  • I think the title of this theard should have been: "Buy a second account,  get triple XP, a zebra mount,  and free levels".  This promotion is obviously trying to get people to buy a second or third account.  And as for the timing,  the new expans…

  • It's not the drug dealer's fault that you're a crack head.  It's not McDonald's fault that you're fat.  And it's not NCsoft's fault that you cant pay your bills because you want to impress your guild w/ your new set of armor. I was addicted to FFX…
  • I too was looking at this same system.  In your opinion (anyone who knows more about pcs than me....  so anyone really) how long would this system hold up to new mmos?  For instance if a high end mmo came out in say 4 years,  would i still be able t…
  • No...  definately not gonna play the game for profit...  that's what my JOB is for.  Just making sure that the sanctioned rmt is only on two servers.   And no i'm not naive,  i know that there is just as much,  if not more of it on the servers that …
  • Playing FFXI camping NMs is far from exciting,  but my heart always starts racing when i see it up on Widescan and there's a mad dash to claim.  Usually lasts til the mob dies and the item doesn't drop . _  .   
  • *Looks over his shoulder to see if he has time to reply before the boss gets back* What i meant by "playing the game it was meant to be played" is not buying currency.  That's it.  If they wanted people to buy it they would sell it themselves.  I …
  • I think pepole forget that mmos are businesses,  and the purpose of any business is to make as much money as possible.   To be completely honest,  i cant believe that more companies haven't followed the cookie cutter success of WoW.  Maybe the games…
  • I've never really seen currency buyers as people who get tired of grinding away and farming.  I'm sure there are some like that,  who have done the same thing over and over so many times they just "cheat".  However to me it seems that those people a…
  • Eve and WoW are the 2 mmos that i am currently subscribed to.    Neither is my favorite mmo,  but my life is rather busy right now and these games allow me to play w/o prioritzing them over anything important.  Eve allows me to train my skills while…
  • Thank you for all the responses.  I went ahead and copied my Eve folder and downloaded the 64mb patch into it.  It started up fine w/ the Revelations headline,  but it said my Username/Password was incorrect.  Oh well,  guess i'll just have to wait …
  • Can someone explain warp to zero?  I know how bookmarks work,  but not sure what is replacing them. 
  • 100+3 Goldsmithing in FFXI  (w/o ever purchasing gil from a website)  It has taken me over two years and hundreds of millions of (potential) gil to get there.  I farmed,  mined,  and grew 99% of the materials,  and when i finally dinged 100 i really…
  • Yes you have to work for EVERYTHING in ffxi.  Nothing is handed to you.  You start out with ten gil and a slap on the ass.  Those who welcome a good challenge will love it,  for people like the OP,  well,  there's always WoW.    
  • Originally posted by Ashkent hasn't this horse been beaten into a pair of shoes or a leather coat yet? a) it doesn't affect you so why get so upset over it? b) i think maybe you need a break from the mmo and need to go outside for a little bit. yo…
  • We don't have anything better to do.  We spend way too much time in fantasy worlds,  and when we're not playing them,  we're trolling forums about the games we're playing and the ones we're planning on playing next.  I think it's safe to say we'd al…
  • When FFXI came out in Japan it was PC only.  Then it was released everywhere else a couple years later on PC.  Five months after that It was released for PS2.  Now more than half of FFXI's population plays on PS2.  In a couple months it will be rele…
  • I think what you should do is find out how much IGE is paying this site for having their ad,  and then send this site a check for that amount of money each month/year.  I loathe RMT too,  but last time i checked you weren't paying a subscription to …
  • It's not nearly as bad as people make it out to be.  The price of EVERYTHING has increased.  In some cases the basic farmed and mined item's prices have multiplied more than the more expensive items.  Leaping Lizzy and the Emereror now drop RARE/EX …
  • If it makes any of you feel any better,  I like Eve and i'm not getting paid by anyone to say it.  It's not my favorite mmo,  but it is one of the few i am willing to pay for. Also the rating has been brought down to from 8.4 to 8.3.
