Hey guys...school is starting up soon and I just wanted to see if you guys all had a good summer...and didn't play that game TOO much.
I went up to northern California (yosemite area) and stayed in a house on a lake for a little over a week. Went wakeboarding and we had a couple of wave runners...it was pretty sweet. I've been spending time with the GF and my old friends over here and I worked at my sister's new house to make some money. Overall I've had a pretty good summer. I fly back next Saturday, but I'm looking forward to starting college back up. Core, Omni, Baha...you'll love it.
Give me an update on who is what level/job, who took mine and baudan's place as the uberest of uber, who quit, etc etc. Any cool changes to the game? I miss you guys and I miss the game. I get so bored sometimes while my GF is at work and end up playing fuckin diablo 2..WOW.
Let me know what's up guys.

heh, I just got back from 2 weeks out at Myrtle Beach, which was nice. I havn't really done anything at all in FFXI over the past few months, but I have been playing. Now that I am back from vacation, and seeing that Drg is a job in desperation, I'm gunna try Whm/Smn. I'll never be a therefused  I've got a g/f now, and our local arcade has DDR, and with college and such goin on, I wont be so obsessive over FFXI as I once was, but I have no plans on quitting. I just need to keep R/L in check. Baudan has been on, as well. The linkshell is still growing, getting memebers all the time. (No n00bs, though) My jobs atm: 60drg (was 61 for a short time >.>) 30 whm, 30 Sam... 17pld, 6rdm |

70 rng here.. good times. life sucks right now cuz all my friends are out of town save 1 or 2 that work evenings (while i work daytime) so i'm online way too much. school's about to start now and i'm beginning to think I won't have time for the game at all, considering everything I end up doin in the game takes several hours to complete (i.e. god runs, trigger runs, dynamis, even exp parties)....

I've been quite busy, and my apologies for the website troubles, they were beyond my control. I don't know how much time college is going to take from my life, don't know how much free time I'll have. Anyway, What I've been up to: First it was a math course I was required to pass as part of my acceptance into the college. Then it was vacation, and after vacation I spent my last few days chilling with friends before I moved off to college. I moved up here (Alfred, NY) wednesday, and classes started today. If I find I have a lot of free time I may begin playing FFXI again, but I dunno. Before I will admit my parents were paying for FFXI. NOw I don't know if they're still paying- it's been that long since I've logged on. If they arn't I gotta pull money outta my ass because I'm looking at a total of $1000 in school supplies. *Burns down all publishing companies for releasing new editions of books that teachers want* |

My books alone ~$700 lol...$250 for voyage calculator and not to mention all of the rest of the bullshit you need. You guys should really drop the game before college starts. It's not a good idea to keep it up...trust someone who fucked up his grades cuz of ffxi |

you did, not us. Dont ruin our fun. I got A+'s college scholarships and managed to nearly match your level and rank. held down a job, friends i did it all. Lol, just cause you couldnt hold it together doesnt mean we have to quit for sorrow over you... i personally managed $2000 in scholarships after all my payments, i only had to pay for $400 books. This is my first year in college so everything should go smoothly, one online class, and 2 others macro economics and buisness ethical regulatory such and such crap. i'll have plenty free time, so now ill need to kill that fun time with a job, but nothing more then $60 a month for car insurance lol... leaving FFXI time and friend hanging out. So my life is going good too bad i lost a few friends do to changes in our lives, some moved, some couldnt change, some were held down by others.. life sucks sometimes. |

[snapback]1294[/snapback] I congradulate you, Niko and you're probably a very intelligent person, but some of us, if not most, have trouble balancing so many resposibilities. I promise to play FFXI to the very end, whenever that may be. But When my life suffers due to this game, then I know it's the end. I just hope it's no time soon. |

It's interesting, I'm not quite so concerned now that I think about it of FFXI being replaced by schoolwork and such... I'm more concerned of when Halo 2 comes out I won't have time for FFXI (or schoolwork but thats another story) ......

[snapback]1294[/snapback] Wow I congratulate you. Some people just never change. You are an asshole niko. Plain and simple. I'm not trying to ruin anyone's fun. "...just cause you couldnt hold it together doesnt mean we have to quit for sorrow over you..." What the fuck man. Yea I got all As in high school, I got a $32,000 scholarship, and I got recruited to play college lacrosse. What's your fucking point. College is different. Despite what you may think, moron, taking time to play a game takes time away from other things you could be doing in real life. Not playing this game during your first year at college would be better than playing the game. I said it as a little helpful suggestion to all of the people on this board that are about to start their first year. I think everyone can attest to their first year being potentially better without playing the game. And where does this "sorrow" bullshit come from? Here... How about this: Suck my dick. There were a lot more bigger things affecting my grades than this game. Don't talk to me about not being able to hold it together when you have no idea what the fuck you are talking about. My life is better without this game. Go to hell, niko. |

[snapback]1294[/snapback] Don't really mean to bash on you, but College is much different than HS. I've heard of plenty of A+ HS kids who flunk out of College. |

Yeah in college its not a question of "do your homework or play the game" its a question of "go to class or play the game" ... two entirely different things... and then you throw in "get drunk or play the game" and "go out and party or play the game" ... it goes on and on. I'll give you one thing though: the game is a lot cheaper -.-

fine lable me an asshole. Fits me well. Going to class? not a problem. /laugh classes im taking are a joke. Most law abide classes lol.
Either way, i really don't care who plays or doesn't. It's a stress reliever to me, hang with friends what not. I dont drink or go to bars, (legal age thing and my own views) so im not about to piss $40 there.
If you really have to make a choice between "go to class or play the game" then honestly this game isnt or you. No game on this earth should interfior with anything that important.
also aye high school is 100% different then high school, i knew that long before enduring it.
Theref: lick my nuts. better yet tea bag em. Honestly, if you had the problem in the first place with the game interfering with your social life to that big of an extent? thats a problem. I'm glad you quit then. Cause it must have been more to a game at that point.

Wow...learn what tea bagging is before you use it in a phrase, lol. Honestly, if you had the problem in the first place with the game interfering with your social life to that big of an extent? Here we go again. If you take a shitload of time and spend it on that game, then obviously it's affecting your social life whether you believe it or not. It doesn't just take days or weeks to get to the 60+ level range and a high rank (unless you play 24/7). You have spent a good 30+ days on that game (720+ hours) at LEAST. And in that time, I'm sure there was something else to be done that you didn't do. I did become addicted to the game, but nowhere near as bad as quish  j/p I basically didn't like the fact that there were chances to be doing other things, RL things that make life more enjoyable. Stop making it sound like I said "this game was my life and it's all that I ever fuckin did." Why don't you just drop your asshole-ish attitude about the situation and mind your own god damned business? Sounds good to me. Anyways...ignoring the asshole. How were your first few days at college, core? Are you in school yet omni? When do all of you guys go back that aren't already on campus? And wtf doesn't baha ever post on the boards? Kick him in the nuts for me. |

Kick him in the nuts for me. [snapback]1310[/snapback] Things are going good here so far, enjoying the college life. No roomate yet, which is cool. Classes started monday, and most of them seem pretty cool. Nothing too exciting has been going on with me though. Bahu does need a kick in the nuts. He's discovered this thing called "girls" and he thinks he has to be with them 24/7... or something like that. Anyway, yeah, omni- kick him hard. |
