FFXI LGBT Community, Who Are You?

Oh wow, coffee prevents headaches for me xD

Done with that Gastrofantabulous yet?

not until like the first week in march >_> stupid einherjar and assaults all thats left..i find myself having nothing to do now. dont have to get gil for alex or spam salvage daily..it's pretty boring actually lol.

i still get the urge to buy alexandrite when i see it..might just start a second mythic >< something to do

You so crazy! I'm terrified to start one. I left the game for a few years while in college... back when ToAU first came out. When I came back, I was waaaay behind. I'm just now finishing my first set of assaults.

the most annoying part is the assaults and the slow pace of einherjar imo >< alexandrite is really piss easy...i finished 30k in no time even in the worst supply/demand and prices of alexandrite.

I wonder how the changes to Nyzul are going to effect Alex acquisition. Either SE is just throwing us a bone, or it will actually be easier to obtain Alex.

dunno. if i do another mythic, ive like 7months from now until id have 100k again, so im not in a hurry..would rather see alex fall to 5k each then i could buy 30k in no time, so im not worried too much :<

tbh, id rather build a friend a mythic since i already have one. maybe i'll make this guy i like a nirvana~ tho he hasn't played in a while

Do another pew pew!~

^o^ made my first own spellcast from scratch! made one for my whm, tried using my blm/rdm one as a reference to see how to set it up. it wasn't working for the longest time until i figured out that whoever made my rdm/blm overcomplicated everything with needless junk.

Every time I see this I cry. It really makes me think about what I've become in game, and regret some of the actions I've taken over the years. I really long for the old days.

I must be overly tired or something... I'm an emotional mess right now.

why are you an emotional mess?

I think it's a combination of a lack of sleep and that video.

mhmm lack of sleep always makes me an emotional mess too

I'm in love x.x

So is he, with himself by the looks of it. /thumbsdown

Good Morning Loves!

This made me LOL

not to sound ignorant or anything but i have a question. why is it when LGBT players (for a number of games i play) feel they need to put the words "as a gay person," or "gaymer" at the beginning of every post? to me this feels as if that poster needs to define themself by their sexuality.

what im getting at is, what's the point of saying that? isnt the entire point of wanting equal rights and treatment to have people look past frivolous details a la race, sex, sexuality, etc? just seems like a pointless detail to add to a post, as i feel that it shouldnt matter about adding depth your opinion regardless.

!!
I found this on Youtube once and watched it and I had the same reaction to it!

That video is so sad! ;;

It makes me regret little things too. And big things. We had a linkshell, the UnholyAlliance, with me, my husband, my brother-in-law, and our rl friends John, Jake, and Joel, and some folks we met in-game, Kengi, Haunt, Pinklily.

First one quit the game, then another, then another. It became just me, my husband, and Pink. Pink was my best friend for over two years. We texted while I was at school and she was at work, we logged on and just sat in our mog houses sending tells to each other for hours, she was the first person I searched every day when I got on. Sometimes I still log on and begin to type /sea all pink. ><

I made another friend who didn't like Pink. I thought they'd grow to like each other eventually, so I just ignored their conflict. When Pink told me the other girl was cruel to her, I basically told her to grow up, get over it. Not in quite those words, but pretty much.

Pink quit. She left for a "break" and never came back. That was a couple years ago and I still miss her, still carry around a signed hammock she made me in my bazaar. I don't speak to the other girl at all anymore, I think she's certifiably insane. But it's quite too late now, Pink is not coming back. And neither is Bo, or Rebelution, or Anubiss, or Kengi, or Haunt. I still have that pearl. My husband and I put it on sometimes and run around Vana'diel. We're the only two members of Unholy, but I won't drop it. If Pink ever comes back, that will be the ls she has equipped.

You know oddly enough. The very first person I was getting wiped to by Boogies in Valkrum Dunes, I still do stuff with in-game. We may not be in the same LS anymore. But yes I do agree I have become a loot-*** over the years. its all about ME ME ME! lol jk

Just all of my [+]'s... I think we all have stories very similar to this. Times when true adventure was making it through Valkrum alive, or making to to Jeuno for the first time. I find that video to be a codification of what I truly miss about FFXI. I know there is no going back, and the game is profoundly different, but part of me wishes I could, to quote the all-powerful Cher, turn back time.

Gaspee you made me cry and sex wasn't even involved. Thanks a lot -.-

I don't know. Probably attention seekers who are insecure. Who knows. I generally dislike that.

Those are the ones you avoid. Not everyone is like that. I don't tell anyone unless they ask specifically cause its never a big deal with me.

Or they think I'm a girl.. that seems to be the trend when it comes to me >_> my typing style is womanly I guess?

I get called a woman all the time...

I'm guilty of thinking narshe was a woman at first.

I really don't want to turn this thread into a civil rights debate. Because that's not with this thread is about.

It's actually very common. "American homophobic culture" has forced many homosexuals to form sub-cultures, in which many only associate and feel safe with themselves. So its not surprising that many identify themselves as gay, its a form of "inclusion and exclusion" at the same time. If u want i can forward u some articles on this via email, which explain it a bit better. Its already discussed at the university level in many anthropology and human sexuality classes.

Wait aren't you?! jk <3

Edit: PS Hi Gaspee and Ruiz!

I'm not old enough to be called a woman!!! Damnit! lolz

Heya sevy n ruiz. Good afternoon. Hows Glavoid farming?
