What are you going to do with all your free time?

Make love to all the beautifull women on the planet, take over the world, create the most disfunctional family ever in sims 2 (I don't have far to look to get ideas!) , complain until spore is finally released here then play that, do some DIY on the house I have been putting back for ages play FF1-12, cause havoc in crazy taxi and Burnout takedown actually try and complete Dragon quest VIII (I got bored a year ago)

and the most important one is spend more time with my GF and friends.

Alright. When you come back to reality, practice your English.


I mean, I'm an American, and your English is appalling to me.

Re: Retireing

Feba I can't help being dyslexic or the fact I had a really bad drunkerd english teacher. I can;t type american either because like it or not english is quite different with spellings and words than american.

Re: Retireing

It's not actually that different, provided you don't use slang every other word (which you like to do). But we were mostly kidding anyway.

Re: Retireing

Though I may not know you well enough to really say good bye or I'll miss you or any of that other sentimental shenannigans that usually occurs in these types of threads, I just feel I have to point out one thing.

However because I'm leaving the game, does not mean I will up sticks from here (live with it those people who started groaning!) The forum and its people have welcomed me here with open arms and I have had many entertaining hours reading various peoples posts and joining in the banter. may this continue and I will continue with my presence here and posting funny stories etc and helping a few people out with things I can remember from the game. This forum is not just the game now, its a community of people with similar interests and in some cases a feeling of friendship and family.

So as far as this forum's concerned, you're not exactly going too far now are ya

Re: Retireing

I'm proud to speak American, the language of the free, who's rival language is Hitlerese. Does English have a rival language?

Re: Retireing

...do some DIY on the house I have been putting back for ages,...

This cracked me up because it hit close to home. We have an old victorian farmhouse that we are renovating. So the living room was up next and boy that was gonna be a job. There were 5 or 6 layers of wallpaper on the walls with a couple layers of paint on each wallpaper. We had to strip all of that off to get to the plaster walls so they could be fixed because they had holes and were cracked. We also stripped all the woodwork (lots and lots of it) including the french doors so that they could be stained their original color. So we get all this done and now we had pure white plaster walls and bare wood in the room..............and then out came FFXI. That room stayed that way for FOUR YEARS! Well, I did stain the woodwork over the 4 years but that was it. The rest I needed help from my guys and getting them off that damn game was IMPOSSIBLE. I finally put my foot down after my husband retired and made my son take a week off from work. Then I took every computer power cord in the house and hid them! Only after working on the room for at least 8 hours a day could they earn a power cord! LOL So this past summer we finally finished the room and it is wonderful.....5 more rooms to go!

Re: Retireing

I really think the discussion of spelling should be stopped here. He doesn't spell extremely bad, also he has pointed out the fact that he is dyslexic. We're a FFXI Community. FFXI is a game that allows player from all over the world to play together. It is not an uncommon thing to encounter players that have difficulties with their language.. I think we've grown over that now, especially for those who've been in online community's for longer than just a few months..

I personally don't speak and spell English perfectly either.

Jarre, as you are leaving game, I hope you'll have fun with your future.. you're obviously still always welcome to these forums. And I must say, I think you're doing the right thing. Quit when it still was fun.. Keep the good memories.
There are enough people who still are into this game and it's community, though their most enjoying moments have passed long ago.
