The two of them have done what should not be: They now work together.

Its now ********Hisisy and Bokeli Tele-service*******

Mergers.... gotta love them. When one goes, the other shouts, and grabs a few people and goes as well. Just as he goes Hisisy pops back up and starts shouting again.

When I need a teleport (which is infrequent), I don't care what their asking price is. I offer to pay 1000g standard, regardless.

The reason why is because usually, If I am resorting to looking for a Teleport, I am trying to hurry somewhere, and am quite willing to pay a little more for prompt and friendly service.

The other reason is that I don't see teleports as a right of players, but rather a priviledge. I am very grateful for the serive at all, and when I need to use it, I am even more thankful that someone is willing to take the time out to assist me in that way.

I enjoy paying a little extra to people who deserve a tip.
My problem is that I tend to be too nice about it, and "tip" everyone, regardless, the same (whether they deserve it or not).

    Heh, I asked Hisisy to tele me from mea to holla earlier, and they could barely even speak any english ("lol", "k", and a lot of mixed up auto-translates to get me to put up my party flag for him to invite me.) But before they've spoken good english. I'd agree that there is more than one person on there.

    OK, heres my story:

    I was on a couple days back at around 4 pm CST, and Hisisy and Bokeli r both doin their thing. I leave to go to work, and when i get back at around 12:30, Hisisy is still there spamming. So i decide to try something.
    /tell Hisisy {Hello!} May i ask what your rl name is? (If you don't mind)
    Hisisy>> {i'm sorry} {i don't know how to answer that question}

    Hmmm...

    Then the nxt day i get a tele f/ Bokeli, and i bluntly ask him, "So whats it like to tele-spam 24/7?" He replies, "? what is 24/7?" So me and the other person getting tele try to explain this to him, and then he still doesnt get it. He also did not know basic english aside f/ any words having to do w/ teles... lol, tele OK, 500 gil, etc.

    draw ur own conclusions.

    Well something funny happened with Hisisy...

    She tele'ed me to Mea with a group of other people... Its all ok its a normal path. But then she used Tele-Altep (and I of course dont have the crystal) So Im left in Mea far from Dem. So Teles back to Mea and uses Altep again (/sigh).

    Goes to Jeuno picks up another 3-4 people to Mea and gets me to Dem.

    Glad I never paid... I always pay after or during casting of tele... This time I never paid....

    Oddly enough sometimes they make up good sentences. Sometimes no... Oh well.

    I figure they make about 2-3k every 5 mins. So about 30k an hour. 600k+ in 24 hours.... MINIMUM

    Hello, I'm a 51 Whm and I never spam for tele's. I just wait for someone to shout for a tele needed and I try to invite them before anybody else (lol, I have to be fast though). As far as Hisisy and Bokeli, they seem to be gil farmers. I couldn't possibly to tele's all day, I would lose my mind!!! Oh, and one thing that annoys me, people shout for a tele, you invite them, they /p: oh sorry, i changed my mind. That's my 2 gil on the situation!

    As far as i am concerned, I am just a fly on the wall for this one, I will get a Teleport from who i can when the mission is essencial. I will say, I liked Vawn's the best though, the whole magic letter of the day was good, along with Seifer's He gave me free buffs ^^ But things like that done happen very much. Just my 2 cents. :p Anywho, Yeah. Thats all lol

    Blacklisting everyone in Jeuno... as tempting as that sometimes sounds, I'm sure that will help you so much when you find yourself desperate for assistance in completing missions, getting your AF keys and the like in your later levels.

    I don't think Hisisy is a bot either... he's in one of my LS's that i have, talks in fluent english and everything.

    I usually see the 38 WHM job on him, but the other day, i saw him partying as a 54BLM/WHM.

    I saw someone today outspam both Hissisy and Bokeli combined. I believe his name was Leox. Or something like that. His spam was...

    i can all teleport (Do you need it?) 500-1000g

    I have been suspicious of Hisisy being a worker. Now that it's confirmed, no more tele for her. She tried to rip me off twice now: I asked for tele-dem but she took me to tele-mea with the other peeps. Then, tried to run off w/o taking me to the right place. Bokelli, same thing. They both eventually took me to the right place, but I had to kiss alot of taru ***, which is stupid. When I goto Lower Jeuno, I'll know my services are going toward the people, for the people, not to meet a quota for my "company". I'm angry at worker bees. Not because of competition, but 'cuz its not right.

    You get the point. Funny he also used to speak english. Now he just knows a few sentences. In fact these senteces:
    1) "I can all the teleports..."
    2) "pt me"
    3) "Where are you?"
    4) "ok"

    Wow, it looks like Lil' Jon plays FF now! I'm sure he also said "Yeah!" at some point, you probably just missed it. ^^

    You guys don't understand at all. I talked to Bokeli before. I told him of what you guys were saying about him here.

    (Note: Bokeli was speaking in a mixed english, so it was kinda hard to understand, but I managed to put it all together.)

    He told me that he does sell gil, but not because he wants to. He tried looking for a job, but couldn't find any. So they (I don't know who "they" is) told him that he should sell gil to them for money. He does it because he has to support his family. He has to feed them. He has to do something, and selling gil was the only thing he could do.

    To be honest, I beleive Bokeli, or at least whoever was playing as Bokeli at the time. No one would stand around offering teleports all day in a videogame unless they absolutely had to. What if selling gil is the only thing he can do, because he has a disability that prevents him from doing other kinds of work? Like hes paralyzed from the waist down, or hes deaf?

    What really got me was when he said this: "But don't despise them, they don't know."

    dude..
    So I'm just with my friend in Beadeaux, he was helping me get the items i need for rank 5 quest.

    Turns out Hisisy teleported another friend so i asked if I could get a teleport back. He/she said yes and so while they were casting tele i paid 500g cuz that's normal tele price.
    he totally ******* and said it wasn't enough
    so i gave him another 500. but that's the last time he's getting one gil from me.
    if I would have realized he'd want 1k to teleport me ONE ******* ZONE, I would have just sneak/invis.
    i'm really pissed right now.

    It supports his family?? He obviously is not living in North America. If he were that comment would be just as much of a scam as the people standing on the sides of the roads with "will work for food", but are secretly making 100K a year from begging. Don't believe that. If however, he does live in China, then yeah maybe it could be true. But that's because they have a f-ed up situation there. The amount of money he could possibly be making is close to nothing, seeing that he must work for a company (unless he skipped dinner for his starving family to go get a PC or PS2 and ISP and the monthly charges). Read the comments on "Does FFXI Support Communism??" on this board for more on that subject.

    do you REALLY actually believe that there are people in CHINA playing this game to feed their family?

    If so, they should be emmigrating to another country. seriously.

    if you believe they are, then you are a glutton for scams.

    Okay, I know this is rather off topic and I apologize, but I'll be brief.

    Deaf people are not disabled, and being called disabled would probably insult them greatly. They are simply different than hearing people. Being deaf does not impair a person to the point where he or she cannot function quite normally in society. I'm sorry for the subject change but I'm studying to be a sign language interpretor so I felt I had to say something. Thanks.
