As it doesn't seem to be something many are interested in and I'll be a bit busy with another character and an involved Limsa story, I'm going to postpone/remove Daphine's classes.

 

That said, if a 'student' is in need of a mentor on a one-one basis, I'd be happy to answer the call as needed, just shoot me a message.

 

:D

It pains me to say this but I might actually miss today's class... for reasons that defy my comprehension, my download speed will not go over the 0.2-0.4mb/s, and the patch is over 2GBs big... I have contacted my ISP, but their speed test says my download speed is at 10mb/s. I don't think the client's servers is just cluttered, because I don't have download issues just there. I can't even watch videos on youtube.

 

I'll probably take the computer to a tech tomorrow and see if the fault's on my end, but I really haven't a clue.

Well, Kujh and Luc'a have been a part of every Lancer lesson Kiht has taught. It has almost become their plot, and I currently have no other students. So, if you can't make today, I will try tomorrow, if you can't make tomorrow, I will try Saturday, ect.

This wasn't really my intention, but I thank you for the support. Hopefully tomorrow should be fine for me. If there are others who are up for the course though, don't mind my absence. I will come up with some IC excuse to miss the class if it comes to that!

I was debating on holding classes every week or not.. just been having a bit of rough spot with my life so I didn't want to promise people something and not follow through with it. Though if folks want the classes more often let me know. Also I do apologize for the length of the first class and that it was derailed a little. I had lost track of my days and any planning I wanted to have done for it went out the window. >_<

 

Now besides that here is the next sign up sheet.. the times will be slightly later so maybe we won't start as late as we did. Though I was amused that everyone who signed up messaged me saying they were going to be late. :P

well if anything if the ones who want to carry through with training happen to miss a class they can message me. I don't mind make up classes or one on one training ^^ or if you want extra study time.. i stay logged in throughout the day, even with the afk tag up from time to time .. im the type who scrolls back through the logs to see if anyone needed something xD

I just want to apologize to everyone who was interested in the Botany classes. I haven't forgotten about them, but life has been throwing me a lot of curve-balls ever since I spoke up about running the classes (family stuff, then sick, then broken datacard, then an RP slump), and now I'm in the process of preparing for a major shift in my lifestyle. 

 

For the foreseeable future, I'm going to say that the classes will continue on Sundays at 2pm EST (as this seemed like the time frame that most people interested could attend), but I will not going to confirm the class actually happening until that morning before noontime. I'm sorry it'll be such short notice and I apologize if this inconveniences people, but with how hectic things are getting and how my energy is getting quickly sapped at times, it's the best I can do.

A little late announcing this but I'll be holding another MRD class tonight around 9:30pm EST. Presently there is only one person who signed up but if others want to go then by all means. I've been trying to work out a time that would be good to hold this class every other week. 

 

Starting place is the guild like last time.

Been so busy lately that the lesson slipped my mind.

 

Will Sunday at 4pm PST be fine for you Blue? I was not even going to bother with doodle since no one signs up other than Kujh and Luc'a. All my other students are from my FC, and they do not ever check this site.

 

I will of course take on new students if anyone is interested. Send me a PM, tell or post on this thread. If anyone requests a doodle, I will put one up.

That reminds me.

 

Pugilist Courses are hereby cancelled indefinitely due to a lack of interest/attendance/whatever, which has been waning ever since the first week.  

 

Instead, Sgt. Melkire will be offering weekly one-on-one pugilist lessons to anyone who remains interested in learning the ins and outs of beating the everlasting shite out of-- I mean, the ins and outs of unarmed close quarters combat. Yeah, that.

 

I can be reached via /tell in-game or a PM here on RPC.

 

Toodles!

 

(Doodles. Heh.)

Ah, I'd love to visit both PGL and LNC classes. I don't remember when exactly my sub expires as I've been making a conscious effort to not get on and begin grinding soldiery or anything though... I'll try to remember at least the LNC class. Shame about the PGL classes; Osric made a good teacher, even for someone as self-assured as Jana.

I think I'm going to say that marauder classes are canceled as well.  There was minimal interest in the first place and that dwindled to one person after. 

 

If anyone wants one on one instructions then by all means feel free to track me down.

Sure, that will work. Just send me a /tell if you don't see me on. I mess up with time zones often.

 

Anyroad, while I am relieved to no longer have to update the opening post, I am sincerely sorry for those who did offer their role as teaches and saw their classes unattended. I did personally show up at pretty much every first class of every faculty (with some exceptions due RL problems) to encourage these volunteers, and I was excited by how the project was well received. However, I cannot make numbers alone, and I certainly wasn't planning to offer this whole idea to have a bunch of personal trainers on myself.

 

Between lack of interest (a lot of people do not RP inexperienced characters or persons in need of training, that is understandable) or attendance (commitment can be a chore for both students and teachers alike) or cancelled classes or general misunderstandings, it is not too much of a shock to see people stepping away from it.

 

I just want to give a personal, fond thank you to all those who volunteered as teachers, as well to those who showed up to classes to encourage the teachers and give this experience a go. Maybe it did not end up making the guilds more popular, but I'm sure there were good memories for everyone, and who knows, maybe some little new bonds and plots were born out of this (Kujh'a's is the shiniest example of it. I wasn't RPing him anymore and now he has his own story).

 

I want to encourage people to make more of these projects and come up with more ideas for mini-events that do not require outrageous waiting time to be planned, because I think events are one of the best kinds of RP there can be in the open world. In fact, I can't really get myself to RP out of my linkshell anymore, unless it's an event...

 

Don't get me wrong, tea party RP or drinks time at the Quicksand is obviously appreciated by a multitude of players, so saying that it's a bad kind of roleplay would equal to beating a dead horse. This post is mostly towards those RPers who just can't seem to fully build their own characters around that kind of stuff, like myself and some friends I have.

 

All in all, you guys all are wonderful people, and I am certainly going to look up the thread for more events like these! :thumbsup:
