I always like the idea of a PC police force type of guild, but they usually fall short without a constant threat to deal with. Though it is always fun to see them throw out rowdy people from taverns and even jail people . I remember in GW2 there was a police force guild and when one of the PC politicians were murdered they were looking into who did it. One of the guards who got too close to the truth was also murdered. It was pretty exciting to see it unfold and plus I had a character who was connected to the police guy who was murdered (mostly just using him as an informant to keep a one up on things going on) who became really upset that she lost her one of her best connections; so my character also got involved in the whole mess. I was not around when the whole thing was resolved, but it was fun to see it all unfold and how they went around trying to gather clues and questioning people. I wish you luck in your endeavor!

"You think being a Pugilist is a game, boy!? I'll show you!" . I usually kind of stick to one thing for my character just because FF is the only game I have played that has allowed you to play all classes on one character. This time around I will have my main starting off as a PGL who may later learn to master the art and become a MNK, but she is also a bit handy with a sword and can take a punch really well so she may end up becoming PLD in the long run instead. I am kind of leaving it as a IC type of thing. If she finds people and friends to protect she will likely become a PLD, but if she kind of remains the way she is, selfish and keeping no close friends, she will likely go MNK. I personally think it would be okay to know your way around the classes being handy with a few different weapons and maybe knowing some magic, but really only able to master one or two of those jobs. As I think actually mastering something definitely takes awhile and given as many jobs there are it your character would have to be pretty old or a savant to master even 50% of them in a life time, at least from my point of view. Plus juggling all those skills and keeping yourself adept in all of them would be pretty difficult. Just like math classes from college/high school, if you don't use it, you lose it.

Torn Sky's model is one of my most favorite looking Roe's out there. Even better than mine :cry:. I will just have to punch her face so that I win by comparison

Rue pretty much hit the hammer on the head. The new members in the Legacy server far outweigh the number of older members. A lot of people are Legacy, like myself, who barely touched the game because it was so awful in 1.0. I personally came from Masamune server and didn't RP in 1.0

I never went all out on tattoo's because they are so expensive. I do have a bit of a half sleeve. As far as piercings go I have snake bites and got my tongue pierced 11 years ago when I was 16. What happened to people doing tongue piercings? lol I have to take all of my piercings out though once I start my MRI training and I can't get any new ink because when you are getting tattooed small pieces of metal sometimes get into your skin. With the giant magnet on it actually rips open little holes in your skin as it tears the tiny pieces of metal out...so yeah. I have to take everything out.

Ahahaha another great addition to your ongoing series . The end was depressing and funny at the same time. Is Loki dcing in the group picture? lol

Hahaha. I don't think I have much leader blood in me, but once things start to settle down I might be up for something like this. I think people would be more prone to join in on this with an alt maybe. I have been thinking about parading through the streets to try to recruit people IC to the possible cult. I just need to dig up more lore information on the Twelve before I try and also try to find a way to pervert the message of the Twelve, as most cults do. I think it would be nice to have a kind of PC Lambs of Dalamud type group going around putting on a facade of being a generous group of worshipers, but secretly kidnapping and doing weird stuff behind the scenes. I'll definitely keep you updated if I do end up getting this ball rolling ^^.

I have really been trying to make a villain as I think PC villains are much much better than NPC. I would really love to see villainy committed on a large scale community level. Like various groups of villains or a large cult or something. The cult idea is kind of a favorite of mine right now as I think during times of disaster there are always people who spring up and prey on the weak during their time of need. I hope this thread flushes out a few of these villains or people interested in taking that route as I would love to discuss things and get together on this idea :evil:

All I know is what is listed on the FFXIV website states that Elezens have slightly longer lifespans than Hyurs. As far as Miqo'te or any other race for that matter there has been no data, as far as I know, that gives an average life span. I have to agree with Aysun. It would be weird if Lalla's had large lifespans as they are described as being very agile which would require a faster metabolism. Usually the faster your metabolism, the shorter your lifespan. But that is kind of like trying to explain magic in a video game or how something as large as King Behemoth can find enough food to sustain its massive body.

I actually like this idea and I am not in any of these guilds .

Yay, more refugees from the GW2 community . Welcome! I would not be too concerned about the error. I am pretty sure that SE knows what happened and what went wrong. Plus I don't think they were expecting so many people to log in, which I can totally understand. I was quite surprised when all the Legacy servers started filling up. I am with Rock on this one. They implemented a fix this morning and I am sure the servers won't be as crowded as they were. There are a decent amount of people who only play F2P games and don't like the idea of a sub so they will not be joining us at launch. I personally have had it up to here with cash shops and pay to win games. All you have to do is sacrifice one going out to eat trip a month to afford a well paid staff that will give you more frequent and larger updates that concentrate on content instead of how to reach into your pocket book. Some people don't like that model for some odd reason. Aaaaaannnnddd rant over 8-)

need one of these but with 90000 instead of/ in addition to 3102 (*they never did fix 90000) Ask and you shall receive, my child...

Damn, I should have taken a screenshot of Felix in the leather guild when I had the chance >.o

Pancakes. Pancakes and orange juice, fed to me by the culprit of this heinous act of villainy.

Ooooh. I am sorry. I am sleepy. Been up all day and night playing >.> Legacy is a special title given to people who supported the game (paid for it) for 3 months when they were charging a monthly fee. Just because you played 1.0 does not make someone a Legacy account holder. Now I am not sure how they are handling things in beta, but Legacy account holders are allowed to make something like 6 alts per server at no additional charge, while all others will incur a small fee with the extra characters. I don't know if it's a flat fee increase or a fee per character thing. Can't recall.

Saw you shouting in Thanalan earlier today. I like the name ^^. One of your members also poked me and gave me cooties, I would like compensation :3

You can only have one character per world in the Beta unless you're Legacy. Erase any other characters on Balmung and try again. If it still doesn't work, restart the game. Same thing happened to me. Isn;t legacy only for people who played 1.0, I know some people who can make multiple char and never played it before No, if you read the message at the top of the website you will see that is for all characters, new and old.

I would not get too discouraged just yet. Open beta will bring out the crazies and the trolls.

I think you have to had completed the original story quest from 1.0 I am a 1.0 player and Legacy status and also didn't get the opening, but I barely touched the main quest back then.

You have to just keep trying. Took me a few times. Also if the NA servers does not pop up for you, you have to relog and try again. It's kind of a pain and would suggest just logging in tomorrow. They are going to free up this strict server thing in an hour or two anyway (according to their blog post) Edit: Also if the start button doesn't come up for you just relog.

Yeah, looks like leveling will be a lot less of a grind than in 1.0 (and FFXI). But you can always get every job to level 50! I usually stop playing games when I get to the level cap, but I'm actually making an effort to make friends so I hope I'll have folks to do endgame content with. Hahahaha, yeah I have a fear of getting to end game for the very same reason. I honestly think that the reason why I played XI on and off for 6 years was because it took me 2 years to get my first level 75 job lol. Maybe we can both keep poking each other to keep the other in the game once we hit 50 :thumbsup:

Ha, sleep! Many have tried taking a nap today and almost all have failed. God speed brave one, god speed. +1 for booze -1 for whiskey

Very nice! Once you start taking orders again I may have to pool some money together and poke ya ^^.

They are so small ; ; I want to see them.

That is kind of how I feel as well. I mean I did do a ton of work. I remember when crafting was a huge chore and I sat for 3 days straight like 5hrs a day doing nothing but crafting down a bunch of sheep and buffalo skins I had. Those kind of memories kind of pains me to think about starting over, but seeing as they are stream lining leveling I try not to worry much about it. Plus seeing as I had everything 30+ I would probably hit 50 pretty quickly and don't want to hit 50 so soon with nothing but end game dungeons to run.
