Defining momments in FFXI / BG history

[Suiram]

don't lie

What originally brought me here was the Killuminati/Hoodlum/Rustymetal drama with GMs and hacks etc.
Prolly stands out the most, especially because I pissed them off enough that they made a ytmd with a fake picture of me <3

That's when I started reading, too. lol Bug Debug 114!

I just remembered the Earth staff > Cerberus tanking thread. Oh god that was lol.

The day they fixed the Salvage dupe.

ATNM Test!

Wafik is not the only person to post amazing things. Elmers <Mysterious Girl> aphmau thread for taj was hilarious.

That sounds pretty interesting, I assume the thread is long gone? What was that about?

stolen chram

ATNM Test!

Only FFXI-related occurrence ever to cause me to laugh out loud, God that was so fucking hilarious.

[Pikarya]

Dunno if posted already, but m.hands drama.

THAT BITCH FUCKING TOOK IT.

Their first BG relic got me reading BG and got me started on my own

The sirlancelot drama thread with the NSFW picture where the private parts are censored with an Excal and Aegis was pretty good too.

That wasn't sirlancelot, that was Roundhouse. I went through great mental pain to deliver those pics to senoska (who shopped them) and will not let anybody but the great satan of Unicorn get credit for the sheer horror of them.

Also Kagomea's art thread is the best thing to happen to BG in the history of BG.

The great schism is the most important and defining thing in BG history though.

The thread where BG fought JOL for the first time (and lost, horribly) was the most defining moment for me, because that's when I started reading.

We would have kept holding it and tried some more too if the fucking GM didn't depop it.

somehow i'd missed this thread. thanks so much for sharing. it was win+1

[Xanthu]

Howabout Wyrmal Legs and Mazurka make you go real fast?



Or several RMT outings of big names?

[Tubbers]

Taj + Atomos. Wamouras. WHM burn PT in KRT (I think that was posted in the media center when it came out, had Milkmandan, "4 fucking hexa strikes", etc.) Chilicheese boost. Kuno cards. Rykoshet not updating his livejournal.

Those are the ones off the top of my head.

The something-nova FFXI-player guy who got arrested for child pornography was when I started reading BG. Whoever made that taru mule and /tell'ed him something like "oh no, an orc just killed me. Would you like to come look at my child-like lifeless body?" caused some of the best LULZ in history.

[vegetaa]

"Hexa Strike with a Kraken Club is 42 hits"

One of my favorite lulz on BG were from the hand-drawn timelines...I think these were from Bercus (?).

Old stories about BG being at war with that UAE shell...there was that incredibly awesome picture of an old-school BG PLD watching the whole UAE shell wiping to Vrtra, while he was wearing a Reviler's Helm. It was way back when Vrtra was a big deal.

Russta's 2 posts about the Goblin's Drink mystery.

The first time Lei's gear was posted. Same for Worldx, same for Ostrea (sp ?).

I think I remember a post (probably early 2005) when Muteki (Seraph RNG) got his first relics. He was one of the first players to obtain one. There was that screenshot of his inventory where you could see he had all the currencies and over 100M...back then 10M was big money.

Many great posts back when ytmnd was funny.

The riot against ffxi-wiki/wikia. Blood was spilled all over the place, it was awesome.

More recently there was Luciola's pwnage. This thread was awesome, and Jackyl has been one of my heroes from that day.

It's gonna be hard to forget BG, even years after FFXI servers are shutdown by S-E.

Jeez, I've lurked here for a longggg time even before I registered on the site. Let's see....

Anything related to early AV was great to remember and the theories kept me laughing. (lolpanels?)

The Schism, no one should forget.

The original FoD thread was lulz.

Krye-related everything was usually hilarious.

Sirlancelot... rofl

Casino's in Jeuno discussions are weirdly vivid.

All Taj-related epidodes, most notably the FFXIApp list

Watching the AA people slam their heads against their keyboards.

The many names of Spam and the 1000's of attempted trolls.

bercus's threads, heroic Jap-NA posts and interviews

The history forums that Elmer runs. Also, the list of player gripes that SE actually dealt with and changes. It was in a forum somewhere....

I could go on for awhile but these popped up first.
