Stuck in the middle of another Moral DilemmaFollow

I know, im such the drama king.

I recently stopped leveling my Pld to wait for a fellow rdm to catch up to me and my fellow LS members to form a Semi-Static Party. It would be a Pld, Rdm, Whm, War. Pretty much just need to fill in the blanks with random Damage Dealers at that point. Sunday night it was decided that we would all get on and level up finally after 2 months of waiting. Whm got on, then i got on and started forming the party, the war logged on shortly after and jioned us, 9 pm came and went and no rdm. I grabbed a random rdm (and he was an ***) and started to party in cape terrigan. Xp was flowing and it felt good to be beaten on again by the ever familiar crabs. The Random Rdm left and so the party ended. My problem is, i wanna level again and keep going, i don't wanna wait, the Whm and War are always on and ready to go, we are all level 56 and have been friends forever, likewise with the Rdm, except the rdm is only lvl 53, nearly 54 and doesn't log in as much. I have been friends with them all and want to remain loyal but i have been tempted to quit because i have been stagnant for 2 months, same with the whm.

The reason I post is too see what everyone's opinions are, should i bite the bullet and remain loyal, stumping 2 others leveling or continue on leveling and fulfilling my goal of wearing my Adaman Armor and fighting side by side with the most kickass Paladin on the server, Diavolo, in Dynamis. Someone help me out here. I'm tore with this decision and since i have absolutly no cability to make my own, im asking you, the general public. What would you do if you were in my shoes?

(Names left annon to protect the innocent :P)

(Except Diavolo, he really does kick *** ^^)

(Sorry Geno :P)

yeah definately talk with the rdm first. If not then what my static has done is we lvl w/o the person and then that person tries to catch up. Althought it isn't always catching up all the way... As of now we've stopped for like a week or two so our friend can catch up to us. It is a great breather to finally stop lvling for a lil while ^^

But see what your friend rdm thinks. If s/he has more of a set schedule then the rest of you do see if you can work a lil more around the times s/he's on. That's what my static has done for me since i have to share the FFXI with my bro and it's worked out great.

Sup bro, back again huh. ok ok anyways. Why you say your sorry? I know diavolo is one of the best PLD around lol. You forget how much he has done for all of us. (Probly not but you know what I mean =P) Anyways you remember when I was going through this same dilemma with a certain DRG friend who hadly ever signed on. It was Dia and Ky that made me realize this game is meant for you to have fun, not be miserable b/c you feel that you cant lvl at your own pace. IMHO, you should just let the RDM know what the deal is then continue to lvl. unless theyre just selfish, theyll understand that theyre holding you guys back and wont mind you guys to continue on. anyways just thought Id post my thoughts and experiences here.

BTW Im second dahl =P
