[Riva]

(Crossposting from Allakhazam, just in case.)

Long story short, I played on Lakshmi for a long time (2003-2007ish), then took a year-and-a-half long break and came back to find my account had been compromised. I got it back, minus a few valuables (which I've been steadily replacing with R/Ex counterparts mostly), and I'm trying to get back into the swing of things. For the curious, I'm Riva, kind of a nobody who once played webhost to a few LS forums but never got past 71 myself due to lacking time; my girlfriend Junon was a bit more into the whole endgame thing and she's back too.

Anyway, the point is, all my old Linkshells are gone or dead, and I want to have something to make my return to FFXI a less lonely experience. Are there any friendly, relatively well-populated* LSes out there who wouldn't mind taking in a slightly rusty returning Lakshmiite and helping me get my bearings again? Of course I'd lend a hand around the LS too. Mostly I'm just looking for a home here, so I can have something to do besides camp NMs, and maybe a little help for something silly like Banishing Gates or AF.

* Obviously "well-populated" will be a relative statement in this case, but I know Lakshmi's definitely not a ghost town server yet!

I stopped in the 2006 range, and my account has also been hacked. What'd you do to get it back? I thought it was lost forever.
