New players on Leviathan

[Donwu]

If you need an LS or a group just to help out occasionally (we'd prefer if you'd join the LS ;) ), please contact myself or anyone from TeamShortBus LS. We have become proud of helping newer players and showing the ropes of all jobs. We guarantee to have someone with the job you want to play leveled. Even better, we all don't take the game, or ourselves, too seriously, so it's as much fun as you could have on a video game. Don't worry about how much your toon gets killed, we will hold a contest once the death stats come out to see who has the most deaths! Remember, it's just a game Focker. We all started somewhere ^^

Life long Pally here...i've died countless times. But that's part of the job aye?

Just came back to the game three days before this meltdown in japan, hoping things get back together soon. I'll be looking for ya in Levi, My old shell Hikari transfered over from Remora. Lost a lot of people it seems...

Anywho, see in the world Don!

[Donwu]

[Ruvion]

Hey Don. I've seen you around in PJ and seen your ls. Love the name, btw. I'm a long time player and would love to get a pearl and help out some of the newer folks on our server when I'm not doing stuff with my static abys group.

[Donwu]

awesome and awesome ^^ tepco willing we will see you guys tuesday ^^ idk if you guys have ever partied or done stuff with rivindale, but he was the inspiration for the shell name. he isnt just a short bus passenger, we cant let him sit near a window because of the spit stains from licking it. lookin forward to it :)

[Ruvion]

I think I was in an LS with Riv a few months ago, names familiar anyhow. Cool, got my fingers crossed that we'll be back up and running on Tuesday^^.

Hey, I was actually on Carbuncle for the longest time and had a decent to wimpy character, but now i'm back and looking for a fun LS. You should be hearing from me once the servers come back online (those poor people, and so self sacrificing. My heart goes out to all those who lost loved ones in that disaster) Character name is Saleene. Thanks for your post!

[Haglaz]

Sweet! Can I wear my helmets and my shouldermapad and eat cotton candy, and moon people outside of the shortbus causetheirnotcoollikeweare?! can i can i can i?!?!

hehe...looking forward to meeting you folks in the game. When i left off, WotG had just come out and I wasn't feeling the need for it. But, like many things in one's life; looking for a legal, non socio-pathic way to vent frustrations of our liberal run united states is always needed.


...hmm, too much?

[Donwu]

Well, Friday instead of today QQ. But at least we have a goal date!!!

I never really rolled with a tag of liberal or conservative, if I did have to choose though I'd probably lie in moderate based on view. I pretty much stick by my opinion of vote candidate, not party. If only Obama could pull a Clinton and get over a lot of the hurdles by becoming more of a moderate than a liberal, we would likely start back down the road of prosperity that we were on when that joint effort left Washington. 5 of those 8 were some damn fine years... But thats a whole other thread :P

At any rate, just glad to have some good new folks around. :) See you in 3 days.

BTW forgot to mention, there are some things that I usually give a heads-up about before you join. Nothing major, just a preference issue of the members personally. Being as diverse as the shell is, I throw the heads-up out before hand.

[Ordoric]

hmmm shortbuss hmm i remeber you guys i got 2 accounts i might need a ls 76 brd one account 85 whm blm sch 76 drk

[Lamer]

I am originally from Cerebreus, but I have been playing the game for less than 30 days. My free trial is up next month but I guess it will be another free one because of the earthquake. I made an account there [on leviathan] to play with my irl friend who is like a veteran or whatever. I will message you in the game. My name on there is super. I can use any help from ppl that are on. Sometimes it's annoying for the same person to keep answering my questions.

[Donwu]

Good to meet all the new people! Just a reminder, if I haven't seen you in-game yet or something hit me up and I will make my way out to pearl you or will delegate it out because that's how we roll :P happy hunting folks!

[Aaerron16]

[Aerir]

If you all are looking for members I am somewhat a returning player looking to get back into FFXI.

Allow me to explain why my shell is terrible for good ol Nuen there.

We did a dynamis run in jeuno under the new updated dynamis conditions. Pre-spawned mobs, depops (keep depops in mind), low currency rates, etc. We started to camp near the ??? for the Boss pop and proceeded to pull some mobs and start killing. We shifted camp a bit during that and inched closer to the AH, and a few people died in unfortunate spots. Another group was in zone as well and were camped in the spot we were in originally since we had moved a bit. They then moved past where our people had died, and proceeded to wipe. We were trying to get to our party members (2 dead) raised to come back to camp, so i told the other group i would fleesac a whole zone in order for all the dead, not just ours, to get raised. Fled, 2hred, pulled 40 mobs to zone and proceeded to die. Nuen (I wont use the ingame name because thats not how we roll as a shell.) had grabbed about 6 mobs near one of our dead, then proceeded to die. They didnt get sleepga by the blm. Im not sure what was said at that point because it was all in tell between him and the blm, but precious xp was lost and its difficult to get xp back now in less than 45 seconds, and all 6 mobs depopped instead of having to kill all 6 because there was then shared hate. One thing i do know is we had 2 blms in attendance - one who is one of the better blms on leviathan, Junan, and one who is a 40 year old grown man who isnt about drama. All this happened on the SECOND fleesac of the zone i did to get parties (all in zone) raised. I was then immediately told that the whole shell was about self and that he was leaving. Now, any and all currency was freefall, and nobody lotted. Boss pop items went to officers in shell in order to pop on subsequent runs. The only piece of AF that dropped was a PUP piece, and our AF dyna policy is if you have the job leveled and intend to use it, you can lot. If nobody intends to use, it is free after that point. Also, first and only event in about the 2 weeks he was in shell that he attended, despite having offers to come get zone wins in abyssea.

You can read that post and determine that our shell is terrible and selfish, or you can ask just about anyone else on the server who knows me or my shell's rep and make your own mind up. Also, by all means check my gear on the AH site. It's not mega pimp like you would see in most event shell leaders. I allow all my members to get the goods the same as me. Thanks. Sorry for the long post.

I just returned after a 1 year break from the game. It appears that most of the people I knew have left the game, so I'm looking for a new linkshell. In the past I usually leveled my 75 BST, but since returning I have focused on my WAR which is now 67. I hope to finish up some missions and get involved in Abyssea. I think you guys might have a few of my former shell mates in your linkshell as well. I hope to get in touch you with soon.

[SpriritWithin27]

I think I am on the leviathon world and i am situated in vana'diel in the nation of San 'd'oria???? and im a newbie and have no clue what to really do????

[Royle]

i'm on leviathan (because, you know, favorite FF summon :P) i'm a total scrub and don't even know how to join a linkshell, I read some guides and went to valkurm dunes to party, and nobody is there (derp) and now I don't know what to do. my character name is also royle, and I need halp!

[Gropitou]

Might want to try posting in > COMMUNITY > Worlds > Leviathan

[R3D5KU11]

I'm a newish player, started way back when and had a huge gap inbetween and now can't seem to find anyone to party with for the basic game itself. Would love to find a good LS to join up with that still plays :)

[Arcon]

You're just as welcome to join us if you want, and we can give you tips on where to party, but not many of us still level up themselves, so unfortunately you may not find party members within the LS. However, most parties evolve randomly these days, and there's almost always someone EXPing. If you want to chat with some people and have some advice, and get help with missions and/or quests, let me know ingame if you see me, or contact one of my minions.
