Here is a list of the linkshells and free companies for Gilgamesh. http://ffxiv-roleplayers.com/forumdisplay.php?fid=15&filtertf_srvr=Gilgamesh And as far as learning the ropes feel free to ask any and all questions you'd like. Welcome to Gilgamesh! We certainly hope you enjoy your time with us!

Happy that you are with us welcome!

Both servers can use this right now

Amaare is 33 years old, he's supposed to be a bit wiser and more mature overall and more seasoned and experienced. He's been around, know's what he is talking about and is very much an old soul.

Welcome to the game and the site sir! Its nice to see a Hellsguard! (I have to make my own)

I'm a late night player myself during the week so just send me a tell. And yo can't go wrong with the areas mentioned for rp.

There is now a third channel, Coalition OOC A FC and LS leaders please be sure to get a place in the channel so you can recruit from it. Alts are not allowed at all. Please be considerate and leave spaces for those who will be maining with us. Now why are the channels named as they are? Coalition OOC, OOC 1 and OOC A? Because there is no first, second or third place. All are equal and all are first *winks*.

*crickets* Anyone willing to contribute anything for prizes?

Welcome to the site, wherever you end up I know you will be happy.

Ladies and gentlemen please if you have hardly played alts give a tell to Luluni Luni and move them to the created channel for alts to make room for others.

Game is back up for anyone who is waiting to get back on

Alright alright I need prizes to get this done. I have a baby bun that I am going to put up for a prize. Anyone else got anything that they won't miss? again this is a for fun event.

If you decide to join us after transfers are opened up you are more than welcome

On Gilga private chat only rp is highly discouraged as the main way to rp. While we have our fair share of ic channels these are more for rp while leveling. We are attracting enough rpers to draw in groups who never met icly or oocly. Clique rp is also frowned upon. If you ever see Amaare just walking around approach him he will talk to anyone! We are also up to three packed ooc shells

Welcome to the site love I'm sure you will have a lot of fun and make a lot of new rp friends! Feel free to ask any questions!

Welcome to the site if you need anything just ask!

Just wanted to thank everyone so far who has helped in making Gilgamesh the success that its been so far. We have definitely overcome the so called impossible and came out the gate swinging. Our first series of events, the Beach Parties and the Moonfire Play Event were both successes! Thanks everyone who came out to both events! Soon we will have upcoming events held by Erosskye, Morelle Noire and Saefinn! Be sure to keep an eye out on on these events! If you yourself want to do an event well get it started! Get those rp Free Companies and Linkshells listed! We are still in great need of more rp FC's and LS's, especially ones that embrace medium and heavy public roleplay! Things are coming along and welcome to those that are joining us everyday! Our success proves that open mindedness even in the face of absolutely terrible (and unfounded) stereotypes will win the day! Thanks to our Reddit, 4chan and other community roleplayers for stepping up to the plate and proving that it doesn't and should not matter which community you are from, But that as long as you are a roleplayer that is all that should matter! Lets continue to prove this point! Bravo folks! Lets keep the momentum going! From those who were here in the beginning to those who are joining us even today. Gilgamesh is a solid proven success because of all of you. Continue to get those characters, concepts and rp groups up on these pages! If you need any help please just send me a pm as my door is always open. You should all be proud! Thank you!

Thank you, Rock I did make a Miqo'te over in Gilgamesh today. I'll be doing a shout. The names Eskri Dibujo on there. Gotcha I'll do my best to locate you when I'm on to get you into one of the three networking linkshells on the server.

I think you are heavy personally. And where have you been?

You will be more than welcome with us!

Welcome to the site!

Welcome!

Wonderful, there may be a screening event depending on the amount of models.

Well then why didn't you say so! lol You are more than welcome the help as this is still in the planning stages and we do need models! Sure she's new and well...Image below. I'd like to think she's very unique looking! You can contact me in game @ Yavela Touchstone! She has darker skin, with green eyes and her hair is like a darker brown with purple in it. A bit different I hope. Soon to be a black mage. Not really sure yet what is offered for disciples of magic yet, but we'll see. The last image is her saying please hire me!! *crosses his arms* Ahem, where is the pink, that is very unlike you miss *winks playfully* Beautiful character by the way. Its nice to see more Hyur women *frowns playfully at all the Nekos* *bows Thank you, seriously Actually I did make a pink cat *is guilty* but not as my main. And the lip side color is actually purple Looks pink in picture but if you go up really close, it's all purple. Though it meshed with the whole "Dark mage" look. And I think Hyur woman are probably the most complex in the game with more hairstyles, I'd love to see more about as well! Hope many Rogedlyn women participate in this! <3 I'm hoping we get a few. Also due to my work schedule I'm on late a lot if any one who is interested doesn't see me on just send a pm to Luluni Luni about this as she might be easier to get to than myself during the week. Fridays and Saturdays I'm usually easier to reach during normal hours (I'm a late night player)

With respect, you didn't (and yes, I did read the whole post; I assume in good faith that you're not skimming my posts, please don't assume I'm skimming yours). You advised the targets of this -- let's be frank -- prejudice that they should elide parts of their gameplay history and misrepresent themselves to eliminate themselves as a target for that prejudice. That's not combating prejudice; that's becoming complicit in it to one's personal benefit. Yes, you're combating its effects on you, but you're not actually affecting the underlying misconception that's the source of the problem. While a player may certainly do whatever they wish, telling someone how to become part of the system isn't really telling people how to combat that system. At any rate, I maintain that the opinion that "lots of MMOs played = flighty, poor RPer" is based on a flawed assumption, and I think that those who hold to it will ultimately find themselves marginalized in the vast sea of new players -- what I already predicted would happen and why I advocated (and continue to advocate) new players come to Balmung. The "big names" of the past will give way to the "big names" of the present and future, and if those who were once active here want to RP with new players, they'll need to make the next move and engage, putting aside their prejudices and misconceptions. The "big names" are now the minority. To new players: there's lots of mentors, lots of new groups, and lots of RPers out there. You can safely choose not to engage with those who would prefer not to engage with you. My advice is rather different from Kylin's. My advice is to be open about who you are, what you've done, and how you like to RP, then be willing to take that first step and connect with a mentor, start a thread asking for people to RP with, apply to an LS or FC, or even just drop a tell to someone you think has an interesting character and set up a scene. While I agree with some of his perspective, I think the advice about play history is deeply flawed, and I would submit that you wouldn't want to RP with anyone who holds that stance anyway. Thank god you jumped in here. Seriously thank god. And honestly thank you all for the good advice you mentioned. I will touch on one thing though mentioned I filled the linkshells I managed by "walkers" Why? Because I send them a tell when I see them walking asking them if they are an rper. It takes no time to do this and worst case scenario the worst you will get is "no". A lot of times "walkers" who rp want to get noticed. Its why they are walking in the first place. I know its why I do it. I've been playing and rping in mmos since the late nineties. So I think I'm a pretty good authority on what rpers do and don't do and the packed numbers on the ooc linkshells that I manage give credence to this. Not to mention we have a booming rp community now on the server full of Redditers, 4channers and Blue garter folks and we have ALOT of them in our linkshells rping right along with us. So I think I know what I'm talking about when it comes to community building. Especially in a place where the so called impossible is now possible. Either way if anyone decides to come to Gilgamesh just send me a tell in game or send me a pm here if you are shy. I rp with everyone and anyone so feel free to bother me if you see my character walking around. I do it so you know you can approach me, I can also point you in the right direction for contacts and rp friends and the like. Coming into a new community is hard enough, but its my honest to god job to make sure that its a good and smooth transition for everyone who joins us so please please feel free to hit me up and ask anything that you want. Besides experience beats everything, that's what my long list of rping in mmos got me and I wouldn't trade that in for anything. :thumbsup:
