I've logged on to the game maybe 6 times in the last three months. I miss it, but I seem to be on when few others are, and that detracts from the fun of playing. I have a lot of people who are all CHOCO COME TO XIV and so I've looked into that a little bit, but not too hardcore as my craptop is the only means of playing it and doubt it'll handle it well.
But I do miss you guys terribly and hope things are going well in the land of Vana'diel.
My internet connection won't handle the ps2 (but it will the xbox, but I don't have Aby expansions on the xbox or my laptop which probably couldn't handle the lag anyway). Who knows, maybe I will reactivate again and jump on soon if for no reason other than to get away from the day to day BS.
<3 ya'll

/comfort choco, how things get better for you, we miss you lots

Hey Choco,
Miss seeing you online. Glad you are doing well. everyone is having hard times. I hope you stay well and come back soon.

Hello Miss Choco, I too have been and will remain on extended hiatus from FFXI. Miss the folks but not really missing the content as it seems to have not been improved much in almost a year now. Hope the day to day gets better for you and you can always message me on Facebook if you need someone to vent to.
