Thanks a lot guys! I got a wireless keyboard and it's working great! The world I'm in is Jenova so if you guys ever have a character there look me up or something. Also I had one other question. I've been getting a lot of requests to join a free company. Should I just join the first one to ask me or should I wait to find one where I know a few people?

Lots of guilds spam invites to people as a quick way to boost their numbers. Sometimes, you get lucky and they're a great group to hang with. More often tho, people go in and out as if there was a revolving door.

My opinion, keep an eye out for people shouting in towns about their guild, and chat with them if you like their pitch. I found my current guild that way, and they're awesome folks that share a similar playstyle as me.

What I recommend about the FC thing is avoid the spammers. They sometimes have a group of nice people and helpful people... but most of the time they are very quiet FC's with hundreds of people that almost never respond to requests.

As you play the game in the early levels, you will encounter many people. You will probably team up with some for FATE's and other events through your play, and this will help you feel out people and see what your looking for in a FC. You will find many people like to help newer players by running them through low level instances and the like. I''d keep these types in mind and try to join FC's with these types of players, although, keep in mind we all have things to do and not always will people be able to drop their things and help. Sometimes it'll take a while before you may be able to complete some group events.
