    This is where concepts like phasing and instancing could really shine. Oh well ;_;
    If the event was like that it would be pretty cool. I'm up for more of that delicious interaction and action >D!

    There's an idea. SE next year have Mumor discover the maws, and go into the past to rally the troops during the Crystal War. That way Once her enemy attacks, We can help participate by fighting along side her.

    Wow, talk about a derailing topic... I was at least hoping someone might've asked how you get the +1 gear here, not people megabashing each other.

    to get the +1 version of the gear you just sync with her again and talk to the moogle.

    you have to sync perfectly with her against cecelia or you dont get the +1.

    Second I never used it as an excuse. That was the assumption you guys have. As is the ability to use a form of spell checker. You may not believe this is true, but while in school w/o help. I infact got A's and B's for my writing. B's only due to my penminship. If I had a means to use spell checker, i would use it. If I had a grammar checker I would use. But on the Ps3 there are no such tools. As for block of text... I'm sure you guys read books... That is basic form of text set up any book. Also, with just the text I hit the limit the ps3 does infact have when it comes typing.

    At some point you guys need to be understanding as well. And not solely put blame on me.
    How about this, I have Predominately Inattentive ADHD (this is the formal name, ADD is not medically correct), and was diagnosed with it when I was 13. It's symptoms are regular, and have continued even to today, 7 years later. I have been on medication to treat it for 7 years (Initially Concerta, then Vyvanse after I turned 18), and said medication works properly. If you have ADHD and do not take your medication, you have no right to use it as a justification for anything, because the proper medication (note that some people only respond to certain medications, and get no benefit from others, so it's something that needs to be tried out with a psychiatrist's assistance) would fix anything caused by being inattentive. Additionally, being inattentive does not, in any way, justify the level of atrociousness present in your grammar and spelling. That you claim to have gotten moderately high grades for your compositional abilities, yet you communicate this poorly, implies that either you're simply lying, that your classes were incredibly easy, or that your teacher was very bad at their job.

    That said, spelling and grammar have no impact on whether someone is right or wrong (except when similarly spelled words with opposite meanings are involved, in which case it's an issue of apparent meaning). They do, however, make it incredibly difficult to communicate, because trying to read a post that looks like a 13 year old typed it with their toes causes headaches, and headaches lead to short tempers, which leads to pointless arguments.

    Some people argue that "I don't need to be grammatically correct, or spell things correctly, on the internet," because, "I type the way I speak" or "I'm relaxing, and don't want to put any thought into it" however, the former is almost never the case (as can be proven by simply reading most of said posts out loud) and the latter is simply an excuse to be lazy, and not a justifiable argument. Additionally, there is absolutely no reason to be lazy with your spelling, when both Firefox and Chrome have readily available free spellcheck plugins that will point out your spelling mistakes and correct them with a simple click or two. If you're using IE, that probably has one as well, but you should really stop using IE.

I only tried to explain that I have ADD, tried to explain how it effects me. And instead of being grown ups and cutting a lil slack, they continue to berate me. If you met me in person, or at least talk to me in game you would realise I'm not a bad person. Just misunderstood because how my typing reads like. Sometimes even rereading I do not see errors I also see people make spelling/ grammar all the time. I do not sit here and berate them. I don't bother correcting it. If i am THAT confused by it I try to ask what they mean. About the attacking... if anything it is on the defensive.
    yea... no... Yes, ADHD has been shown to be a genetic disorder in the majority of individuals (according to twin studies, anyway), but the general symptoms are the same for everyone. The degree of severity, differs, and which symptoms any given individual case experiences will vary somewhat, but it's not a matter of "every single case is different" or else it would be impossible to properly classify and diagnose it. Besides, ADHD really has absolutely no relation to your inability to properly spell, just your inability to notice that you fucked up your spelling. ADHD is not a fucking justification for terrible communication skills; my own ADHD tends towards the more severe side of the inattentive symptoms, and even if I go a month without my meds, my grammar and spelling are still nearly perfect, even if I can't focus to retain my train of thought for more than 5 seconds. You're just lazy and don't want to admit it, don't use ADHD as crutch, because it makes the rest of us who have it look bad.

    That, and people are going to continue attacking your spelling and grammar until you stop typing like a 13 year old kid who's never touched a keyboard before. Seriously, I don't have anything against you, but I cannot read your posts without getting a headache, because they're like reading youtube comments. Get Firefox or Chrome, get a spell check plug in, and then for a few days, before you post something, read it out loud and see how the pacing sounds. It will do wonders for your ability to convey what you're trying to say, and greatly improve how people view you, because poor grammar and spelling severely reduce one's apparent intelligence, regardless of how smart they actually are.

    There was an event way back when where you had to fight Dynamis skinned beast men in the three strongholds. If the Mumor event had you fighting with her in BCNM against something like that it would be cool. Stake some money on it and get return based upon some kind of style system and I believe you have a winner.

    i hate to ask this, but where is you get your info about it? I was diagnosed @ 7-8 years old. Been on ritalin from second grade to 12th grade. I didn't like the effect I had it. But most of your info is incorrect. Not all doctors are fully aware of ADD/ADHD. And they stupedly lumped it under one catagory. No 2 people actually have the same symtopms or have the same level of them. You guys twist my words WAY to much. But here is the big thing, taking meds will not make me type better. I also want to ask if you actually had a neurological exam along with the 3-4 page testing as well as cognitive testing. As i repeatedly said doctors just lable ppl with ADD/ADHD. I also read some pamphlets that also gave wrong info about it... Doctoters today do not know much about ADD/ADHD heck some don't even know about SVT...

    But why should I be temp ban.... you guys started with me first. You guys gets on my case first... And you guys START the topic first. I didn't bring up my ADD once when I first posted.

    Also the mumor event isn't rehashed as much. I like it. I also like her eternal vana Illusion move. The bikini isn't a reskill either really and if you look closely on the females the nails are painted white. As for a bcnm fight.... There already is one for 75+ in the new battle event. You guys got to remember level 1s are suppose to be able to do these holiday events.

    I personally think SE did a good job with the mumor protion of the event.

    If you dislike this part of the event just don't do it. There is still goldfish scooping and the 3 mini games. Don't ruin the event for those who do like it be calling for it removal. Thats not very fair thing to ask for because of ur dislike on how the mini game plays out. I personally like the mini game.

    If you didn't bring the subject up, how do we even know that you have ADD in the first place?

    Going to assume "reskill" is supposed to be reskin. Do you even know what reskin means? I think not.
