Remember that time......

I remember being hammered out of my tree the first time I logged in, made my friend figure out how to move...... made a Mithra char cause of the dry humping they did on the character select screen. Deleted that after I hit WHM 43 cause of all the lolnerd hitting on me.
 
I remember starting out as a super gimped taru named Billybm

I remember talking to the first player I met in the game, who was Japanese. He kept using the auto translate function saying to use the auto translate function and me going "i dont know how!!! argh!!"

I remember fighting my first monster, a Mandy, and dying.

I remember exping in the Maze of Shakarimi (sp) and thought it was sooooo fun

I remember pting with a summoner for the first time and made me want to become one

I remember going to Mhuara for the first time and thought it was so cool to be in a town other than Windurst

I remember being on the boat..and pretty sure dying from a kraken on my first boat ride

I remember going to Sandy for the first time. It defiently looked a whole different than it did when I got used to it

I remember going to Jeuno for the first time..Upper Jeuno looked totally different to me the first time too

I remember starting over with Canitoch cause Billybm was beyond gimp.

I remember Canitoch's first battle with a mandy...and me dying.

I remember becoming a summoner and so excited to fight the avatars at level 20

I remember defeating my first avatar, and dying a lot

I remember joining the Nightblades ls..so happy ot join an RP shell..and all the members in it. I miss them :( No ls was the same.

I remember getting Fenrir..I was so happy!

I remember The Flock...the only ls where endgame was FUN, for the short time I was in it..I had so many memories.

I remember my most favorite times of the game were when I was a noob :) lol
 
I remember getting a linkpearl as a lvl 12 BLM in KRT and not knowing what to do with it. I still have that pearl to this day and still do everything with that group of people.

I remember getting invites as NIN and THF.

I remember getting BLM75 before BLM became burn only.

I remember my first endgame shell, The Browncoats. I remember them being too scared to attempt Kirin with 20+ for over 6 months. I remember quitting because of how terrible they started treating a member, then watching the shell disband a week later.

I remember my first HNM shell. We kill Xolotl once, claimed KB only to let it go yellow and lose claim, wiped to the KS99 wyrm in under 30s with blame being placed on firesday and not the players, and did some sky where we had to zombie gods. They disbanded after I was with them for about 2 weeks.

I sort of remember getting trashed every friday night for my nyzul static.

I remember joining Shakenbake thinking "Not sure why I'm applying, this Jamal guy seems like a douche". Spoiler: He wasn't. I met some of the greatest people I have ever had the pleasure of knowing in that shell, and loved nearly every minute of having that pearl equipped.

I remember taking over Lamebus after Rappa became a server tranny. I remember thinking we wouldn't get far with just 5 people. Two years later, they're still going.

I remember when Jamal and Rappa were still friends.

I remember when Audino made me watch guys getting raped in the shower and claimed it was good entertainment. I also remember agreeing.

I remember quitting smoking being easier than quitting this game...
 
I remember leveling as a LVL1 War in E. Ronfaure and getting my first LS Pearl from Tremorz and becoming a part of a LS that made me feel a part of a family, ThoseOtherGuys where I met most of my best friends in the game.

I remember me and Lecreuset duoing mobs in Kuftal Tunnel for a WAR test..and dying multiple times while using up my RR earring, lol

I remember our long-lived static on my NIN that I had with Moonyoung and Lecreuset. I also remember Moonyoung being on RNG and her dying many times lol

I remember defeating Maat! What an awesome feeling it was to become inaugurated into endgame.

I remember the stupid discussions that Badinfluence and I would have..

I remember Him and Her..those two taught me so much and I still talk to them today.

I remember one time in the Dunes where our PL died...lol

I remember doing a CoP Run and having Sheladaris fall asleep on me and claim it was narcolepsy..

I miss the good times on this game..can't wait for new experiences on FFXIV. No other game than the FF franchise can I expect to meet a great bunch of people and also have LOL's.

Definitely good times man, my most fond memories involve that static we had with your white mage, my ninja, Ikari's monk, Arylias's warrior, and uh... Natokun? His bard, I think. Awesome times.
 
I remember LOLdrg
I remember sitting LFG for 5 hours
I remember camping leaping lizzy(the only cool nm)
I remember getting lost in Bastok and thinking perfect dodge was cool
I remember joining my first hnm shell, NotoriousHunters. Probably the most fun I had in a hnm shell.
I remember sitting in Selbina thinking holy shit this music is awesome
I remember passing through Valkurm Dunes by the skin of my teeth and being beaten to death by a Ram in the highlands
I remember dying
I remember dying a lot
I remember, somehow, getting stuck on a level 9 job in Selbina and being trapped there for a few hours because of a homepoint issue
I remember when this game was fun and didn't feel like work
 
I remember when crossing Gustaberg was an adventure and the Konschtat Highlands was the biggest zone I had yet been to.
I remember sitting in front of the Crag of Dem and staring at it because of how huge it was.
I remember when Quadav were the worst things I thought I could run into.
I remember being freaked out by the ghost children in Gusgen mines.
I remember when the Rank dragon fight was hard....oh wait...nevermind on that one.

But most importantly, I remember when Vana'Diel was large. Having 70 levels to go on my first job. Craving a chocobo license, then shortly later, an airship license. I remember feeling so insignificant. Always with that feeling that I needed to keep going further to access more of the world.

Now that feeling has faded quite a bit. At this point, I can go to any area. Travel instantly via warps and teleports and OPs.

Like they said in Pirates of the Carribbean: "The world is shrinking. The blank edges of the map filled in."
 
Not sure if this was posted with another thread but I found this on youtube and I think it is an absolutely beautiful version of East Ronfare's theme with vocalization. With SC:2 coming out in a few days and FF14 right around the corner, I've un-installed FFXI for the last and final time. Reya signing off! See you in the next world!
