Chill84 Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 After hours of effort, I managed to click all of the buttons on Amazon.com that sends me a FFXIV game in the mail. What the hell, who even uses mail?? Well, I figured mail would be fine, since I won't have a computer built to use it until the week of November 10. I like to think of the postal service as just really, really, slow downloading. I heard about you guys from a post I made on reddit and sandanzuki gave me the lowdown. I don't know any of you personally, but I think our goals and lifestyles are really similar. I'm 29, I live just outside of Chicago in the central timezone, and I work a regular office jaerb. I played mostly old school MMO games like Everquest and FFXI, I shyed away from WoW because I didn't like how add-ons basically turned healer players into bots, and healing/support is the role I tend to like playing best. I've heard this game isn't much like FFXI, in that game I played a red mage main healer for a few years, so I am looking to play SCH or WHM as my main class in XIV. My goals are: making friends, becoming an S-Rank party healer, and exchanging woodworking tips. I heard this was a good free company for that? Anyway, hopefully see you all in two weeks, I will be making attempts to chat with you guys on mumble in the near future. -Chill84 (character name forthcoming) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midri Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 Hello! Sandan was my old handle, but I go by Midri these days. ^^ I've bumped you to Guest rank so that you can browse the forums. Are you planning to be a woodworker in game, or are you a woodworker IRL? Because we have a RL stonemason... We can put you two to work building us a guild house! PS. I'll be online but in raid 8:30-10pm CST, so we can chat any time after that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chill84 Posted October 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 Welcome to the forums! And I see we have a Futurama fan... Thank you, and Futurama is the best animated series, I will probably make a female roegadyn from amazonia. Hello!

Cool, I will be free before 10, I have an early meeting in the morning, so I might try to get to bed early. I've made stuff on a lathe and framed a basement, but I don't consider myself a woodworker. I'm not really good at anything in real life, I'm just kind of partially proficient in a lot of things - I was good enough with computers, graphic/web design, and management to land a nice office job without a college degree. HOWEVER, I am... the midwest regional champion of Android:Netrunner, you can see my goofy ass holding a trophy in this picture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
