    Gimps getting in BG?

    Hi,
    Today while in Garlaige Citadel I met a certain BG member who was on their level 33 Ninja exping. The individual in question had nothing in neck or back slot, lvl 16 bone mittens in hand, beetle armor in other slots, lvl 14 Amber vit+1 rings, and 2 NQ hibaris. It has essentially been accepted since the dawn of time that Ninja is among the most gil-intensive jobs in FFXI, if played well . A good Ninja, especially one who already has a lvl 75 job, can be expected to have an Emperor Hairpin, Leaping Boots, Nomad's Mantle and other such quality equips. I am sure people will have contrasting views on what constitutes a gimp but in my opinion what I saw easily fulfilled the criteria.

    I have seen BG members levelling various jobs and on pretty much every time I see them they have been impeccably equipped, upholding the good name of the LS. This is the first time I have seen one look so gimp. As for the identity of the person? Here's a clue: "Ancient type of Tree". Think about it :wink: I can only assume he is unaware of the set-in-stone etiquette of FFXI and seemingly has the viewpoint of "I have a lvl 75 job, so I'll just be a gimp when I level others". Sure made me chuckle :D

    Didn't you know it is now the cool thing for the uber-leet to purposely gimp themselves just to show how good they are without the best equipment.

    People don't stay rich by buying ridiculously expensive stuff for low level jobs. I leveld tons of stuff in my apron, who cares? This has to be the dumbest post to hit the forums.

    "WHY AREN"T YOU WEARING WINGED BOOTS +5 ON YOUR LEVEL 10 JOB"

    Least she's IN BG.

    Ok first off "Azrael" or however you spell it, who the fuck do you think you are bashing people? I saw your gear on what was it rdm? Centurion gear eh? Not everyone can afford or RMT their shit like hairpin and what not and some 75 jobs have a bit of trouble making money. So sorry not all of us fit your gear standards but that ninja in question is a good friend of mine. She isn't even leveling ninja because she wants to but she's doing it for the good of the LS, struggling through the levels with the money she has.

    You must be really proud of yourself bashing people without knowing their situations.

    But doesn't the ninja want to be the very best?

    Your wit reading into my obviously exaggerated amount of time for reading that post is astonishing.

    And we ALL know what you level as an alternate job/subjob and how you equip is just vastly reflects how you perform on your main job you know by heart

    Stupid +1 {You can have this.}

    Going back to Dynamis - Jeuno, Mega Boss time.

    poster is a retard

    to respond to your implication, no we dont recruit gimps. so your judgment about the person is misled. our recruiting is based on more important/relevant factors than stuff like having leaping boots on NIN SJ.
