 Post subject: missing the good times in FFXI

I haven't looked at the fraps folder in my computer for over a year. It's in an odd location and I randomly found it last night looking for something else. I looked through a bunch of FFXI pictures, and reading old /tell and LS conversations made me really miss the people I used to play with. It's been a little over 2 years since I've logged in, and I would have done so last night if any of those people still played. How can I miss playing this evil game after 2 years? Does that still happen to any of you? I'd like to go back in time and re-live the good times in FFXI.

Aemon is the living embodiment of good old times.

Nostalgia is for fags though. Big difference.

My fraps folder needs some pruning. I probably still have a few good shots in there.

What I want to know is how you are going to have an orgy without the chicks being naked?

FFXI was fun, but I can't consider it the most fun I have ever had. There were times in FFXI that I was bored out of my fucking mind.

I was looking at my screen shots. I realized I have almost 20 screen shots for every day I played FFXI.

There are already alot of great pics on this site. You just have to search for them.

I don't have any pics myself but I did a google search for about 5 minutes till I came across this little gem.

Oh Helmut how I miss thee.


Also, here is a nice little thread about the good/bad times.

Im looking into some way I can create a slide show with all my screen shots.

If I made a slide show of all my screen shots and used one shot per second, Id have a video that was an hour and 26 minutes long.

lol Kluya, ya we had fun times. I recently re-loaded the game and activated my account and leveled my WM to 30! The lvl/sych thing works great and even after all these years FFXI is STILL a good game. I'm playing Aion atm and waiting on FFXIV to go beta!!

OK it took me like 2 hours, but I finally setup my ftp access again to this site lol. I can upload pictures once more!


Here's some never before posted pictures. I'll put the date the image was taken.

This image just stood out to me. Its from Aug 09 2004, back when people still like Talisin.
Image


This is when we had a really rare claw drop. We were freaking out when this dropped.
Image


I thought this would be funny to post. Anyone know how much the V. Claw goes for now?
Image


I can still remember when this happened. I laughed so hard out loud. PIX PIX FOR LIFE!
Image


Probably one of the best moments in FFXI history. Pryo took a spaz and broke the MasterPearl for Hokuten. I always carried a blank master pearl, so when someone whispered it to me, I quickly took the Hokuten name. Ohh man was that fun. So many people were mad at me haha
Image


I think we all remember this nobody haha.

Oh one more thing. I opened up the FFXI screen shots folder.

http://www.yarrthepirate.com/FFXI/

theres a lot of old screen shots in there. Pretty much everything thats been posted on this forum is in that shot.

LOL... That someone was me. Lets not protect me anymore yarr lol.

I only did things because it was for the greater good. It was never that i had ill intentions. Greater good also meant hilarious reactions afterwards

Am I really remembered?

And holy fuck, Mentor status?

That was my original Viviti, before I deleted... In all my RDM/WAR glory.

Now that really is nostalgic haha...

I'll find one to post...

Well, I found a few:

CKD showing up to camp an NM that I wound up claiming! They were good sports about it!
Image

Yarr and Kayne's secret love affairs! This taru tells all!
Image

Some familiar friends giving me a hand in a very cold place...
Image

Thats my only old ones I think I have anymore.

I actually had a folder a looooong time ago of "CKD Sightings" because I never saw any CKD people in-game, that screenshots of them were a rarity.
Fuck what I would give to get that data back, that was like 8 corrupted hard drives and 6 computers ago, haha.

I Remember when you got that NM first Viv lol.

I think this screen shot is from that same hunt.

Image Took me like 20 minutes to find this.

I dunno, in my shot you were on summoner, I camped Huu Mjuu the Torrent alot back then though (I think Monster Signa was still something like 900k)

I probably saw you out there more than once... because I remember another time when you guys claimed and got the drop for Talisin I think.

EDIT: Also, apparently I only wore that ugly scalemail stuff for years, haha. It looks so strange to me now after all this time being black mage instead of gimpy rdm.

I had screenshots of the time we were all low level jobs running around near Sandy. That was retarded.

Some of the best times I had in game were when we MPK'd fellow LS members (Dynamis comes to mind).

I was going through Milly's screenshots and found a screenshot of us on low level jobs by the holla crag... wiped to the Goblin Archeologist.. haha

Kayne both made me laugh and made me cry with the MPK antics... lol I miss that kid.

Kayne would mysteriously aggro an entire zone and train it on everyone, good times.
