If you are trying to apply to Citrixvi and having issues with the website, you may forward a make-shift application (Character name, rank, level, job, what you look for in a LS and any referrals) to my email (********************** and I will post the application for you on the Citrix forums. I will also contact you in game to let you know I have done such, and contact you again once voting has finished, to let you know if you've been accepted to the LS/give you a pearl.
As I understand things, while we are a social linkshell, for the most part, we have a dynamis shell setup and lack only the numbers to be able to make that a regular event. We are also talking about starting a static of sorts, to farm sky and NM pop items, so that we can schedule those types of events with greater regularity. There is certainly a strong foundation at Citrix, and with a significant increase in membership, the linkshell could easily become a laid back social home for FFXI'ers, while providing end-game activity for the myriad high level members in an alternative shell, equipped only for events.
