- Finally having gil for the most important piece of your shiny new equipment set...and the AH being out of it. In all 3 cities. >.<

- Farming with a mule and getting yelled at for doing so. (Actually, that was more of a WTF? than anything else.)

- Farming in general. Yes, it's honest gil, and I honestly don't mind it, but sometimes it's boring.

Anything else?

I love delevelling, man. I've seen level 60 so many times you'd think I've been levelling eight different jobs.

The fact that Dragoon has had its reputation smashed into itty bitty pieces. A great f-ing job that gets treated like it's useless.

Having mining, logging or harvesting (yes this has happened to me) points stolen. Wtf.

The rdm/brd rivalry. One of each in a party is an exp feast, if they get along.

People with a false sense of absolute omniscience in parties. You know the guy, you get him in Jeuno and he begins to lord it over everyone; go here to exp, use this equipment, these spells in this order. As if everyone else hasn't leveled up to that point, and he's in a party full of bought accounts as a Mentor. ;)

The fact that it takes one hour of farming for every 2000 exp or so. Ew. ; ;

That's it for me, anyway, lol

-I'm sure many of you have experienced this one: JUST missing the airship to your desired destination. There's nothing like watching the ship leave the port as you realize you have to spend 10 minutes sitting down doing nothing XD.

-Going in to fight Shiva on your SMN solo, and forgetting to enter the capped fight... It was very traumatic getting whopped by her for around 500-600 damage while I'm level 19 ^^;

-You know when you run and think you've fully stopped, then begin casting a spell, and about 3/4 into it, it gets interrupted even though you're POSITIVE that you were standing still... Yea, that's one of the worst >.<

I'll think of more things that suck soon =:D

Not being able to find a BCNM40 party because you don't have an LS. :\

Things that suck:

Saying, "Oh sweet I have 6 hours to play today, maybe I can get a level and finish G2" Then you end up sitting around and you log after an hour and go play KOTOR lol.

Getting the sudden urge to quit FFXI, I've had lots of them heh.

Killing bogy's in Valkurm to try and help, and someone walks by when your fighting one and blames you for getting them cursed. (yeah it really happened to me -_-)

Being called a n00b. Come on people.. Its been used so much it really doesn't mean anything anymore.

Thats all I have.

"The fact that it takes one hour of farming for every 2000 exp or so. Ew. ; ; "

Ew is right!!! if people are paying attention 4-5k an hour or even 6,7 or more (5rng/nin and a RDM= sickening exp) is not unachievable!!!

Eww eww ew!.

things that suck, getting invite to "great" party stringing together 120-140 point kills for 3 chains and thinking that they are living the good life, and unwilling to move.

Having a crafting skill in excess of the cap for the synth not mattering one bit.

people who ruin fuidama repeatedly by flipping the mob 90 degrees .5 seconds before you connect.

NO chocobo whistles for instant ride, same vein no chocobo breeding!!!

2 new gobbiebag quests good, no new mog expansion BAD.

NO NEW CoP JOBS!!! I only have one job left at one!!

the new ah fee structure.

I've realized one more that really ought to be here: the words "Unable to cast spells at this time." and "Your casting is interrupted."

o.O

Synapsis, what large rodent crawled into your underwear and died?
Your reading comprehension is rotten, I was talking about the cost of leveling, not 2k exp an hour, you dolt.

Incidentally, I don't think the original intention was for the thread to serve as your personal ego condom either.

I don't like ugly, mean little people climbing up on me, so you better get your lily white butt back down there where it belongs. I don't think you're impressing a fraction of the people that you think you are. You're a contemptuous, poison-mean social nitwit, and this isn't the first time I've seen evidence of it.

Do you really want to add me to your long, long list of enemies?

If so, I'd be happy to give your ah fee structure an overhaul for you, as well as your literacy skills if you'll work with me on it.


It appears Synapsis isn't the only one with a large dead rodent in his underwear. Christ almighty people, the hate on this board is ********* I'm just about done with this place, time to let the membership lapse I think, if this is all we've been reduced to.

Edit: Bored <> Board Smiley: blush

Well, I apologize for losing my temper, but I wasn't much expecting that when I posted my reply to the thread.
#19 Jan 11 2005 at 10:35 AM Rating: Good
I guess I don't see where he was climbing on you, but maybe I'm not comprehending either.

Seems to me like he was commiserating with you at the mis-understood 2k xp per hour, and was saying that a RDM in a all RNG/NIN party would rock (hence a compliment to RDM's). Then again I could be way off too.

Either way I wasn't asking for an apology, you're more than entitled to your opinion, I just think our board in general lately has become a flame fest (and there aren't any innocents in that, we're all guilty). It's just a shame really, we had a nice thing going here, sad to see it end.

Things that suck:

- Karma whiners.
- People who digitally glue their lips to people's asses. Especially when hordes of people do it to one person.
- People who get off on being cruel/mean.
- People who drag threads/conversations horribly off track then get pissy when you try to direct them back to the topic at hand.
- People who are 65+ that still send me invites by sending me a tell saying {Party}^^? Dumbass invites you to his/her/a party. Or people who get pissy when I ask details about a party. I don't care if you and I are the only people so far, at least have the balls to tell me.
- People who like to say my job is easy. I could generalize you melee and say the same. "All you have to do is hit attack and hit your WS macro at the right time. That's easy."
- The same melee who say my job is easy and then miss their WSs. Repeatedly.
- Ninjas that don't use ninjitsu other than Utsusemi.

-Mages who have never played any melee job past 30 talking about how their job is so much harder, better, etc (and vice versa)

-People whom will defend people in thier LS, no matter how absolutely retarded they are, just because they have the same colored pearl.

-BTW Theo I have 118 days as of today, I feel ya

-Mutha Fockers who crank their Pyramid speaker ridden stereo that-they-bought-from-the-flee-market at a stop light next to you, and they think they have sweet bass, even though it sounds like a bunch of pissed off bees are in their trunk.

-Carneys, for real

-Girls who would think someone like Charles Manson was a nice guy, if he like, held the door open for them or something.

-People who sit in one small area while farming, somehow being their so long that they become dillusional and think they own the place. And if something like really important like a Thread Leech pops near you they run over and Provoke it like it's a friggin' NM *ahem Xjam*

-Pick-up parties who say "Let's go to GC? CN? No, not all of us have Altep GC..."

-People who write "lol" after EVERY sentence, like they just sit there like they are jolly fu[b][/b]ckin' Santa Clause all day chuckling constantly.

-People who make a 4 line /shout in Jeuno for help, and hit it every 15 secs like they made a macro. Alright buddy, as soon as I feel the need to help you camp your coffer in Ifrit's Cauldron, I'll be the first to let you know. Now STFU.

Ah well, I guess I didn't actually participate in this thread so I will do so now:

-Majin Gakure (When it's used on you Smiley: yikes)

-Castle Oz (Whole darn place sucks IMO ^^)

-Arcana Breaker (Expected a lot more out of this club Smiley: banghead)

-Leveling Alchemy, specifically the brick wall you hit post 50ish in any craft

Edit: ROFL Garan, soo true on the HELM stuff...makes you want to chuck your pickaxes, set fire to your mining gear and run into a lake of gasoline.
