My time is up, time to say my goodbyes. After about 3 years ive decided to move on to another game. FFXI has really waned in intrest for the past half year or so, the brightest and darkest moments being the release of the blu job and my rapid diminishment of interest in the same. The ToAU storyline looks promising, but im not waiting a year of updates to find out how it turns out. Ppl can PM me the details for free. =p To everyone I dont address by name, its not the heart but my memory that fails. I'm sure i'll remember and be ashamed for forgetting if you respond, so do so and i'll apologize. :)

Lucylittle/stouter - thanks for great times in CoP and beyond. It was probably the most frustrating and at the same time fun event I ever had on Vana'Diel... and I'd totally do it again (like you did) if I could get a rajas to complement my tamas. Youre one of the best and kindest people I met on the server, always willing to help and generous in both praise and criticism. We wouldnt have made it through without you.

Falseprophet - For coming back constantly even though you were gone, and for always being a breath of fresh air when you did.

Flameass - For forgiving me when I mistook you for falsey constantly even though I knew you first and longest. You both start with F, and its your fault for changing your name to something that sounds similar! youd always send me tells out of the blue and include me or ask to be included in things I was doing and it always made me smile to think of you. You changed how I ran promys with your excellent thf in ENM, and probably made life alot easier for others thereby. I stopped only taking rng or war at least. Turns out drg work well too lol. Sorry we never got to remach mammetts or do Ouryu or bahamut 2. Never could get the interest up to make it happen, which is a shame.

Kirutaru - Soooooo cute, always trying to get me to do things again, supportive and a good friend. I'll miss you.

Neophytal - another of my CoP group. Thanks for loaning me that r.cloak for omega, even though it ended up not doing a lick of good lol. Had never used something that expensive before and it felt good to be trusted. I made sure never to cheat anyone ever in the game of even a single gil, but you had no way of knowing that. I'll always remember your trust in me.

Cyronae - Possibly as big a bitch at times as I am, and nearly as generous too. You helped us when noone else would in CoP, you invited me to jailors and sea just because you knew I was interested, and you keep everyone in line to get the job done. I respect that. Good luck with your eventual first AV win on quetz because I know Antares will be the ones to do it.

Dragod - Dunno why you thought you were BLM leader of UC because I always clearly outdamaged you! Just look how much more often id die from doing the most damage! I'll have to pass the dubious honor onto someone else now... :) Was always fun.

Hach - Nice to see you looking like a real blm. Go lead them with Kaly. :)

Kalykodac - Lootwhore. If you dont level bst, mnk, and the other 11 jobs youve picked up random relic from I'm going to be very sad. You were a great presence in UC and I hope you get all the relic you need.

Elemmire + mirewen: Mire. Youre both completely different and half the time I couldnt tell you apart so you amalgamated. =p Elemmire your caustic wit on the boards was always fun, and in The LS Which Must Not Be Named, you were a great and loyal member, I miss hanging out with you. Mirewen you always helped me and were kind and i'll remember you. Good luck in FFXI.

Dresdan - great leader until you stopped leading. Too bad about the shell. Never sure if youre back in ffxi or not but if you are then good luck to you always and happy hunting.

Hmkiroko - youve paid me back for helping with your hat in wonderful parties and general goodwill alone. If i had a gil for everytime we've waved to each other in passing i'd be a rich woman lol.

Mightytank + Mightymage - never sure if youre around or not either... guess thats how alot of my friends have been on this game, always having lives and going off to them occasionally while I submerged myself in FFXI til the end. I envy your flexibility.

Aceofspades, aceofhearts, aceofdiamonds: holas mi amigos, que dondo est un hall pass? I dont speak spanish. Can you tell? Come back sometime and get one character past lvl 60 please. :)

Chpal - luck in the military, dont get your nuts blown off. BoK fearless leader and highest post count LS forum on qcdn.

Oraox - galka and first founder of first LS I was ever in. You have to be the quietest person on the server, I cant remember exchanging more than 10 words with you in 3 years lol.

Zanaga, bloodlein, isotope, and the rest of the BnB and BoK oldies. Gluck to you, wherever you are.

Lavi - keep fighting the good fight girl. One of the kindest and sweetest people on the server, and Absolutely Unafraid of stepping in to right any wrongs she sees. Always saw you as a mithra in shining armor. The crusader.

Achelois - simply amazing galka. Thank you for helping me and my friends when blu mage came out and the only way to get the AF was to kill retardedly hard mobs and hope for good drops. You made our night with your amazing synthing. 1st person I ever knew with black belt, and a loyal and powerful LS member. Whoever youre with now is lucky to have you.

Meastoso - Took an interest in helping me out on smn when I was 63 whm and struggling on my first job just to unlock what I needed to be a good one. You got a duo setup for my carby mitts, and organized my fenrir run, and I owe all 50+ levels I enjoyed summoner to your kindness.

Trindel - Perverted like me, and thats not a bad thing. Good luck with HNM and gods and such, dont fall into the trap other LS's do of favoratism or taking anyone who shows interest regardless of how good a person they are and you'll do well. Good luck with the wife and kids, and UC.

Corvinus - I have 2 seals for you, ill probably leave em with silenas if I cant catch you on before I go. Was great doing sky, wish I could have done a kirin with you.

Moadib - we organized uberprimes and events all over the place and some of em even took place. You were an amazing paladin, and a great player and I couldnt have done it without you.

Sandria - another constantly and consistently helpful player. Always ready to be included, always tried to know what was going on, not just what she needed to do.

Rubiemoon - was always said that I couldnt get you your YYR, and for the failure of astralburn in remaining true to the premise of helping each other instead of people helping themselves. Was glad to see you finally got it. Congrats again.

Itheris - you were a great bard and fun to play with and help no matter what zoshe said to you. Was sorry to see you go.

Devifoxx - An asset to the community on quetz and abroad. You showed me how to influence more than just the server, and together we changed the modding world. FFXIMC.com, ffxidats.com the mod community on dreams and all are from your collection. I just did legwork. Someday maybe youll update again? Youre a good man and a good friend. Somewhere, someday that will pay off for you in more than gil and equipment.

Plamentia - Get a new computer! :) Always taking one for the UC team because you were linkdead and didnt really have a choice about it. I hope now that youre BLM points leader that youre online when hat finally drops because youve earned it.

Janelly - one of the nicest whm on the server hands down. You ran to obscenely out of the way locations to raise my poor summoner and I was always grateful for it. All the best to you.

Sueiki, svichi, birahn - You guys are great, being up in front, making dumb and fun decisions that influenced the eventual gratutious deaths of the whole shell sometimes, but you almost certainly was always a highlight of my week. If thf gloves dont drop for you soon then its my fault for not being around to hack the drops. You can blame me.

Eleibfrid - the other "ele" and the first and only loldrg. Even if you hate it, you cant get away from it. Merit jump or something and you still cant. Fortunately you can take it in stride, or at least take your anger out on your desk or something because it barely showed in game. Always respected you for taking drg all the way, and hope its better now.

Silenas - Nicole! Good luck in sky and in ffxi. Gonna run off and play somewhere new. If I give you some gil maybe youll go buy blessed gear? would make me happy.

Areia - one of my "rich" friends on the game who always had anything they needed. You couldnt buy info but I was always happy to give it. We worked out well learning blu together, and im sure youll take it farther than I would have ever been interested in doing. Say bye to pikopiko for me, I liked them but never felt accepted by them and didnt burden them with my presence. JP onryish! Bye Reality and vpurupuruv and corn, thanks for the memories.

Necrosis - Damn I hate krutzet. Whenever I think of you I always think of the repeated attempts to get you that stupid dagger, and the general mayhem involved therein. Congrats for finally getting it and the <^> to your detractors.

Tyrath, Tymon, Odon (ivolt) - I'll see you on WoW and you owe me bunches of gold for going to that lame soul eating bandwagon MMO instead of Ryzom Ring like i'd been intending. Maybe WoW can entertain me for a little while.

Ivolt - Yes, I know youre not Odon. Hes shorter. We always had good times, and you were a grea player. Good luck on FFXI or come to WoW so I can confuse you and Odon there too.

Arylias - Another old favorite. Youve been all over the game same as I have only rarely have our paths recrossed even though we moved in the same circles. Goodbye, and good luck.

Nicholette - my clone who started at valentines. Blm like me, blu like me, hume though? ugh. Always getting blamed and praised in your stead.. its all yours now.

Cythe - Thanks for getting Death'd for me about a dozen times while getting ugg pendant, and for the hundreds of other deaths you suffered for the shell (always delevelling to 74 it seemed.) You were my favorite pld.

Prophecy - You tanked ouryu like a fiend for my CoP group, was the only interaction I ever had with you, but could never think badly about OH no matter how big the flames got because of it. I still hear prophecyisms and they make me laugh. Good luck.

Mugenteg - Even though i'm gone, youre still banned from warp scrolls. Hope you get BB sometime, and good luck everywhere you go.

Maurinendalorin - most random friend I ever had on the game, always made me laugh by pointing out some random thing from the most random philisophical angle. I'll miss you.

Daywalker, Grayswander, Uzor and the rest of the crew I always managed to team up with in passing, accomplishing things together we couldnt do alone and then moving on until the next random pairing. Good luck!

Jsoft - for being the best nin I ever had in a party, and for owning but not using kclub during it. You were an inspiration when I went to level it.

Kurei - ganbatteyo. KB wo arigatou gozaimasu. tanoshimudeshita. sayo~

Limbus - My favorite and only limbus shell. Wish I could have done more with you guys, but time never permitted. I kept the shell (have it now) and will drop it when I delete. Always wanted to come back, never had the chance.

TheNameless - RevolutionaryESP - UtterChaos - TheBadntheBeautiful -
Blood of Kings - Limbus - (my first dynamis shell with perfectangel.. forgot name) - test - PikoPikopuruhammer - PerfectBlue - Antares - SeaSucks(you know thats still active even though youre banned tymon?)

and all the others. Anyone ive ever helped with promys (all 160 groups) anyone I ever helped or who helped me, all my great and not so great parties.

Good bye.

(if you see me on, im just selling off gear before tossing the rare/ex and such. A few random people will be getting gifts of gil before I go - if you dont get any it wasnt because I forgot you but because I ran out - it wont be alot anyway my net worth was under 20m =p )


edit: remembered some more while I was in class.


Drq - amazing drk and my first bcnm partner. Damn we did alot of steamed sprouts back in the day. You me and what was that taru brd's name? arg its killing me. First time I ever made any real gil in this game, and was great to have people I could trust to do splits with. We rocked that, and parties much later and had fun doing it.

Isomiau - Your name and your eyes so meow and eyes on me ow and just your general goodwil and humor always brightened whatever we found ourselves doing together. I remember you at DM fights, in dynamis and elsewhere and you were always a pleasure to be around.

Decidence - Yea we only ever knew each other through qcdn and those damn uberprimes. I did them all again trying to get enough ppl to do that carbuncle fight with devifoxx and we just never did manage to get there again. Fortunately theres about 25 ppl on the server with all of them done except garuda maybe youll have luck setting it up on qcdn and finally getting it done? I understand its farmable by beating it and then not starting quest again so you can help someone else. Never could get the hang of it.

Vang - Damn you for mpk at sozu, and thanks for actually apologizing afterward. Probably the only time ive ever heard you (or of you) apologizing. We partied once in bibiki and it was a good and fun night of bursting on my blm... think we made like 25k xp that night which wasnt half bad. I fully expect you to level a bunch of jobs and get maat's cap though, youre the one I would pick for it, or for a fully upgraded relic if I had to pick a qcdn'er out of a lineup.

Halifiren - The amazing fisherman extrordinaire. Gave me my first ever PM 'o' Praise because of a post I wrote on qcdn, was great fun to have in the linkshell test, helped get his nobles when it was probably twice what it is now, and rejoiced over his finally getting Lu Shangs. Wheres your Ebisu Hali? huh? Huh? (good luck)

Shomeghuye - Taru! will miss you little buddy. Keep playing the best you can and making people smile with taru dances. =p

Sirelrohir - Absolutely wonderful party member, linkshell member, or random jeuno shout responder. Go get some relics!

Sumer and Soujiro - The team! Apocalypse Nigh, CoP, Assaults.. always there, always together, always ready and willing to fight the big fight no matter the cost. (damn that 7-4 pot bc in CoP... lol)

Kizaryo - Ronaldmcdonaldsarmy? Wtf. Only you could found and name such a useful group of people such a retardedly dumb thing. Weve known each other forever, and I always thought I would outlive you on this game. Seems I was wrong. Good luck with everything. Keep me updated on how the storyline goes. I wonder if I can delete Nico, clear my content ID's and still download and datamine updates.. hmmm.

Thadeus - Leader of Limbus, we did great things before others were even interested, or could get access to sea and then you vanished for like 2 months. I never did find out why or where to, but everything went aimless and I ended up doing dynamis instead while it was in limbo. Kinda a shame, cause I missed out on ultima and omega fights with you guys. Keep up the pioneering, and good luck on all future drops.

You leaving reminds me of Blood of Legends motto though, you are a server legend =)

awwwww ; ; best of luck with everything, please stick around.

that makes me a sad panda. :( but it was great having you around, and i really had alot of fun in CoP with you. we did that shit so far ahead of most people! ill see if i can dig up some screenshots for you.
 
Well when the expansion starts getting good, you can still come back. My advice to you is keep your content IDs. Your characters wont be deleted by SE especially since SE is banning thousands of gilsellers almost every 3 months. I quit for about 4 months over the summer, and I was still able to reactivate my characters, so unless you completely delete the characters, you can still go back to it without having to pay.
 
I never get on qcdn no more. But I saw this coming. The moment that you told me that to have done everything and completed all mission, i knew that moment you were going to quit this game. I wish you the best RL. Your one the best summoners i ever met. When i needed help on anything you were there. Hehe Thx for unlocking my first weapons skill (asuran fist), and also getting all my avartar. My day will come soon, but not yet. Not yet. Again take care and best wishes in RL.

Have a good one Nico. Sad to see you go, but everyone reaches that point at some time. Sounds like you've accomplished a lot in your time. I'm gonna miss those days in BoK, so many memorys there. Take it easy Nico, I wish you the best.
 
Shitza! Thanks for the props, and sorry to see you head off to greener pastures. Nice interacting with you while in-game although we didn't have too many experiences together! Cheers.
 
Freedom is not so Bad, I'm actually gettin stuff done now and I never seen how seshi the sun could be standing outside as I do now.
 
Was nice meeting you Nico, thanks for your help teaching me to .dat edit =) Enjoy real life, it's a trip. ;)
 
awwwww... sad to see you go Nico :| thanks for all the CoP help you gave me. You might be back though XD never know.. I had the urge to come back (though not nearly on as much as I used to :P) so I play again though still need to get back my gear. Hope you have fun with whatever you play now and you better keep coming around here :D
 
Take care Nico. You helped me out on more than a few occasions, and for that I am grateful. It will be sad to see another one of the non-selfish players retire. Good luck in where ever you go and whatever you do.
 
Too bad we never partied.

Thanks for setting up that uberprime run, was fun getting them all done (although I still haven't done the final Carbuncle fight).
 
First Sabia now you, all my fave tarus =[

Don't be a stranger nico, feel free to randomly msn me.

I remember that. I remember you having Invictus by William Ernest Henley in your sig and smiling when I saw it. Too bad its now associated too much with the OK bombing. (Henley's life is fascinating too.) I remember you on half a dozen jobs too.. did you ever wind up levelling anything in particular or just everything in general? :)


Shyrra - go get a real petasos! :)

Ryuoho ... wayfaringlime ... Another great galka in a sea of other races. Why is it all the galka I know are exceptional?
