I was looking at the Guinness Book of World records and the FFXIV community.

A quote from that article,


"Stephen Daultrey, Editor of the Guinness World Records Gamer’s Edition said, "It is testament to both the size and longevity of the Final Fantasy franchise that it can break Guinness World Records titles that are broad, eclectic, and landmark as these ones.”"



Here is one of the three records from the official site.

After looking at our FFXIV community of gamers, there has to be FFXIV gamers in the community including FCs that have broken these records or could easily break them if they knew.

In addition, I thought maybe some of the original FFXIV features would break a few of these records.

And I personally think our FFXIV musical system is far more complex than this record.

Also, these records are easily attainable if we could find out the oldest FFXIV gamer in our community with highest achievement points, minions, and BIS gear.

Finally, I have a feeling we have a very large FFXIV community that have a particular mount….

Not only do I think the FFXIV community can make meaningful contributions, but also rewrite the history books…
