The Official Forums II: Out Here Grindin'

[isladar]

The original: BG Edition

II: Out Here Grindin

The usual caveats apply:

1. Take frequent breaks. Over exposure to the FFXI Official Forums is known to cause headdesk in the State of California. Probably also cancer.

2. Take screenshots. Links go dead quickly.

3. Take notes.

Okay, I declare this new thread free of tomfoolery! The forums are going to un-stupid and we won't have anything to talk about!

[Kazen]

The old thread had some pretty nice statistics for how old it was lol.

I can give a rat's @$$ about mathematics, because stuff like that is just childs-play. What is actually going to make a video game GOOD is content that can appeal to everyone, and not just to sour-puss mathematicians whom fight amongst one another, about how much work it will take to rehash a system that has failed in the first place.

This has to be the saddest thing the fuck math crowd has ever uttered.

[Novax]

Math is for children, got it.

[Nattack]

I can thoroughly say that I love that post, It reminds me of a news article I once read about roman numerals in the superbowl confusing american children - and thus should be removed.

[Aksannyi]

That one post with all the bolding an underlining that you guys linked to in the old thread .... just lawl. That guy is so mad I can see steam coming from his posts.

[Vandalhart]

Hai Gaiz! Guess what I had to do

I'm surprised I haven't seen any merge bitching/name changing posts yet.. I'll have to take a look around. I'm sure there's more than one.

There appears to have been a new Worlds section created under the Community Section.

Edit: Actually, apparently it's not new, I'm just blind and haven't noticed it before.




Instead of doubleposting I'll post here:

I don't mind this, but what I would REALLY like is just for the damn achievements to not be secret.

Don't forget that now the server merges are done the official forum server subforums should be made soon. Lots of potential for man-child ramblings of psychos there.

They were made today I believe.

My suspicions are that you haven't ever unlocked Paladin and that you benefit from the job's exclusion (you're too much of a coward to list your jobs, so I cannot guess how you benefit).

LOL not listing my jobs in my sig makes me a coward.

Guess so. I just like adding the friends part to any post I respond to of his, because I know it'll get a rise out of him.

[BorkBorkBork]

I added a go look up the original commercial of the game and you'll see that it's meant to be played with other people. That and 100% of the content shouldn't be soloable because you dont have friends. Should get a few good posts out of it.

Well after carefully trying and testing out the new Grounds of Valor, it seems that the Devs found a way to include a variation of what the Gyms of Vana'diel concept was requesting in terms of "enhancing skill ups" in a creative and subtle way after all! ^^ Case in point: (Copied from the new Grounds of Valor wiki page)

-"Prowesses Newly introduced with grounds of valor are a variable "Mini Atma" called "Prowess". Accumulating Prowess can bestow a myriad of beneficial effects. These effects can be "Built Upon" by receiving another point in said prowess upon finishing a training regime. Prowesses will not be lost upon connection lost or Log out, but will immediately be lost upon zoning."
One of the many types of Prowesses available just so happens to be:
*Increased combat and magic skill gain.- Increases Combat and magic skill up frequency by x.

I'm a happy player thanks to you Devs. My hat goes off to you all for listening and caring about our concerns for bettering FFXI. /kneel + /salute Like I said in my Gyms thread post, I didn't care if it was a new zone or not, so long as the functionality made it to the game. It's not a "Gym", but the functionality made it to the game all the same ^^. I'm sure with future updates this new Prowesses functionality will be beefed up even more to provide even better enhancements. An additional /bow goes to the shear SPEED of implementation while exceeding my expectations! Bravo ^^ /

Again, Thank you Devs. /wave

Good god

lol @ the racial offense being taken to the new gearsets.

Seriously every time Kingfury posts with his stupid emotes I want to punch him in his face.

^ This x100.

He's like a mix of every incompetent retarded galka I ever met. People who play galka characters can be narrowed down to:

1. Pretty fucking awesome.
2. Completely fucktarded.
