How do you kill that which has no life?"

[Cherie]

Just something funny...

I hear so many people throw around the term "no life" or "no lifer" in this game. Maybe it's been long enough that people don't remember, but there was a South Park episode where they parodied a player that never logged off and did nothing but harass players by doing bizarre things. Unless there was a earlier reference, that was where that expression came from.

This isn't a real person. I mean, sure, there are players that might come close but, that idea of a person who actually doesn't log out is kind of a joke. What would they really spend time doing in a game like FFXIV if they stayed logged in all the time? There are plenty of caps in this game to prevent anyone from gaining much of any benefit from doing that.

What do you guys think? Is it a real thing? I have yet to meet one. Most of all of us log out and budget what little recreation time playing only when we feel like it.

If such a person really did exist, I wouldn't mock them.... I'd kind of just feel bad for them that they had nothing else to do. Some people might stay logged in a lot. Maybe they are stuck home watching kids. Maybe they work from home. Maybe they don't have to work. But most likely they are just chatting if they even stay logged in for long. Grinding endlessly in this game gets you no where. Even if there was something they *could* do, it doesn't hurt me. It's their time, they can spend it how they want. At least they can interact with people in game, where as maybe otherwise they'd have less to do.

That's why I don't call anyone a no lifer.

Solution, never be mean to anyone.

posting what I said in another thread

I am getting tired of people complaining about "no lifers" or "people rushing content" because while you have your pace I have mine and they have theirs you want a game you can play at your own pace why is it that my pace has to be dictated by yours ? Shouldnt I get to play the game I pay for just the same as you at the pace I feel comfortable with ? Why does that make me rushing content because I can sit down for a week at launch for 3-4hrs a day and cap my first 2 (and the only 2 I find interesting) jobs ? If me beating the game (main story) in 15hrs of gametime is rushing content then maybe I am rushing content... maybe I am used to games being fulfilling and interesting... maybe I believed in the promise of "the game STARTS at 50" too much and took it to seriously.. Should I spend the first 20hrs of my time in the tutorial for demons souls or is that still to fast and rushing it because I thought that tutorials were just that, an intro to the real game ? Maybe I have more time than some people to play this game (though I can promise you with what this game offers 90% of it isnt playing this game) should we limit books to only 1 chapter releasing a week ? should we release "The Last of Us" in season long DLC patches once every 3 months ? Should we make it so that your movies only come in 20min segments once a week ? I work 40-50hrs a week I like to think that means I am a step above "no lifer" I pay bills I have responsibilities and I meet them. I just play my games at a different pace why is that pace determined by someone who doesnt have the time or commitment to do what I do.

Most of my time in game is now spent talking but I bet that makes me hardcore because apperently the idea of pushing buttons is stressful and to type to people I push a whole lot of buttons /stress

This character existed. Their name was Rio and they were on the Caitsith server of FFXI. Every job max level and every piece of BiS gear that was current. Not a single person in my LS or any other LS ever saw them logged out. Different people would talk to them and they seemed different a lot. Our only theory was that multiple people played the account

Use a Phoenix Down. Undead instantly die when you use a Phoenix Down on them.
