New Player Looking to get Helpful Friends :)

[Thixy]

Hellos I am currently playing on Carbuncle and would love to have people to play with. I did start playing with my brother and a friend but they have since quit the game and kinda left me to fend for myself. I have a good grasp on the game so far and would like to do groups and or raids. I have been guild leaders on EverQuest and done alot of raiding in WoW, Also have played a bit of Final Fantasy 14 but FFXI always seems like there is so much more to do.

Guess in short I would love a social kind of Linkshell (I think thats what its called?). And one that I can do Raids later on with.

My Goals are to get lvl 99 Dragoon and White mage.. Altho everything to 99 would be awesome lol
