Let me tell you about someone.Follow

Well, it's 2010 and I've played 6 damn years of this game, but this is only the 2nd time I've been this sad to see someone go.

Anyone who knew me in 2004~6 knew I rolled with Leeluu, a really solid WHM who would spend all her time answering shouts in Lower Jeuno because there wasn't much that was more important than helping other people.

Well right now I'm pretty pissed because a good buddy, Kotum, is quitting. We met 6 years ago when I formed IntensityLS, a shell so n00bish that we actually bragged about killing Genbu.

Years passed after ILS and circumstances had us without a LS again, and I have to admit I had more fun than I've had in a very long time duoing Limbus, an event that seems designed with BLM and RDM in mind. Kotum and I cleared NW together, not an accomplishment that's worth more than a mention with a hint of bragging, but something that took us a bit of work, and a small chunk of EXP. In the process, we both did stupid shit that may have cost us the win, but it never friggin mattered because we were having a blast. That's the thing about Kotum, not only did we have a great time, but we accomplished things that weren't exactly easy.

Too many times I've grouped with people that never took a chance at the risk of loosing a little EXP, and too many times I've grouped with people that only cared about how much they could benefit from their effort. I never felt like I was imposing upon Kotum, more like I was raising the enjoyment level of anything I was doing by inviting him along.

He is a fundamentally good person, and he's leaving FFXI after 6+ years of playing. I donno whose on your friends list, but mine just got a lot shorter, GL man, I hope I see you in XIV!
