Some of these people who say such things have either: Been in KJ and been kicked out because of their horrible behavior (Scamming/stealing/disrespect/ etc) or they have been persuaded by others to believe so.
You know we have kicked all scammers and all and we still get harrassed and insulted.
Then there's the whole "KJ doesn't rp" .. which is completely stupid because Dustari and Zormite believe PKing is RPing. Let me tell you.. it's not. If you want to see real RPing go to Valikorlia, stay there for the whole day and you will see what GK needs and has been missing for a long time.
I can go on and on about this but then no one would read it because it's so long. I wish people would change but I suppose they won't because they are stubborn and wish to think they are the best.

The "newbie" assumption is based largely on the fact that KJ has no real requirement to join, just about any random, no skills, no morals, no logic, no ethics, no common sense player can get into KJ. Basically all the rejects of the other more strict kingdoms flock to KJ, therefor creating that image. It probably also stems from the fact that they do indeed sometimes try to RP, but considering "Japanese" is a hard thing to RP in a world where japan doesn't exist, it simply makes them look stupid. Therefor, stupid = newbie, once again, a possible basis for the stereotype.

I am quite the role player, and I have tried role playing a japanese persona, it's not an easy task, especially if you are trying to keep it legit and you don't know japanese.
