Hello and welcome!

Hello and welcome to Balmung!

Hooray! Yes, sure thing!

Ooh, ooh! Limsan miqo'te, check! Dodgy dealings, check! The only catch is...Inarah moved to Limsa maybe half a year ago so she couldn't really be an old friend. Although if you're open to it, she could be someone who knows one of your shady friends, due to the work she does now? Just an idea.

Inarah maybepossiblykinda had a very brief crush on the Rogues' Guild leader, Jacke... :blush:

I'll third that!

Oh hi there, I was on AD-EU as well! You might want to check out the European Directory for events, linkshells and free companies friendly to our timezones. Welcome to Balmung!

I'd like an invite too, please.

[align=center][/align] This week's entertainment is brought to us by you, our patrons! No, we're not being lazy, we swear... We open as normal at 19.00 GMT but the fun really starts at 20.00 GMT, where any willing and able person can perform for our audience's approval. Whether it's dancing, singing, playing an instrument, telling jokes or bending your fingers at unnatural angles, you have a chance to impress with your skills! The audience will choose the winner, who, naturally, will get the grand prize of Something Nice™*. So dust off your dancing shoes, guitar, or whatever your talent of choice requires and join us this Saturday!

Some may find it Exceedingly Nice, and others may find it Not Very Nice At All. Offer void where prohibited. Do not apply directly to skin.

W-wow, that's...yeah, I'm not paying over £100 for it.

We did, you just didn't listen. Last night we showcased our wares at the Mid-moon Meanders Market Meetup (try saying that three times fast!), with Thya providing some unique armour and Inarah offering tasty cuisine. Both seemed to go down a treat! Once the market ended, we headed off for what was meant to be a straightforward contract negotiation but ended in betrayal and bloodshed. Finally, presenting the most recent plotline event report for perusal:

Thanks for hosting this, I had a great time! Glad everyone seemed to enjoy Inarah's cakes and other dishes.

You can. I successfully transferred when Balmung was still locked down for new characters.

Welcome aboard!

:dodgy: [video=youtube]

Awww. If I make one (still a bit undecided), it's going to be a brand spankin' new character. Just waiting for a lore drop before I finalise any plans.

I can second (or third) the "RP friendly" as well. Sadly it tends to mean maybe a handful of people RP and the guild tolerates discussion of it but they don't actually do any as a whole. Huge guilds can put me off. I've been in some over the years and the combination of established cliques and being a new face in the crowd can leave you quite isolated, despite your efforts to jump in and get involved. Small guilds can be guilty of 'inviting and forgetting' new members as well but I found it popped up more often in the big ones. But I'd say the biggest deterrent is drama. If I see it on their site before I join, or see it happening a lot after I join, well, I'm going to have second thoughts. I know it happens - it's fairly unavoidable at times in RP communities - but containing it and dealing with it should be a priority. I just want to have fun after a long day at work and being thrust in the middle of arguments isn't what I'd call fun.

I used to, a lot. Not so much now. I've been burnt too many times, pre-ordering a hyped game only to be sorely disappointed when I play it. Now I tend to wait for player reviews before I part with my hard earnt cash.

Hello and welcome!

Hello and welcome!

Hello and welcome!

Ooh, I'll be there!

Same here. The price is prohibitive enough but it's a whole new level of demoralising when there aren't even any plots available to purchase. :frustrated: Will do! Edit: SE are doing a player survey, and I also ranted a bit about housing when I filled mine out...

We had a great time last night at the second opening of the Sunny Seaside Bar. Thanks to everyone who attended and congratulations to Cinaed Wilder, our Triple Triad tournament winner! Despite not advertising quite as heavily as last time, the bar was still packed and our staff were certainly kept on their toes. This week we also welcomed Thya Kahzuun, Z'thara Dhen and Yoral Porral to our ragtag bunch of misfits. Thya is our new resident blacksmith, Thara brings some sorely needed skill in stealth and Yoral claims to be a healer, albeit one who may have hit his head on coral a few too many times... We've got quite a lot of work lined up, with a search for star maps on Monday, Stone Wall's dungeon adventure on Thursday and Kilid taking the reins for the company plotline event on Saturday. We hope everyone's ready to show us what they've got! Finally, we're still recruiting for a couple more able bodies so if you're interested in joining then please get in touch in game or apply via our website. That's it from me, over and out!
