Gooby said: Coming to FFXIAH and seeing that about 99.9% of the pictures people put of RL junk for items suck. That grinds my gears. The very first ones way back when were lol, now it's just stupid. Example: http://www.ffxiah.com/screenshots.php?id=14755..and many others. I apologize. I'm the one that started that stupid trend, but back then, it was actually funny. Edit: After clicking that link, I can tell you that it is, in fact, real-life Moldavite in earring form. So it's not all wrong.

You know what really grinds my gears? All those horny teenagers who think because my character is a girl I appreciate being singled out for their sexual fantasies.
What is this? You and your little 1 inch Taru stick and your bad manners and your teenage horniness and your big magic pool.
I mean, I mean come ON! How stupid do you have to be to not think I might NOT be a girl? Yeah, that's right, YOU! You just told a GUY you wanted to get naked with him, you horny little teenager, typing on your keyboard and thinking you're all cool and you're gonna get some and I'm all into you and... stuff! Don't you have something better to do, oh I don't know, like maybe getting a LIFE?!
Well you'd better check your glasses John Travolta, because I'm a GUY! Yeah, yeah that's right!
Now go back and tell all your horny teenage friends from Saturday Night Fever who you shared your sexual fantasies with. See what they think of you. Go on, get out of here. Not so hot now are you? Jackasses.
And that's what really grinds my gears. Back to you Dianne. People who play female characters and expect not to be pestered by guys thinking they're girls. I'm a mithra, I know what I was getting into. Sure its annoying sometimes but, its what I chose and i gotta deal with it. {/blacklist}{do you need it?} edit: saw the second one bout it bein a joke at and all ^^; but the point still remains because I hear people *** about it all the time.

People that come into forums dedicated to helping other people with new features and blatantly call them small minded for getting confused or having problems piss me off. They are totally helpful to others with their snide remarks and just come of making themselves look like ***. Really grinds my gears.

xxx falls to level 74.
Yeah, good job. Spend god knows how many hours meritting your jobs and getting powerful gear for them but not an hour or so getting a decent buffer.
Just irks me. I get that alot from certain ppl in my LS. I couldn't care less about them delvling and not being able to wear some pieces of gear, it's their reputation after all. What I DO care about tho is this: "I only have 2k buffer, R3 please." after a god damn wipe for example. Like we don't have all the time in the world during dyna, we only have 2 WHMs in the zone, how about use some RR items, get a better buffer or just bite the damn bullet and take a R1. It's just XP after all and you MIGHT only be 74 for a little time, you can reget 75 after, but our time in Dynamis is limited, so please don't make us wait longer just because you NEED a R3. Oh and ***like gewd, dawg, gee gee (gg), etc. you get it. It's not cool. Oh, I got another one again!! You guys know those people that aren't jp, but they still use "w" instead of "lol"? I HATE that wwWWWWWWWWWwwwwwwwWWWWWWWWWWwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwWWWWwwwwwww That is all. w.

Whenever I'm doing Besieged, I put up a /seacom that says:
{Besieged}{Standing by.}ｗｗｗｗｗｗｗｗｗｗｗｗｗｗｗｗｗｗｗｗｗｗｗｗ
That being said, I am half Japanese so it's like okay for me to do it I guess.

The "lol" and "www" are both understood and that's what matters, isn't it? If you associate a word or phrase with a race of people, than aren't you a racist? o,O ~Yote

Hagun's not as good as it used to be. As for Haubergeon+1, it's cheap now, isn't it? Get one!

Onimaru and NQ hauby work just fine. Besides even though there's a major TP benefit from the Hagun, there are times when the DMG increase is just; especially against super defensive HNMs.

Oh, I guess it is a bit more expensive than I had thought. I was thinking more along the lines of SH and SH+1, since the HQ is only 600k for that.
That being said, 1 STR, 1 DEX, 2 ACC, and 2 Attack are NOT worth 15x the price.

Unfortunately that would mean having to call me for the password every time you wanna log on or me deactivating the SE account after we got our bags and thus losing the whole purpose of the security increase.

I honestly thought it was a steal for $10. I would have paid $100 just for the extra inventory space. I mean my god, you realize Ninja Tools alone take up 22 inventory spaces? And then on top of that, I have full EVA gear, full Blood-tanking gear, and full DD gear to carry around, and I don't even have enough room for that in my inventory, let alone the 5-6 items I carry to hold in my Bazaar for 99,999,999, Olduum Ring, Tavnazian Ring, Altep Ring, Fishing rod and a few lures, Signet Staff, Homing Ring, etc etc. The extra 80 inventory is MORE than welcome for me.
