i see everyone with livejournals now. i'll make mine to remember what i do
hmm. lets see. istarted ffxi on july 12th, 2004. i would have started on my bday -the 8th- but my uncle was in the hospital and had pneumonia. istarted on the ps2. my logic was that the windows OS would fuck it up so much that my pc would have to be really good in order to overlook that. on top of all that istarted out on Dial~up. lol. yay 3-6 hour update times.
ok so starting out in my ffxi world. made medium hume > with w/e face. i'll post a pic later. i sat in my room . trying to come up with a name, the simpsons were on. and Cletus. the red neck dude with all those kids was on.
but ALAS! Cletus was taken. so idc i just named him Cletis lol. i chose war as my frist job. thinking that was a good job to start out as and w/e
took me about. 4 weeks to lvl war from 1-6. i really dont remember why. ijust know i was/ still am but not as much/ really slow. First day i started to play i met Skyler. oyeah <_< iforgot to mention i didnt have a keyboard yet. Skyler somehow had the paitence to deal with mah noob ass. i dont really remember what he said. but he still plays now. so thats cool.
the 2nd day i was out lvling. ihad a keyboard now >:O . hit lvl 2. ithought it was time for a break. so some lvl8 monk strolls by and /waves to me. his name was Humberto. he got me my frist LS. HolySlayers. the sacholder that gave me it was Kajaina. who later made another char Jenelli. the leader of HolySlayers was Demonslayer. he quit (tho he would be back) and Jenelli made DefendersOfVanadiel. i still have my sac ^^ . random people that i can remember. Macxero, Macone, Shirin, Windaze, Leogant, Ansel, Vrony, Truearm/Bluethorne, Lightanddarkness, and my RL buddy that made like 8 chars so far. ithink his first was Drecent.
iremember saying something like 'hey you gonna be on tomorrow?' Humberto>> yeah i'll cya later
he didnt show up D:
i got over it. and i just kept lvling *at my own pace* ...after 4 of playing i hit 24war/8mnk with the motherfucking greatsword!!! . i didnt realize back then that no one like a gimp sub <_< humberto came back and we started talking again. basically he didnt have enough time. so. yeah he wont be back ithink ; ;
friends in my LS convince me to lvl whm. in 2weeks i was 28whm/20blm. that shit was easy. so i lvled mage jobs now :O
another thing i noticed when i hit 'higher' lvls. was that gil is hard to come by. some people said i should craft or w/e but i was lazy. ithink i bought shit from vendor and sold @ AH for like 3k. so i made a 2.5k profit. imade about 30k a day :o
but then i look at all the female chars. they have all this shit. i swear to fucking god. GIRLS GOT HANDED SHIT back then. and i always hated that. no im not saying that all girls did. but most of them. ithink they still do but not as much anymore <_<
igot my first advanced job: Samurai. i was fucking in love with that job. lvled it to 8 and kept going with whm .ahahah.
ithink it was around here my LS started doing promys. ididnt have CoP so i went over another friends house and took his since he wasnt going to use it. installed and registered. go and did promy dem and mea. BUT DIDNT DO HOLLA.. i still need holla to this day. holy fucking shit.'
ok so my whm is 38 and blm is 29 . and i decide to lvl rdm. i get to valkurm. and i start lfp . to my suprise i get a quick invite. and it was from someone named Musicalangel. lvl 10 whm. she was being PLed by a 75pld Almaa.
now im not sure exactly what was going on or w/e. but i remeber in the sig. BG (JP squigglies) LEAVE ME ALONE.
it turns out almaa was a dude. and he was PLing his wife. and so i gave them a DefenderOfVanadiel pearl. and we started to static. they were both very nice etc. i talked on the phone with Almaa a few times. a few months later after my rdm being 35, Almaa stoped showing up. he was on a week later. i /t him. he didnt remember me. it turns out he sold his char.
so i called him. basically he wanted to go to Remora. so i made a char on Remora. a taru blm. got it to 18 in 2 days . and stuff happened. Leogant from my LS came with us. he transfered over his char to Remora too D: so hes on there somewhere. another person from my LS went there . but Royalknight is back
idecided to stay back on bahamut. i ran to jeuno on chocobo. i needed gil bad if i was gonna lvl rdm. ineeded phalanx man!!! so i get there and i see a shout. "PL needed. Reward you can have this. " or something. so i /t him. and got him in my pt. my whm had teledem by then. so i tele'd us and i started to PL him. he was a pld taru named Goten. he still my buddy to this day. i remember meeting him before in valk. while he was PLing on his whm. but i PLed him that day from lvl7 all the way to 18 ithink. i met his sister Quyen, upper 60's blm, too. I got a SoFaKiNgReTaLLdiD pearl. once his pld was 38 or something around my rdm we staticed all the way to 53 . he was too fast for me and he kept going.
one day my RL buddy needed a PL in valkurm. so i went there as my 38whm . and got him and the pt to 18/19. someone in the pt named Stridan needed SJ items. so i told him i'd help him. iswitched to my rdm. ( which was in the middle of the static with Goten. was around lvl 39) so he needed the skeleton thingy. and we went to some tunnel. and i got him one. (there was a 75mnk there too and he help. alttle) lol
Stridan lvled like a fucking mofo. he passed me up pretty quick. and basically he was the person that made me want to lvl mnk. he was 75 by the time i was 55rdm. he had byakko shorts and dune boots and all that shit by the time i was 60. and he quit when i hit 73 rdm D:
i helped him rename his char to Kaioshen. imade a mule named Stridan and SE did the hole thing. etc..
going back to Goten. on my bday - 2005. Goten and his brother/sister did not play that day. or anyother day. i go back in the LS. (which was aptly named CitizensOfVanadiel. and they said he quit.). so now my old LS. Defenders was empty. because Jenelli quit. and Goten was gone. i had no one to hang out with again. summer came. and i did my shit in RL. i came back to ffxi to tell everyone i was quitting in september or something. and i didnt remember anyone in Citizens. I said hello! . <Cac> OMFG CLETIS!!!!. some lvl 23mnk that i never met before. was excited to see me . it turns out that he sold his char (with all his gil -.-) and then remade this char. Goten was taru. Cac is hume . imiss my taru friend D: but he is back :D so its ok. Supremebuddha changed his name to his RL name. Thang.
ithink it was around here i switch over to the PC version. i did this because mainly windower. has lots of nice features. and internet has porn <_<
Cac hit 75mnk in about 2-3months. which he never had a 75 before. so he was quick too. so 2 people lvled mnk now. thang lvled war to 75 in about. 3-4 months. alittle slower but idk. they both passed me up lol
this is about when LS drama starts to emerge. and i dont like the drama D:
Doku was our LS leader. he and his brothers stoped playing ALOT so cac took over Citizens. after awihle we started doing dynamis. but i was still rank5 so i couldnt go ahahahha. i got rank 6 and started doing endgame shit. for 6 months or so i just lvled random jobs. got mnk to mid 50's.
o. then ToAU came out. igot Toau about 7 months after it came out =/ so. fuck you SE .
with ToAU mnk was really easy to lvl now. i finally got rdm to 75 in february. 73 >> 75 in one weekend. then 2 weeks later i got monk to 75.
i got utsusemi:ni around here too. which allowed me to lvl nin.
i got byakko shorts in march. im hoping to get shura togi soon too. mnk > all DD
my friend Kimberly was getting bored with the game tho. and i convinced her to lvl her rdm with my nin. so ever since. march. we lvled rdm+nin ( now +brd with silverthorne). right now im 69nin. which is fastest i ever lvled. really do feel like its a different game now. im just trying to have fun at the same time that im now trying to get shit done.
old pic lol
