This made me lol.

My favorite content is the 24 man raids because I like the look of a huge battle and seeing all the glamours people come up with.

Also when I commend someone, I commend them based on how rare their race is. Elezen, Roegadyn & Hrothgar get my votes for being more unique. If I were to get killed, depending on how fast I get raised, I would then give it to the player that raised me. If I get ignored, then no commend for you.

Another thing is I don’t listen to the in game music. After years of playing, I can’t listen to the music anymore. I need to listen to my favorite music when I play.

Interrupting that glare uptime?

I once shot a man in Eulmore just to watch him die. Fortunately that man was Ran'jit, so nobody cared.

I'm not really wearing pants, they're just painted on...

I like to find a cozy place to sit and wait for the duty finder to pop.

My favorites are inside a house either at Fallgourd Float or the Observatorium.

I keep wanting to make suggestion and/or idea threads or comment of pre-existing threads but halfway through I keep thinking "What's the point? The games no going to try to improve." and just delete them. （（●´∧｀●））

I really like this kind of screenshot. Very neat, thanks for sharing.

lasering people in Puppet’s Bunker is still very funny

Whenever I start to think that maybe I should be doing better in life than I am, I will log in and go to the Limsa Aetheryte. I immediately feel better about myself.

I'm addicted to doing all the silly little quests that nobody else seems to care about, sometimes spending the day clearing an entire zone. Occasionally I'll stumble upon something rewarding, but most of the time I just enjoy helping out the poor, mindless npcs. I do wish they gave a little bit better xp. Most often, you can kill 1 mob and get better xp than an hour-long questline.

Years ago when I first started playing I took great care to always look "appropriate" for dungeons and overland zones, only wearing my silly and/or more revealing glamours in towns. These days I do everything in whatever glam I'm liking at the time, be it traditional type armor, or something more like a bikini or maybe a giant chicken suit.

I am terrified of talking to people or joining FCs in this game due to my past experiences with people both in-game and outside of the game, genuinely traumatized and don't trust anyone in this game when they try to interact with me, to the point that I actively try to be as unapproachable as possible. And to add to this, I ESPECIALLY do not trust Miqote players, haven't met one in years that wasn't either a creep, unironically pretended to be a cat, an asshole, or caused drama(yes I am aware it's not all but again, years of dealing with this community, most of the worst parts happening when I was a minor)

Stormblood is the best expansion in the game, it was back then, it is now.

Apartments are better.

I still get anxiety when I tank with randoms just due to how world of Warcraft community treat tanks. Also hate how overly sensitive to community is compared to WoW seen people get offended by the dumbest things and it resulted in drana maybe me getting a little bit older but I've never had an issue with a guild in WoW horde side in forever, I got kicked out of my first FC in this game because I later an officer were too focused on destiny 2 and not scheduling anything in this game and I got called a unruly toxic member and kicked..

Thanks! I try to come up with more unique outfits so I don’t look like every other character. It’s really hard to do.

Believe it or not, it’s my favorite type of shot to take. I just put auto run, flip the camera and take a shot. I get really cool shots like that. I do it all the time.

I like to play race when doing these raids and I like to see how the running looks with the crowd. I love crowd pictures, too.

Another confession is in the much maligned Fall Guys event, I like to hang out at the red pillars after I qualify to watch people get punched up in the air. It’s funny.

Oh hey, you found my twin.

I skipped through the ARR-Stormblood story the first time I played and I've been chipping away at New Game+ to see the story.

Lahabrea and the Ultima Weapon wasn't the cause of the explosion that destroyed the Praetorium... I went atomic...

I also might be the actual cause of Thancred not being able to manipulate Aether as well since I hit him over the head full force with my staff which was still overflowing with energy at the time despite him saying it wasn't possessed anymore because that seemed like exactly what an ascian would say. >.>

Also I took a small bite out of Mao's tail when she wasn't looking... She is extremely tasty... :3

You are basically my twin. With an eyepatch. And dark hair.

I confess that I play other games as well.. and take time off FFXIV....

Only Mahjong and PvP are enjoyable currently and both lack rewards.

I don't play the game a whole lot anymore. I just log on to pvp a little and then call it a day. Also, I think miqote, aura, and viera are incredibly lazy race designs.

I jump all the time. Not in dungeon. But when I'm waiting in a queue in a city, I run and jump everywhere. I've never seen anyone do the same.

Quite true for the last part. They are humans. With ears and tails. Kinda look like a cheap costume.

Ooooh confession time lets see...

I spend hours watching the Lalas in Limsa I never really interact with them merely just watching. I find them fascinating like going to a zoo or something.

Despite trying my very best to understand that not all combat mentors are nasty and bad at the game I've found myself glaring with hate at anyone with that icon now.

I've signed up for the same trial / raid boss multiple times in a row just to enjoy the music full well knowing I could just listen to that music on youtube.

Any tank who turns on tank stance after I already have mine active should be punished by listening to a Lala laugh for 2 hours in a row.

So true, citizens. I'll just make my own race by adding horns to my Roe and I'll call it the "Satyr" race. Now my level of creativity rivals that of Square's. I know true Satyrs from mythology have hooves instead of feet but you know, that's just too many assets to redesign and I don't feel like working.




For duty and valor.

Just wear the Reindeer Hooves or those BLM pvp boots.（*´▽｀*）

As a male character, whenever I see someone /playdead in town, I switch to MNK, stand over them, take off my pants, and spam /bstance to teabag. I live for the various reactions I get.

I feel fabulous when I LB3 on Dancer.

If there's no iminent danger after an aoe, sometimes in Party Finder groups I purposedly hold my ogcd heals just to make sure the co-healer is actually helping topping people off.

(and the sad truth is that there are a lot of people won't do it and even surprisingly, it's mostly WHMs lol)

I remember when the Au ra were first revealed pre-HW I was so disappointed with the way they looked. I was really hoping we got something that looked like the dragonborne from DnD but instead we get a human with horns and a tail. The Hrothgar is the only true animal race in FFXIV.

It's like what this forum member said:

Lmao, someone at SE hire this guy already.

I played a lalafell on the cloudtest servers and now I'm tempted to buy a fantasia and make it permanent after seeing how much cuter life is on the other side and how much better the hairs and outfits fit on a smaller race.

The cloudtest servers were also the most fun I've had in FF14 in a long long long time. It felt free. The community was hilarious and chaotic (and occasionally inappropriate). Playing with EU/JP was actually ridiculously fun and refreshing. All the people who were like "why bother, no reward, it'll just go away" weren't here and the only people who did come were all just in it because they love pressing buttons. And man, was it nice. Smooth runs. Fast runs. Doing trivial stuff with people and it felt fun because we'd compete to see who could hit harder, just dumb fun stuff like that. Playing with JP/EU and using auto-translate to be like {hello} {please send help} and stuff. I came back to crystal after the cloud ended, and within 20 minutes of being here I was dead on the arena of ridorana because some level 70 goober panic-sprinted his stack marker into our group's stack marker and killed like 9 people. I was just like, "damn, I'm back on Crystal alright."

I keep a male au ra in my basement. He didn't want to be there at first, but he enjoys it now.

Citizen, I'll even recommend the new race be put on the cash shop for $40. That will really make my job application stand out to Square.

Of course, citizen, how could I forget. Thank you for contributing your idea to the Weeaboo Police Department.



But to go back to the main topic of this thread, I confess that I've been involved in Limsa Lominsa's Lalafell Enforcement and Removal Operations. Lalafell crime has receded by nearly 25% from last year which shows that our Lalafell control tactics are working effectively.




Fair winds and full sails.

I once asked a PF leader to give me lead to invite a friend, and accidentally kicked him out of the party instead of promoting him.
