Re: Apple Pie is retiring from FFXI ?

I wanted to put "Murphie has the best One Liners", but that was way too long.

It's only one line.

No way I was giving Murphie more words in my sig than Omni.

Re: Apple Pie is retiring from FFXI ?

Murphie has one liners.

Though...that doesn't really make much sense. Murphie says it with less? Still more words than Omni.

You should give Omni more words to make this easier!

Murphie hates Raydeus?

I'm going to use GIMP to make a pic of the sig, because I tried including someone new in it and I'm at the character cap. ; ;

Back on topic, folks! *shakes moderator's fist*

Apple Pie holds a very special place in the hearts of long-time FFXI players, particularly those of us who were playing as far back as the North American beta or even importing the JP version previously. He's one of the most knowledgeable players about the game when it comes to game mechanics, and he knows the numbers like the back of his hand. Frankly, he's probably forgotten more about FFXI than I've ever learned, and that says a lot considering I've been playing FFXI for over four years now.

We love you, Grendal-san! Don't go away!

Re: Apple Pie is retiring from FFXI ?

thank you bside-san for the quick translation.

well, at least it gives us some hope to see grendal-san again someday. I know switching jobs can be a pain in the ass so I can definitely see where he is coming from; i've done the same myself.

Re: Apple Pie is retiring from FFXI ?

Grendal-san is a great person. I wouldn't have my Joyeuse without his help.. ; ;

Well for all intents and purposes, his absence is the reason so many of us around here are so good at being RDMs and contributors to the community in the first place, being as how we all had to step up and fill the void.

In fact, every time I go to Castle Zvahl and farm drops that i'll just end up NPCing, I remember who told us about it in the first place, lol.

God damnit, those Demon DRKs still hit like trains.

Re: Apple Pie is retiring from FFXI ?

honestly I don't give much of a damn about individual players, or even really LS for that matter.

Well it's ok if you don't know Apple Pie. But at least please show some respect. If there's someone in this game who deserves it, Apple Pie it is.

Hehe, I have been playing AoEIII lately and when I saw that I though of the Mortaru, i.e. the main Japanese siege weapon.

VERY VERY Very well said Icemage, I learn from you guys as much as I learned from Apple Pie. But there was more from him, his exploration on the boundary of a job - rdm had brought us very good memory in this forum. Apple Pie can be very persistent, to develop rational approach upon gameplay mechanics, yet he delivered it smoothly via his video recording and skillful play ^^)b.

Thanks for the translation! Now, I am a bit relief, I regular visit his blog so I am panicked when I read something like that =P

I was plenty respectful. I asked who he was instead of just dismissing the thread.

Unless you're expecting me to grovel and worship him, I'm not sure what you want.

Re: Apple Pie is retiring from FFXI ?

You might have been better off dismissing the thread.

At any rate, it's good to know that Apple Pie isn't leaving the game entirely. While I never benefited for his wisdom as directly as some of the other forum-goers, I'm not ignorant to the fact that his insight into RDM shaped the way we play.

Re: Apple Pie is retiring from FFXI ?

I am really not that epic. I don't even know what it means. I mean, I know what epic means, but I don't know what it means with regards to me.

You'll find out in your unauthorized biography.


PS > I don't know who ApplePie is either, but it seems like he did a lot for the NA community.



Edit > And yeah I totally missed this thread 'till now. <_<;
