Jynx: As a Recruit you can purchase things from a company with the initial seals you get. You don't have to join to see the lists, and so my only research was while I was doing the qeusts to get a chocobo. (Which was told to me in game by a player as to what to do to obtian it.)

Kinseykinz: I appreciate your response, and I understand that completly all of your points I do honestly fully understand. I'm not here saying "LOL I DON'T READ AND NOW I'M MAD!" But I'm just dissapointed in the design choice. I know I was warned. It was in RED TEXT! I know it wa spermenent according to the text in game, but so was my characters appearance when I created her, and I',m now being teased about a Barbershop comming in 2.0. Are people also going to be angry about that? (Maybe that was a supid question? lol)

I also don't care about the loot any longer as it's not worth using, not that I am a far more seasoned player who never PL'd BTW..... As does my friend, but like I said we were new to the game AFTER this was added. As newer players it's not all that well laid out as to what was going to be restricted, and that design choice is a bad one IMO, and I know that there are quite a few peopel who agree with me.

Anyway. Hope this game does well, but I don't think choices like this are helping. =P Remember gear colors? lack of choice menas lack of happy players.
