HAHAHHAHA
Seriously guys, locke has returned and cut his playtime down. Maybe give it a while for you to see if you really continue to want to play the game, and if so, try to come back part time? Dont come back if you just miss the people, you have the forums for that.
Nothing but love for my brothers.

Dont come back if you just miss the people, you have the forums for that. Nothing but love for my brothers. -t I can't speak on behalf of Krazi but what I can say is the last 10 days or so have been rough for me. There are so many thoughts running through my mind right now. With that said, i'm going to use this post as a means to place all my thoughts in writing as well as to get feedback from all of you. Reasons why I want to return1. I miss being able to consistently stay in contact with all the friends I've been with over the past year. 2. Some of my older friends (i.e. Destro, Mirowr, Axia just to name a few) are starting to be more active with EO instead of other HNMls. This is something I always hoped I would see. 3. The LS is flourishing. I see new apps on a daily basis. From what I can see from the sidelines is everyone is interacting in a harmonious manner. 4. EO has carved out its spot on the HNM stage as well as going after gods. I waited so long for EO to take this step. I suppose you could say I'm without closure. 5. I've had several nights when there is absolutely nothing happening. Everyone is off doing something else. Console games are a bore. Nothing on TV. If I could achieve a balance, nights like this would be perfect for hanging out with my online friends. 6. There are some aspects of the game I do miss. A big one being SMN job. Reasons why I don't want to return1. The reason why I left in the first place...the game is too consuming for me to control. Do I risk giving myself an opportunity to be consumed again? 2. I plan on returning to school for the spring semester with hopes of finishing up with some sort of degree within the next couple years. 3. I fear how Krazi might be effected if I return. 4. There are many ppl in my life who may or may not be disappointed in me. I don't want to fuck up my relationship with my g/f. 5. And here's a big problem. I have no gils. If I recall correctly, there's about 300G to my name. I had a lot of luck getting to where I was when I first called it quits, doubtful my luck will get me there a second time. That's about it for now. I'll add more later if I think of anything. To be honest, my mind does feel a bit clearer. |

Its not an issue, as you damn well should realize, so dont even bother thinking about this. -t |

First off. I miss everyone! Just like in some of miruuks reasons to play i feel the same. Seing people that I knew in game that werent in the ls come to the ls is something I wish and tried to have happen on more than one ocassion. I do miss the game and the people. I think about EO at least once a day.
That being said, i'm glad that I think of you guys and not the game. One major reason why I will not go back to FFXI is cuz of what it does to me in my mind. I was constantly thinking of things i wanted to accomplish. Whether its the day of the week for crafting, moons, spawns, times others are gonna be around, etc. I also had a huge problem of deciding on a focus. I always wanted to be working on the monk, whether it was xping or farming or getting some new piece of gear for him to perform in some other aspect of the game, ie, tanking, chi blasting. But the beastmaster was a way better job for me personally and for the way my life works. That was frustrating. When i was playing as bst i would think about what i could have accomplished as the monk or krazi the character during that time. If i was playing as the monk I just wished I was playing as bst cuz then i never had to deal with the stupid fucking people that this game seems to attract sometimes. being able to do shit on my own was a great plus. I think this flip flopping of ideas and wants is just part of my personality and i have to live with that cuz its not just this game that it comes out.
Bottom line is I would constantly think about this game. Id leave work early, stay up late, ditch the g/f, not clean my house, or shower, not eat, not leave the house, miss out on things with friends, school work got its corners cut, hardly ever saw my family, and didnt take the time to explore new adventures in other games. I dont really play much for games right now, but sometimes Xaero and I hook up on msn and play a game of chess or hook up to play some Unreal Tournament or CnC Generals. That is fucking awesome lol. Anyway my point is in play FFXI i forgot about alot of things life has to offer that can just randomly pop up. Sometimes its cool to not be doing anything but laying on the couch watching tv, cuz sometimes you catch a cool show or some good anime. i'm sorry guys. i just dont think now is the time for me to make any kind of comeback. Like I said previously I dont miss FFXI, I miss EO! i really do, the forums is one thing but, just an example, I used to talk to Tempus and Markus on a regular basis, not just about ffxi but about life, real friend conversations. i miss that. I REALLY MISS THAT! But its not gonna be my reason to pay and play some game that will just become a syst on my brain. sorry :' :' I do hope someday EO will move onto a new game or or or even a real life gaming guild. A guild that is not just for FFXI but for all games and more aspects of life. Who knows? I know that I will post here for sure forever so anyone else that is an Orphan can stay an Orphan forever. ; ;
MIRUUK! Go back if you must, I told you last night that it seems like you just need the closure more than anything. You freaked out when you got the game and just burned past everyone and moved on. Its your fault that you spent a ton of time alone in essence as the rest of us tried to catch up. If you are gonna try to do any of the things you say about school and life and w/e you need to find the balance. I may have seemed to have a balance last year but I didnt. And that was partly becuz of you. All I wanted to do since the day I called you up and told you "you have to play this game with me" was to fucking adventure with you and kill shit. You blew past and left me behind. Now, there were a ton of times that we did hook up and hang out. those were my favorite times. lol ; ; ; Id love to come back and get my 9k to 65 and get dragon kick and go back to those starmites dude ; ; ; ; that would be awesome. but that aside. I will support any decision you make. i will not be disappointed but I wont let it consume you either. I will /double slap your fucking face in. I'm serious! And dont even use me as a reason why you wouldnt comeback. That hurts more than anything I think you have ever said man. I know you care about me and are just looking out for me, but fucking a dude, DO WHAT MAKES YOU FEEL GOOD! you know thats what i want. So cross that one off your list.
So now you have 6 reasons for and 4 against..........Maybe you need to develop a points system to rank which are most important. My advice is it is tough to balance work, school, g/f, family, friends, and personaly time with a game like this consuming every moment making you want to just play some more. That being said, I say give it some more time and see if it passes. if not like i said I'll pay for your first month if you want, shit I'll even split some cash with you to get you some gil. I dont want to support the gil sellers but fuck man, if you need to get some money back ill help ya. Plus I'm sure EO would sponsor one of its best members ever in a comeback.
I dont know what else to really say. I'm sure Ill post after responses.
Mike
P.S. Sackholders, I am really proud of you guys for just trekking forward from the shit that happend right b4 i left to the shit of us leaving. You guys are doing awesome and I am so proud. i think sometimes of just seeing EO working together to get shit done and it gives me strength in my everyday life to accomplish my goals for the day or for the year. Ahh shit I'm tearing up again. FUCK!

Mike What he said, do what you want to do, but I would strongly strongly advise giving it more time before you decided if you want to come back. And if you do, you may not be rich, but I promise you will not be broke... I remember all that youve done for me, your generousity would not go unrewarded if you came back. And Im fairly certain that others would say similar statements. If nothing else, we'll be dragging your ass to sky to kill gods, there's money right there. Take some more time though, its too soon now. -t |

My best bet is wait it out until next month. Besides SE doesn't deserve my $13 just to cover the last week of August...fucking bastards! |
