    which certainly sounds to me like you're only here during campaigns. But maybe that wasn't what you meant to suggest.
    Are you purposely cutting things out and Ignoring what I said? I said PEOPLE "I look forward to returning for a few weeks every 6months or so, will not be returning for this one." Also, common man, I've said it a dozen times now, the reason I was "complaining" is because I am hoping they wont switch the November campaign to Christmas and New Years again next year.

    I'm not purposely doing anything. I simply quoted and explained what led me to my conclusion.

    And as I said, the campaign shuffling was to prevent scheduling conflicts across their products. I don't find it likely that this is a permanent arrangement. They aren't locked into the same time frames year after year. Just because they held XYZ campaign in March one year doesn't mean it has to be March the next time. it could be April, or any other time.

    Aside from all that:

    I'm sorry their campaign timing didn't align with your desires, and it's very likely the FFXI team is too. As was noted, they had to move the campaign to avoid it conflicting with campaigns in other games they service. I wouldn't assume that this is a permanent fixed schedule and that tehy plan to do it exactly this way next year. In fact, they probably wont. But in my original point, I was simply saying that a campaign during the holidays likely benefits a lot of people, just as it inconveniences others. That was the case for you this time. Perhaps next time they'll be able to hold it when you' ll be able to take better advantage of it.
    First, here is a link to the forum rules https://support.na.square-enix.com/r...la=1&tag=forum I'm specifically citing "the following actions are not allowed while participating in the forums :Posting content that does not follow the theme of the category or thread."
    Also, I appreciate your sympathy. I'm just trying to make sure they get feedback, regardless of if people feel the same way as me or not.

    You falsely quoted, cutting out the beginning of the sentence. If you didn't purposefully do that, I suggest going back to see.

    My comments have been relevant to the thread. Not aligning with the exact minutiae of what you expected (which I can not know) is not a violation of the rules.

    I did not falsely quote anything. Every word I quoted came from your post. The section I quoted was the part that led me to my conclusion, and that's all there is to it. I'm sorry you feel there is some other motive to this, I assure you there is not.

    It is possible I may have misunderstood your meaning with the statement you made, and for that I am sorry. But again, there was nothing false about the quotation nor was there any intent to mislead. I took the comment to mean that you personally would not be returning when you were apparently speaking of a friend or friends. Clearly, I didn't read it correctly so for that I apologize.

    You know, I'm getting really sick and tired of the libel. I don't start fights. I reply honestly and earnestly to threads and other people, in fact, certain people in particular, react or fan flames etc. I don't come here to pick a fight. Just becuase it happens sometimes, that doesn't mean it's the reason I'm here. This thread has almost been more about beating up on me than it has been about the topic.

    Sometimes I misunderstand things and go off running with something not realizing I was originally mistaken. But I'm not here for fights and I don't really enjoy it. I just happen to have unpopular opinions a lot of the time.

    It extends into everything. I loved Dominion in league of legends. It wasnt popular and got deleted. I loved Twisted Treeline. It wasn't popular, but held on for a long time and eventually got deleted. I loved Team Free-for-all in Warcraft 3. It got deleted. Seems I just never seem to like the popular things lol

    What libel? Sounds more like you have an arm lenght of history with the locals. Not taking any side but got to let go of some and take others. Not like it matters anyways when there's like 5 people using the forums of FFXI. You're far too personal. It's kind of awkward to see such emotional replies.

    https://www.dictionary.com/browse/libel?s=t

    Libel, n. defamation by written or printed words, pictures, or in any form other than by spoken words or gestures.

    Libel contrasts with slander, which is making oral statements about a person or thing which they know to be or are provably false.

    Most of what they post about me is false, Pixela is under some delusion that I personally got various people banned from this forum, which is absurd, because I don't have the power to do so. Anyone who does get banned from the forums made the decision to break a forum rule and get caught doing it. That's their fault no matter what their reason is for posting it. Not thinking before posting is what leads to all the bad things that can occur on a forum, including my own failure to correctly understand the OP's meaning in this thread.

    Others on this forum just think I'm here with some kind of malicious intent purely because I disagree with people a lot. If we all agreed on everything, there honestly would be little need for a forum in the first place. What is there to discuss when everyone already feels the same way about any given subject? They created the "history," not me. I'm sorry that I don't often agree with the people in question, but that doesn't make me malicious or a troll or someone trying to start fights or get anyone banned. It's just not true, period.


    It's kind of awkward to see such emotional replies.
    They're the one's making this personal by specifically naming me in threads and associating me with false claims. I'd like nothing more than to get along with everyone, but it seems they've made up their minds. It's pretty frustrating trying to discuss anything when two of those "5" other people seem to be out to smear you.
