Hi i have a fc but its very cliquey and not really involved in it. Im an older casual gamer trying to complete slowly but struggling to get on in dungeons and encountering abuse. Be nice to join an active casual fc. Thanks. Not sure how i swap fcs though.

Great company. So hard to find a casual company with good players but this is one!

I guess it's time to give you another update on our current status for anyone interested.
As the game has been out for a while now most of our members have accumulated around lvl 40-50. There is still a good few people at lower levels and off-classes being levelled, but the majority of our players have shifted towards the later stages of the game.
We do have a core of about 40 active members who play regularly, leaving us with about 25 people online during EU peak hours and 5-10 during main NA and AUS peak time.
Our activities are a happy mix of endgame stuff (We're working on killing titan hardmode with a pure FC group, have a hand full of people who already got past titan and everything before titan is pretty much easy "farming". We don't do coil yet but probably will when more of the FC are ready for it.), but we also do any of the pre-50 dungeons if anyone needs them and have a good few social events set up (e.g. a monthly FC picture, chocobo races, hide and seek, a quizz run, etc).
All of the content we do, including the endgame stuff, is done casually without much stress and no set schedules people are forced to attend to. It is fun and easygoing, but as a result also a lot slower than in a progression FC.
Most of our members come from all across europe, with the odd australian and american. In european time we're most busy in the evenings with a good few members online in the afternoon and usually only a few in the mornings. Weekends are busy throughout the day. Most of our events are taking place around 8 pm GMT+0.
We are having a ventrilo server, but joining is optional. We mainly use it for tough primal fights, and occasionally for just chatting.
We also initiated a mentoring system to supply new members with someone to help them settle in, or give advice and help with actual gameplay, should it be desired.

Hey there. Im looking for a FC now. I have been having a hard time getting into this game because of the pressure and drama that ive encountered. I played FF11 for years and, yah, there was always a few morons, end gamers that knew it all, but i was ok with that. Starting this game as a Glad/PLD was so much fun, till i started partying. I was a good tank in FF11. Well, in FF14, according to my first two dungeon runs, where i was swore at, asked if i was drunk or just afk the whole time, told to just leave, i figured maybe i wasnt cut out for tanking in this game. So i started up some DPS. Less swearing but still so much pressure and no communication. So in short, (lol) im just looking for a group that just wants to have fun. I get pressure and drama at work all day. I dont find getting yelled at in game as a fun way to relax. I just want to enjoy this game again.:D

Hello Timbo :)
Looks like you'll fit in nicely, I'll keep an eye out for you ingame when the servers are back up. If I don't find you, you can also get in touch with any of the officers mentioned in the opening post.

Hi guys,
I am a mature old-timer looking for a friendly, casual and stress free FC.
I have played MMOs since the beginning of DaoC and plowed through most games I have come across. From running a competitive guild way back in the DaoC days to being a casual player with family/job taking up most of my time. Now I just enjoy exploring the various ascpects of the games at my own pace. Playing this game though I realise I am missing out on a lot not being in a FC and I miss some friendly chatting with some likeminded people.
I have only played FFXIV for a month and I am just exploring the various classes trying to decide what to focus on. Leaning toward a Summoner or a Scholar... or a Bard... or a Warrior... or.. too many options! I realise I have to pick one and play through the Main Quest first! At the moment a Arcanist.... I think.
You guys seem like a FC that would fit me perfectly
I hope you'll have me. I play mostly from 9pm GMT

Hello Zimzelen,
You sound like a good fit and yes there are a ton of options as far as which class to play.
If you could send a tell to either myself (Kimiko Kaneko) or another officer (Nikki Spencer, Flare Corona, Masaru Katsura, Messup Roges, Mui Tayuun, Surpanakha Verlorn, Tristus Psygone, Ugore Cylan, Yonah Lunarsong) and we can discuss this more and see about getting you a invite to Vagabond Knights :)
Hope to hear from you soon

**Update**
We are still recruiting any class and level
Vagabond Knights has currently undergone new management. Even though the leadership of this FC has changed, we will remain a casual free company.
We are still looking for applicants that will fit what is posted on the first page, and re-posted here:
At the very core of our Free Company is enjoying this game together in a stress free and friendly environment. We all like to enjoy everything FFXIV has to offer without the pressure and elitist attitude a lot of progression FCs have but also avoid the lack of familiarity and teamwork that plagues most of the "invite anything that moves" FCs.
There are two things that all of us have in common, and those two things I (and the others as well) are looking for in an applicant.
1. We like to do things together. No matter if it's just running dungeons, or chatting about Indian cuisine, we like to be social and we like to be friends. If you are not looking for that, we are probably not the right FC for you.
2. We like to enjoy the game without stress, drama or being told when and how to play. No member will ever be told by me or any officer to level a certain class/job for a raid, to be available for certain times or to play their characters in any specific way. In return we ask you to respect the other members real life responsibilities and choices just as much as you'd like your own respected.
Vagabond Knights recently purchased a house (Catnip Manor) in Lavender Beds, Ward 1, Plot 15 so our members have been busy decorating and experimenting with the house/furniture designs.
Teamspeak 3 is available if you'd like to use it.
We have also, recently formed an alliance with two other free companies, to help each other out with level 50 content, and are in a Link Shell with them here are there recruitment pages:
Aetherial Scions: http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...endly-acolytes!
ViiS – VII Seals: http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...erience-it-all

Our recruitment is on temporary hold.
Over the past few weeks we have recruited a lot of new members. While this is a good thing in ways, we would like to give a chance for everyone to get to know each other, before taking on anymore new members. If you have already applied, but haven't received your invite yet, you are still welcome to join.

Recruitment is now Open again for Vagabond Knights If you would like to read our current update please see the bottom of page 11.
