[Selindrile]

I haven't played bst in ages, I'm referring to Blu and Mnk which I play most now, but also all other DDs, and Whm which i also play would be an example of one who would want to group, it's not that I couldn't get an invite, it's that getting an invite would slow down my exp in non-aby areas on many jobs.
