I'm that guy...you know, the one who bought FFXI on the first day of its release on the PS2. What was that....sometime March last year. My game time is somewhere over 30 days. Oh, and my signature is not wrong...here in lies the problem.

My highest job is 32 and everyone is passing me by at a rapid pace. I know this is a game to take at your own time, but I think I may be pushing that. I'm a 32 Warrior stuck in Rabao thinking about maybe, possibly joining a party one day. I have most of the expensive equipment...farming is a nice thing to do while you're at your boring job. So what is my hold up?

I dunno, maybe I need a kick in the rear. It's actually kinda embarassing. So I'm putting my shame out in the streets and hopefully, starting Tuesday, I'll actually make the 15+ bucks I spend monthly worth it like it used to be when I first began.

Sorry that there is nothing helpful or even somewhat entertaining in this. Kinda selfish of me....maybe I'll throw a corny joke in for the helluvit....

"A mushroom walks into a bar, says 'Howabouta beer?'. Bartender says, 'Sorry, we don't serve mushrooms here'. Mushroom looks angrily and says, 'Why not? I'm a fungi'."

Yeah...well now I'm sorry for that too.

You'll most likely get an invite faster looking in Jeuno instead of the middle of no where. :\

hey there, ive had it since ps2 version came out also, my advise, level 1 job and only 1 job for a good month or 2. then you will notice that youve experienced a part of the game that u didn't think was in this game. cause lvl 32?? is still basically noobville very much.

Hell I was in Garlaige citadel in June, lol

anyways whats my point , i dont know. but listen to me as I have a monster **** <[[[[[[[[

Yeah, I just came out here to get my crystal in case I got an invite to the desert. I've just been a little lazy and haven't moved from my spot in...oh...2 weeks.

Getting a party is not so much the problem, it's more my being patient and sitting down for a few hours to play. I definately have the free time unfortunately. Just time to use it.

Or you could ask within your LS. :-b I have a 31THF and 31WAR. Speck has a 31RNG and a 32BLM. We actually have quite a few people in that level range. I'm sure you have multiple LS's as I rarely see you on, but it never hurts to ask for a party internally. I generally ask the LS before I level anyways because sometime's I prefer to party with people I know.

You'll get there, just be patient. :-)

Leet, nope, I love BladeSingers and it's my only Linkshell. You haven't seen me because I haven't really been on much lately...I used to play non stop. But I was always farming because I wanted the best equipment. Then a few friends joined up late last year, and I spent all my time and money helping them out. Then MGS3 and RE4 and excuse after excuse. But now I'm ready.

Now I just need a kick in the butt. I see all the stories people are telling and I get anxious. Time to actually put my flag up and start moving. The only problem I have with getting a party really is actually accepting an invite.

So look out FFXI...here I come. I'll be the guy leveling up my main job with your 5th side job ^^.

HEY NOW! I hear you! Ive had the game on PC for oh.. say 10 mos now. Everyone I started with are 60+ or working on extra sub jobs... or.. something. Me, I finally made it to lvl 45 after being lvl 35-37 for 5 mos.

Yeah, I got a kick in the butt.. and I took off, kinda. I just pick a day and party once a week... thats what I do.. Just once a week... sort of like exersize..

But, on the good side, I have great gear and my woodworking is lvl 50. And, a bunch of friends that I help often,... oh and a linkshell website.. so I will do anything BUT party.

Good Luck.. eventually whoevers foot will hit your butt and you will start leveling.

Well, thanks to the excellent driving skills of Atlanta drivers, I had no power last night. And this morning I found out I'm being sent away for a few days for business.

Guess I'll get motivated next week. See ya around.
