Most of you could probably guess this already, but im not on Quetzy. At all. Not even a low level character. Im also not even a level 75 player. The highest job I have is a level 32 PLD. I know nothing of end-game except what I have researched or learned here. I have little to no knowlage of damage modifers and for most of my missions I had high level friends help me through them. I usually stick to a job until I get to around level 30, then I get bored and switch, meaning I have not progressed very far at all.

I'm putting this in the flameboard because I figured you guys are going to want to rip into me, so by all means have at it. I put on a false face for so long and its just not me. I've tried, and succeeded a bit, with adjusting my posting habits, and now I want to earn a good rep. Not fabricate it off lies or half-truths.

The whole reason I did it was to find a way to stay in this community. Its fun and entertaining and always has useful information. It feels more like a FFXI community as a whole rather than server specific, and I really enjoy it. I felt like I needed to be a high-level, decently educated player to be accepted into the community, so I posed as one. But now I realize what an ass I have really been acting like.

So again, rip me apart or whatever, Im done putting on a fake fasade.

I do not want to end up like Dehorse. I would rather get on everyone's good side than just be an annoying ass.

So, sorry and I will try and be a better, contributing member to the community, if you will still have me.

Cheers,
-Rufus-

EDIT: I do hope to join the server after boot camp. Until then, I'm just a Hades player.

Admitting you have a problem is the first step toward healing. Good for you.
 
The first rule of Fight Club is...?


But seriously, wasn't there a rule about no self-flaming, and no flamebaiting? This seems to contain both. mirite?
 
Shoulda gone in general disc.
 
I wasn't sure. I wasn't trying to flamebait per say. I just figured the subject in general would warrant it regardless.
 
dont talk about the fight club

is it just me or has Dehorse taken over Blazns spot on qcdn?
 
seems like you're taking it a bit too seriously
 
Um.. does any of this really matter?
It's not the level so much as the ability to learn from thier own experiences or listen to what non idiots say and use that information to make descisions. That being said I really dont find his threads that annoying or actually notice him making that many. Honestly I've seen a ton of stupid threads coming from way more people than he has probably ever made. So we have a low level person learning about what he should be doing at a higher level around here once he is high level? What's wrong with that?
Rufus is probably more informed than many of the horrible players people have met at 75 and since he will probably have played all the jobs high enough or listened to high level players enough to know exactly how they tick by the time he is high level. He should have no trouble giving pointers to people that need help in his party or making tips on various little things.
 
I should lock this outright just for containing too much honesty, but we'll try it out and see what can come of it. Not your avg flameboard content thats for sure.

I can respect honesty no matter who it's coming from, but I'm still gonna giggle when people call you Dufus.
 
This guy is an idiot and always has. He jumps on the particular bandwagon of a thread and repeats what everyone has already said. Hopefully this is the last idiotic thread he posts in.

Uh... we know. You're not quite as bad as Dehorse, but still, please, stop posting.
 
Unsurprisingly, most of us find this 'revelation' to be nothing of the sort.

Still, honesty is good for the soul.
 
Granted my posting habits have been, and still are quite a bit, horrid.

In reference to those posts quoted by Meeze, in one, I was talking about how if you bitch about RMT then party with them, you shouldn't be bitching.

In the second one, I was saying about how most of the RMT that I know are fine and cool, and I have no problem partying with them, because most RMT action doesn't bother me.

Your reading them as two contradicting posts, which is not the case.
