Shinies!<Shiny> FC is now recruiting! We believe in Friends and Fun!
Are you tired of not feeling like you're part of a community?
Are you tired of the elitist jerks who give you a hard time and have no patience?
Are you tired of never having anyone to group with or not having any friends?
Then Shinies! just might be the FC for you!
Our central tenet is GAO! (Good Attitudes Only!). People are what matters most and we're here to make lasting friends and build a real community on our server.
-Only friendly people with good attitudes are encouraged to join Shinies! Nobody wants to play with someone who yells at them or puts them down. The game is so much more fun with nice fun people!
-I work hard to keep Shinies! friendly and fun. If anyone from my FC trolls you or outright attacks you without provocation, whether you are in the FC or not, let me know (please provide screenshots if possible!).
-There is no discussion of religion or politics in FC chat as these topics only tend to lead to badness!
-Adult humor and cursing are fine so long as it isn't directed at fellow members. We are all adults, just do be mindful of the feelings of others, and if someone seems upset or offended, please try to be considerate of them.
-We prefer for members to be 16 or older. If you are younger than 16, please speak to me about your situation, and depending on your own personality and maturity, you may be accepted anyway.
-There are no gear, level, or skill requirements to join Shinies! We can teach you and help you level and gear!
-The only thing we're intolerant of is the Grumpity Grumpules who try to ruin the game for everybody else. Attitude is Everything!
-We are Rank 8 and we keep up 2 buffs everyday and have a set schedule on which to run them with the highest priority given to XP buffs. :)
-We currently have over 350 members(the vast majority of them active!) and are still growing! Our goal is 400 active members! We are currently the 3rd largest FC on the server!
-We have a special Linkshell dedicated to RPers called The Well of Souls!
-We Coordinate with 6 Shinies! Linkshells, run by me, to find even more people for Grouping!
-We form groups for absolutely everything and have 3 running BCoB groups with more on the way!
-We do tons of Primals, Relic Bosses, Crystal Tower, and Tome Farming runs so we're great for gearing up and love to help people learn!
-We also do lowbie dungeons and storymode dungeons and are a very helpful lot of people. Newbies are encouraged to join to get your questions answered and have people to group with!
-All of our members have chest access and it's easy to get your friends invited!
-We are greatly enjoying all the new content of 2.1 with frequent runs of CT, the New 4-mans, and some PvP!
-For Housing we're looking at saving for a large house for Gridania first and then two smalls or a small and a medium for the other two!
If you are already in an FC that you adore, we have Linkshells for you too! We work to coordinate between them and the FC for group finding! http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...ing-community!
Looking for a Good FC to Merge Into?
As of right now, we are offering 'merger packages' for a couple more FCs who have nothing but nice people. The main thing that matters is that all of your people are nice and fit with our GAO! Tenet!
We only have room for about 150 more members total, so any FC with over 150 active members would probably not fit at this point!
Your FC leader will be given a special rank in our FC as well as your second and third in commands(if you have them).
You will be given your own special section on our forum(if you'd like).
You will all be happily invited to become a part of the wonderful Shiny pile, without having to lose any of your people!
With the new buffs and cost of points to keep them up, plus the new housing costs, merging could be greatly beneficial!
Despite our size we maintain a warm cozy feeling and do not hesitate to help out our members with anything and everything!
As a merging FC you will gain access to more friends and more perks! We keep up 2 lvl 2 buffs 24/7! =)
I'm always happy to discuss terms of merging and work out anything that really matters to you, the gm, or your members and officers!
Previously running static groups will not be affected by joining Shinies! You will be free to continue running your static just as it has always run, but have access to a larger FC from which to pull in new people when needed!
You will gain access to our forum which is used to build community and to help keep our Raiding rosters visible and organized (this forum is also available for Shinies! linkshell members who aren't in the FC!). :)
If you would like to get to know us and run some things with us before entertaining the idea of merging, you are free to join one of our Linkshells first with a few of your members and group with us some! Whether you decide to merge or not, you will always be welcomed in the Linkshells!!
For anyone who has any interest, just find me on Yuyaki Chibiaki, Nishywah Shinywah, Lilathus Thelamir, or Altheras Cloudchaser and give me a poke! Looking forward to seeing you all in game!
If I'm not on, you may also just apply directly to the FC, we usually have plenty of people on who can ok applications! You can also contact any member directly and just have them refer you to someone who can invite! All people ranked raider or higher can invite!
Or if you would rather you can apply via our forum listed below!
