I must thank you guys for the amusing reads. Like all of you, I too have missed the game. However, I found other things more constructive to do with my time instead of ranting about the game being off. To complain about the game being off is just selfish. Go out and play some basketball. See a bad movie! Complain about it, but see it! Go on a date! Yes, I know that proposition is scary. There is sunlight to be had. I see a lot of you have a keyboard cowboy persona.
The game will return. It makes money for SE. If they didn't HAVE TO, they would not have shut down the servers. If you don't agree with the game being down temporarily... go play another one. Give some other company your 15 bucks. I can guarantee that your 15 will not be missed. You have choices you can make and some of you choose to whine about it and sound selfish... i.e. I wanna wanna wanna business wanna wanna SE wanna wanna wanna... We get it. You want to play.
Go take a hot shower... because there are a million people in Japan that can't. Visit your relatives. Japan is burying theirs. Go outside and throw the football around. Now imagine your entire neighborhood gone and you can't buy all the food you want. Water is hard to come by and you're pretty sure your friends are dead. All of that pales in comparison to your game addiction.

But i do not know why i post cause you are apparently super human.
by the way I have seemed to lose a sock, would you be able to tell me where it is? And the proper measure I should take in trying to locate it? Or should I just STOP my everyday life until my poor sock is found? -

You cant compare FF to Metal Gear solid cause there are only a few hundred thousand who play that online... FF is in millions.... NOW if it was something like Modern warfare1/2 where u have millions i could say yes but its not.

jus like if the goverment in US told them to shut down something or ask them too and they said no. Do you think the government isnt jus gonna DO it on there own? its called respsect, the government is gonna ask before tellin and if they dont listen after tellin the government is gonna do it on there own cause why thats what governments do whats BEST for the country
You really have no clue bout economy or anything how governments work go back to school
i dunno u tlel me apparently ur the all mighty seeing god here so tell me what u should do bout ur sock, wait i know stick it in ur mouth and shut up -
03-22-2011, 02:54 AMArconisUmm where are you getting your numbers from they don't have more subs then FF and there only on one platform PS3 where as FFXI is on Xbox, PS3 and PC. Its a much smaller operation and less resources then FFXIQuote:

Look it up, i could care less that you play it, but the facts tell the truth. Geez i love how you just sit on a frigging doughnut & you are now a doughnut maker.Quote:

03-22-2011, 03:08 AMNightDaggerDUDE stop saying you know the damn numbers & facts from the top of your head. Take some time and do some research then produce a valid argument. You JUST said that FFXI has millions of players?????? If this was the cause would we not need a server merge but maybe servers added? last count for FFXI was around 227k. MGS was 330k so unless my math is wrong MGS is larger. Hech there are more people playing farmville on facebook then FFXI. If you even did a little research SE needs to have atleast 200k players to break even. So with the numbers the way they are they are not making much money right now, so this could be a huge reason why they are not up & running. Could be an escape goat for them to eliminate the game & try to make a buck elsewhere for now. We do not know, but somehow you do?Quote:

But wife wants to watch t.v so have fun, time to do something productive for a bit, hope we can continue this later. Heck I may switch servers to continue once the game is back up in, what did you say 2 months???? -
