Yea i seen this before, very teary.....

[Cephalid]

server down or something? i tried going there again to see it again, but its nto working

[sschacha]

that touched my heart so much because it explains how i feel everyday,

i remember when me and tekkeman used to party together in the dunes, how we laughed and did things together, its all gone now and i am still left in the dust with all he has acomplished.

thanks for posting that clip.

[Icadus]

that was awsome, i don't know what to say about it it was just so good

[Spartan]

Wow! I posted this a while ago. Good to see it's still up. I find myself struggling to hold back tears everytime I watch it.

[talking_shotgun]

i liked that.
that's kinda how i play.
i may only be level 18, but i've seen everything i can see without dying. i've spent more time on seeing the sights and just being with friends than becoming richer and more powerful than everyone else.

I can definitely relate. Me and a few friends all started together in the game and were completely consumed by it. We would run around Sandoria and La Theine, trying to figure out how to do Skill Chains, discovering new emotes, calls, and freaking out over new areas and views.

Eventually members started getting competitive and seperating. We would try to all get back together, but it never seemed to work out.

Which brings up another point. You've got to enjoy yourself where you are with who your with. Constantly meeting new people and sharing the "adventure" is what it's all about, even if your original members aren't around. There's plenty of other people out there who are up for dropping their grind and just enjoying the game.

I just put up a post at:

That's basically my story of coming back to Vanadiel after getting stuck in that whole "grinding" mentallity, and in all honesty, I've never been more happier with the game than I am now!

Okay, enough of the sedimental stuff from me, I promise. Moral of the story is simply to enjoy being, no matter what it is you are or where you are at the moment.

[Fieras]

wow i saw this movie and cried too

Then I made an entire post on my own server forum.

[kayu]

[Mireisen]

LMAO Kayu.

[Sephiroth2k5]

I just watched it and sheaded a tear thinking about when I first started this game and all the people and adventrures I had.

[kayu]

i am gonna keep it >.> mine!!!!!! i like that flash

[Illith]

....

/looks around...

/sheds a tear...

Wah...I've never seen it but it was very touching. Oddly enough, i've had a certain group i've always been with...and even through bad times- we find a way to get through. I'm glad there are others like that who also appreciate the game and its wonders then just leveling to be the best.

Then again maybe it's because i'm also a Role Player...story is always important.

/bow

Thanks for the link! I'll be sure to pass it around my LS when I get on. ^^

[Cephalid]

Man, i remember running around with my good friend Quisty in East Sarutabaruta... Lol one day we decided to do the reporter quest in Windurst Waters for some cash =P We spent allll day running around. There was also another, named Rataires i believe, but i haven't seen her since =/ Back in those days, I just kinda hung around Sarutabaruta lvling at an incredibly slow pace my BLM. And also Quisty was then Hera, her brother's mule.
So one day, she tells me Hera is being retired because her brother was moving away. There is no explaining how crushed i was. Then one day, I was strolling along, probably to my moghouse to pick up 700 gil from a silk thread i had sold, and out of nowhere pops this Mithra named Quisty. I get a /tell saying 'Hey!!! It's Hera!!!' and i practically flipped.
Lol so she goes out lvlin in West Saruta, and I log for a bit. When I log back on, she's already at like lvl 7, which at the time i was lvl 9 =P I was amazed... So then like the next day she hits lvl like 10-11, and say she's going to a far off place called Valkurm Dunes, and that i should come too. Of course, being the stubborn lil noob i was, i said 'no, i prefer hanging around east sarutabaruta' So in the next week, she hits 14...15...18... and i'm still sittin around windy lvl 9. After that we sorta drifted away...
Well I dunno, one day i decide to buy some maps and head out to this far-off land. Miraculously, I have almost all awesome pts and I'm gaining like a lvl a day, which for me was faster than fast. So i get my sub-job, and start lvlin my whm to like lvl 9 =P So anyway, with my gimped sub i proudly amble back to Dunes to get to lvl 20. Like outta nowhere Quisty sends me a /tell saying she was going to Jeuno. Of course, I'm in windy and I can't get to her in time because her guide was tired of waiting. So i send some /shouts in dunes and a good friend, Dalica, lol lvl 25 warrior at the time, responds and takes me there. Before i leave Selbina though, i go to the white magic shop and pick up a scroll of Cure III just for her. At the time 3k was like a mil =P I eventually get there and I send her the scroll.
Lol so anyways, after that she was always sorta 1 or 2 lvls higher, then 3-4 lvls higher, then she gets her kazham keys and starts lvling further. Somewhere in like Yhoator Jungle I get like SERIOUSLY sick of lvling, so i just go hang in Jeuno for like a month, and in this time she hits 40-ish. So now we're like so far apart in level that it seemed we'd never pt again, even just to go running around like in the old days... This sort of put me off FFXI for a bit...
So like, i get to lvlin again for whatever reason, and i do some missions, and eventually get to 3/1 where I'm just stumped. Well, i ask Quisty to help, and Lo and behold, she does. Running through Meriphataud Mountains with /follow on reminded me of the time, back a long time ago, when we both did the reporter quest for a measly 560 gil lol. So we get to talking and laughing about the old days, and we become the close friends that we once were, way back in East Sarutabaruta, running through the Horutoto Ruins, looking for this door with the help of a BLM that I have yet to match in power, Neejee. Great times Quisty, great times.. Thank you for the best part of my FFXI experience to date. Whenever I go back to Windy and I get off the Telepoint platform at Mea, I run it instead of renting a Chocobo, just for the satisfaction of hearing the East Sarutabaruta music, bringing back these memories...

[Kenneth]

Makes me want to bring back my old LS..oh well.

[tomatopotato]

Thank you for posting that.

[Mattaru]

Its the music.
The music alone can make you cry ^^

This clip was inspirational. Old as it may be, but someone poured a lot of heart into it i think.

It's a shame when friends break up like that.
SE should make the friendlist more easier to manage ^^ like the fact you don't need pending! Or for them to be online!

And I don't like losing friends who switched to a different server.... that was quite upsetting, knowing how hard it'll be to communicate ~~
