Hi Quisten!
Your name sounds familiar, but I'll admit I don't remember our interactions very well. If memory serves me right, you were an Elvaan? I forget which classes you played.
But, I also played FFXI endgame and was aware of all the drama that entailed. While its kind of you to apologize for any past transgressions, I'd say don't worry about it. We were all a lot younger then, and did stupid stuff. I'm sure I had my share too. Honestly, it was people fighting over pixels.
That's not meant to belittle anyone's accomplishments in the game, we all put a lot of hours into it. Don't get me started on how poorly Square Enix designed their endgame content for FF11 (at least in my era). A massive time sink often with nothing to show for it. Yet despite that, it was a lot of fun playing with the LS and all your friends. Anyway, its all good.
I hope you are doing well too!

I played Samurai first and leveled with Chael when he was doing bard way back when we first got to 75. I also did BLM after that and pretty much stuck with BLM for endgame activities.

Oh thats right! That jogs the memory. Chael is a name I haven't heard in a long time. Bummed we out when he and his LS migrated servers. Were you in Fortune with Chael and Tif?

I was in a competing LS, word/wabo before and when Fortune switched servers. That was pretty much the source of any drama between end-game stuff, pretty silly stuff looking back on it now.

HELLO EVERYBODY! I'm surprised; but at the same time, not surprised to see people still checking in here. This linkshell and the people I met playing FFXI are definitely some of my fondest memories. It's nice to see everyone is doing well . I started playing FFXI when I was in high school and over 15 years later no other game or online experience has matched the community that XI had back in the day. Offline in life I've been very fortunate. Next January it will be 10 years of working for my local sheriffs department which has been a challenging and rewarding experience. So far all my friends and family are also doing well and are healthy. Over the years I've played WoW (WotLK, MoP expansions), FFXIV (ARR, Stormblood, and Shadowbringers expansions), WoW classic (vanilla), and... well... A few years back I server hopped to Asura (most populous English speaking server), however I basically play the game as a single-player-nostalgia simulator. Almost all missions can be solo'd after they added the "Trust" system (think a vastly expanded version of the Adventurer fellow's) which allows a full party of NPCs to be summoned to battle. I log in every once in a while and steadily play through the games main missions. I've completed 100% on two characters and have a couple others at the games level cap (level 99). I think the only person from back-in-the-day I've run into was Kali(nyeme), however its been several years since I last saw him log in. I thought I was going to play some games today but I spent a few hours going through some old photos... Me explaining to Kae my elite skillz The struggle was real doing Dynamis on a toaster so supportive lol maybe you recognize someone? hopfully you dont recognize someone in this trifecta... my japanese arch nemesis / secret admirerer no comment D: ;>_> just some photo's I was able to find of members, unfortunately my OLD-OLD photo's were lost Can't forget our glorious leader Oh, I found these saved too! If I remember correct Mock you made these? *edit formatting*

Hey Tif, Glad to see your still kicking! Lots of fun memories over the years. I had (have) plenty of complaints about FFXI. But, I will admit it was very good at creating a community of online friends. Are you still in the midwest?
Mock, hope you got the job! And if not, I'm sure there will be a place lucky to have you soon.
I hope everyone's summer has been going well. Hard to believe August is almost a wrap. I got married in June and it was a great time. We had a lot of fun with our friends and family. I can't say married life has changed too much though, we were already living together (and dating for 8 years at that point), haha.
Best, Kae
