I do agree with you... but it is sad to see a friend who could have so much more have so little, i don't try and change him or anything i'm just pointing out that that kind of life is a pretty sad one imo

lol i don't play frogger so i can cross the lake, that gave me a good chuckle...lol yeah you are right and when i said people who play FFXI are masochist.... another thing about my friend... i know what you mean and i agree i'm not saying playing FFXI is any worse then other diversion but anything can be taken to an extreme that is un=neccesary and FFXI is only a game in the end... ice skating, reading, going to convetion socializing and all those things yeild something more productive... even if that number is very small it is still something more(all except those who drink all day) I'm just of the school where i believe life is worth living to its fullest, ya know get out expereince the world/travel go on trips/ for me ride my motorcycle and see the country and the world... go to school learn new things be a powerful individual... but all i see him being is weak, not willing to get up from hit bed/couch whatever and live life he'd rather live it through a game then actually experience it.

no i'm not saying farming ect takes away from the game.... at least for me but i could see how people can make it seem that way... not many people play FFXI so they can farm

"Why would you subject a game to you hate" because everyone on FFXI is a fucking masochist… just take a look at my room mate…. He has no life, in reality no friends and hates FFXI he even says it…. He hates the xping he hates a lot of things but for some losers its more then a game for them and just watching him makes me sick about this game I fucking hate it, nothing good will come of it for my room mate he barely pays the bills and barely eats anything and all he does is play FFXI and sleep and work…. When I say that I mean that literally I know a few other people say that but what kind of fucking life is that.
I’m sorry but anyone who puts themselves through that is disgusting in my eyes. They will never accomplish any goals in their life or even have any passions besides FFXI…. Even if you could call FFXI a passion it is not one worth any praise. I could go on and on about this but I think I’ll stop myself here.

lol, have you taken a look at my gear... it isn't the greatest but it is decent so i know that better then anyone. driving yourself forward to get the best gear and all that other shit you were talking about can be gone about in a manner other then job like..... to even consider this game a job because you have to waste so much time doing random and pointless shit in the quest of what the game society thinks is correct does turn it into a job... its like all the Chinese people building pointless little knick knacks to ship over to American consumers.... that is a job and pretty pointless. Games that allow you to move forward and still get things that are considered "uber" with out having to do the ridiculous things you have to do in FfXI and i'm not saying this game is a time waste, i can see how you could become very defensive if someone tells you oh shit look you've wasted XXXdays playing a game that will get you no where... i agree with codeiene in that sense.... another point is you are taking this game way to seriously if you need to defend its asinine system and community standards. People who do that almost seem to be defending a personal attack on their character like i really give a shit about any of this... how could you possibly enjoy all the rings they make you hop through you don’t’ have anything to complain… at all? Yeah all the economy talk is getting pretty boring as well but a lot of things are.

you could just turn FFXI gil like every other mmorpg's money.... worth toliet paper that would solve a lot.... i mean it is worth toliet paper now but i'm talking about the other way... i don't play this game so i can spend half my time farming and making gil this isn't a job

i don't know man, you can say that the new players can make money and be fine but I really think you are wrong in that sense.... I always hear people saying blah blah blah bee chips... I don't think those or raised to the price that keeps up with the inflation... i mean if you look at it the total amount of gil they have to raise to buy such and such piece of item is increased while the lower consumerable items fluctate a great deal you even said it yourself i believe when you said "Do Not keep your assets liquid." which to mean ... i may be taking this slightly out of context, but to me that means don't keep your assests in things like food and consumeable items. even if bee chips blah blah have doulbed thatstill isn't going to help when the gear they are going after triples and quadruples... yes making gil will not get harder but it does in a sense we now have to spend greater amounts of time earning enough gil to buy the same armor and gear that used to take us half the time when the consumable selling area (bee chips, fire crystals and other lower lvl methods to make money) were closer together and easier to obtain... you can't say making 500k and 50k are the same thing.... the time involved to achieve greater amounts of gil by mere farming is insanity and very fustrating for new players.... i think you are way off base to say that new players have it easy just because they never saw the low prices.
