I'm in love with female style 23! :love: It also looks like female 16 has overtaken 21 right now, too. I'd much prefer to see 16 over 21 in-game (even though I doubt I would use either) so I hope it stays that way! I will mourn for you until the end of days female 23. :cry: (Also I too would like a few more short & simple cuts for the males!)

I think the server locks are due to how many people are logged in at any one time. Which is awkward, as I think a lot of people stay logged in with the afk tab while they sleep. @_@' I've never seen Balmung locked for so long. The recent release of 2.4 is likely the cause, as it's the first weekend post-patch. Still, for a server to be locked all around the clock is pretty crazy. It wasn't this severe at launch, there were still slots you could sneak in! Fingers crossed it opens up for a brief spell for you to nab a character. I'm trying to get a new character made as well, have been for the past two days! :frustrated:

Foxberry! Thank you SO much! I actually squealed in real life when I saw it, hahaha. It's perfect! You captured her hair so well, her eyes are gorgeous and I absolutely adore the expression! Thank you so so so SO much! You have no idea how happy I am with it. I love it!

Yeah, what Kaoru said! Sorry if I wasn't clear. It's how the game handles internet connections, basically. Tweaking graphics and such won't 'fix' it. The only 'fix' is a faster/more reliable internet connection, as far as I'm aware. It'll probably get better when the servers calm down and there isn't hundreds of people running around in each zone causing so much data to go back and forth, though! At least that's my hope.

I think this is just a result of latency. You could see something similar in XI if your connection was quite bad, and it just seems to be how SE handles it. Instead of seeing others teleport due to bad latency, in XIV they just seem to stop and then when it catches up the server shows them running at a crazy speed. As I'm playing from China on the NA servers, on a bad day all I see is this to extreme lengths. On a good day it's there but only slightly, so I don't really notice it. I have no idea how you can go about fixing it, though.

I found this from the Square Enix Support site. So unfortunately if you paid before January 2012 I don't think they counted towards Legacy status. Fingers crossed everything goes super smooth from Tuesday though, so you can get in without issue and get everything to work right away!

Players who have paid subscription fees for a total of over 90 days since January 6th, 2012 will be given the following perks. ※This is not over 90 consecutive days of subscription, but rather over 90 total days of subscription. 1. Players can continue to play FFXIV post-2.0 for the legacy price. 2. Players will receive a special chocobo when FFXIV 2.0 officially launches. 3. Players can request to have their names places in the FFXIV 2.0 credits. "

I believe Legacy status was only available if you paid for three months after the F2P period. It was the reward for people supporting them after they began charging for the game once again. So I don't think you're actually classed as Legacy, I'm afraid. Every 1.0 character gets the tattoo, though! So that's why you have that.

Again, the only word I can think of to describe this is stunning. Your work is so neat and detailed it just really stands out to me. I can't wait to see the next piece! And the next one. And the next one... Seriously, keep them coming! I absolutely adore this style and it's clear I'm not the only one!

Another stunning piece that just really shows how amazing your style is. You have a wonderful gift! I'm always grinning when I see this post updated so that I get to see more of your stuff! These portraits are seriously amazing.

Hi there! Welcome to the RPC! Hope you enjoy your time here, it's a great community to become a part of I have to say! I can totally relate about XI destroying years of my life. Darned game took them from me without asking! (I kid. I totally gave them willingly. Oh, sweet memories...) As for being new to RP in MMOs, don't fret! Everyone is new at some point, and I'm sure everyone will be happy to help you along if you have any questions. If you ever see me running about feel free to send me a /tell or start up some RP! I'm always up for some or a chat. Hope you enjoy your time here!

E is for Exdeath! Also known as X-Death, ExDeath and Exodus! It totally counts!

Welcome to the RPC! Hope you settle in well and enjoy your time here! I know I've been having a blast so far. The community is really welcoming and enjoyable to chat to! I'm sure I'll see you around on Balmung at some point. If you see me running around, don't be shy! Always up for a chat or some RP!

Perfect timing! I finish work at 4.50pm on the Saturday and servers go up at 5pm! ...Fingers crossed I can get home within 10 minutes. Maybe I'll take a taxi. :blush:

Garuda's theme is absolutely stunning. And she looks terrifying. I'm very excited for that fight. I was watching the Titan fight earlier and I see myself panicking so much during that fight with that soundtrack. I have a feeling Alexis will get knocked off the platform a few times before I get the hang of it. >_>
