You just buried any sense you might have appeared to have after this gem lmao.

No you just proved you don't know shit.

[Norellicus]

Years of mpk, botting, rmt (guilty!), botting, speed hacking, more botting. And what undoes a fuckton of end-game players?

Non-competitive shit.

Seriously, wut.

Because artificially increasing demand for an already scarce commodity is non-competitive

[Charismatic]

Rocl, how long had you been waiting to use that image?

[bombard]

Nono, NIN tanking isn't an exploit. NiN tanking, however..

Rocl, brilliant.


needs more FFXI is dying posts in this thread.

[Rocl]

i hearby use my Evildemon Hume Dark Knight Powers to banstick ur koolaid man

I hereby use my actual mod powers and ask you to shut the fuck up, or learn to spell.

I won't do anything with my actual mod powers though, but then again...

[LordshadowRagnarok]

What you did there. I see it.

Good show. Good show indeed.

[Snitch_lol_nikki]

Yes everyone in endgame uses claim bots, windower and its various plugins etc, does that make it ok to SE? Nope, it's still against the rules, don't believe me spam whitegate saying you use windower, ffxiap and tpparty for 20 minutes and let me know how that 6th ban goes.

Only dumb one here is you, it doesn't MATTER if SE made the mistake, people, according to the TOS(which everyone has to accept before they play, remember that?) aren't supposed to exploit. Period. Your idea of what the hell this situation should have turned out and whose in the wrong. Its SE's game, they own every bit of it. They can literally do what they want. Only company I can think of off the top of my head that would admit they fucked up and wouldn't punish the players is Mythic(I'll laugh if you think Blizzard wouldn't and hasn't).

Also waiting for info on your programming knowledge(no shops this time!)

Dude you dont need to keep residing to the ToS, everyone who took advantage of this exploit knew it was wrong, I've never even read the ToS but I have enough sense to know what will get me banned, D44k is a fucking moron, he thinks nin tanking is an exploit even though the instructions manual says otherwise.

Fuckin' years man, fuckin' years

(Google debate, first page of images)

[D44kpunk]

verb
1. use or manipulate to one's advantage; "He exploit the new taxation system"; "She knows how to work the system"; "he works his parents for sympathy"
2. draw from; make good use of; "we must exploit the resources we are given wisely"
3. work excessively hard; "he is exploiting the students" [syn: overwork]

NIN tanking was manipulated from a DD class to a tanking class, thus it was an exploit, disagree if you want, I'm not going to argue semantics with 21 year old McDonalds workers who think they know whats up when it comes to programming. also that was clever rocl, i chuckled.

[Snitch_lol_nikki]

No you just proved you don't know shit.

Explain or stfu?

I must admit, this is the happiest day of my life. It's a very liberating feeling to not have leadership duties after over three years of doing that stuff. It was exciting, fun, and definitely not a wasted experience. I tried to quit so many times and couldn't. This is a really great thing, for me at least. I couldn't be happier knowing that tomorrow I won't feel obligated to show up for Dynamis, nor will I have to lead Saturday events, or assist with Recruitment duties. I can finally catch up on all the things I really wanted to do all along.

I've spent the last 6 months doing nothing but helping people become better Paladins, discussing some RDM stuff here and there, and that always made me happier than anything else Really, there was nothing left for me to do in this game and everyday was just boredom of sitting there logged in while watching TV, reading a book, or playing with my cat after work.

For me, Final Fantasy XI ended up boiling down to the cooldown between days to go to Dynamis to finish a stupid sword I regretted starting and got burnt out two months ago trying to finish. Not having to do this anymore feels really good inside, probably even better than how I would have felt had I completed it. All I had to trade for this feeling was a pair of Macha's Slops that never got completed and some Hizaku Sune-Ate I got by default. If I had known it was going to be this easy, I would still have done it, just to be rid of it all.

That being said, I'm in the minority in saying that I will be damn pissed if my ban turns out to be a 72h one. The temptation to play again will suck me in again and I won't be able to escape it, I know that for certain. I got what was coming to me and I am not only a better person for it now, but I have a good deal more respect for SE in taking the moral high road. At least it shows they have some character and aren't all about the money. In essence, they probably fixed a lot of problems with the end game and a new set of players will come up and run their respective servers now. Everyone deserves an equal shot, even if they are horrible players or whatever, and I think that's how SE sees it too.



To Vajra: I've never known you at all. I doubt we've even ever had a conversation in tells, say, or any public channel. I don't know what the animosity is all about either. I know you never had the chance to experience really active, full-out end game because you couldn't get into Karasu and you clearly harbor some kind of hatred toward me and my entire linkshell because of it, and I'm not being facetious in saying that, that really is the truth and you know it. Please understand that it wasn't our fault that you made yourself out to be the way you are. Try being a nicer person and maybe people will listen to you instead of flaming you as a result of your flaming them first. Clearly you are a somewhat knowledgeable person but you come off completely the wrong way and attack others with no plain reason. All the things you said to me or about me are stick-and-stones my friend, I didn't care then, I don't care now. I always advocated against 3rd party tools and circumventing game mechanics at linkshell events, but Salvage was not an event for me. I knew that and chose my path here and I have 0 regrets now. So there's no need to flame me or anyone in Karasu anymore. Please make better use of your time this year and good luck in your endeavors, where ever your adventures may take you.

i like to see that considering i used a debate card. and the card's i've used over the years have changed.

How does a debate card work?

[Cleverness]

Dude you dont need to keep residing to the ToS, everyone who took advantage of this exploit knew it was wrong, I've never even read the ToS but I have enough sense to know what will get me banned, D44k is a fucking moron, he thinks nin tanking is an exploit even though the instructions manual says otherwise.

I keep repeating it so that it could possibly breach his thick skull, but I guess thats what I get for feeding a troll like him . Let's just follow his logic and do wrong things as long as we do it cause its based on other peoples mistakes! Totally doesn't get people in trouble :DDD

[Evildemon]

I hereby use my actual mod powers and ask you to shut the fuck up, or learn to spell.

I won't do anything with my actual mod powers though, but then again...

lol, at least someone's having fun out of all this... I want to punch a baby! As some of my in-game friends would say.

I didn't get an instruction manual with my FFXI. I feel like you had an unfair advantage over me, NOTFAIR!!!! brb bitching to SE about it.

[Alistaire]

Explain or stfu?

I would explain it if you were worth explaining it to.

Spoiler: show

That means I won't.

He also thinks nin is a DD, I guess because they are so good at dealing damage right? I guess he could have meant debuffer, but then he is a fucking total wanker, who knows.

I would explain it if you were worth explaining it to.

Spoiler: show

That means I won't.

Because you are an idiot and don't know what you're talking about?

[Rocl]

What. Do all of you people really live in basements and can't drag yourself away from the computer? Jesus christ, I guess stereotypes are true.

But at least you aren't screaming and crying and saying BAD SE BAD SE YOU'VE SHIT ALL OVER YOUR PLAYERBASE Q_Q and own up even to the being a no-lifer I suppose.

So some degree of prop-respect given.

[LordshadowRagnarok]

My theory: Snitch_lol_nikki is D44kpunk and is logging in and out quickly to troll twice as much.

How does a debate card work?

debit* my bad, its been a long day with little sleep. i just noticed that now lawl
