My mistake as well then, I don't intend to make enemies of someone who has a sense of humor that's not even on my server. It just kinda peeves me at what happened after we put so much effort into setting everything up.
Ugh. Our group has been working on getting these to work, and just when we had it just to the point we wanted it (a day where Shiva isn't gimped because of elemental sovereignty and looooots of mobs and few people) some douchebag decides to Diaga our entire train it took 20 minutes to gather.
Man I hate people named Achlys <_<
This seems that its a matter of ethics, I mean ppl that are pro AF burn using the argument that its ok because its not a violation of ToS, but alot of ppl still think its unethical. What this guy did is not against ToS eaither, and some ppl think that is unethical.
it all seems fair to me in a way. if you are using the ToS as an argument for what you can and cant so, you shouldnt gripe about when someone else is doing something that is unethical from your point of view if its not a violation of ToS.

I see it this way, if you wanna b*tch about one easy way to get xp then you should b*tch about the other ways.

But please can we step into their shoes for a second. Now people use to b*tch about how hard it was to get to 75, or when they needed to take a break because of rl they would fall behind. It seems to me that SE gave us a "Way out" of that, but now we still have people that b*tch. So it is like a Damned if I do and Damned if I don't... Then when we want something to happen they won't do it... Why? Because there is no way to make everyone happy.
Maybe I am wrong.
That is what I said on one of my past posts. I believe it to be true, there is no way to make everyone happy.
This was the comment?
Well honestly, there are plenty way of exp, if you dont' have time to play a mmorpg like ffxi, like i already said a few times now, go play an mmorpg like WoW or PSU, that it's easy to level up. And again, Ppl lost their way on the way to 75, i remember being a lvl 60 forever back in the day, not complaining too much about exping because i knew ffxi was hard, but maybe that's just me. Getting the first lvl75 isn't gonna make your game better.
Level Sync is already a great addition to FFXI's exp system, and there are plenty way of exp and level up in FFXI, you don't need this. I'm sure there's a way to use this in a good way, but this whole Trick, can be abused, and this is bad.
From all the things made, it looks like a loooooooooooooooooooong and boring process. To do this all day long and get 75 in a few days I'd be bored out my mind.... I'm sure there are better things to do than AF to 75 fast. Maybe get a few merits if you already 75 and then go back to doing whatever that is fun.
For those of you going on and on about things being ethical and not ethical... People say xp'ing with AB is not ethical. Ok, that's your opinion. I have nothing wrong with you thinking that. But wait... People also think that someone casting Diaga on another person's train when they're trying to AB is ethical? O.oa How does that make sense? AB'ing is fast xp (Or semi-decent in most cases. As far as I know the 20-30k per burn is rare.) that does not directly affect anyone but those in the party doing it. Casting Diaga on another person's train however is both malicious in its intent and directly affects and inconveniences those trying to AB or farm. All of those that support casting Diaga on someone else's train are going to spout the "yellow is fair game" excuse. Sure, yellow is 'fair game' in the sense that no one has direct claim to a mob whose name is yellow. Everyone with an ounce of dignity will agree that doing something to lower the quality of someone else's experience within the game is unethical and immoral.
What are your views on astral burning? Is it good, bad? Do you think new players should do it? Think SE will "Nurf" it.
For those that don't know what ABing is.
It's basic, it's when you have 2-3 SMN form a party with a lev synth, lvl 15-18 for Korroloka tunnel. Have a High level player link all the mobs by dia one and resting in front of others. Once the train is rounded up have the HL call for help on the Giggas for example, and then you have the 2-3 SMN 2hr shiva's Diamond Thrust the CFH mob. This can easily round up players 15-30k in a matters of minutes. I know several people that have done this and gotten 1-75 in 2-3 days doing this non-stop.
