All I can do is shrug my shoulders at half your comments. Some of you have been helpful, while some have blatantly been some bitches as I must put it. I started this game in sept of 2010, I played for awhile through some of the shittiest times this game has had. I am a big fan of the entire final fantasy genre and own them all. I still play ffVII on the ps3. I was in a good linkshell when I left this game in 2011, I came back and it was dead, everyone in it has quit the game. i have tried to get with other people since starting back. I either get ignored or hrmm ignored, I'm guessing because most who still play are way advanced in it then I currently am. For the people who pointed out Ul'dah as a place to gather people to party with, thanks for the tip. I did notice that alot more people hang out around ul'dah then the other regions.. kinda sad really, but I will start trying there to find a group to play with who also enjoys gridania.
