Welcome to Final Fantasy XIV, we are glad to have you!
Let's go ahead and make it interesting right off the bat by getting you (and me) some helpful items with no extra charge whatsoever. Just use my recruitment code ( WT3MECUB ) PRIOR to buying your subscription time, otherwise it will not work.
The steps to do as such are as follows:
Login to your FFXIV account at "Mog Station" -> http://sqex.to/Msp
Click on "Your Account" at the top left of the screen
Click on "Manage Service Options"
Click on “Enter Recruitment Code”
Enter the code: WT3MECUB
Receive rewards almost instantly upon playing. (Items listed below)
These rewards will be waiting for you upon playing (redeem at delivery moogle):
• Friendship Circlet - Increases EXP earned by 20% when level 25 and below
• Aetheryte Ticket (x99) - Players in possession of an Aetheryte Ticket when using Teleport will not incur a Gil fee
• Ballroom Etiquette - Improper Greetings - Using this will unlock a new emote. Fist Bump (/fistbump, /brofist)
