What's your Grand Company and why you choose it?

After starting in Ul'dah I had pretty much soured on the horrible people running that city, the Gridanians seemed a bit useless so that meant the Maelstrom seemed the most effective and go get'em

I joined the Flames to get this purple skirt.

For me it was the Maelstrom, because they looked the coolest. Black & Red always looks cool. They had the best looking gear from their gear seller, especially the physical DPS & magic chest pieces. If the Crystal Braves had been a choice, I would’ve probably went with them. That Light Blue on Dark Blue looks awesome, too. For me it was just aesthetics. As simple as that.

Flames. Primarily for the aesthetic, but if you wanted to clean house in FL during the HW days you picked Flames regardless. Even during Mael's dominance of SB, with premades and anyone who was generally competent jumping over to red, I stuck with the Flames throughout. With them to this day.

I still feel sorry for what the Adders were subjected to in that era of FL, prior to the freelance queue. Went through hell and back to play yellow.

Mao stays with Flames. Mao serves Sultana. Other two GCs full of tree huggers and greasy pirates! BLARGH!

Don't underestimate "tree huggers". Back at the original launch of WoW my tree hugging druid frequently threw live explosives at ppl that didn't respect nature. :P lol
