I'm lucky enough to have a handful of reliable friends who I tend to bounce ideas off of whenever I feel like getting some honest feedback on an idea. Most of them haven't taken the leap over to FFXIV, however - but they still try to help out from time to time.
Ironically they know very little about the game itself and still managed to piece together some potential character concepts that are far more interesting and very lore friendly compared to some of the stuff I've seen on this site.
Of course, some of my other friends are just plain awful at role-play or just don't have an interest in it. There's no hard feelings, though - there's stuff they're great at and I'm terrible at to balance it out.
