Hmm... The issue I'm having now is... er... Well, I've met a lot of nice and awesome people, and lots of people are willing to help me advance, but I'm now able to go to the other main cities and such, and... I can access the main game content just fine and people are always friendly and willing to help, but when it comes to RP, I just can't find anyone in-game... I found that "quicksand" place, but... No one noticed me, and I am really shy, so... I dunno, I'm just having trouble with it all. I joined an OOC linkshell, but I can't find any in-character ones, or any FC at all... (Plus the nature of my character, he's supposed to be shy, so it's difficult to initiate any dialogue because of that as well ) I don't know, it may just be that I'm new, or not looking in the right places... (and the extreme shyness doesn't help either...) but thank you for all the help and advice you guys have given me so far I really appreciate it! :moogle:

Thank you all for the tips, help and advice! I have since joined one OOC LS, and am still looking for some kind of RP... I'm almost level 20 now, so I assume it'll get easier to find a FC or something then. As someone who is very shy and has little (but growing) knowledge of the game's lore, I'm a little nervous when it comes to applying for anything (applying for a FC through the forum when I'm so new just seems... Unlikely to me that I'd be accepted) but I've definitely felt very welcome here, and I appreciate it a lot. :moogle: What I mean to say is... Thanks!

Alrightee, so I think I'm finally all set up. I have designed a character (am in the process of getting it all in writing) and FINALLY got in to Balmung. That said, I am very new to the game, (couple of days) but I would like to get into RP as soon as possible (for immersion as well as developing the character further). The problem is, with such little experience with the game, I don't know where to start, or where to go to start. I am unsure how to apply to a FC, or how to join a linkshell, I have looked at various threads here as well as looked it up, I have a feeling it's something simple I'm overlooking, but I can't seem to find anything... Anyways! What should I do next to get started with some in-game RP? How do I go about finding/joining a linkshell/FC? ...sorry if this is in the wrong area, I didn't want to keep asking this stuff in the "Welcome!" section... I'm currently attempting to build up my profile here with as much relevant information as possible (an avatar of my character is next), so I'll be around... Thank you! :moogle:

Dren: Innocently Disturbed.

Awesome! I'll have to look out for that place... And, uh... This is probably a dumb question, but... How do I join a linkshell? I can't quite figure it out...

I don't know what a linkshell is, but I'll take a look And, uh... I'm new to the game as well. Where is this "Quicksand"? :blush:

Thank you all for the warm welcome! :love: I got in to Balmung JUST before the maintenance! I'm not sure where to go from here to join in on the RP stuff, but at least I'm making progress! :love:

Hello all! I am new to FFXIV, and wanted to know, which servers are the best for RP? I stayed up until past 6am trying to get into Balmung or Gilgamesh but it seems they are locked... Is that normal? Should I choose a different server? I am completely new to FFXIV, but have a decent amount of RP experience with all sorts of games and such. I will do a propor introduction in a bit, as it may take me a while and I'd hopefully like to choose a server before they lock more. :cry: Anyways, nice to meet you all! Assuming I can get into a server, I'll likely be here for a while --MMORPG background Too many to list. A lot, from all genres. Lately I've been playing a lot of EVE Online, as it's different, but I'm looking for something a little less... Stressful --Character ideas/info Ehehe... I prefer the mysterious type, and reveal info during RP... Keeps things interesting that way! --How did you learn about the coalition? I Googled "FFXIV RP" --What kind of a role-player are you aiming to be? Light, medium, or heavy? I would say I'm somewhere around a medium RP'er... I don't really know what the difference is from light to heavy (nothing to compare to?) but if I had to guess, it'd be medium. --Personal info I am quite a gamer, gaming in 99% of my spare time when not doing homework or other such activities. I am currently in my first year of University, so I have quite a bit of free time
