If your reading this it's probably safe to assume you play FFXI, probably not as much as me but you do play it lol. Now when I started this game it was a breath of fresh air for me coming from a PvP based MMORPG where gangs controlled the server and swarm-killed anyone smaller, weaker or less popular than them. I actually came to love this game....yes....love it. All of this has remained true up to this point....but that is changing quite rapidly thanks to the bigoted fascists who feel they have the right to dictate the actions of anyone they don't agree with or approve of. I'm sure anyone reading this can think of a few names off the top of their head but my flame isn't aimed at any single player or LS even. The so-called "go-along-to-get-along" attitude I encounter on a daily basis has gotten totally out-of-hand. People are attacking me for being friends with a group of Chinese players because they are "gil-sellers" according to the server gossip. There's no proof except "....my friend told me...." or the ever popular "...everyone says...". I've been putting up with this bullshit for weeks now but today I had several people who I thought were my friends, people I've never been anything but nice to, tell me they aren't my friends anymore. My final word on this is if you have so little self-esteem or personal honour you need the approval of a bunch of punk-ass kids you let it totally over-shadow your own personal integrity please keep all your oppinions to your damn-self in future.

I've always been generous, helpful and considerate of others but now I get nothing but hate from people who know me better but choose to ignore it in favour of earning the approval of people who's oppinions are worth less than a pile of moogle droppings! If you are one of the people who comes under this heading please don't burden me with your prejudices and personal issues since I won't bother you with mine. On the other hand if none of this applies to you please forgive my outburst I'm just very tired. Thank you.
 
If you honestly think the group you camp with aren't gilsellers... then you were just plain retarded

I never heard of you, im sure you haven't heard of me, so i dont have a problem with you, but stop helping the gilsellers.. its just sad :(
 
Oh oh, and before anyone says "BoL camped with the gilsellers too!", they didn't get anything out of it except self-esteem and 3k gil. You're probably upset we gave them self-esteem though. Shame on us. ; ;
 
i'm friends with flypanda also but i wont camp with him. i used the want to because of all the NM i saw him at and thought that would be fun, but i found out what he does and i didn't want to get involved with that.

I'd still kill for a HNM shell like that though, that kills that many NM's a day.

Actually, Peterli, Flypanda, Flytosky, etc are not gil sellers. They did at one time asociate with a few of the real gil sellers as they shared the same language. Flypanda and Perterli have a new LS that does not contain any of ther likely gil selling suspects.

I am really tired of people looking down on the Flys and Peter. They are realy good people, and pretty good players. Like all of us sitting at 75 bored.. they go hunt HNM / NM / Gods for Rare/Exe items and money drops which they split evenly with all who attended the run. Amazingly just like any other HNM LS. The Fly's have never MPK'd... but have been MPK'd by... you guessed it, the actual gil sellers. Yes I mean Cows, Bettylilly, Large, etc. etc. All those RedSky assholes.. or ForgotenShadows whatever that MPK the whole Garbage Shit zone when Serket is up. The same asshats that bring Torama's by while I'm lanking LoO.

IF YOU REALLY WANT TO FUCK WITH RTM PEOPLE... FUCK WITH THE ACTUAL RTM PEOPLE! Hell the Fly's and Peter are just as sick of em as you are.

BTW - the 2 of you proved Paddington's Point I think lol
 
I was in a pt in GC and this LS ran serket around the entire bottom floor killing anyone in thier way. I Died twice, once from serkets aoe spin attack and again when these fools brought it back near us, by poison2.

what that i'm still friends with him i just dont camp with him? that i'm still friends with penut? His point was that it was ok to camp with them and people shouldn't judge him. that is why i dont camp with them, people are to quick to judge. but yeah fly has nobles tunic, and thats about the most expensive thing i've seen on him. where does the gil go? each serket ring he sells is almost 600k to each person in the allience, i've seen more then one sold by them. that's the only thing i've looked at lately because it is something i kinda want. when the gear doesn't fit the profile thats when judgements are made.
At least he camps fair, and he does hate mpkers i know that. he was camping bune and killing it, when the thf "gill seller" i guess lucky something came up witha whole train of gobs and stuff, killing my whole party and almost whiping his allience. he raised our party and asked us to report it, we did.
so whether he does or doesn't, he's very helpfull but has matched a profile as a seller. but i wont befriend anyone that camps with him or talk to him because he's still a cool guy.
 
Can you really be that naive? Suppose they aren't gilsellers. Now these people spend ALL DAY camping NMs and HNMs, and I'm sure they'ce gotten plenty of drops. Where does all this money go? They have pathetic gear, Wing Earrings, that cheap Harpe, NQ Scorpion Harnesses. Now I'll admit, they actually do have better gear compared to people I would call "real players", but if you're hauling in at least 50mil a week, and that's the only bullshit excuse of equipment you can come up with, SOMETHING IS DEFINITELY WRONG.

Seriously, they aren't all that nice. Ask this one dude, goes by the name of Binh, what Flytosky did to him. Binh gets the ToD on the Joyeuse NM, Charybidis. The Fly's tell him they will kill it for him. Binh is waiting for the invite as the Fly's are fighting it, ultimately leading to them killing it, and warping shortly after. You helping them, and them paying you is not nice, That is BUSINESS.

The only thing I can compare this to is Stockholm Syndrome, without the kidnapping.
 
Ok...so this whole crap of RMT has escalated to, "Hate all gil sellers, and anyone who associates with gil sellers (i.e: Camp NM with them on a regular basis), but the problem is "who are these ppl?" XD

Hmmm, maybe we should have a Quetz Most Wanted and "Proven Gil Seller" list then XD

So then I must be a seller too huh? You see me as my PLD and ask where is the AF2 god gear and Gigant Mantle etc? I must sell because I don't have a scorpion harness yet.. i must sell because I don't have +1 gear... What a load of BS.

This game is turning into a junior high school cliche.... i saw so and so with you know who.... oh really?!.. i never like him anyways... Hey buddy how are you?.. i can't bellives he tried to talk to me..... bye see you again! ... omg get him away from me... can you help with AF?.. he never helps me ... thank you.. like I needed his help

Hopefully Dark and Light will be a real RPG with less sophmoric attitude.
 
Shut up Cocksuke, go ride your surfboard to Dog the Bounty hunter so you can go back out with that girl again. And don't let Dog kill her!

a. those arent HNMs, they are shitty NMs that drops good loot
b. you really dont wanna be a part of a LS that atleast 3 Shells will train, and countless other people who know what they do.

Although the IdolConquest guys dont MPK like the other fags, and even raised me the one time after i tried to MPK their rivals in GC basement lol
 
All i'll say is I know of some people who are not gilsellers who get harrassed as gilsellers just because they're chinese. I kind of wonder sometimes how many of the people who go out of their way to piss off gilsellers buy it themselves. Quite a few I bet.

you forgot to mension that we lvl other jobs o.O i've never seen fly as any job but whm NEVER! he's always in a party fighting a monster if he isn't in jeuno.
as i said before and i'll say it again. flypanda is cool, but his profile doesn't fit the average 75 gamer. no lvl 75 fights that many NM consistantly EVERY FING DAY!!! and still has NQ light staff and and a pair of 4k gil rings. those guys BANK MONEY! big bucks, where is it all going? they dont lvl new jobs and there gear isn't the TOP OF THE LINE +1 1337 GEAR!!!
they just dont fit the profile your portraying to us.

pretty much the best way you can put it! Can't do it alone so they hire help, workers for them. only instead of paying you RL money like they'll get they give you a lesser for GIL

Nah, you're just to stupid to realize that you're baby HNM's with gilsellers is all, but there's no convincing when I'm only typing something, and they're giving you cold hard digits, amirite?
