Qufim Fun.

[Torque]

First of all, I'd like to apologize to Torque. I'm sorry I assumed he had a sense of humor of any kind. I was kidding about the noob thing. I call myself a noob all the time... it's a joke. I played my job as thf and the party was going just fine. Everybody was getting good xp and lvling... so my joke didn't hurt anybody. I mean, this is a game. You play games to have fun, right? I don't understand ppl like Torque who are so serious ALL the time. Lighten up would ya?

And I know it's bad Chione didn't have that ninja spell. And I knew somebody like you was gonna come along eventually and give her crap about it. BUT, the party was going along just fine. You didn't have to be rude to her and you didn't have to SLAP her. If it bothered you that much, you could have just left our party.

To clarify, the reason we disbanded and left was because you were being rude. You slapped Chione and you called me incompetent.. only you mispelled it. (you smart guy) We felt you were very rude and disrespectful. THAT is why we left. I'm very defensive of my friends.

Thank you Reauland, Batash, and Tonic for sticking up for us. They know us very well and they know we were just having fun. Nobody was hurt.. nobody died... nobody lost any xp (at least not while we were in party). So... bottom line... Torque stop whining and next time, be a little nicer would ya?

Its fine if your playing to have fun, but your fun costs me money. Theres a time and place for everything, and that wasnt the place. I slapped her because I felt that there was no excuse. Also I never called you incompetent I just said that when the party leadership changed hands we now had a competent leader. . I realize I could have left, I disucussed it with the other members. The only one who wishes to stay was the member of Kaizen. But we decided that we would stay since we could help inform the Chi. Sometimes though I feel you need to be an ass to get your point across. Note I never swore at you guys. But like I said before all is good.

 

[Passions]

torque is far from an asshole and i dont see anything wrong with getting upset because someone is lvling a job without one of THE MOST important spells for it.

Thats like a whm saying "i dont have cure its to expensive" "not like you need it anyways just use selbenia milk"

 

[Shaunessy]

A ninja doesn't need uts. You just think that they do because you can't think outside the box.

yes and birds dont need wings :nono:

 

[Darthyoda]

You mean it doesn't? Man, no wonder I am 0/754357 on that thing. I always though it was weird I had like, level 30 CC'ers, and they would cheer me on when I killed it.

I was like "HAHAIGOTTHECLAIMN00BLETZ!!!11"




Ya anyway...

That.... seriously made me laugh!!!!!!!!!

thank you.

Not meaning to be mean.. but I judge linkshells by the members I meet from them. People searching for new shells, whether they're social, LS, HNM, Dynamis, role-playing, or event LS's.. judge them by the people they meet who equip them. How else are you going to know the shell ?

You're not in it. If you know someone in it, that's one thing.. if you don't? Then that's all you have to go off of.

I don't know the poster nor anyone else involved, but I remember things when people mention them.
"Hey, what have you heard about <blank> LS?" I don't recount specifics, but I'd have to say, I heard a couple of their members aren't all that up to par.. or whatever.

Your actions reflect on your LS, your LS-mates reflect on your LS. While I think it's admirable that you defend your friends/ls-mates, I don't think you have reason to be upset that the original poster chose to name it.

Seemingly both people mentioned were in that LS. That doubly reflects upon that LS. The original poster might not have noticed the LS had they both not been part of it.

If I see someone in my party that I deem very inappropriate or pitiful, I'll address it with that person. If I get more flak for it, then yeah.. I'll check them to see what LS they're in. I note it in my mind.. and after several players, or instances it adds up.. Bear in mind that it works both ways. If I see or meet many great players from the same LS, it builds a great respect from me.

Just as in real life.. your actions always reflects on your family, country, religion, employer, friends, etc...

If they don't know you. that's all they have to go off of. There's no such thing as an individual in today's modern world.

example: how often have you gotten a rude customer service or associate on the phone when calling for help, or information on a product or service... You call expecting service, or whatever.. get someone on the phone that really pisses ya off..

when do you say days later.. yeah that dude <blank> I called the other day was a total prick.. no .. you say.. Dude I called Acme, Inc. and they were rude as HELL....

when you wear your pearl, you represent the entire shell you're affiliated with. I hope I made my point.

btw, other two points I wanted to respond to

I play the game to enjoy it too. When I exp, I want to get the most out of my rl time. Someone that wastes that time can sometimes get under my skin. I understand that dunes/qufim is still learning grounds, but I enjoy doing events with my LS, missions, quests, and LS exp pt's. If I join a non LS exp pt, it's to get exp points to accomplish what I've set as a goal. Someone who wastes my time, is preventing me from reaching that goal. That's it.. plain and simple. remember: you're not the only person in that party.

second thing... If you're going to be on Ninja.. please sub war. and if you're going to go past 12.. please have your scroll. I'm a poor Taru ninja just starting off. I have no intention of taking it past 37 for a sub. I don't particularly enjoy the game. If exp'ing past 12, you're going to be expected to tank. Nin's aren't the greatest dd's in the game. The players in this game have created labels for all the jobs.. and unfortunately Nin is a tank. I wish it weren't.. I have a hard time as a Taru effectively tanking, and I'm still learning at that, as I'm used to being a mage. But I took the time to get the best gear "I" could get, and to attain the scroll, so that I could do the job to the best of "my" ability.. call me a dreamer, but I expect the same of those around me. I'm forgiving, and don't try to be too judgemental, but like I said before, if I'm in a non-ls exp pt.. I'm there to get experience points.. and as much of it as I can.

ok

Forgive my typos and grammatical errors. I keep forgetting there's no edit button on the flameboard.

A ninja doesn't need uts. You just think that they do because you can't think outside the box.

I admire that you want to enjoy the job and explore it's other opportunities.

The players in this game make it what it is. The players have decided that Ninja will be a tank job. The masses have decided.. I wish this weren't always the case..

Dragoons are really good melee!

War/mnk is an effective and useful job selection. You don't need nin as a sub to lvl your war.

I'd like to be a blm/smn.. but I need to backup cure, and raise.. etc..

I'd love to do rdm/war and do some melee.. but I'm too busy refreshing, enfeebling, curing, mb'ing, hasting, etc...

I'd love to be whm/rdm for the added defense...

I'd love to get Nin to 37 without having to tank.

however, every job has it's own unique abilities. the masses that have played it have set the precedence. I know that I won't be able to lvl my nin for a sub without the war job...

I don't like playing as nin.. I really don't like playing as war..

but in order to get what I want, I have to make sacrifices.. thus is life.
I can think outside the box, but I also realize the other factors that come into play. I know what is expected of me, and I know in order to get what I want, I have to conform. I admire your position, and your steadfastness..

 

[Justie]

I was the Rdm/Whm in this party and until we picked up the Smn/Whm I was the only healer. Right away I notice that one nin is taking a lot more damage than the other. So I ask Chione " Do you need shihei?".. he responds something like "nah".
Then it comes out that he doesnt have the spell. /sigh..so I ask him not to voke if he isnt able to be a blink tank. I could tell Torque was getting irritated, rightly so, as he was 'competent enough to get the scroll and buy the shihei for his ninja job.

I play for fun too, but things like this do bother me. We all know that doing the grind in qufim can be a pain in the ass. When I form a party I expect the members to be as well equipped as possible, and spells are huge part of a job.

 

[Daggett]

I've XPd with some shitty members of a certain LS that I won't name (wings of war...oops) and I see them as a group of the shittiest players ever assembled. I came to this conclusion by playing with about 5-7 of their members in the past 2 months and seeing nothing that resembles quality play.

Hey.........

 

[Angellita]

...

Ok, I see your point about Chio not being "properly" equipped. But that's why she wasn't our tank. You were. She was there in a dd role. The party was going great and we got good xp. I think everyone lvled... nobody died. It was a good party and problem free. Until you got upset over something that at the time... wasn't a problem.

If she was the tank and didn't have the spell... that's a problem. Point is, she wasn't tank. And it didn't hurt you or anybody else. Good party, good xp ... was no reason to be rude.

And I'm done.

 

[Torque]

Thats like a PLD not buying a weapon cuz hes suppose to tank or a DRK only buying a scythe because he's the DD. And as far as her being a DD going she was lacking greatly.

 

[Chione]

Wow

Okay, so I don't have Utsusemi... I've been putting off getting it because, really, farming yagudo necklaces is rather boring. That's really the only reason I didn't have it. I hadn't expected to be at 20 so quickly with NIN, otherwise I would've finished questing for it. Up until that party no one had a problem with me not having Utsusemi...

I told everyone that I was willing to leave if they really wanted me to. Apparently bitching about, and putting someone down is more important than enjoying yourself. Oh, and thank you Torque for taking things out of context and making things up to try to make a point. I never said I didn't know what Norg or Utsusemi was, I said I didn't think the spell was that important. The rest of what was said was a joke, because I didn't like your passive-agressive attitude. If you really didn't like the fact that I didn't have Utsusemi you should have said I should leave. Perhaps maybe you wanted more "dirt" on me and my friend to make yourself look and feel more prominent?

I'm going to say this once, so you should keep it in mind: my actions and thoughts and ideas do not reflect the people of my LS. That's an absurd notion and should be disregarded, if it can not, I will respectfully throw away my pearl.

I think it's kind of sad and desperate that people take a game so seriously like this.

I'd slap the people too who let your get by with that.

Ha the prominent part is rediculous. All I did was say you didn't have was utsusemi, not that I am a god among ninjas because I do.

All I can say to that is ARGGHGHRGHRHGRHG.

 

[Passions]

all ican say is LIFE SUCKS!! if you dont wana farm yag necklaces fucking buy the spell. There is no reason to lvl that many lvl past when you can use blink. hell people lvl ninja to 12 or 13 whenever it is JUST FOR THAT SPELL!!

Your a slacker and while you may not take the game that serious some of us like to get the most for our time. If you want to be lazy and not be board why dont you go play solo or duo yags for xp instead of gimping around.


GEEZ why is it everytime someone wants to be lazy and cheap is "get off my back mr oh so serious"

 

[Trippyhippy]

A ninja doesn't need uts. You just think that they do because you can't think outside the box.

Yeah, because there is no way a damage dealing ninja would ever take hate. There for they wouldn't need shadows to save your Whms mp, making you rest less, making you get more exp...

A ninja is a great Damage Dealer. That is actually what helps them keep hate so well. But if you are gonna be a damage Dealer, you are gonna use less evasion gear and more Str+ att+ Dex+ gear, and you'll do even more Damage. Ninja can't take hits. Plain and Simple. That is why they get utsusemi. If you don't have it, you are gonna be a suck ass ninja.

You can quest it, but how long does it take you to get enough fame to get the quest, and by what means are you getting that fame. For me I've turned in countless zinc ore. So just because it's a quested item doesn't mean that it's easy to get.

Because you are an idiot. Do you know how long it takes to get enough yag necklaces for a sufficiant norg fame? Obviously not. But I would venture to say a lvl 40anything/15thf could do it in about 3-4 hours. I know I did. 3 times actually. Just because it's an easy quest means it's an easy item to get. So to all you Ninja out there... Don't be lazy. Get Utsusemi or play a different job.

At least Chione is intelligent enough to spell and punctuate correctly.

You weren't there, so stay out of it.

 

[Torque]

Ya Passions! Listen to him! Who cares if your a nice person, if you can't spell screw you!

 

[Makelith]

You weren't there, so stay out of it.

Neither are well over half the people that posted in this thread so far. Hes just making a point about lazy people and only have one thing to respond with. Which i also don't appreciate very much.

Ya Passions! Listen to him! Who cares if your a nice person, if you can't spell screw you!

If i may direct you to a person by the name of Bumblebetuna. lol

And I'm done.

The point of a party with 2 NINs is to bounce hate when shadows go down and save MP making for faster chains. It is a problem when a NIN doesn't have Utsusemi, just like you expect WHMs to have cure.

If you say the little cunt was there as a DD, she had better have been equipped with full STR gear and using Dhamel pies. If she doesn't have the smarts to quest an easy scroll to quest, I doubt she had very good gear.

As I posted in one of my earlier posts in this thread, the reason that parties in the dunes/qufim/jungles/garlaige suck is because of members like you and your friend, not the actual leveling areas.

It is a shame you picked a job like whm to get to 70+ with because it is obvious you were able to leech your way through with the same gimp attitude you have shown on the boards here. I feel sorry for the end game LS that picks you up. Well, there is always blessedeternity.

 

[tonicfly]

Meeze do you even have a life my god son its a F**king game get the f**k over it. its obvious to me that your an ignorant a**hole that has nothing better to do. for one you weren't in the party and your not part of the LS mentioned so go the f**k away.
