Bentii

Thank you all! I am so happy that I am here with such an amazing community! I am glad to know I won't be denied RP because of this! You are all an amazing group of people and I look forward to future Role Play with you all!

She had no intent in coming to Eorzea, her fail safe was a scroll that was created with the purpose of Teleporting the user to a safe place. Being as she didn't make it and she got it from a questionable figure in the first place, it wasn't even her who dimensioned hopped herself. She infact had no part in it, nor does she even come even SLIGHTLY closed to being able to produce a FRACTION of the power it would take to do so. So yea my character is not doing anything wrong, and is NOT overpowered what so ever.

I want to say thank you to everyone here that has posted so far, and also to the people that have been helping me. My suspicion has been confirmed and I now know, from what I have been messaged, that everyone agrees that it is NOT lore bending. Though everyone has also told me that it is not common, nor accepted by elitist pricks as the person I spoke to. This person told me he spoke for all of the Balmung server and fact is, everyone who has posted is from the Balmung server... and you all seem so very different than what he made you out to be... So now I find myself compelled to ask the question here on the thread. So my question is this: Is it possible to dimension hop in FF? From what I understand all the Final Fantasy games are connected in some way, either being apart of parallel universes or other worlds/dimensions. My character comes from another world (Game) and I loved her back story so much I could not force myself to erase it all and ruin the memories and development she went through to get where she was today. So all I did was when she was being chased down by people that were trying to kill her she used a fail safe, that was supposed to teleport her to a safer place. Unfortunately something went wrong and she ended up here in Eorzea, her subconsciousness taking over the body of a Female, Keeper of the Moon, Miqo'te that was a parallel version of herself. She appeared before another Miqo'te who took her in and is now teaching her the way of life that a Keeper of the Moon lives. There is no way, ICly that anyone would know about her being from another world, unless through intense RP and a lot of trust on her part. This gives her no strength, power, or special abilities. It is just as if she moved from one town to the next... it has no effect on the world or her acquaintances. This is just a piece of her history. Now I shall ask again, with this completely out there. Does this deserve for me to be kicked off the server? Or be told that I was going to be shunned? Even ignored?

You know... I am mostly afraid of asking here cause the way I was shot down and told that I would be better of in another server... I honestly felt a little pushed out, and was also told that the entire community would shun me for what I am trying to do... And honestly I feel a little put off about it... I know the answer to this question, I just feel like I need to ask the opinon of everyone else because I don't feel like being shunned by my fellow roleplayers over something that isn't even a big deal... honestly it's not... So if I could have someone willing to talk to me in private, so I can just ask without being worried about others shunning me because of this small detail in my characters bio... I am a heavy RPer, so I read and researched the lore carefully... the question I have is not lore bending, goddmodding, or any other type of fault... it's an unimportant detail that I was told I had to leave the server for.

Hey all! I just wanted to know who I could possibly go to, in a private chat, about a lore question I have? I was recently told to leave the server cause I was lore bending... and I happen to KNOW that I am not, but I would like confirmation about this by someone who considers themselves pretty well read in the lore. I would actually like several people's opinion if I could... so if someone could message me that would be great! Thank you!

Your first point is a really debatable.. I find that the community is acutually fairly spread. One of the most common reasons people think there is no RP is because they have character that wouldn't normally go up to people.. they expect other RPers to just walk up to them and RP, which is a nice thought true, but very few follow through... no one ever take the initiative to actually search for it... I have experianced this on serveral MMO's. People say "Oh this is a dead community, there is never RP.." But for some reason.. I alway seem to get RP when I actually try to find it... I take the initative and search for it and 90% it takes me less than 5 minutes, even without a guild... not wait for some random person to come up to me... You say your community is very, very small.. but honestly the amount of rolepayers are decently dispersed... It's the roleplayers themselves that make it seem small... For your second point I would like to apologize for my misinformation, I didn't not realize that it was decided with multiple people, that is on me. For your third point I just want to say that your statement is untrue... when the game first came out to purchase the servers, Balmung and Gilgamesh, became immediately unavailable. From my experience on the server Faerie, I found a good community of RPers on that server... in fact they were the one's that led me to this site... And quite a few of them had to move because no one wanted to take the time to consider another server... after anyone mention it is completely shot down... and then someone has to post a video that came out in beta (It was posted on Aug 10, 2013)... not when the game actually was available to purchase (Aug 27, 2013)... that video is outdated from my understanding.. thus conversation is outdated... no one expected for the servers to be so crowded... not even SE... so I don't see why there cannot even be a discussion on this matter... I am not trying to be rude but I seriously feel like this discussion is being put off when it could be gone over again... I would also like to say that the RPC have defiantly grown... I mean most of the original member of this site are probably from beta... and that most likely doesn't even cover half the community that is in this game now.

Okay… So after long consideration, I have finally decided that I should post a response to a question that everyone has seemingly continued to ask… Is there ever going to be another RP server? Here is what I have to say about this subject: First off… Where does it say that Balmung and Gilgamesh is supposed to be the only RP servers for this game? I mean seriously! Square Enix doesn’t even support an actual Roleplay server! Who got to decide which servers were going to be the “Unofficial” server! What are you going to do if they ever decide to put in official servers (Not saying it will but this is just something for you to think about) and choose to have different servers to support RP? There is no reason to limit 2 out of 23 servers to RP. Second… I think I should put it out there that both Balmung and Gilgamesh are almost completely full of players! I am sure I am not the only one that realizes that this prevents people from actually logging into the game to RP on said servers! I for one feel that another server would greatly help spread out our community so more Roleplayers can do what they love…. I guarantee you that waiting a half an hour to log in is not something anyone loves... So I really think that it is time to put it to the vote whether we add another server to our list… I mean seriously… why don’t we ask what everyone else wants to do… instead of acting like the admins are the overlords of the damn RPC… I don’t see why random people get to decide on this… From my first point I made, Square Enix is not deciding on this… we are, and when I say we… I mean everyone! Not some random group of people that are only in charge because they made this site. If the only reason there isn’t another server on FFXIV is because the admins say so, then this really isn’t much on a community in my opinion. But like I said it’s not just my opinion that counts its everyone’s, cause that is what a community is… Now if I am wrong about this then I am sorry and I would love someone to tell me exactly why there are only 2 servers being used for RP... out of 23. ALSO!!! Now that I am asking I would also like to know why in the hell Gilgamesh was chosen as a RP server! You would think it would be shunned... being as it is also home to 4chan and Reddit... Seriously... you would think that server is like... troll headquarters or something... ./shrug

I am on the Balmung Server

Hi there I am Bentii! I have been RPing for about a year now and I have RPed only in one other game (TERA) and I am excited to see how the community is here! Let me just say I have always loved Final Fantasy, though I have never played 11. I can't wait to start playing and I hope I find a nice group to be apart of!

I. Basic Info Characters: A'sulya Asaha Primary character: Asulya Asaha Linkshells: N/A Primary RP linkshell: N/A II. RP Style Amount of RP (light, medium, heavy): Heavy of course! Views on RP combat and injuries: I usually go by common sense, it is always the most entertaining. I can do roll based victories, but I prefer not to. Views on IC romance: That is apart of RP isn't it? I don't mind it but I don't go looking for it... If it happens it happens. Views on non-romantic RP (family ties, etc): I have had friends that we all played out a family, it was pretty cool. I like the idea of being able to RP out a full family. Views on lore: ... I am not a lore nazi? But I pretty much stick to the lore Views on chat functions (/say, /linkshell, etc): RP tools are important? III.
