Hi FFXI Community,
Background:
I stopped playing in 2005 after my LS disbanded and many people switched to WoW. I think the waiting in Jeuno for hours forming a party only to get to camp and to hear that the main healer has to go was the last straw for them after the 1000th time.

http://ffxi.allakhazam.com/db/charsearc ... tion=basicI just heard about Nasomi last week after hearing a co-worker talking about Ninja making 500k a month on Twitch. So I googled him and saw that he was playing FFXI with his brother and I was like 'Woah, what is Nasomi?' and discovered more about it. Anyways, so far it's been great and I discovered a lot of very friendly people. I've always thought about FFXI and there is nothing like us. I read at least over 100 articles in the last week and I am happy to see that FFXI is still strong and there are many people out there who are better writers than I am who eloquently explained the awesome feelings of FFXI and why we're so passionate about the game so many years later; we're like a tribe.
I'm only 1500 exp away from 18 and getting a sub-job (exciting times!) and the 2005 feeling is still there (especially after running through two zones to get to Dunes). Someone gave me 20,000 gil to help me purchase starter items and I am very grateful for their help. I completed the 2nd mission in Bastok to build fame and get back into the story, and a few quests, especially to obtain the Lv. 7 Sparta sword.
So far, everything has been great and the people are awesome. I will do what I can to promote Nasomi and remember, the more people we help, the better the community will be.
Cheers,
