That's the quote in the game so I figure I can use it even though Porum has been LONG gone.

Well everyone, it's been almost three years since my original start date and I believe its time to bow out. For many people who I regularly talked to in game, it's probably not that much of a shocker since I haven't been online much lately. With work progressing and my schedule not as flexible as it used to be, I haven't been able to play as much. (And a lot of the things in FF requred a commitment to a particular time in order to be fair to everyone. I didn't want to be a hinderance by having so many reschedules around me). So this is pretty much the end for me for now. I'm leaving enough stuff on me to restart as a monk if I ever come back. The majority of my stuff will be left to Swishiee...the lone Prarie Bear and a few others.

I've made a lot of friends and especially through the Prarie Bears. We were a group of RL friends that all played the game so it made it that much more fun. Sabia, Dirgesong, Vhaelraun, Porum, Dugrasse, Carth, were all great players. Our biggest NOOB moment was running around the world trying to get aspects of mission 2-3 done for the dragon fight. We have eight players and thought we could alliance the BCNM 2-3 fight.... well, you can probably figure out the result of that. The level spread was 20-24 and the other spread was our bodies lying around the dragon. We then added other players to the shell to increase the social aspect and Swishiee is and always will be a good friend of everyones.

I'd like to put some thanks out to many people out there. If I don't mention you, I'm sorry!!!! I'm just doing this off the top of my head after not playing consistently in eight months.

Sabia of course, she made this game so much fun and I really don't think I would have stayed as long as I did if I didn't become her lame sidekick
Swishiee of course because you helped us with so many missions back when you were a whopping level 53 and I was a measly 43..
Falseprophet..(Falsey). He quit a long time ago but he helped me a lot when he was in game. I know he trolls around her sometimes still too.
Runekane for inviting me to Bigfun back in the day when I needed another shell.
Pompidou for inviting me into Buchisdma when I needed an extra shell.
Ukyia, I remember the days when I was actually a higher level than you....I think that may have been a week. You were a samurai and I was a blm, and I think the Magic Bursting made you love the blms.
Devi, you helped me with a LOT near the end. Thanks again for that.
Cythe for taking me into Nameless to have a taste at some HNMs.
Alanon for helping me with that god awful BLM stuff (four-five hours...yikes!) and for giving tips on what should be done as a blm.
Daodao and Mistra. Man, I can't believe we chatted for so long after our crazy two week static with Clobiant and Sunran. (Man, my memory fades on that one...was it Clobiant?)
Anyone in NAfireblade. Members in that shell always seemed so helpful and special shout out to Jazper, Tenkax, Asiamise and Kateverlasting for the same reason.
Everyone in QCDN who have contributed to the better of our server because honestly, I think I'd be out a lot sooner if this site wasn't up and the community wasn't built here. (Thanks Sculli)
So, a quick thanks to all the names I've recognized through the boards in game, Kiere, Majorhavor, Jender, Yomiku, Alyada, Neyla, Trippyhippy, Firestreak, Rappa, Reya, Bajaratt, Ikari, Noyade, Mugenteg , Demonknightx, Taurothar, Eleibfrid, Paladine, Empyrean, Lecan, Lokkin, Loofa, Acks, Ecks, Aerdrie, Pannda, Audino, HaliFirien, Sneakypants, Svina, Hamburglar, Torque, Vang, Tyrath, Tymon and really, if I forgot your names, I'm really sorry!!!!

The game has been extremely fun and in the future I could be back but for now, it'll be a long break.

So seeing how I owe a bit to this site and I know there are the usual "Give me your stuff" requests, I figure I'll give a chance for someone to take it.


***Edit: Dejan has won this.****

The rules are... you have to answer the questions below. (To avoid a disaster about interpretation (some of you will remember that crazy selfish poster back from christmas that was hating on Sabs, I'll be final judge.)

The prize: 1.0 Million gil (I know this might not be much, but it's something. Also, equipment isn't usable by everyone and they'd probably just sell it anyways.)

People excluded from answering are Sculli, Swishiee, Pompidou, Daodao, Mistra, and Ukyia. Sculli, I know you could probably answer all these so that's why you can't answer. It'd be rigged.

These questions will be QCDN related
Question 1: Who was the first person to be on some sort of ban (not permanently) from QCDN and subsequently moved to Hades? (Edit: I don't think it was an actual ban but it involved him thinking he got banned because Sculli was being unfair of some sort.)
Question 2: Which poster always used licking as a emote? ( I believe it was licking )
Question 3: Fuzzy(what) (What is the what? It was a LS)
Question 4: The boards have changed ownership since the original creation. Owner 1 -> Owner 2 -> Sculli. Who was owner 2 and who did he acquire it from?
Question 5: Flamey's original name was?

Also, I'll probably have mules selling junk at ridiculous prices this next couple of weeks to get rid of misc junk. It'll be dirt cheap.
In Windurst, he'll be in Windurst Walls, just outside the mog house.
In Sandoria, he'll be in the church.
In Bastok, she'll be in Bastok Mines in the Inns where you also get one of the Teleport spells.
I figure this will at least give an edge for Qcdn-ers to give back to the community. Mind you, this won't be anything too great, just odds and ends that should go to someone rather than be wasted. Of course, it can't always be done at once so the mules will cycle.

Anyways, best of luck to everyone and take care. This post probably has been godly longer than it needed to be.

It's been great playing and posting with all of you.

Palum! :(. I've been wondering where you were, everytime you would log on you'd always send me a hello and we'd chat for a while. I'm happy that you are keeping busy in life and that things are making you happy. Yes that static so long ago was fun, but it built a friendship that was pretty solid, and awesome. I will miss talkin to ya in the game man, but we can always still keep in touch via MSN and the whatnot. Take it easy guy, I'll talk to you soon.

Havent seen you around in a long time Palum, sorry to see ya go.

I'll answer the ones I think i know for fun.

1. Keits is the oldest person I can remember getting kinda banned, and I know he migrated.
2. Jender
3. FuzzyNapalm
4. The wording of this questioned kind of confused me...are you asking who owned before sculli? Well, what I think the answer is supposed to be since im pretty sure no one owned before Sculli was that the boards switched from Sculli to Reeve mainly because everyone gave Sculli alot of shit for getting rid of the FB and overmodding.
5. Flameass

Oh Snap, Dejan wins the one mil. The boards are under new ownership again? Well, I guess that would make the question a bit harder.

I'm actually surprised people remember Keits, I thought that would be a bit harder. Well, thanks guys for the nice replies, I will get Dejan the money. Sorry Mattaru!!!
 
Sorry to see you go, tarutaru. I remember seeing the twin tarus back when I first started playing, and you were always nice to my newbie ass because you recognized me from here - not that you wouldn't have been nice otherwise. Good luck out there in the real world.
 
Doh! No more Prarie Bear taru's to sit on anymore :x

I wish you the best of luck bud. If you decide to come back and I'm still around give me a shout and we'll see what we can do to help you out.

Take Care,

Tenk
 
Sad to see you go little guy. I had a fun time bothering you in tells & fighting Shiva for you.

Best of luck wherever you go.

PAAAAAAAALUUUUUUUM ; ;!!!

im gunna miss you bro... hotdamn. i hate when friends quit D: have a good time in hat silly thing called RL, we'll all miss ya man. /salute







/cry
 
Swish isn't the only bear left, I still have a pearl :D (Even though I'm almost never on it ;_; ).

I always liked you Palum, it was really cool to talk to you back when I had the time to devote to the Prarie Bears. I especially liked our time farming in Oz, even though it wasn't all that lucrative lol.

Take care man, we all have a time to go (and subsequently come back :P ), and I suppose this is your time. I hope you have fun in life, just don't forget us :)
 
I already gave a /farewell in game, but I'll do so here as well. You'll be missed. You probably never knew it, but you were my secret competition to stay on task progressing on Blm (laziness is my natural state of being), starting shortly after we met - levels, equipment, ranks, etc. Anyway, I'll miss dying on missions with you and Sabia. I'll miss eventually succeeding as well. Keep in touch.
 
Awww all the noobs are leaving!!!! Phone me slacker, we'll enjoy our retirement together!!!
 
Damn, it's sad to see you go Palum, you were one of the very first people I ran into from QCDN way back in the day. I remember it was my first trip to Windurst ever to get that Level 25 Dragon mission done, I spotted you near the AH back then. Good luck with RL and stick around the boards and post once in awhile, take care, /salute!
 
Take it easy Palim, real sad to see you go :(

Talk to me on AIM or MSN sometime.

Take it easy in life.
 
Take care Palum...here's to a happy and healthy life! Stop by and say hi from time to time!
 
Take care buddy, wish you the best of luck in RL.
 
Was nice sharing an ls with you for a while, take care and enjoy not playing this crappy game anymore! ;p
