Funny Noob Sayings. ^_^Follow

My own two nOOb stories:

For about the first 2 hours I played the game, I didn't know how to heal. I would logout because it seemed my HP went up a little bit while I knelt. I asked a friend of mine how to heal myself and after he got off the floor from laughing he patiently explained it to me.

Also when I first started out I was selling off all this stuff I had been getting at the AH and wondering why my funds kept going down. Just by chance, several days later I clicked on my "Delivery Box" at the Mog house just to see what it was. In there was about 35,000 gil.

Another noob story involving someone else:

Wandering around Kazham on the Kujata server is a lvl 28 WAR with NO SUBJOB. Go figure that one.

Ah well, everyone's a newbie once. =^.^=

Thats funny. I, unfortunity have done something similar, and not at as new player. I was out in Rolanberry(sp) soloing and farming with my RDM/THF. When I solo, I change my macro's to use the area spell's, but did not change the name. Well, I get a invite to a party in Crawlers Nest. I except and find the party. They have a WHM, but no BLM, so they ask me to Enfeeb, Nuke and back-up heal. No problem. So we are fighting Crawlers with Maze Lizards running around all around us. A Crawler is pulled. I hit my macro for Dia II, forgetting that I had changed it to Diaga. The entire party get's killed, by Maze Lizards. The party is confused, as well as I, and nobody confesses to any mistake. Lot's chat "Who agroed the Lizards?", "Not me", "What happened?", "That was wierd." Anyway, we all get raise's, wait till curse is gone and heal up. We then pull another Crawler. I lock on and hit "Stone 2", forgetting I had Stonega assinged to the macro. Right when I see the spell hit I realized, "oh s__t, I did not change my macro's. I start shouting "ZONE", "ZONE". It's no good, everyone die's again. I start appologizing to the party and confessing my mistake. I confessed to the Stonega and confessed to the Diaga. I explained my mistake and begged for forgiveness. No use. They booted my butt quicker than snot and called me all kind's of "colorful" names, including "NOOB B_tthe_d", ect.

Lesson learned. Always check your macros.

Though the end of that story is funny, and inexplicable, did you know that you can deliberately go down into those La Theine caverns? You have to for a few different missions, hunting Tumbling Truffle, and going into Ordelle's Caves. ^^

I've actually been considering a few suicidal leaps lately to check out what would happen by falling into the various chasms. They dont call me the curious cat for nothing (nevermind how many times it's killed me). However, I wasnt sure about what kind of monsters could spawn down there so I've been waiting until I have 'decent' armor. Haha. ^^;

In other news: Running backf rom thedunes two nights ago, I cam across this guy standing on a chocobo. Dead silent, half health. Just as I pass him he /tell's me "WAIT!". I figure maybe he wants some of my bait or somethign and run back, looking up at him.

Turns out Steelfleece had spawned on the ledge just above him and he was trying to warn people about it. Especially this little lvl 14 white mage he saw barreling up the hills. I told him I'd be fine, thanked him for the warning and climbed up cautiously.

To see ten low level bodies spread around this ram in a circular pattern. Too bad my screencap list was full. Either way, a /sh notifying people of its location and it was shortly slaughtered.

Problems with being whitemage anon: Ten new players begging you for a raise and to kill the nasty sheep thing. Evryone can tell your white mage from apperance. Gah.

I have a funny noob experiences, all with one guy.

So a buddy and I are on the boat from Mhaura to Selbina after collecting some stuff for the Selbina Clay quest. We get on the boat and there seem to be a good amount of people, around 12 I'd say. I usually just stay below deck because of the things that could happen above (Sea Horror flashbacks). After a while, we hear someone hail a Sea Monk. A conversation ensues where an 18RDM with a subjob asks if he takes it will anyone get in his group to help. I knew this was gonna be good so I go above deck to watch. He ended up getting a 22 WHM and a 17 or so MNK to help him. What ensued had me laughing really hard for a long time. We told them that they won't be able to take it and to just call for help so we can gang-bang it, but they didn't. They got it down to about half health when the WHM got aggro...and quickly died. Then the MNK got aggro...also went down in a few hits. So here was an 18 RDM casting and hitting as fast as he can knowing he's gonna die otherwise. He uses his two-hour and gets it down to within a inch of its life. However, he is also on his last couple HP and then it happens...he calls for help (after minutes of /saying "Call for Help")then dies...AND DELEVELS. I quickly finished it off with one swipe. Luckily for all 3 there was a high level WHM on the boat that raised all of them. After that, then the RDM asked for whatever loot the Sea Monk dropped. Of course he Called for Help so the monster will not drop anything and we tell him that but he doesn't believe us. Then after about 10 people said this he believed it. And then the boat ride ended...

We told this story to our LS and they all laughed pretty hard. About a half hour later, our other compadre who had stopped by Windy instead of hopping the boat with us ran across the same RDM in Buburimu face down in the sand. We told her not to raise him because he had to learn at some point. He sent her a tell asking for a raise and when she said no, he asked her to find him a raise. Keep in mind they don't know each other either.

Meh, it would be funnier if you woulda been there.

i was asking how to equip my union sword =P

This isn't really from In Game, it was an AIM convo, but it relates to FFXI, so I thought I'd share it =)

<friend>: why can FF XI be on GC
<me>: ...
<friend>: so i'd only have to buy the damn modem crap
<me>: <thinks for a moment>
<me>: <Thinks of two responses>
<me>: <Knows one will get his *** kicked.>
<me>: <goes with that one>
<me>: BECAUSE NINTENDO SUCKS =)
<me>: <runs>

Damn nintendo fan boys =(

Ah yes, and on the subject of the Beastmaster and -trying- to attack the mobs, I recently aquired beastmaster, and I've been known to coax newbs that "Its just a harder mob, keep trying to attack it, you'll get it eventually" =)

>_<


Yeah, on Fenrir this was my PT in Yhoatar once...

27/13 War/mnk (me)
28 War
27/1 Whm/Blm
28/6 Blm/Whm
28/10 Rdm/Whm
27/9 Mnk/War

meep...


D'oh! WHY DID I JOIN THAT PT? >_<

Died twice in... 30 minutes... /disband

okay this is weird...
my jpn friends told me this story
There was a lvl 50 nin wanting Utsusemi2
and my jpn friend was attacked my /tell everyday
[ninja]lvl50 [utsusemi]2 [can i have it?]
my friend totally ignored this
but then another non-related jpn friend of mine told me the same story...
so this GALKA is a PLAYER with nin 50 WITHOUT utsusemi2...
anyway the second friend acctualy has the utsusemi2 after 40bcnm so she sold it for 2k. not too expensive, my friend didn't need much more money i guess >A<

THEN a few days later.. THE SAME GALKA tells her to give a utsusemi scroll.... like WTF
so my friend says NO i don't have
the the galka says. "n00b"...

to a jpn whos lvl 75 SAM (plz hes always never ANON)
this guy didn't know what n00b actually mean!

And guess what! hes on the JPN B-list website...
good for him!

I've seen worse than a lvl 21 with no sub. I've seen a lvl 28 rdm with no sub before in Yhoater Jungle.

I still trying to remember if I may have pissed off a JP player

I am guilty of advertising my Warp spell, giving /shouts asking if ppl needed to be warped, failing to realize that it was Warp II that was able to teleport other PC's.

Also partying in Qufim:
Tank: Good job with the skillchain! (Liquefaction)
Tank: How much did you MB for?
BLM: MB?
Other guy: magic burst
Tank: magic burst
me: magic burst
BLM: wuts a magic burst?

the BLM was lvl 20 btw.
