I log into the game for the first time and two buds send me a tell. Naturally, I reply back no prob.

Them: Hey, where are you? Did you make a char in Sandy?

Me: Yup, I'm in Sandy by the AH. I checked map.

Them: I don't see you. You sure you are by AH? Tell us what you see.

Me: I see people. Wait. I'm by a crystal. What's that?

Them: K, we know where crystal is at. We'll go get you.

*30 minutes later*

Me: Hey, you guys coming?

Them: Uh, we can't find you.

Me: ...

Them: ...

( moral: Even if someone has played longer than you have albeit one week, there is no grounds to assume they know more than you do~)

OMG i was leveling my SAM (lvl 13 now, 12 at the time) in the dunes today and i had a noob war in the party. Asked him if he would be the tank. Didn't know what tanking was which we explained as provoking the creature.
<noob> Why would i want to do that?!
promply leaves party...

Then a lvl 11 noob war...what's up with War's now days i swear i wasn't like this when i started
We go to look for a camp after we pick up a whm in the tunnels
He provokes a hill lizzard and dies
<noob> I thought you guys were behind me, i saw feet.
I'm playing in first person and i swear i saw your feet.

I then disbanded and all the while he was calling my fren and I idiots for disbanding because he died.

In Jeuno there was a 30 war sending shouts for help with samurai quest. I don't remember the exact line, but it was obviously macroed and something like.

"Looking for help with samurai quest from a level 60+. Offering 1k reward."

Along those lines, I had someone offer me 700 gil to PL them from 11-15 or something. Would have been smarter to just ask as a favor, at least he wouldn't have looked as stupid.

A few other moments - my infamous PT in the Citadel that insisted that no enfeebles be done by anyone, under any circumstances. 5 people backing this up, including a rdm. Since I'd never been to Garlaige, I tried it for a while, just to see if I was the one who was crazy. Strangely enough the guys were so well equipped + skillchaining, bursting, etc, that we make so-so exp regardless. Wierd.

The guy who couldn't get the Kazham airship pass, even though he had the keys. Took me a while to figure out he hadn't registered the expansion pack. Not such a n00b moment yet (more newb) until he starts ******** me out because *he* can't get the quest.

I guess everyone has partied with the war that won't provoke and the whm who won't cure until after the battle, so I won't relate those stories in detail..

May this thread never die!!

it's not really funny, but while i was fishing the other day, 2 different "new adventurers" came up to me.

the first one stayed there for about a minute, examined me and sent me a tell "your fishing thats cool". then walked away.

the second one walked up to me, examined me 3 times and shouted "hi". I ignored him, and received a lovely tell from him in return.


/sigh

almost forgot this one, though I don't know how...
Leveling thf in dunes a few months ago, roughly in the 18 range, and we're fighting the tier 3 goblins. Unfortunately, now matter how well our group would have been prepared, we couldn't handle the FOURTH add, though the other 2 died. So, we're waiting for a raise for our pld (only one who died before we got the 4th one) and our taru blm decides he's bored (yeah. that kind of blm) he suddenly screames out "BLOOOOOD! I NEED BLOOOOD!" takes out his club, and whacks a rarab while everyone else in party tries to stop him. I like to imagine that when he was screaming for help from party, he was using will farrel's voice from the austin powers movies (you shot me, right in the arm!) kind of thing. Anyways, if you haven't seen a taru blm get pretty much raped by a small rabbit, preferably while not in that blm's party, I highly you suggest you go and find a willing one^^

I've done nothing but read this thread from beginning to end when I found it... I've been filling LS chat with the tales.. my especial favorites was the lvl14 rdm who didn't know what cure was and the Tactical Casting WHM...

Anyway:

<partymember> poisona pls
*BLM casts Poisonga*
*18 mobs aggro BLM*
<BLM> WTF &*&^%(*()^*& why did you tell me to cast that?
*disbands*



also:
from a SUM noob: "How did your LS get that cool M in it?"

Got a new one: lvl 25 sam in kazham today, shouting if anyone wanted to start a party, when there was a rdm and blm in his lvl range LFG. I pointed that out over shout, just so that the RDM and BLM would have a fair warning that they're about to be invited by him, and should probably macro the disband command. I mean, he's already gone through how many lvls without learning about the "find member" button, or "/search [lvl-lvl] inv"?

Hehe, these are all so funny so I thought that I'd share some of my noob stories ^^. Ok when i was first starting out i knew nothing, so i was reading all the information that came with my game. So i was reading the little thing that says the emotes and some basic commands and what different coloured names meant. So i read it and it said PC character's names are in blue and such. I was all like whoa! there are computer characters that run around!!! that is soo cool ^^. So i was running around a few hours after that and i seen one of these PC characters so i invited him into my party to see what he'd do. When i did i said hello! mr.PC and he was like hey ^^. Then i was like wanna gop lvl and he was like OK ^^. Then my brother comes by and hes like cool your in a party what lvl is the guy? And i reply hehe i dunno hes a computer guy you can't check him. My brother replied to this by saying something about how i'm so dumb and that buddy was annonymous and so on ^^. So then i ask the guy if he was an actual person or a computer and he says a person so i was like oh... well hehe ^^ JOKE! then i ran away and logged off feeling embarressed >_<

When i first started fighting out in the open in front of Bastok i got in a party with another low level and locked onto him by accident...for half an hour i thought my game was glitching. Finally i got unlocked.

A couple days later it happened again and i truly thought my game was wrecked....lol

Running around in Ghelsba and I saw a guy use 'Voke to break an orc away from the (quite large) herd. Needless to say 2 seconds later he was running his *** off with a train of perhaps 15 orcs on him. The most gratifying part was watching him scream "WTF ARE ALL THESE ORCS CHASING ME FOR! I ONLY 'VOKED ONE!!!!11!!"

Once I was fishing in windy and had seen a player fishing in the same spot over the last few days. As a level 8, I thought he was a bot, rather than someone with too much time on his hands, so I accidently reported him to a gm. Later when I told my ls the name of the "bot" someone /telled him and explained to me that he was Japanese and couldn't speak English.

I felt a little guilty after that one : {

When I first got SMN I was standing just outside of the Bastok Markets gate, admiring myself and reveling in my accomplishment by leveling my summoning skill with the atomic squirrel and earth elemental. I was /anon and had lvl 1 equip on. I summon the earth elemental:

noob WAR (lvl 5 or 6 I think): /attempts to fight the elemental
noob WAR: /t <me> stand still and dont cast any magic!
noob WAR: /t <me> I'll help you, just dont move and no magic!
noob WAR: /t <me> I didnt know there were elementals here...ok here's the plan, I will get you to safety the zone is right there.

He then /tells me this elaborate multi-step plan to get us to the zone safely. I remain silent.

noob WAR: /t aww sh**....you are a summoner arent you?
me: yes ;)
noob WAR: please dont tell anyone about this....I gotta go

And he ran off. LOL, that was too funny. He took it like a champ, though, and he's probably a darn good player now. Great post, I needed a laugh or two. ^_^

im currently a BRD26/WHM13, but i was starting to get a teeny bit bored with the level grind (minus money, mind you), so i decided to go to mhuara and start the chain of quests that would land me a tea set and tableware set (im a cook also, btw. ^^). so, i chocobo from jeuno down almost to selbina with RDM29/WAR14, zone in and hear this shout conversation:

/sh<noob> SOMEONE IS GONNA GET ME KICKED FROM THE GAME, AND I DONT CARE
/sh<noob> THIS IS THE F*%$&%$ STUPIDEST GAME EVER! (explitives included in full)
/sh<noob> why would they make a game where you cant get your subjob!!!

so, in pity, i send him a /tell:

/t <noob> there was a party a little while ago offering help with subjob quest items.

/sh<noob> I DONT NEED HELP WITH THE ITEMS! IF YOU CANT SOLO IT, THEN THIS GAME SUCKS!

/t <noob> this game is made so you HAVE to party, unless youre a BST.

/t <noob> if you dont like to play with other people, i dont think this is the game for you.

finally, he uses tell.

/t <me> WTF do you know? you never solo'd 50 ghouls on your own and never get a skull!!!

i /sea all <noob'sname>
19 mnk/nothing

/t <noob> ...i highly doubt you have solo'd 50 ghouls.

/t <me> well, <insertgamename> is a lot better than this one anyways!

/t <noob> then i think thats the game you should play. FFXI isnt for everyone.

well, this went on for a short while as i went to mhuara by ship... i was randomly getting /tells from him all night, too. o_O; they looked like mistells, but he honestly seemed to be trying to start convo's with me...

/sigh. i'm now wondering if this could be that MNK from my first post, the one who said he was going to solo his MNK to 30...

Heres my biggest noob moment in month. It happened late last night in an xp pt in Gustav Tunnel.

We have a smei static party and after about 3 hours of getting sub-par xp we were about to disband at about 5 am in the morning.

We had just lost our 6th member due to a disconnect. So the 5 of us were just standing around waiting for him to come back or disband. I was quietly hoping he wouldnt come back so I could sleep.

In my tired stupidity I walked right up to two of the pugil like creatures floating in a little pond. How cute they are. I poke them and laugh. Suddenly I see it in the chat window.

"Watch out they aggro!"

Well they sure did. Both of them. I dont remember what their names are but they both came after the 5 of us and we were far from ready to take on the both of them. The Monk and I (pld) jump on one. While the other 3 players hop on the other one. I am trrying to gain the aggro of both of them so I can just tell them to run for it and let me die. However I am still about 15 mins away from having my 2 hour back. The WHM lets benediction go about 1/3 of the way into the battles and somehow we all manage to keep relative hate coming our way and we all have new life. Slowly I watch ym life bar going down. I see other pt memebers getting low and start spamming Cure II's to keep who ever I can alive. Just as I am about to die the monk/war vokes off of me. Just then I see that the 1st one is dead. The rest of the pt comes over to help out on the second one.

I keep my eye open on the monks hp. Slowly it is being drained from him and he is doen to about 45 hp. One more hit and I know he is dead. My hp isnt much better at around 50 or so. Looking at the pugil-thingy he is down to his last bit of life as well.

I think for a second we might make it through this ok just a few more hits and he should be gone. I let go with fast blade and the thing is still alive! Damn! Looking back at the monk I see he is still one hit away from death (You guys know how fast stuff happens when things go wrong). I'll be damned if I am going to let the monk die cuz of my stupidity. So I voke back onto me and he turns my way. Hits me 1 time and down I go. Dead.

No problem I think. They will kill him and Ill be the one who suffers from my own bad move. However the pugil-type turns back to the monk and lets off one final death blow right before the pugil himself goes down. The last three deaths happened within 3 seconds of each other and if I could have bought the monk another 5 seconds he would have lived. I died, The monk died, and both pugils died. I however felt like the biggest moron on all of Vanadiel.
All I could say was I promised not to play with the fish anymore. Not good.

Love this thread, though its distracted me from a few parties (sorry to them)...

But here's an event I was in.

Was sitting in front of Selbina doing the usual summoning spam while waiting for a party. Finally get an invite to go down to La Thiene and kill clippers. Mages are in abundance in Valkurm so I'm not gettin anywhere anyways. So head down, no real whm in party, but they say they have a level 28 whm to power level us. Cool.

N-E ways first battle, whm did nothing, and I had to throw cures while keeping upkeep on an Ice Spirit. Little to say it was close.

Afterwards ask the whm why he wasn't healing...

"If I would of cast I would of died."

Then I realize what he's scared of and release the Ice Spirit. Followed by brief explanation of summoner, and promising to only use carbuncle to save him from worry. ^^

Just remembered one...

I was in a pt as a 17thf with subjob. We had a slot open up and invited a RDM. This RDM quickly says, "I'll pay you all 100 gil if we can get a magicked skull"

I think the whole pt laughed to themselves, i know i was. But we all reply 'ok'.

Now only one other person in the pt need a skull so he jokes, 'I'll pay you each 500 for the skull!'

The RDM says, "You #$*&# I asked FIRST!"

and drops the party. LOL

Of course we would have gotten the skull for free. :P

I feel N00bish right now. I went and workedon leveling fishing and cooking before going off to Yuhgunta. I knew I was missing Enfire and Enblizzard but figured with a WHM sub, I wouldnt need them.

I did, however, fail to keep myself informed. I checked my job spells a moment ago and noticed Im missing eleven vital spells for my red mage ;_; OMG! How did I mange to get so far behind?!

I blame the fish.

Ok, I am a self confessed noob, so here goes.

biggest noob moment I remember. I was the RDM in a party at level 12-13ish and our puller brings in a sheep. I knew that they put out Sleep, so I made sure I was well out of the AOE. Sure enough, sleep was cast by the sheep when it was close to being food. However, the Thf in the party was not effected, so I kept throwing heals. No one died, but the party was not happy that I didnt know that cure would have woke up the whm, war, and melee's.

I joined a party as a 13 whm/6 rdm and (after reading this thread) decided to have some fun. I immediately said that I wanted to pull and melee because I am a melee whm. LOL. I was immediately kicked. I /em laughs at gullible party leader. I was immediately invited back.

I was in the marshlands for the first time and saw a Marlboro. I was like WTF is that thing. I walk up to it, hit Poke <t>, and found myself waking up at the HP.

I was going to the dunes as a 12 rdm to level (I updated my spells and was thinking of how I have things together.) Running through the Highlands, I see a huge sheep thing, cool sheep dont aggro. "Cool the ground shakes when this thing moves." I woke up at HP.

I ran through the dunes going to Selbina, I wanted to send a tell to a buddy and needed the spelling of his name. I scoll through the log and then see at bottom "Bogy cast -----" I woke up at HP.

I was in the Dunes with a rng in 12-13 level party who said pulling gob ---. We say cool. A short time later, 5 gobs show up (2 Tinkers, Butcher, ? other two). (Im the WHM, only mage in party) War tank engages, I shout "RUN TO Zone" and take off. One by one, I see the party members get defeated. We were by the boat on the beach and all were dead by the time I turned the corner. I get a tell after I zone and start to return
war: Find us 5 raises since you decided not to help us.
I get there, send a shout for raises
me: why did you not run, there was no way we would have survived 5 gobs.
war: Well we could have put one person per gob and you would heal us as we fight.
/em Laugh
me: have you ever played mage before? I can only cast so fast.
war: NO, but you are suppose to sacrifice yourself to keep us alive.
/disband

Well those are what I have.


#523 Jun 07 2004 at 1:19 PM Rating: Decent
I have 2 short stories to share (or am willing to reveal).

I. I had just finished the bard quest and was leveling just outside the Bastok Market gates. It was very crowded with other players at the time so I lost some mobs to other players, a bit frustrating but no big deal. Once, somebody got to a worm before I could and promptly apologized through a tell. In contrast, a second person (the Noob, a 2 lvl Rdm, no subjob, I later checked) used Dia on a bee we both wanted and responded with ":-)". Oh how cute. I said nothing and went back to leveling but eventually got tired and decided to move to a new area. As I was leaving, I saw this same Noob running for his life from a wandering sapling to the safety of Bastok’s walls. Given the irony of the situation, I could not resist.

/em points at <Noob> and laughs

Once he was back inside the city,
/t Noob how about them vicious saplings?

The tell didn’t go through. Maybe he logged out from frustration.

II. A taru whm in my linkshell (who has an annoying propensity to never buy maps before wandering into areas he’s never been before) asked for help with Bastok mission. I agreed to take him to Sandy to kill the Warchief before I logged out for the day. Naturally he didn’t have maps for Ronfaure or the Outpost, so we formed a party so I could keep tabs on him. The trip to the fort was uneventful and the Warchief died real fast, though my linkshell bud had no clue where anything was. More than once, he commented on how big and windy the Outpost was and thanked me for bringing him this far. I was taking him back to Sandy and almost to the exit of the Outpost when I noticed my friend had disbanded. I checked my linklist but didn’t see him. He had given me no warning that he was logging out, so my only conclusion was that he disconnected. I waited 5 minutes for him to come back online but he was a no-show. I said a quick prayer for him that he’d be able to find his way out again, returned to Sandy, and logged out.

He eventually finished the mission and made it to rank 3. Recently, he reached lvl 25 and asked the linkshell for help in finding the three keys so he could go to Kazham. Last I heard, this linkshell member was in Giddeus, his escort had logged out, and he didn’t have a map.

/emote sighs and shakes his head


I've greatly enjoyed this thread. It makes for great reading. Stay alive and happy hunting, dudes.

Got a full pt together to do the Windurst Dragon, got to the burning circle and clicked on it. Apparently we forgot to do the Heaven's Tower part, all except 1 poor soul that went in alone...

"Uh guys, there's a big *** dragon here!"

"um.. he's chasing me now.. where are you?"

"OMG! He's beating my ***, and he's got help!"

"...."


that is totally awesome!
well my noob saying isn't so much a noob saying as it is a misunderstanding. Ne way i was PTing with this guy and while we were healing the following conversation took place.

XXXX: did you hear about the wedding thing
me: yeah i heard their allowing NA players to get married what about it
XXXX: well did you read what the ceremonies are like?
me: no i got as far as the price and i stopped reading.
XXXX: dude you wont believe what the tarutaru do when they get married!
XXXX: they consume each others flesh! i cant wait see it!
me: u must have misread something dude
XXXX: no i swear i read it in that article on playonline homepage!
me: uh okay i guess i got to check that out

we finsh healing and continue to kill things
later on i go to playonline's homepage to check out what he said.
this is what the article says for those who haven't read it yet:
" it is the exchange and consumption of ceremonial foods. This exchange joins the couple in flesh and blood as the ceremony binds their destinies."
okay so the dude's an idiot and i got a good laugh. ^^

OMG i was leveling my SAM (lvl 13 now, 12 at the time) in the dunes today and i had a noob war in the party. Asked him if he would be the tank. Didn't know what tanking was which we explained as provoking the creature.


Just because you have an advanced job doesnt give you the right to call someone a noob or assume that you are not on yourself.

I think he meant that since the guy didn't know what tanking was he was a "noob."

I was in a PT earlier today as BRD 6/WHM 3 with a War7/RDM3, War7, BLM7/WHM7, and a WHM8.

So we go to La Thine (the lake) to fight Thickshells...
Well, on my other jobs, I got to level 12 soloing and did the rest at Valk etc, so i had no experience here...

Well... We attack a Thickshell and it deals 40 dmg to the main tank... We're like wow. The crab continues to beat us to the ground. The secondary tank yells "ZONE" (the main tank is dead) and he starts running away (I know... Great right? ><). No one else zones because the zone is too far.. We just tried our luck. We die in about 20 seconds (mainly because the crab couldnt choose who to kill first). So we all go back to HP and we find out the secondary tank survived and just ran (>.<). Well, the PT just disbands after that. /sigh. Oh and I forgot. The puller did not checkt the mob and we found out it was IT even to our level 8 PT member... Yeah we were screwed. ><.

/em makes a mental note to not go to La Thine till level 9
