Returning player needs helpFollow

Hello fellow Ragnarokans. I first started playing ffxi back around 2 months after the game came out. It was great. All us americans were all noobs running around valkurm learning how to skill chain and eventually learning that certain jobs were required in a pt to make it actually run. I was a galka back then, choose him cause of the way they look. Little did I know what a hard time I would have trying to get that guy through mage leveling and acquiring things he needed (like astrals) to get him there. I don't know if anyone remembers him. "Balraforte" Like alot of people, I just fell out of the game. This game does require a lot of time, and many a hardships were happening at that time. I eventually got back into mmorpg'ing. I even tried WOW. But that game just didn't hook me like ffxi. Well I'm back now and I don't know if it's the server but now everyone is so far down in the game. No one is leveling down here in the beginning. I'm looking for help, /bow, I have a lot of quest, missions I need to get done, and trying to make new friends, and maybe even joining a linkshell. My new char is elvaan female named Bellafonte. Please send me a /tell ingame or pm here.
Can't wait to meet everyone and maybe run into some old friends as well!

If you have any questions feel free to contact me in game. I have no problem helping out.
