~People who don't read search comments.

I was lvling RNG in Yuhtunga the other day and I put in my search comment that I was @1,000 from 28. So I get a PT, hit 28 and the Rank 7 NIN leader says:

Leader: O.o oh ur 28, that's too high for us.
Me: Are you kidding? It says in my comment that I was 1k from 28.
Leader: o i didnt read it.

What a waste of time.

When you do a /sea, is it that friggin hard to notice that little colored dot next to the person's name and actually press 'enter' once to read it?

- Having to stand 3 hours beofre getting an invite to a party of 5 WAR

- Watching an Elvaan THF with +7 DEX performing a SA and dealing the same damage as your Mithra with +17 DEX

- Having everyone in your PT running and screaming around without voking/attacking while you're standing in the camp with the gob you pulled and being owned.

- Worst thing ever : Your LS buddy ask for help, you want to help him/her but you can't because you don't have the time ;_; ...

- ... and why the hell the game won't let me create a char with the name I want ? There are no people who's named Feline nor Myo on Bismarck >_< !

- Mr.X : "I can't target this NPC"
GM : "Buy a new modem."
Mr.X : "I can't send messages through the flist
GM : "Buy a new graphic card."
Mr.X : "My char is stuck !"
GM : "Buy a new computer."
Mr.X : "Are you kidding ?"
GM : "Buy a new sound card."

buying two spike clubs from the Wood guild house thinking they will be cheaper, only to find out shortly thereafter, that you could have achieved them for 1/10 the cost on the AH. Bye Bye night of earnings from farming...

As wintaru said, yes I was thinking exp, not cash for chrissakes :P

" an hour of farming for 2000 xp" is your exact quote :P not "an hour of farming gil, to pay for 2000 xp worth of leveling"

I wish I could get a 5 rng pt, but I'm content, not getting chain 8-9, yes it is props for both rng and rdm pt's, 5 uber damage, and one self refreshing enfeeb and minor healer.

Blackmage element parties clean up in the same fashion, also not something i've had the joy of.

Thanks Win, see you in game man.

* Being utterly bored in the game and not knowing what to do with myself. All the parties I get in seem to be lacking, I'm too broke to continue levelling alchemy, and I can't find a good cash-cow niche to exploit for money with cooking.

* People campspawning the cooking guild for tarutaru rice. *shakes a fist at you, you know who you are*

* Not being high enough level to feel like I'm of worth to my LS.

* Working nights, and thus losing out on optimal party time 3-4 days a week. And losing out on being home when it seems the rest of my LS is alive and active.

* My ISP dropping me when I'm getting ready to do something important, like a mission, a quest, AF coffer running, PTing, etc... but never when I'm sitting there doing nothing in game but picking my butt and looking for any excuse to log other than ennui.

* That damned Dragostea Din Tei song and the fact that it's been lodged in my brain ever since seeing that stupid flash video. Its not helping matters that I went and downloaded the damned song and now can't seem to bring myself to stop listening to it in an infinite loop.

The fact that Dragoon has had its reputation smashed into itty bitty pieces. A great f-ing job that gets treated like it's useless.


Agreed. Of course, we may both biased by the fact that they don't need refresh.

I've found when that happens if you refresh it'll show up. Not sure what exactly is happening.

Having to put 3 seconds inbetween each keystroke on your keyboard in order to make a legible sentance while typing in lower or port Jueno.

I cant even read half the crap I type at normal typing speed in Jueno

Hmm... interesting.


-Using a 3-hour food, and dying within the first 15 mins! ><

-People, who think that getting 5K xp in 4 hours, is fantastic xp. (What kind of parties are you people getting into???!!!!)

-Elitist know-it-alls

-People, who feel it's necessary to tell me exactly what subjob, what equipment, and what stategy I should use, all the time, or I'm a worthless character. t(*.*t)

-getting random invites, with no flag up. If I wanted a party, I'd ASK for one!

-Goblin Alchemists, damn magic-resistant bastards!

-The neverending hate and fight threads, on these forums.

-Forgetting, to switch my macro board. 'there goes my Convert macro... AGAIN!' /facepalm

-Oh oh, and I KNOW you all hate this one: Right as the party starts to fly its skillchain, the Mandragora decides it's time to sleep everyone! /fume

-Personal idiocy: Like, attacking a Fire Elemental, with zero buffs up, and not even checking it. I'm lucky I lived.

After hours of fighting for coffer keys, teleporting out, before everyone passed.

Going all they way through Delkfutt's Tower, to the ambassadors, before realizing, I forgot to talk to my embassy.

Accidently hitting your 2-hour macro

YES! I do hate that one. I'm not even part of the skillchain most of the time, but it's one of those things that makes the whole party scream.

-People who ***** about others who try to help everyone cause they have no damn patience.

-Having a job, where I need to have another job at 70+ just to get what I need to "not be gimped."

-Doing my job the hard way, cause I'm forced to.

-Having your dreams built up, only to then have them smashed to pieces in a matter of minutes.

Going to farm in Delkfutts' 10th floor as MNK56, seeing Porphyrion, and deciding to take him because I got walked through rank 4 and haven't fought him before, then watching my MNK-ish HP (down to about 3/5, so about 750) drop to ZERO because he uses Eagle Eye Shot when i have Counterstance up (defense = 30 -_-) and does 774 damage.

Also, not having anon on when i die, so every person who shows up gets to see a 56MNK destroyed by an NM 20 lvls below him. Thank you Tsetsuo for the Raise2! ^^
