So if you absolutely can't do something IC unless you've done it OOC how exactly does the inverse work? Do we all have a right to claim we personally killed Gaius just because we all did it in game? I don't think people should be restricted and penalized for something as understandable as not playing the flop that was 1.0. Well, again that all comes down to who you will take you seriously, which is what the thread is about. If someone said IC that they personally killed Gaius, I'm sure everyone here would have their own thoughts, and IC reactions. I've always thought that such statements that boast your character as the one who shapes the world for us all to be ridiculous. There's nothing wrong with catching up your story if you didn't play 1.0. Ultimately it's up to the people you're RPing with to believe it or not. So if someone plans on being the best, or writing that their character ended an era, they better have done their homework. As I'm sure more traversed players will be willing and able to poke holes in their limited knowledge.

Cuteness doodles are the best!

I remember RPing with a few people for an Immortal Flames mission. The guy who was "in charge" was a level 40 paladin with no other alts or classes leveled. As he kept barking out orders, I remember thinking to myself "Yeah right, I was at Cartenau. Where were you?" As the mission progressed, he began talking about how he was immediately chosen for leadership training when he joined up. I suppose it's possible...but yikes is that a stretch. All I kept thinking was "You just started 20 levels ago...how hard have you actually worked? Ever hear of Caravan...?" By the end of the mission I was in complete disbelief for what was even going on, no matter how hard the guy had prepared. So to answer the thread, yes I think it's important. Don't tell me you killed Bahamut unless you killed Bahamut. And don't tell me you're powerful until you've at least spent some time to make it believable to live such a claim.

Misuzu should be camped out somewhere in the snow this week. If you find yourself in need of a campfire and a warm drink, wander on up.

These are amazing! You gifted people with your art talents make me so jealous. I never progressed much past crayons... Thanks for sharing!

Balmung has a lot of EU Roleplayers. I myself work nights in NA, so my playtime is generally during EU peak hours. I've been amazed that I'm never without RP on our server when I wanted it. The hardest part for you though is going to be securing a spot on the server. There are various guides out there on when to try jumping on Balmung. But it has been harder and harder since Heavensward dropped. Luckily things seem to be settling down though. Good luck!

I love it when people respect me, not pet me...

Every FFXI veteran misses this bad boy!

These look great! Once again someone makes me wish I could draw more than stick figures
