I never understood why you felt like you should have lotting rights on two characters? I mean do people really expect to lot items for their mule over others? As an officer do you really think I should give people items for their mules over other members? How many people do you think would agree with this type of linkshell system?

I am happy that you no longer have to be part of a "clusterfuck" of a linkshell. Really I mean we play this game for fun and to help others acheive their goals. So if you prefer to xp your rdm than help people acheive their goals, then I am happy that you didnt have to waste your time doing something that you didnt want to do in the first place. But if you would rather xp a job instead of doing events, why join a hnmls in the first place? What type of endgame linkshell are you looking for? How many ls would allow you to turn the shell off and not help others but still allow and encourage you to get items on two characters? When you figure out the type of linkshell that will let you do that, maybe write a book on it or something.

When you first joined EQ you talked about your "dream item". We helped you achieve your "dream item" and you didnt even show any sort of appreciation for it. Its this item that you wanted so bad, so bad that you wouldn't even reinstall your game and spend 4 whole hours (when you have spent what 500 days playing the game) to update stuff so you could play your character and use your beloved item. Maybe you need to assess what your needs and wants are in this game?

Another thing I find amusing is when Duskk was in Equilibrium and we were pumping out tons of salvage gear and doing a majority of salvage events. On peoples applications he would always talk about how people were being "leetches and how they didnt give a fuck about the linkshell and were just joining because they wanted salvage gear." Funny thing is everytime he talked about that stuff, I thought you were one of the people he was referring to about among a couple others. But yet you claim to be such good friends with them? Maybe realize too that people just like to bitch because its easier to be negative than it is to be positive.

I never saw this comment come up or recieved an e-mail notification on it so sorry on the delay of answers for your barrage of questions. "Easier to be negative than positive?" It depends on the person but I still talk to Tony to this day and I still consider him a friend, he came out and said that he was talking about me and other people in the beginning so what you're saying is true, people jump to conclusions, it happens. Next up, not show any sort of appreciation? Is kneeling saying thank you tons of time not enough, what else am I suppose to do get on my kness and suck you and the rest of EQ off? I am grateful for the item and I've said it before. I did get lazy on a reinstall of the game but at the same time it was more than that, why keep doing it when the problem continues to occur a few weeks later. All SE can blame is the Operating System not accepting the files, as I have called tech-support multiple times on the issue. Maybe I had been in the shell at a bad time but the shell did seem like a clusterfuck towards the end, maybe it was because of everyone leaving when they did and for the reasons they did but I ended up being involved in some way, shape, or form. Pre-hand I did enjoy my time in the shell and the people in it. I don't think it ended how I wanted it to but it did and I can come to terms with that. I did prefer to EXP Red Mage than to attend any events what so-ever, it was fun to hang out with old friends that I've known for many years now since before playing FFXI and there was a sacrafice involved with having that fun I can see. I never, ever said anything about not wanting to help people though, I would attend events and never ask for any kinds of items directly. I even passed that Hope Torque to Fist who has what, 4 Sea Torques now, just because of my poor attendance. Items aren't that big of a deal to me and as far as items for two characters, 2x0 is still 0. I see exactly what was being said before on a much larger scale now, I bring up the issue of two character to Lil and look what happens, it becomes this large center of attention where nothing else matters, props to Tony yet again. I didn't say I wanted items on two characters directly, the whole problem came up when I asked why Hyo wasn't on the aquired abjurations list and then I found out about that rule. I was fine with it but at the time and also currently I play Hyo much more than Axel, it's a change from Corsair to this and Corsair to that which was overall just sickening my game experience after so many years of it. Even if I could have changed my main char it would have made me happy but what happened happended. I did look for some screenshots of the conversation with Lil to post but I guess I never took them so unfortunately I can't share them. Let's not forget on how with the last night of the shell I stood in Aydeewa Sub. for over an hour waiting for an invite to the alliance so I could help you all do some ZNMs in which I never recieved an invite and then I come back to Whitegate to find out I'm not participating enough. I know I wasn't participating enough and I accept responsibility for that (starting to repeat myself here) and I know I never asked directly or hinted at lotting rights for two characters as I wanted to forfeit one for the other and when I not only couldn't get on Axel due to a repeating glitch that still happens to this day on my pc (which is why I went and bought Wings of the Godess on the Xbox recently) and couldn't lot on Hyo, what was to keep me going to events other than to help people, I'm all in for helping people and I'm not asking for you to fund me two salvage bodies in less than a year or I'll swap servers but it does promote a pretty low incentive for myself to show to events when I can be having fun exping a job with old friends that I don't hang out with other than in Dynamis. I don't know any shell that allows two characters to lot other than SOTA and no I don't agree with it which is why I never asked for it in the first place which seems to be hinted at. I enjoyed most of my time with the shell, other than towards the end and I hold no hatred to anyone in the shell and I hope no one hates me in it. With school, work and a girlfriend it's better off for me to have a free schedule now and back when I joined I only had 3 days a week that I was at work which is alot different than waking up at 5 AM EST every morning and staying out until 5 PM EST in the afternoon to come home tired as hell. I apologize for the inconvenience I may have caused with Equilibrium, especially when it didn't need more than it had and I hope you all continue to do how you want to do in the FFXI world.
