new to game looking for a helpful linkshell and friendsFollow

My friend and i are looking for a linkshell that is friendly, helpful and easy going
we are both about a week into the game and the current linkshell we are in does not help new people. We are both in
Our 30's. We are experienced mmo players but new to ffxi. Just want a group of people we can do quest, rank missions, exp grinds and gear runs later on after we have some experience in our belts. My screen name is purpledrank and friends name is gonchy. Thank you
