This one goes out to all my old linkshells leveling upFollow

Probably goes hand in hand as you lvl. The higher your job the more you notice things become soley focused on certain aspects of the game, i.e HNMS, God-fights, Dynamis, Zilart/CoP/ToA.

Either we fall into 2 brackets as lvl 75s.

1: You have an endgame LS and a social LS. Basically one for business, one for fun but balancing them both is the hard part.

2: You have a social LS but want and endgame LS but at the same time don't want to committ the time it takes to really be part of the endgame scene because you miss your social LS.

:( R.I.P LS's of days gone by.

Now you got me started! I sure miss those days and I feel the same way about Windy - where it all began for me.

There's a certain nostalgia, at least for me in just listening to the Windy music and remembering those good ol days when one of the BIGGEST aha moments was not only realizing where and what the AH was for; but figuring out WHY i shouldn't drop all those crystals and bee chips.

Running through Bub peninsula trying to get to Mhaura for boat ride always made my knees knock .. laugh if you will, it's true. First time my friend delivered me on the boat over to Selbina I was petrified when he left me. I heard that crazy music and saw all these people standing around - I got back on the ship and left.....never went back til I was like level 15 still killing rabbits in Tahrongi Canyon and a random white mage came by and said "Girl you need to get out of this Canyon and go to the Dunes!" haha.

There was just a great excitement about those days - looking at the huge expansive areas on the map; all the unknown places still to explore; nobody (really) knew more than anyone else back then, even though there were those who tried to pretend they did ......

TearsOfScarlet was my first ever social ls - I miss those days; ParanoidSocialClub - started by my still very good friend to this day, Ezekeil. I still have that pearl and you know what? Sometimes I equip it and run around. It's a pearl that I will always keep.....

Call me silly; I'm such a sentimentalist and probably too much of a romantic for my own good, but I'll never forget Windy, where my roots are; all the friends I made; even though it's a virtual game in the Land of Van a Diel.

I still take time to stop in Windy; run out to E. Sartubartu and just do a simple search for some ? players - throw them some cures (and sometimes a few gil); pro & shell - cheer them on; run them through the canyon if they need it.

Makes me feel good.... *wink*

I still have a pearl from my 2nd LS EXTREME. I remember when Jadevixen gave it to me in garliage citadel when she was a lvl 34 thief and I was whm. I equip it sometimes and I still see the last /lsmes. Its funny that the /lsmes would change all the time after it was abandoned. I still know people that have the sack or pearl. I remember promising that I would never throw it away and that it will be my home forever. I know sappy =P but i had so much great memories with the ppl in it. I still have all my screenshots too and they're fun to look at whenever i'm bored. lol

PinoyElite!!!!

Damn i miss those guys. Been more than a year since the majority of the people there left for other stuff, mostly WoW. (tsk, tsk)

Spent the majority of my adventures with them, from SJ quest to Limit Break quests all the way to my Pimp Hat.

I still have my pearl of PE, visiting once in a while, even if no one is inside, and just stick there for a min or 2.

I remember years ago being in my 40's as a black mage and after spending two long weeks without a LS (due to a nasty split in my former shell), answered an ad for a friendly social LS where I met my best friends Shark, Durnik, Net, Akisu and a few more that don't play anymore. If you miss the old days try answering some mission 2-3 shouts or find a few newbies to lead to the dunes. Listen to their chatter. I enjoy myself everytime.

Shout out to Garybaker, Kirbyprime, Muffen, Kiev, Kiltzir, Maruhsu Frigian, and Xylos. Though they are not my oldest friends; they are some of my best friends for sure.

My very first LS was BastokElite, but I wasn't in it very long, basically because I felt everyone was so far ahead of me. I still say hi to Bodil whenever I see him, though. I thought it was funny that Jinto just came back to the game; he was the one who got me a pearl originally.

My main LS was TheComedyClub, which later changed to LegendaryHeroes. I ended up leaving when the leader, Dirtydevil (DD), decided to quit the game (which was less than month after I came back from a 2-month hiatus). DD eventually came back, but I had already gone on to get entangled in some crazy group of people calling themselves FableUnity. ^.^

I also had a brief stint in DVS and then DVS3 before I realized end-game wasn't for me. I made a few good friends there, though.

I remember everyone, and while I have moved on to different things, those memories will stay with me for a long time to come.

God I forget the name of my first LS now, it was run by Shinjuro and Pefien back in early '04. Nebula, Killem, Pusspuss, Shinjuro, Pefien and Tyler (forget his ingame name it's been a long *** time lol), where you guys at now a days!

Tears Of Scarlet ls was my first one... Still lvls 1-30 were most exciting. I've several OSTs and sometimes listen to "Sarutabaruta theme" while driving to my work ^^

My first shell was with a guy named Drui. <inserting name or the shell when I'm not hung over>

I remember wandering through East Saruta and he gave me a pearl. I was level 5 mnk/no sub. He was level 15 no sub and I thought he was incredibly uber powerful. He was my role model in the game. He's the nicest person you will ever meet along with my 2nd social shell's leader.

My second shell after Drui took a long break (quit att), was TearsofScarlet which had many many cool people in it that have posted above. Femmy, Scruff, Dra, Ezekeil, Chionos, and many many others that still play today. Legolisgoldleaf was the leader. He took a break for school and now he has a new character. Camazotz.

I made many new and cool people during those times.

Thanks for all the fun guys :D

DivineWarriors forever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tyrant Kingdom, god I miss that ls. Hopes Silverfoxx is reading this. Pik, Cntrl, Cill, D, Sei, Majik, and Helena, etc lol.

/em throws up TK Gangsta sign.

"If a cop starts to pull you over and your first instinct is to zone, you might be a MOok."

I still smile when I think about our raids in dungeons, spike lagging the place out and making MOok battle cries in shouts. Ah the good ol' days.

I was in a couple shells back when I was still a nub rdm in sartabarta but their names escape me. The one that really stuck with me before I came to BanishedChronicles was Static Knights. I really miss everyone that was in that shell... they were great people, very friendly!

Papawarlock, Atlantismoon (theres more their names escape me). I still see them running around and always try to say hi. :D
