So I effed up my name

[Cheezeman3000]

I must've been tired or drunk or horny or all three, but I somehow named my character "Chcczeman" instead of "Cheezeman." Wtf. I didn't even catch it until a friend of mine happened to see me playing and went "oh, was Cheezeman already taken?" This is after like a full week of play.

I did a google search for changing FFXI names and as I'm sure you all know, it's a hassle that would most likely end up costing me money. Seeing as how I have only recently graduated to level 11, I figure it's not that big of a deal to just start anew.

So this brings me to my question. If I throw everything into my mog house then delete my character, will everything still be there when I create a new one?

Another random question that's less important: I can't seem to find myself on FFXIAH or allakhazam... even though I've sold lots of things on auction already. Would that be because I'm still in my 14-day trial period?

Nope.

FFXIAH only monitors the Jeuno AH.

create a second character, and send all your stuff to it, then delete your main, and recreate it, if you really want to change it that bad ;p

Ha! I never even thought about that. Thanks guys!

Re: So I effed up my name

I created a second character with the correct name and transferred everything to him but it took FOREVER (over an hour) and I couldn't transfer my linkshell or my beastmen's seals which sucked. So I didn't get to really "play" last night. Oh well, at least I have the right name now. I'm on Gilgamesh if anyone wants to linkshell with a lvl 1 noob. :D

So, I wasn't even going to post this, but because I found this along the way I thought I had sufficient content for a post.

What?

You hear that? That's the sound of a thousand tiny violins. If I could move my stuff on my main in only an hour, I would consider it a small miracle.

1) Pearlsack before (or as) you're switching.
2) Use them

You sure? I have a level 12 greataxe that I can't even use yet. I'm THAT awesome.

Can I borrow it?

...use Beastmen's Seals? At level 11?

Re: So I effed up my name

I threw all seven of my seals away. SEVEN.

And I'll need my greataxe eventually, sorry Dura. I plan to level to 12 by Saturday.

I love it when someone runs by and randomly casts Cure III on me then cheers me on. I feel like such a helpless little peon. :D

Going to Jeuno, trading for an Orb, getting back to town, and going into the depths of giddeus at level 11? TOTALLY WORTH IT.
