My shell always enters exactly on time. 7:15pm EDT on Thursdays and 7:30pm EDT on Sundays.
The only time I've ever not entered the zone that I posted on the Calendar was last Thursday when my shell was scheduled to enter Dynamis - Windurst and was unable to due to Burnout's shell (ADisturbingCreation/Disorder/etc.) entered before us as we were waiting until our start time.
As for the 'taking other zones', we have NEVER entered a zone ahead of another LS that was scheduled on the Dynamis Calendar.
Going /away is bad when you're trying to lead something? Gee, must have missed that. It's not uncommon for me to go afk when I want to avoid distractions.
And disrespectful? Hardly. I have received very rude messages from people that think their zone was 'stolen' when they refuse to post on the calendar and I always respond in a civil manner.
If you don't want to post your schedule on the calendar with the other LS's, that's fine. But like I've said before, doing so forfeits any right you may have had to *** and moan about not being able to enter the zone you want to, not that it stops you anyway.

My shell uses the calendar and schedules runs on it for a few weeks in advance. I really like it for personal reasons, too, simply because it's easy to see what's coming up.
*** dynamis drama. get over it. suck it!

ADC likes jacking zones anyway :o My Dyna LS, pwnED) creates our schedule for the next three months in advance. We work with ADC and their love of Iceland-jacking to create a workable schedule. I don't personally do the schedule making myself but no, we don't don't post it on that Calendar site afaik.
Though if you have any questions, ours is set for the next 3 months :o Sponsoring schedule really.

I dunno... You may not use it, but "NotEDII" and "/pwnED/" are both registered on the Calendar. =)

Posted our schedule through 6/21/09. Current conflicts are Apr 23rd Xarcabard. Everything else is clear I think.
And then some other run which conflicts with PureInsanity but they typically just wait and go in once we're done when there have been conflicts before.
[+]
Yeah, we'll see about the 23rd. I'm sure we can switch it around somewhere. =)
[+]
Yeah, work it out with Xorn if ya can. :> I'm just a sponsor in the LS, not a leader.

Apparently no one on Garuda uses it, since all the time slots are Green. o.O maybe some of you that are having problems should come over here ^_^ >.> :D
lol I dunno... They might be like the few stubborn LS's that we have here and refuse to use it. The most funny thing about it though tbh... Is that the people that refuse to use it and use a forum's calendar won't even look at the site to see that it's very easy to use and convenient.

It's not the Fairy NA Dynamis LS that need a reminder. Alot of us have been on that Calendar for years now and follow it. And if its down we usually communicate in tells have meetings and keep true to the scheduling. Well us longer established LS do. Fairy just has an epidemic of shout LS trying to just jump right in since the cost is low now or people trying to PL Relic.
People who are jumping zones are fly by night nab LS and JP who don't use this calendar. This ain't no public service announcement. Majority of us been on that ***.

I completely agree with the poster on this. It has really become a problem that I've noticed on Fairy. The newer Dynamis shells are just recruiting random people and ignoring the calendar altogether. I don't know if it's whether they're not aware, or just plain don't give a ***.
Tbest said: I honestly don't care if someone goes in first, you just move to another zone. It's not worth getting all pissed over. I do think it's kind of funny though that people get soooo irate when they want to enter a zone and can't, especially when there are many other zones free. It becomes a big deal when people are waiting for specific pieces. When their shells only do that zone once per month or so and they've had really horrible luck with the drop. It's all about consideration and using the calendar that's in place. It's there for a reason.
[+]
Yep. Which is why I've been posting.
Also though... Had an issue last night with Radiance and in incorrect schedule. Apparently they enter at like 8:30pm EDT or 9:30pm EDT instead of 10:30pm EDT like their schedule says due to an incorrect time zone setup or something. We planned a run in Beauc last night and posted on the calendar before that, knowing that Radiance was going to be running at 10:30pm EDT and we had to be out by then. We entered just before 7:30pm EDT, which gave us plenty of time for a run and still be out by the time they wanted to enter or possibly a few minutes late. We actually ended up exiting at 10:35pm EDT. Right after we had broken the glass I get a tell from Radiance wondering why we're entering the zone when they're supposed to enter soon. And as I'm running the event I'm trying to sort out just why they think they're supposed to enter at that time when the FFXI Dynamis Calendar says otherwise. Didn't ever reach a resolution to it. I'm not sure if he realized he had it set to the wrong time zone or what, but he stopped complaining. *Shrugs.* I am a very strong follower of the FFXI Dynamis Calendar and find it immensely useful. But like any great tool, it has to be used properly. FFXI Dynamis Calendar Edit: lol... w00t! *Makes a wish?*

BECAUSE I CAN RUN BACKWARDS AS FAST AS YO CAN MUTHA ***
So, I was talking to the guy that updates the forum calendar for Shadow Realm's LS site last night. That's the site that the remaining 3 shells cling to instead of using the FFXI Dynamis Calendar.
I was just trying to get some insight into the whole reason behind their refusal to cooperate. And then even suggested they close off the ability for non-ShadowRealm LS members to post on the SRLS forum calendar. Unfortunately they refuse to. So, they'll continue to enable the stubborn shells. It sure is a shame that the Dynamis shells of Fairy or FFXI in general aren't part of a democratic organization. We'd be able to take a vote and have the 20+ shells that actively use the FFXI Dynamis Calendar outvote and force the remaining 3 shells to conform and use the site that most shells use.
