To be honest, I feel like I'm kind of taking up Keits' reins here. And I like it.

K, I don't care anymore. You post on forums to get answers, I gave you mine who cares.
We are all people here, except for those people who are people. I don't care what you do with your time while waiting for pties.
or whatever you said. I have lv50 Woodworking and lv 60 Clothcraft. So don't just say random shit b4 you know it. I could care less about money.
If you didn't care anymore, why bother posting? Unless you're scrambling to recover whatever credibility you're losing by posting here (and being rebutted by everyone, both lower and higher level - since that matters so much to you.) You have 60 in a craft, 50 in another... and you can't make money. You say you couldn't care less. I say you're either lazy, amazingly stupid, lack basic understanding of economics, or a nice mix of the three.
My refreshes go to people who need it. I don't need it first. A good BLM will. I'm not a noob RDM. I know what my limits are and when i need shit. I shit +40mp Pumpkin pies out of my taru ass every morning. You can go suck on a popcicle.
Every 'good' RDM I've spoken to, in forums and ingame, basically concur the Refresh ladder goes Self, PLD, Main Healer, DRK, SMN, BLM. BLM should really NEVER need Refresh, since they have the best Clear Mind trait in the game and Conserve MP. Plus, if they're using all of their MP every fight, they're likely a DEAD BLM due to hijacking the hate to an unacceptable degree. A BLM that needs Refresh is a bad BLM. Plain and simple. And the pies? Well, you said you basically expected the melees and tanks to eat food - save gil for me, but not for thee?
WELCOME TO THE FLAME BOARD HAVE A NICE STAY
Thank you very much, but I need to call management cuz theres an annoying little fly buzzing in my ear.
I don't care if your lv75 or a fuckin GM you will get my 2cents. I posted here because I thought my imput would count. But apparently all it does it make you angry.
You're a bad judge of 'angry' as opposed to 'insulted by incredible stupidity.' Input counts when it's constructive. Your 'input' is what makes the Dunes so unbearable. Your 'input' is what tells bad players to just go ahead and party despite being completely unacceptable members.
Just fyi. PPS? *cough* /crickets. Please I need a list of people who give a damn about that. People do use 1337 speak more than PPS or PSS. So go have another popcicle.
You seemed to give a damn about my '1337' speak, despite not using it yourself. So what the hell, if you're going to keep butchering the English language in any way, shape, or form, I may as well hold you to the same standard you hold me to.
Reading about being a RDM. Is not being a RDM you moron. "faqs" give you the basic's. People who follow the basics end up refreshing DRK b4 PLD. If you do read up on all Jobs, then you would know. Raptor. Ceuorl do not have MP. Er go Aspir = 0. 40mp, and 3 INT They are wheaties. I don't eat breakfast, er go No wheaties. And yet i dont suck. Why waste 350 gil a pie, on something you dont need. Its like buying Kote, if your a WHM. You cant use it why have it? Oh cuz its nice to have +20 attack. But even if you can use it. Why would a WHM want it. They don't melee. Well some do, but just exclude them for this example.
Kote is a bad argument, as WHMs can't even equip it. But that's not the point. People who follow the 'basics' Refresh the PLD. And they don't refresh the BLM before themselves. But hey, keep on riding that rainbow of not needing extra MP in either Refresh OR food.
Congratulations! You have money. Go fuck it. Cause noone cares.
Seems like you do. I'd wager you've never come close to sniffing a million gil. But really, that's not the point. Some of us like to be poor. It's what keeps people on welfare instead of getting an education and a job that pays a living wage.
Again. Your basing all your opinions on yourself. PEOPLE AREN'T YOU. If there was abunch of people names Cubswoo running around, i would of emmigrated.
Because if the server was full of people like me, you would
NEVER, EVER PARTY, BECAUSE NONE OF US WOULD WANT TO PIGGYBACK YOU FOR A SINGLE EXPERIENCE POINT. WE WOULD ALL DROP YOU, BLACKLIST YOU AND TELL EVERYONE IN OUR LINKSHELLS AND FRIEND LISTS.
*ahem* *Soliloquie* And I'm the Immature one?
Harsh words from a guy that can have his arguments summed up in three points:
1) I don't give a fuck what you think
2) I'm higher level than you, so I know more.
3) I get parties so I must be right.
Um.. feeding a family. And buying a porche. I'm sorry but thats the worst analogy I've ever heard.
Damn, maybe I should have used smaller words. Let's make this easier, so you can understand it:
Partying without food: Using food stamps to feed your family, since you're 'poor' and need everyone else to pay for your needs.
Partying with food: Taking your family to TGIF and dropping $40 on a plate of Buffalo Wings and some nice platters. Better time and a better experience.
Buying a Vermillion Cloak: The Porsche.
If you're saving up for that Porsche, will taking your family out to dinner once or twice a month really set you back towards that ultimate goal? Can you really justify not spending the gil? Well, shit, you'd better walk everywhere you party, because that chocobo fee doesn't NEED to be paid. Nor does the teleport fee. And that gun ranger should just switch to a bow, because he's wasting gil on bullets! And the Ninja, why is he tossing all those expensive Shurikens and those non-Shihei ninja tools?
TO PARTY PROPERLY, YOU NEED TO SPEND GIL. The fact that you can't understand that is simply baffling.
Again. Congratulations! You have money. Go fuck it. No one cares.{/quote]
Of COURSE you don't care. That's why you make the point twice.
I'm not saying that you should not want it. But if it isn't there. Then what? You'll be sitting there playing with legos as your recovering your MP, cause you used it up to fast. Everyone uses mp. It's called management. I'll buy you a god damn secretary to manage it for you.
If it's not there, then it's a bad party. Every party that has gotten anything close to acceptable XP has had either a BRD or RDM in it from 41 on. And if it's not there? I won't keep my summons out - I do know how to make critical decisions like that. They'll have to accept the fact that my Magic Bursts don't do double the damage of the RDM because my avatar can't build TP. Whatever.
Again. You depending on food. Depending on yourself >> No food. I will go solo e/p, d/c, mobs and won't use food. Good decisions? Where did decision making come in? Do you have a crazy, happy, funtime, language that I can't see or??
I'm getting more and more suprised that you figured out how to input the digits on a credit card to subscribe to this game. "Depending on yourself" means knowing the tools you need to be an optimal player. Would I still be a good player without food? Yeah, probably. But
I AM NOT INTERESTED IN BEING 'GOOD.' You obviously are. Being a 'great' player is not something you consider yourself, nor do you seem to inspire yourself to do.
I do.
By my own admission, I'm a perfectionist. I'm an 'elitist fuck.' Because I love this game. I have an obligation to 5 other people every time I party to be the best Summoner they've ever partied with. I normally make good on that, from their own mouths - and I'm not social. You don't want to be the best RDM on this server, so you don't try. And that's FINE. You have accepted your place
Yup, I am an idiot, Nay. Cause "you dont like my attitude". And JP hate NA cause of me? I don't say shit all in Game. I get usually 1-2 JP invites a day, unless they are Chinese characters I'm seeing? You see the part of me who disagrees with what Cubs was saying. I run around Jeuno saying I'm the best look at me, be just like me. I hate what you look like change it! HEY YOU OVER THERE, STOP EATING PIES CAUSE I DONT EAT THEM! Excatly what I say.. You get a popcicle. Congratulations!.
I don't need to tell people I'm a good player. I just let them invite me and show them that.
RDM is an in-demand job. Many players choose it (just like WHM) because they know everyone wants one. They want people to fight over them regardless of their skill or gear, simply because everyone wants their Refresh or Raise II or whatever. I haven't had a chance to get Fenrir yet, and until I do, I fully expect to lose invites due to it. I don't have a level 70 job, nor do I have the gil to finance five level 75 mercenaries to get him for me (last I heard, the going rate just for the Fenrir fight was nearing a million, possibly more.) Could I make the gil? Hell yes I can. May I give up and do it eventually? Who knows.
I have the utmost respect for the 'low-demand' jobs, and the people who play them. Jobs like DRG, SMN, MNK, WAR (to an extent.) I understood fully that SMN was at the bottom of the mage ladder when I decided to take it up. We are an end-game job. Post-70, we're some of the best damage dealers a party can find. Until then? Pure support/backup heal role. I could have stuck with WHM to 75, sure. I can easily predict my level being around 60 or so if I'd stuck with it instead of stopping at 37 to have my Summoner perma-sub.
Do I care? Nope.
It's not a race, despite what you may want to believe.
