Welcome aboard.

I tried running my 360 controller in Windows, but I ran into a driver issue and I haven't bothered to figure out where the problem is. After playing XI on the computer and on the X-Box, I like the keyboard way more.

Welcome aboard!

Hah. Dunno. There was a month where I was signed up to Phantasy Star Online, THAT required two phone calls and a few hoop jumps to stop. The X-Box Live subscription was relatively painless despite the missclicks. Go to your X-Box Live account home page and the billing information (I think), where it...

That applies to dashboard subscriptions only. Game cards exempt. Why you ask? Because on the dashboard your subscription is set to automatically renew. They figure they can sucker people that way. when your "discount" period is over, they rebill you at the full rate. And it's a bear to ju...

You could do all kinds of mean things to DOS and it just wouldn't care.

Then again, it was pretty simple. Adding pictures made it all complicated.

There was a while where I used Netflix, but it got kinda meh after a while.

Now I only have a Gold membership for the few games I play online, and the free demos from X-Box Arcade. Going to drop the subscription.

20:34 Keerith: Markov, say hi to Fiye.
20:34 MarkovBot: hi to Fiye.
20:34 Fiye: Markov, I thought you'd say something worse
20:34 MarkovBot: OK I will try it. something worse.

Voice chat is so 2004. :P Also, Voice Chat uses the mystical powers of teh internet/phone lines to MAKE COPIES OF YOUR SOUL! How else can you talk to 20+ people at the same time when they're not in the room with you? And because it's hosted on a computer, IT KEEPS THE COPIES! To bake into cookies! ...

Don't think so, they're on different license keys so that would mean two characters. From how the other freebie items (the gauntlets from FFXII, the shoes from XI, etc) and the general chat online, you CAN get both - there's a code that you add to your account to 'unlock' it. That being said, it wo...

Do you know what the right of passage thing is? I tried to look it up but no one really seemed to know. Right of Passage Document This document is mailed out to players and contains the name, surname, race, clan, birthday and gender of the character they create. There are three different types, eac...

The glasses look worlds cooler.

Still, I'm getting CE for the free month, security token, and other not-the-helmet goodies.

No.... you old farts should be thanking the those of us born in the mid 80's for creating the demand to develop new tech. O.O I was 3 when I got my first NES. I was also born in 85 O.o; That also still qualifies as NES Generation. <- 1982. I really am an old fart. :D And I try not to do voice chat,...

Hah, yea.

I remember those games. I remember how crazy it was going from the Atari to Super Mario.

Welcome to the pride, and congratulations on the upcoming baby. I hope everything goes well.

Nice. Yea, slow news day, so they have to make up something. It's awesome that you have a band, though. And Nightwish is pretty cool, I've got a couple of their CD's.

They are! I'll try to get some more.

"Hmmm... do I really want to go into this big forest, and possibly get nommed by a wolf?"

ATI? I'd rather play russian roulette with all 6 champers loaded. :P Don't hate. My 2x Ati HD4890 have been doing really well on my rig!! (Yes most of the 5000 series sucked, I know that's why I avoided that series.) Ack, now I feel bad. >.> I've got a 5550. And I'm pretty sure the latest drivers, ...

Heh, neat.

Disciples of the Land: Skills The DoL skills are very similar (if not identical) across all three classes; at level one each class gets a skill (Arbor Call/Gulleye/Lay of the Land) that locates nearby harvest nodes, and another at level 3 (Triangulate/Dowse/Prospect) that locates multiple nodes and ...

Addendum: Class Ranks/Skills (I would like to thank Isania for helping to contribute; she helped list/verify a lot of these) (Also, lists of skills by class are available at http://ffxiv.yg.com and this guide will focus more on analysis than just listing) Disciples of the Hand: Many of the class ski...

The only pic I have so far is the one I took for the profile avatar. I'll have to see if I can dig up something good tonight.

Also, from what I remember (I don't have the character creations screen available to verify at the moment), Seekers have more light skin tone variations, while Keepers have fewer light skin tones and more dark ones. It's the same with hair; there's only one or two shades of blond and no red for Keep...

A retainer is your NPC henchman; they can hold onto items (Mule) or set up a bazar in one of the market wards (also: note that I have yet to find a mail service, so if you need a mule, you'll need a retainer!)

A Keeper is one of the clans of Miqo'te.

I have read all six of the Scott Pilgrim books.

I highly recommend them to everyone. They are full of win, and on a scale of 1 to 10 they rate an "Awesome".

I also DL'd the Scott Pilgrim vs. the World game on X-Box Live. It's fun, but seems a little buggy. Still fun, though.

Great! The admin should be around sometime to get you into the rest of the boards, and we have a list in the XIV board of people who can get you a pearl.

Awesome!

Hi hi!

And FFXI had already been running in Japan for a while before the US release
