Hello everyone,
I figured I should do a bit of an introduction type thing since I'm about to get back (I suppose I can say that) into the game.
So about my MMO history, it actually all started with FFXI. I got the game at US release and played for a number of years on Ragnarok where played as a Taru Bard named Reli. I somehow managed to find a somewhat small RP LS (Good luck I guess) and that got me into the whole MMO RP thing. Eventually I moved to EQ2 where I played on the LDL RP Server for a number of years. I then went to Vanguard: SoH for a bit until it imploded. Then bounced around a bit between games until XIV came out. I played that for a bit until Squeenix made it F2P as I felt that the game might not recover. Did a bit more game bouncing and then wound up leaving gaming.
So that brings me to today... I was sitting bored at the computer and decided to see what had happened to XIV and was pleasantly surprised to find that it was back and doing quite well. So after a quick search for a RP server I found this site and well here I am!
As for RP experience I've been on the Light to Medium side in every game I've played. I've tried heavy RP but I tend to feel it's a bit too much to always be in character 100% of the time. I'd say I'm more at a medium level generally only breaking character to do dungeons and such.
Now I do have a couple questions that you all might be able to help with.
When I went into my account management it's telling my I'm eligible for a "recruitment code" which I have to assume gives me nifty stuff, free game time or both. So would anyone want to send one my way?
I remember from 1.0 that unlike XI the races were very balanced and you didn't really have to pick the race for your class. Is this still the case or have they mucked that up?
And any suggestions for a new character? Things to make sure I do or RP hotspots to make sure I visit?
Thanks in advance, and hopefully I'll be seeing you all in game soon!
