The Official Forums III: It goes on forever, now.

[Deader2818]

Seems like a waste of money over all.

[Teryu]

Probably cheaper to just buy the gil

[Apelila]

And there's why SE is never fixing mythics: They're making waaaaaay more money by not fixing Alexandrite req's.

[mdkuser]

I dont see what's surprising about cross server transfers for items. I mean, werent the first mythics made through cross servers transfer due to shit supply ( before the pouch update). If salvage doesnt suck they will all be back at 4~5k for single, but at 20k per and with a shit supply its almost impossible to get 30k from bazar in a decent amount of time, and farming them in salvage takes forever . plus you need mules or firends to enter every day.

[NynJa]

didnt alex shoot up to 18k around the time of neo-dyna? To, dare I say, balance, the average gil/event attainable. Unless neo-salv is shitting 300 alex per run, I dont see the price dropping.

[Dotsudoku]

I see it going up, if inconsequentially, when the update comes along and everyone is temporarily under the impression that they'll be able to make a mythic.

Quick, everybody level PUP and crash currency prices!

[Ratatapa]

You mean two transfers for 16 mules? ($50 total)

There's a big Alexandrite price disparity between servers. Some servers have it at 22k, some have it at 15-17k. You can increase your gil by 50% jumping from one to another. People have been making gil like this for a long time, but dumping the gil on Alexandrite and moving it across servers is incredibly common because you keep a lower gil footprint and you can always flip Alex.

Right bee bna while forgot you can transfer more then 1 at once

Camate just locked the only thread that wasn't a flame war... http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/th...Storage/page13

...surprised?

[Esvedium]

Wasn't Camate that locked it, but still... =/

[Taruina]

Wasn't Camate that locked it, but still... =/

wow, i derped...but yea, still lame.

[Kohan]

After reading that thread, I decided I'd head on over to the main directory, and see what was posted there. This thread caught my eye, and provided a great deal of amusement:

http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/th...-update-issues

Personally, I'm in awe of the people who are praising Staren (whose posts could benefit from 90% fewer words) as the God of software standards, whereas the people who understand the difference between medical programs and video games—you know, the people who are correct—are being ignored.

Then again, that's par for the course, I suppose.

EDIT: Seriously, I can't get over that. His LinkedIn is one of the most bloated things I've ever seen. I can't think of any recruiter who would see that abhorrent wall of text and think, "By God! I MUST READ EVERYTHING!"

[Mairja]

"Attacking the staff", what??? Because people repeatedly asked for a response? I thought the OF couldn't get much worse, guess I was wrong.

[Shirai]

What the fuck?
"trust me, I am an engineer and here's my life story to prove it."

It got deleted, but whoever the OP was for that locked thread, they said something along the lines of: "Camate's probably too busy playing flash games to check the thread."
You know, after 120+ likes and it being constantly bumped for a few weeks without a response...

Just got suspended.

Dear Customer:

This notice is to inform you that we have suspended your access to the FINAL FANTASY XI Forum for one or more violations of the FINAL FANTASY XI User Agreement that occurred on 10-03-2012.

So this is all you could muster up between the microwave and www.flashgames.com? You guys are truly uneducated if you believe adding another slip or even 1000 would clutter inventory. You don't even have to buy the slip in the first place, but aside from that, if we had 1000 slips that held 3 or more items each and never needed more than 1-2 at a time, they would all still save inventory, let alone a slip that holds 100 armors that we are requesting.

You should pass on a note telling your producer to intern at Blizzard for a week to see that there is such a thing as better service than what the JP's at SE can offer, it isn't that hard; 1) Pay attention, 2) respond, 3) implement what makes sense that people want. You should also take note that a satisfied customer is more valuable than Joe Schmoe, a loyal customer will keep their subscription going, obtain a better image of your company, and buy other products you provide; while an unhappy customer will stop giving you money and inform about ten times as many people about your failure than a happy customer would of success.

Every action we issue is based on conclusive evidence of a violation and is reviewed for accuracy.

Based on the actions in this most recent incident and any prior record on the service account, we have suspended your access to the FINAL FANTASY XI Forum in accordance with the FINAL FANTASY XI User Agreement. The suspension will last a minimum of 3 hours starting 10-03-2012 4:28 (MST) during which time you will be unable to access the FINAL FANTASY XI Forum.

For information on prohibited activities in the FINAL FANTASY XI Forum, please refer to the Square Enix Account Terms of Use, PlayOnline Member Agreement, FINAL FANTASY XI User Agreement, and the FINAL FANTASY XI Forum Guidelines.

NOTE:

Please be aware that during the suspension, we will review the case and determine if you are eligible to access the forums in the future. Depending on the situation, we may decide to take further action by terminating your access to the FINAL FANTASY XI Forum and/or FINAL FANTASY XIV Forum.

In addition, actions taken against an account are accumulative. If you persist in violating the FINAL FANTASY XI User Agreement, we may terminate your access to the FINAL FANTASY XI Forum and/or FINAL FANTASY XIV Forum. We therefore ask that you do not repeat this behavior, and that you review the FINAL FANTASY XI Forum Guidelines

If you suspect the violation resulted from unauthorized access to the account or the actions of an unauthorized third party who is not your parent or legal guardian, or if there are other points you wish to clarify, please review the following information on the SQUARE ENIX Support Center.

And then I checked it again today, and saw this:

I've actually devoted the lion's share of my time for the last month to WoW, since it at least runs on equipment built/code written past 2007.

That said, you seem to know your way around code. Any idea where I can find archived drivers for an nvidia Geforce 9400

Hey, guys. Hey. If you've ever done software testing, you know your way around code, and this is how you find drivers on the Internet.

[Howie Roary]

have you tried turning it off and then turning back on?

[Odin'sLaw]

have you tried turning it off and then turning back on?
