Yyyyess....I did make it sound like those who attempt to be somebody in a MMO suck. But not universally. You can do things in this game to be a somebody that I respect. But like I've already said, if you want GIL to have anything to do with that, you have to be first class. IE not decidence and vang. They have gil, but not anything impressive to me. Impressive to me is to buy from my bazaar--ancient coins at high volume for 35k a piece. Those are the ONLY people who have the RIGHT to brag about how rich they are in FFXI. Anyone on this forum trying to call me poor and gimp...please. Compared to them even the best on here is nothing. So if you want to brag about your armor and your gil...I can't be impressed. The people who I deal with every day are the only people who are impressive in the FFXI world based on what they HAVE.Sculli said:I happily admit that I am utterly confused now. (Reminds me of the scene in Pirates of the Caribbean where the two guards argue whether or not the is a black ship with black sails that's the fastest ship in the Caribbean.)
Anyway, in this post you made, you made it sound like that those who attempt to be somebody in an MMO suck. Unless of course "that's going to give you a leg-up!" wasn't meant as sarcasm (which it should be).
So yeah. I make fun of the paupers of the forum who try to wave what they have in my face. They're trying to be a somebody when they're really nobodies compared to the people I deal with every day. At least they're a nobody assetwise. Now they can try to be a somebody in another way, and honestly that'll do them more good when it comes to me. No one impresses me financially. You can't. And that's all these beggars try to impress me with. Then when they TRY to impress me with actions and merits...they pull lame examples like "I've gotten tons of people AF" and "I gave gil to a newbie starter once." Then they go right back to flashing their HQ at me like I didn't just tell them they were 10 degrees of too poor to even buy from my bazaar.
I make fun of economic nobodies who think they're economic somebodies, because I'm about the only one on this forum with a true list of the economic somebodies. And I have to tell you, I've only seen one name come up more than once on my sales history, so there are quite a few of them. I know who pays 6 times more than the richest QCDN poster can pay. I have the list right here.
So yeah. There is literally no item a single poster on this forum could flash at me to impress me. And when they try to flash accomplishments, it's always the unremarkable daily accomplishments of ten thousand other players. They got af once. They gave gil once. The best one yet...I wrote a guide on how to be a monk...
