Ugh, good luck with it, if it's the credit card ban thing, it's like a lottery as to whether or not you get to keep your account.

And it lags/crashes the people with PS2s, and probably 360s as well. I was down in Grotto once helping a friend drop a DRG testimony, and someone farming nearby with a kclub just totally fucked my PS2 over. At least that's what the friend said it was.

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

Man tanking NMs when someone is using a KC on them must really suck. Although I don't think it can get worse than having more than 20 people feeding TP to the mob.

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

It's by no means a KC... can't wait to attempt my Soboro on campaign mobs. It sound like I'll make a ton of friends.

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

People need to learn how to follow instructions during events to save everybody time AND money.

Had an idiot in my party for PM2-5 today who insisted that Firedrakes didn't drop Giant Scales because they "are a 100% drop off the other kind of dragon further in, I just can't remember the name of it"

Wiki says Firedrakes, Wiki says 9%.. Shut the hell up and heal us you dumbass!

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

I don't know why, but I seem to find the assholes in FFXI. I got into a fight today, because I had to leave a party because I was sick. This guy went off at me, because I needed to "Learn that it is rude to randomly leave a party". I was even in the process of finding a replacement. After abusing me, he demanded that I gave him leader.

I doubt he'd clean the vomit from my keyboard if I had stayed.

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

DOnt worry about it Kimani you find people like that.
Some people have nothing but this game and will never evolve out of their parents basements. Good of you to try and find a rep though I wish some people did that for parties I'm in. dust yourself off clean the keyboard and get well soon.

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

RDMs, SCHs and PLDs that don't raise you after a campaign battle because they want their precious shinies and Dyna Coins and they're too lazy to raise one of the few Paladins who even bothers to fucking tank and keep mobs off the mages and squishy DDs in campaign.

This is one of the many reasons why I never raise RDMs, SCHs and PLDs myself in campaign anymore (i'll raise people who don't have raise since they aren't the people who annoy me here). If, at the end of the battle you are too lazy to toss out a raise to the Paladin who actually keeps the mobs off the mages instead of just hitting them or the White Mage that has been keeping you alive instead of just hitting the mobs for the whole battle then there is no way in hell I'm going to feel sorry for you if you lose out on a couple of precious shinies that NPC for more than what you can get for them on the AH anyway.

I don't care about shinies from campaign. Yes it's nice to have them and it's possible to make a few hundred k a day off campaign if you're really lucky but I don't do campaign for that. I can farm in a fucking FoV area if I want exp and shinies. I just want exp, that is all. If you're going to piss people off by letting them stay dead because you want an 8k dyna coin then I'm not going to shed a single tear if you miss out on a single 8k dyna coin because I have better things to do than waste MP in selfish players.

I had some people beating the hell out of a War Lynx with Soboro, Joyeuse, M. Kris' and K Clubs that I was trying to tank on my own PLD. Having a high level Coeurl constantly spamming TP moves at you (seriously it used a TP move after every other attack) on any job not called "White Mage" is exactly as fun as it sounds

People who use K clubs on NMs in campaign usually get the whole zone killed within seconds. I usually find that these are the same fucktards who think it's funny and clever to drag the NM into a group of people killing a regular mob so we can, you know win the bloody battle

My CoP group found that in general those scales drop more often in Site A which has lower levelled Drakes. Tell your friend that he's an idiot for saying you should even look at the high level Drakes and if he's a healer he should GTFO my job before I slap him for making WHMs look bad.

The Chocobo Hot and Cold Game. Just, the freaking Chocobo Hot and Cold Game. If the treasure isn't in some obstructed part of the zone (which it will be), you'll find the treasure, but then run out of digs before you ever actually get it.

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

You know, that sounds remarkably similar to my attempts at going back to the coffer area from the other side of The Eldieme [s] after a Campaign battle.

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

Eldieme Campaign is killing me...3rd time in 2 days someone has dicked with the doors switch right at the end of the battle and locked me out of the room where Union coffers pop, completely dicking me out of my chest after a 3k xp+ battle.

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

Are you really sure "someone dicked with" the doors? I've known for a long time that all doors open during a campaign battle, but didn't realize until recently that apparently all doors close afterward too. All of them. Even the one you need to get to the first switch. What, you didn't know there was a door there? That's because it broke during the war or some time afterward. So I'm not sure it's even possible to "dick with" the doors, at least not without a lot of planning.

Not that this would stop someone who was really determined to be a dick. Firewind's server (Kujata?) apparently has some really creative dicks who like to grief campaign battles.

The reason nobody ever noticed before was because nobody ever seriously played campaign in Eldieme before the update, other than to bash on the first fort. I did some weapon skillups on a another fort a couple of times, and that's when I noticed that the doors closed when the battle ended. Even most of the folks at SE probably don't know about this, not that they shouldn't have noticed it in recent testing.
