Welcome! That art is amazing! I can still only draw stick figures :dodgy: I hope you enjoy your time here!

Ignore my post :blush: I can't read today!

I am going to school full-time and work full-time so time management is absolutely key. One thing that I have learned how to do is maximize my time while playing, and yes the game can be very addicting and wonderful but the first rule is: Priorities. If you have school work or you have to go to work do that FIRST. Then you can play to your hearts content. :lol: I work a 9am-6pm job with classes that are online that require at least moderate attention (12-18 hours of school work + studying) with Wednesdays and Sundays off so I never get a "full weekend" as it were so my days have to be planned nearly perfectly (and most of the time they fall apart because I just want to be lazy as hell) :sleepy: One thing that I have always done is just look at everything one week at a time. "What do I need to do this week, or what needs to be completed" kind of schedule. Planning months/weeks ahead just gets too chaotic and hectic. As long as you can maintain a proper schedule you should be fine. I've been playing MMO's for 10 years now and I definitely know the good and bad sides to not scheduling properly. :bouncy:

*bookmarked* I will definitely need this when I can devote a lot of time to crafting, thank you so much for this info! :thumbsup:

I would love to use Tonfas I think it would be awesome. I always wondered about the weapons Pugilist/Monks use because they don't look attached to their hands as they are just holding on to them. Wouldn't they move quite a bit when punching something?

Oh man, that brings back the nostalgia. I'm surprised no one has said the FFVII boss battle music. Definitely my favorite song, because I'm pretty big into rock/metal/electonica

26 Year old here. Trying to finish the last term or two of my College career and just wait as the loan payments come in without the job I need to pay them with. As for my RP experience, well I don't really have a whole lot. I am playing in a D&D campaign for about a year now but I haven't been able to really grow out of my shell because honestly I'm a pretty shy person. With this I am trying to open that up and maybe actually really get into RPing. Although it doesn't help that I am playing someone who really resembles me. So please forgive me in advance if I screw up something here or there.

I like it! 10/10! Almost reminds me of Tesla. My character's name got lost in the mix so I will throw it in again Connal Fearon - A young Hyur Midlander who wants an adventure!

I would definitely check out this thread: http://ffxiv-roleplayers.com/showthread.php?tid=2688 it has helped me quite a bit in developing my backstory. Although I don't really have any sound advice as this is my first MMO RP adventure so I am quite fresh into this. Good luck!

I would so be a Bard just because of this.

I use Alt and it works too, I did not know Windows key works either! I have learned something new today :thumbsup:

This is my first RP MMO character, so be gentle please . I wrote it as the creator as well, he wouldn't be able to say all of that without bringing up a ton of bad memories or even share that much information about himself. I have included a snapshot of what he looks like as well, though it took some convincing as well to get that >.>

Your name reminds me of Mimosas...if I didn't know any better I'd think you were trying to get me drunk! 8/10 2 points deducted because now I want to get drunk at 9am in the morning.

Oh...now I feel sad. :cry:

Maybe it's just me but I swear that looks like a Samurai headpiece. Maybe Samurai are going to be added in the game later? *bounces in chair with excitement*

Ooo thank you for the advice! I actually am going a Hyur Midlander with a family background! I worked out some ideas last night and I got a few questions answered for the 100 questions about your character, it's really helping. Again, thank you guys for the warm welcomes. This is definitely 1000000x times better than what I have seen with some communities!

Thank you for the offer, I will definitely message you if I have any questions or just need someone to bounce ideas off. Thank you for the warm welcome, and thank you Nel for that video. I am already learning a lot and will continue to do so!

Hello and well met! I am quite new, as a matter of fact VERY NEW to the RP community and RPing in general. I'm not really sure what else to post as I usually tend to lurk in forums instead of actually participating. I was told to register here and start becoming active in the community to get a good idea of how it will be! I managed to grab the 100 questions about your character to start and honestly...this is quite a lot. I was wondering just how to come up with a great backstory. I have ideas but nothing 'feels' right with my character. Any advice (if you can give any, if not it's fine) would be most welcomed.
