    Chocobo owning? Haven't heard anything about that, do you have a link to some information? I think I'm gonna try my luck as a whm when I start again :3... I would play rng, but i'll wait till i feel financially secure to just power through without worrying about things.... I wonder if that'll ever happen :(
    So, I haven't really done any research but are there going to be new servers soon or server transfers?

    Sorry no link, can't find one, but at a FFXI event, it showed a timeline, and on it, later this year it said chocobos could be had as pets.

    Just start crafting, if I could do it all over again I'd have done that when I first started, no doubt.

    Probably, with the large influx of 360 players they need somewhere for them all to go so that the existing ones aren't too crowded.

    Man, this thread falls off the front so fast ; ;
    Playonline released information regarding chocobo breeding here:
    http://www.playonline.com/ff11us/topics/060601.html
    Sounds cool and all, but I don't even have the patience to grow plants, how am I going to wait 1-3 months for a bird? ; ;

    So, to keep conversation moving along here... what are your guys' current achievements and goals? Mines finding my POL-ID so I can resubscribe XD

    My current goal is to get approved for my credit card and play the game. I've had the game sitting in my room for 14 months due to lack of credit card (I don't have bad credit, I just couldn't afford having one before).

    Hey guys. I have played FFXI for awhile now. Like 3 and a half years or so?

    I am on Sylph.

    Elvaan Male from Sandy, 75PLD 75NIN and 70DRG. Name is Gyogi. Rank 10... Uhh... Yeah.

    Pretty much it. When my Sony Vaio AR comes to my house, I plan to check it out on there. Hopefully it will be ****loads better than my 9800 Pro. :D

    -Mike

    And now to revive my old thread, I've not been on NBR much due to, pure laziness. >.>

    Well, I was kinda busy, what with trying to multitask playing two games at a time and watching a movie, it's harder than it sounds...

    I'm showing Zicky the ropes of the game, i've done this before and it's pretty fun, but the way i do it is very thorough so I often go on typing sprees that take a while to do, so it is a bit of work. Plus organizing my thoughts and what's most important for a new player to know. Playing as long as I have and doing what I've done, though I'm not that high a level I've explored quite a bit and refined my sneaking skill that way, and I research things for hours because it interests me, things about the game. So I have quite a wealth of knowledge especially compared to a new player after two and a half years of that.

    That makes it a bit annoying to teach because of conflicting views in my head of what to teach him next. <_>

    Anyway, I think I'm doing all right with it, the last guy I trained turned out very well, he's outleveled me, but that's not that hard to do. =/

    He turned out to be a very good player, and I'm pretty proud of that, actually.

    Anyway, I'm done rambling. Keep this thread alive!

    Well, it's not hard to do since you let your moogle poke his nose in a rather ...errr... unusual place :)
