I know meriting is supposed to make you stronger, but does it have to be so bloody boring. I just can't bring myself to do it.

I can't bring myself to do merit points because I'll just have to figure out what to spend them on. With the recent campaign exp buffs, I can get 5000+ just by sololing one mob on my pup. I've had to re-learn the art of when to renew tags just to keep from hitting the 9000 hard cap. Hopefully I'll have some more jobs at 75 before long that will need merits.

On the subject of Campaign, I'm very pleased that people are doing it again. And not just people leveling jobs. See quite a few levels 90s out there too with full armor or empyrean weapons. Usually at least 4 or 5 other people at every one I go to.

It's actually rather amazing to me that all it took to bring people to it was an increase in EXP/AN yield.

Only thing I don't like? Plucking Wings actually opened this week and torpedoed the price of Cuchulain's Belt, which I had just bought 2 weeks ago...too bad it didn't have that effect on Roundel's Earring too.

When someone isn't paying attention and lots your drop... 2nd time this idiot has done this to me. He's absolutely worthless... sits there and dies contributing nothing ... then lots my shit... cuz he's not paying attention. Fucking tired of it...

Sounds like the LS needs to boot him from the group when lotting happens if that's the case. Because that's some bullshit.

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

I agree with murph... sounds like a classy guy.

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

If he's literally doing nothing I see no reason why he should have a problem with booting. Also, if he's not contributing in some way, why is he there?

To lot. Dude is totally paying attention, just not to what everyone things he should be.

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

He's the dad of someone who contributes and sometimes he's awake enough to contribute but a majority of the time he just stands there and waits to lot on things. He was only supposed to lot the Vision Coins and he accidentally lotted the Vision Jewel. Before that he lotted something I wanted right before it was supposed to drop because he thought nobody had lotted it and he didn't want it to go to waste... he's actually an old time member of this forum who hasn't posted in years.

Contact S-E to get the items transferred to you? It's been done in the past when some friends lost out on items due to a particular individual who always seemed to wake up enough to lot then went back to sleep again when everyone started saying, "Dude wtf?!". I think both parties have to be in agreement for the item to be transferred and in the aforementioned person's case, while he was a fucking liability when stoned he was a decent guy when lucid and didn't hesitate to transfer the stuff over.

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

We killed w/e it was again for others to get whatever he got the first time and I got mine then... and I'm sure cuz we have to kill the Vision Jewel NMs a few thousand more times for all the Emp wpns, I'll get a chance at a few more of them. 3rd time though... and I'll throw a fit.

Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

I remember a little while back having a Ls member in a bcnm run tell us to leave, The 3rd person said "why?" and before I could even turn to the exit we were warped out. The person left the area in a rage and everything autosorted between myself and the remaining confused party member. I then had to endure accusations of theft. Thankfully everything I had got was able to be used in delivery box so I sent them back. I then had to spend a week sending the items back because she was still enraged and returning them to me and sending tells saying keep them,

Some people are a$$holes no matter what they just cant help it. I saw her recently and she watched a manticore rape me that I cfh on. She waited till I died then decided to go for it. /pimpslap
