ServerRant/HelpMeOutFollow

This is the 1st time ever Ive been upset at a server maiteinence(cant spell). Today I was gonna play all day til my bro had Kirin but now I cant play at all cause his Kirin is obviously getting pushed back. Im going camping this weekend so this was my only chance to play.
On top of that my cousin got the game last night and now I wont be on to show him the ropes and such.
/rant off
So I got 2 questions
1) What is a good job/race/city for some1 who is I think a total newb to all rpgs lol? (I think he played some FF9 or something)
2) If I cant be on this weekend could I give him some names of ppl to ask for help from? Im worried hes gonna wind up dying to a goblin all weekend cause he didnt know how to attack lol. (Like I did)
{Thank You} in advance to any1 who can help. idk wht his name is yet cause he made a character on the wrong server and hes gotta delete it now.

tarutaru/blm or galka war or something like that.. something extreme <3

as for a mentor of some sort.. cliff ungimp your sj and i'll do it :P

hey im cliffs cousin, yeah i could use some help this weekend, I have a couple of your names and I'll add you guys to my list it'd be awesome just to learn the ropes and everything.


Thanks everyone, I will update this thread with my name on FFXI so you get back to me. As soon as the servers come back on.... sigh.....
