There's a lost soul coming down the road, Somewhere between two worlds

I was reading a post on BG (I know, mistake #1 right there) about how the new beginner quests actually give *gasp* experience points for completing certain tasks (but no fame). In total, they give you 1800 experience. Not really gamebreaking.
Comment #10 – “so…..low lvls is like WoW now?”
Leading up to this, there [...]

At one point, a long time ago, there was a character on Diabolos (my original server) named ‘Sydonia’. I’m admitting that the name is not original, and was picked in honor of my friend.
One of the last messages I have from them (I do not know if they were a guy or girl, and in [...]

Just because one person doesn’t care about something doesn’t mean other’s don’t’ care. ( linky! )
Lets face it, for most people, there isn’t a whole lot left to post about. And looking on TTTO, there are a LOT of people who play WoW or another MMO either to take time away from FF, or [...]
Syd left me a message to pass on to her 2 readers.
She is very happy to finally hit level 60 after 12 whole days of leveling (remember the 3 x experience due to the linked accounts). She got her epic mount too (albeit with borrowed gold).
Then, Syd had to run, and forgot her screenshot [...]

As I’m sure has been obvious lately, I’ve been playing a lot less FFXI and a lot more WoW. No, I’m not quitting, but I am taking that vacation I needed from the world of Vana’diel.
This is a rant.
I’m tired of…
…losing exp at 75 when I die
…still farming sky after 3 years and not [...]

I saw pictures from the opening ceremony about 8 hours ago at work. The time-delay made it start at 20:08 EDT, or 8:08pm Eastern Daylight Savings time.
I’m watching the Parade of Nations, something I usually find far too boring to care about. My parents always turned it off growing up. And truthfully, [...]

Almost 2 years ago, my real life friend Ayslain, was banned from FFXI. Technically it was early September 2006, but they got their first temp ban in August 2006, and are coming to visit me this weekend, so its an appropriate time for this.
To say this ban was fair and deserved would be an [...]

After approx 2 weeks in the JoA shell, I’m already ready to leave.
The shell is all about getting items. Items for only the founding members. Members who already have just about everything, and who the new item doesn’t give them anything they don’t have, over those who have very little gears.
Example — item [...]

My second attempt at a T1 einherjar.
We got…. hounds and a wivre boss.
It was much easier this time, although I ended up about 1.2K exp lower than I started.
It was fun, and another 960 iccy things. Woot! Need 15K for … stuff.
Posted in Caitsith, FFXI, Judgment LS, Salvage on Jul 28th, 2008
Last week after Dynamis – Tav, I got to try my first salvage run.
It was quite interesting, and I’m glad I got to go.
When I entered, I had less HP than a lvl 40 monk. Let the fun begin.
And, of course, I was running around naked.
Since I was the monk, I got my most [...]
