Supergirl Final FarewellFollow

Hello All!

I came to a decision to leave FFXI for good. My characters will be deleted. I've been playing this game ever since the "importers" days where I was in the Conferdation. Later, I joined CrimsonBlood and then TShot (aka SF now). Anyway, it is painful for me to tell you all this but I feel no motivation to continue this game anymore. After three years of playing FFXI, I asked myself "What long life goal did I accomplished from playing FFXI?" In the end, I can not come up with an answer except that all this is virtual. Nothing is real. The friends I made are real but will I never hang out with them and laugh with them as I did online? Sadly, the answer to this is "No!"

This decision I made was not easy as I am very addicted to the game. Heck, I played this game for almost three years! But we all must come to face the truth of reality. No matter how we try to hide it. We are fresh and blood. We get sick, we get old, and we died. What we bring with us are legacy to be pass on to our offspring and for those of you lucky enough, you will be remember in history book.

I moved from DC area to Maine for a new job. I feel it is time for me to move on and do things with my life. I feel the need to start a family, buy a house, and enjoy life for what it is. FFXI may be exciting and addictive but it does not satisfy my need. I sometimes asked to myself what I accomplished all these years. I can to an anwser smaller than a goose egg. Hehehe. Kind of crazy that Easter is coming up.

Anyway, with my last week or so, I will relief all my life spending in FFXI to people who are close to me and have been supportive. Who are these people? Well, they are:

Densentsu - You have all my Dynamis Coins. I hope you upgrade your bow!

Siya - For being there for me since the beginning! You helped me on a lot of things during my noob years! Thanks!

Susurrus - Ok! I don't know you that well and I know you're like a poor as hell taru! But I think you are a cool dude. I am working for Department of Navy in Maine! May the light be with you poor taru!

Jski - I don't know what to give you but will try to give you what is left over. You have been very supportive and encouraging.

Anyway, these are the people who are in my "FFXI's will". I will miss all of you but we have to make a decision at some point to contiune with life and not bound by the virtual world. I might play other online games but FFXI have taken a life of its own and I can no longer stand investing that much time into the game anymore.

Take care everything!

Good Luck, I hope you like Maine! I have been all around the world and I think that Maine is the most beautiful, friendly, safe, and interesting state in the US.

maybe, maybe not. i know some friends of mine who quit and never came back due to RL work etc. i would say if some quitted to play other games, chances is yes they might come back once they realised that ffxi 'may' be better or for worse.

thanks everybody for all the nice farewell.

yes, i am leaving FOR REAL and not coming back. I gave alway all my stuff to my friends and random people. Wow, I gave probably about 400 million worth of stuff. The winner of this all is Densentsu. He was very helpful when I first started out with all these japanese. Yes, I was an importer so it was hard to get help. He also got me in AA (aka TheCalm) now but I didn't feel the LS was for me.

Anyway, he have most of the really expensive stuff. I don't forget people I known for years.

Sorry Fisban that I left you out. I thought you quit this game. I remember you back in the days of Everquest Online Adverture. LOL. We were going to start SODE together too but I figure that's too much work. LOL. I didn't know you were still online as I would definately give you some very nice stuff. Stuff that my PLD was going to use as 75.

Anyway, good luck to everybody in FFXI. I don't have the energy to play FFXI. Life must goes on. I am in the process of buying my first house, settling down with a sexy girl and enjoying life as it should be. FFXI was just in the way. Plus, my connection sucks ***!

Well, thanks for three years of good time. I hope some of you lucky one manage to make good use of my stuff. I know at least several of you got several millions worth of stuff from me while others not as much but better than nothing.

I think we all are "gimping" our real life in one way or another because we play FFXI so much, so at some point we have to break that pattern and put real life first. Good job on accomplishing that.^^

I was there when you went to uncurse Blood Greaves, you had that abjuration (from when CrimsonBlood did Genbu) in your inventory for MONTHS because you always aimed for the best equipment. That's how I remember you. ;)

Take care Supergirl, good luck.
