Lobby server down again!? ><Follow

Just curious if anyone else is having problems logging in...I went to log out to a mule, got R=0, and haven't been able to log back in.

They really shouldn't let chimpanzees draw pay as IT techs, even if it is cheaper.

^^

Oh good ******' god...This must be why I can't logon POL. Gah!

ok, well, since we can't play FFXI, I propose a game of Play By Message Board.

*I run through Jeuno yelling for a Teleport, fifteen minutes go by and I don't get one, so I cuss a lot and get on a chocobo, which I promptly dump because there's a dead body in the road.

I raise the dead body and start huffing it for the Konstacht, but am aggroed by an Ochu and killed. I delevel, and cuss violently for several minutes before logging out and throwing the contents of my Count Chocula cereal box all over my kitchen*

your turn. :D

Uh...-Farms!- Woo-hoo! So much fun here!

*Goes to mine in yughott grotto. /poke's lucun and is given hello give me coppers in broken english. After a while i get harassed by redapples asking if i'm a girl. Inbetween all this i manage to get a darksteel, a gold, and a ton of iron and tin. /wave's goodbye to lucun and warps out.*

Yeah, it seems Lucun will leave me alone if i bribe them with kind words, playfulness, and copper ore. :P

((Hmmm.)) *exits port jeuno to farm tabar beaks* uses flee as PLD cuz itz funny XD *kills a few tabar beaks & get hardly no drops even with TH ((/cry))* *spots next tabar beak, runs up behind it, SA -> Swift Blade -> whacks it a few times & kills it* ((/cheer)) gets bored of farming already & heads out to bed -.-;

Now recruiting RDMs and DRKs only. Emilyij boots Emilyia. WTF?!?

I was in a decent party in Valkurm, and then the announcement came. I started my logout at 10 after, but once the timer got down to 0, I just sat there, and then eventually lagged out. >.>

I didn't get a "GET YOUR AS[i][/i]S OFF OUR SERVER NOW" warning, so I assume that they didn't just pull the plug too soon or anything. I just hope I kept my progress today. I didn't get much XP, but I did spent a while building Summoning Magic skill while waiting for a party - 9 levels worth. >.>

I was in such a good party before this crap started happening. I'm on Torama's now >< and that is NO FUN AT ALL. But we were a happy go lucky crew so it wasn't all so bad. Our party set up was

PLD, RNG, DRK, RDM, RDM, WHM<----(me!!!!)

But first, let me have a digression. We're killing and killing and killing when suddenly our first party member lags out and dies (OH NO!!!!) and we wonder if she'll be back. It was a THF named Cat...something (oh god i'm drawing a blank...i'm so sorry!). So, she disappears after she is dead and we sit around for like 20 minutes waiting for her. It was then that the RNG came in.

We were killing like mad! Torama's were going down like weeds, WEEDS!!!! When the first message comes across. We keep hoping that the thf would log in and we could at least raise II her before maintenence. We got about 3k xp in the 45 minutes or so leading up to the maintenence. Right before we escape Onzozo, OSE spawns.....but we were too weak and there was no alliance around at all to help kill it.

It was a sad day for assault jerkin!

When all was said and done I got about 10,000 xp in the course of 3 hours of partying. I'm 2000 from 61! 5000 from a good death pad, and I can finally stop leveling whm for a while so i can max out smn and blm subs.

But I can't hit 61 because of stupid maintenence! I hate you SQUEEEEENIX!!!!

All I can say IS THANK GOD FOR PLAYONLINE ANNOUNCEMENTS!

I was going crazy wondering why I couldn't log on! After coming back from work I found out I wasn't the only one. All I can say is I admire Squinix's costumer service. Call me a sucka but I must say they are very VERY user friendly! ^_^
