that. If I fell into having to compete with others, then the purpose of playing this game would have failed and thus I would much rather return to real competition. In actual PvP based environments that are far better than proving who can beat a map the fastest...
