Got a job at PC Land

Well, I got a job working as a computer tech recently for PC Land. Friday and Saturday were my first two days. Woohoo! Been working a lot on computer-related stuff. A friend of mine has developed a tool to consolidate a ton of useful technician tools, and I've been helping debug a minor issue with it. I've been messing around with a lot of Ubuntu Linux, getting printers shared and getting programs and settings the way I like them.

I also ordered a new (Linux-compatible) wireless card for my mom's computer so that she can try Ubuntu out. My friend also gave me an old computer of his to mess around with, which I also ordered a wireless card for.

Funny quote of the day:
Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them you'll be a mile away and have their shoes.

"The biggest drama in the history of FFXI ;D"

Wow. All I can do is laugh at this post. Since Killing Ifrit doesn't like to keep their posts around forever and the link will eventually break, I'll copy it. Straight from Bamma of Garuda, I present to you "The biggest drama in the history of FFXI ;D":

Alright guys, as promised.. here is something only a few people have witnessed. I dunno if you were looking forward to this Ish/Moorcat, but I did mention it to the both of ya so here it is. But first, let me tell you how it all started. Long post so pls forgive me.. ;D

So.. Lved as a monk/thf until around 60. Was in the LS omegaturks, along with sirus, moorcat, uber, and a lot of other people I really didn't know. The leader was some ninja, forgot his name because he quit a very very long time ago.. do you remember sirus? Anyways.. was good friends with moorcat, and soon shinomori wanted to start a static which included him, me, moorcat, sandkat, huma & parasite. At the time, 4k/hr EXP was what you considered godly. We managed close to 6k/hr. Our priorities was getting to lv75 because there were only 20 or so NA's at the most post lv70.

At around lv65 on my monk (when Cherryblossom was the first and only NA hnmls, btw one of the biggest joke NA hnmls' on the server of Garuda I must add), slowly one by one everyone in my static got invited. Riaky was the leader and I could not join because I was in beach's ls, a 75JP rdm who used to be in the same shell as riaky at one point but they hated each other for some unknown reason. Beach's side was, riaky is greedy and all he wants to do is make money.. so Beach quit the LS.

So.. reach lv70, got all pro gear for my monk.. farmed ochuidos + sniper rings, bought crosscounters from beach when they were only 1.1mil on our server. And man did I want to join Cherryblossom LOL. When the rest of my static was camping money hnm's + 3kings.. I was farming crawlers & crabs at Oztroja lol. But the money was awesoming considering the economy wasn't f'ed back then with all the gilbuyers and rmt niggers. But then there were other niggers who used fishbot, all of whom I don't associate with ingame to this day. But joining Cherryblossom would mean I would have to drop Beach's LP, I couldn't do that simply because he helped me get my mnk af legs + testimony to fight maat and sold me those awesome crosscounters ;D.

Anyways, we as a decent LS camped money hnm's once in a while.. and we went to Gustav because Bune was up. Cherryblossom claimed first and they had a full alliance + backup healers. The fight was about 30mins and at 10% or so.. everyone started getting raped one by one and at 1% frivan was the only rng up. An EES would have killed it (assuming that it landed) but there was still a 30second delay timer on it. So frivan died gracefully and we took bune for the kill.. no drop but shinomori then msgs me and says, "you're out of the static." We chat for a good 20mins, he was clearly pissed that we "stole" when their whole alliance wiped and bune was free to claim.

Basically the next couple of days, no static and the rest of the static members did stuff with Cherryblossom. I basically told him if I was kicked out of the static then I would quit the game. Then one day shinomori decided that we were going to exp together again. So w/e, back to the normal routine of hardcore exping to get to lv75 ;D.

But at the same time, we all decided to finish skymissions to get to sky access. Very few select NA's had sky access at this time. It was pretty tough for us considering our PT setup was mnk, drk, drg, nin, whm, brd.. we weren't even lv75 yet and a lot of us were still newbie NA's. We got up to the chapter AA in quicksands, and then this nigger blm by the name of Damian.. who btw has one of highest records of examining me the most ingame said he needed help getting past this part. So being a leech, he himself decided he was going to come with us because he was in Cherryblossom and my static couldn't deny him.

So we get to the BC, kill the AA with a few deaths. The fight was pretty hard and then we were all like fuck, we gotta do it again for damian. So off we go, we substitute damian for parasite and shinomori dies early in the second fight. Moorcat casts Raise 2 on him and he replies, "Raise TREE ONRY" and denies the raise2. Were like WTF, were in a fucking BC right now and moorcat already wasted 150mp casting raise2 on you. "I don't care, I'm not losing anymore exp because I waste shihei exping for you guys." -.-

So guess what, huma had to tank the AA, he died a total of 4 times during the fight, received 3 f'ing raise 1's and a raise 2. We basically killed the BC without a main tank and a nearly full wipe. So after we all get kicked out, Huma was the first one raised and he says, "F this bull**** shinomori" and warps to logout. Moorcat didn't want to raise shinomori after f'ing us all over.. so he decided to ask the LS and based his decision on their opinion. And yup, everyone warped except shinomori because moorcat decided not to give him a raise3. Shinomori said in PT chat, fine.. this static is done. He hp's and seeks for an exp PT. That was the last day I saw him.

Later in the weeks ahead, Cherryblossom gets pull on Aspiniggerlone and dalamatica drops, Sevenseas won the lot but his job was a blm and there were rdms + smners in that alliance. Opeth thought the LS was about working to make the LS stronger as a whole and not for personal benefits, so he decided to quit and more than half the LS quit along with him. Opeth then created a new NA hnmls, the one and onry visvires.. which I was invited to the very next day ;D. So Opeth's side of the story was, those who stayed with Cherryblossom were greedy because they agreed with Riaky's decision to let Sevenseas lot and win the dalmatica. And the richest NA's were obviously in that LS.

But Visvires’ goal was to be the first NA hnmls to defeat Kirin. Now info at this time was scarce and we had to figure a lot of the stuff on our own in sky. So while Cherryblossom was still camping money hnm’s, we were laughing because after about a month’s hard work, we finally defeated Kirin. Moorcat, Interslayer & Leyla were the first three NA whm’s to obtain a Noble’s tunic on Garuda. And Sandkat was the first NA to obtain an osode, which dropped after about 5 kirin deaths..-.-

So after word got out that we had defeated Kirin and started busting out some priceless eq which Cherryblossom couldn't obtain with any amount of gil, they started doing sky missions. As they progressed onto the 4 gods, they couldn't defeat byakko & seiryu for a while, and suzaku was pretty tough for them. So they decided to farm Genbu as their main source of gil + get a couple abjs for themselves. But eventually, they defeated Kirin after a couple months with lots and lots of recruiting and deaths along the way ;D.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Now.. to the main point, at this time I met tree Canadians. Their names were Setheron, Darkwind & Narusegawa. They were lv 60 brd, nin, drk. I camped Amemet with them all the time because that's all they ever did and visvires wasn't a money LS, we had a bank fund which all gil drops would go to. So this was my way of making money. I tanked amemet on my mnk/nin because Darkwind's nin was pretty useless so he basically leeched off us all the time. Setheron's goal was to earn 2.3mil to buy a vermy cloak which he accomplished in about 2weeks of camping amemet 3-4 times a day. Anyways..

They introduced me to the voice chat program ventrilo, which took me about 2weeks to actually force myself to download and install onto my computer. I then met this guy named Anakki who hangs with them in their vent channel. And for anyone who knows how Anakki talks.. he has the most annoying voice on the mic. Anyways they were all good friends, setheron darkwind & naru were irl friends and Anakki is some asian.

Now visvires wanted to start camping the kings more often, and fafnir was tough because our blm's weren't decked out and we had zero smners. Opeth told us, "we need smners, we need smners." So I told Opeth that Naru had a lv60 smner and we invited him. Opeth told Naru to start lving it instead of camping amemet with those nigs Setheron & Darkwind. Once Naru joined, of course Darkwind wanted to join, but Opeth hated Darkwind's guts. So I told Darkwind if you want to join, get lv70+ on your nin and then ask Opeth. After he obtained lv 70, he asked opeth if he could join and Opeth replied, "niggano." LOL. Darkwind was heartbroken, so he literally followed Opeth everywhere he went ingame whenever he was online. Finally Opeth decided, fine.. he can join.

So then months and months go by.. Opeth & Ainsley joined our vent.. our LS is becoming more and more pro.. Opeth and I lv our rdm & rng together.. Opeth obtains defending ring on our first KB which was a KB that was unclaimed. Stelvia, insane & illusion were there but they weren't engaging it for some reason. So right as Stelvia was about to claim it, Opeth all of a sudden became pro, puts on his nike shoes, turns into a nig and starts runnin for his life, ran in there & provoked KB. All the JP ls' were like, wth. Anyways first NA hnmls to kill KB. Back then the JP ls' were illusion, insane & stelvia. So a total of 5 hnmls' on our server, but cherryblossom didn't really count. Obsidiann lost lot and Ender was only in our LS for 2 weeks, btw he got koenig hands and body in those 2 weeks so no way in hell was he going to get priority to lot. Windyfeather also lotted, which was higher than Opeth.. as a joke, but lucky for Opeth he passed before the items were distributed or everyone had passed on the ring.

And then.. to my knowledge.. Leyla quit the LS because of Opeth's so-called "double-standard" with Ainsley and favoritism. What happened was, we were camping water in sky.. and Leyla came up to sky wanted to be in main PT, because usually when we fight gods and kirin, moorcat & leyla is in the main tank PT. We already had moorcat + ainsley in the main PT, so someone (I forgot who) in our alliance in another PT.. invites Leyla several times but Leyla declines all of them. This was only water so having Leyla in the main PT was not mandatory. So he logs off that day and the next day when we are camp fafnir, Leyla tells us he is quiting the LS. I forgot what his explaination was, either he wasn't having anymore fun or he had RL to deal with.

So one by one people started quitting VV, and the LS is slowly deteriorating.. then I basically figured this isn't gonna work out. So I said "Things will never be the same in visvires without Leyla.. I tired my hardest to keep the LS alive but it isn't going to work.. and I hate to see the LS end like this but things don't last forever. It was awesome being part of such a successful LS," and basically thanked everyone for being a part of it. Then dropped the pearl. Opeth was pretty inactive at the time so when he came back and saw the big mess ahead of him, he just didn't want to be a leader anymore, so the LS was finally disbanded. The bank still had around 30mil or so, he split it among the people who deserved it the most, Naru & Parasite got like 4mil each because they never got a dalmatica or adaman hauberk.

A couple weeks later, Opeth joins Stelvia.. and obtains his final koenig piece to make his full set. I join about a month later.. updates and updates / months and months ahead, we kill the tiamat, jormunasdf & vrtra. I receive my herald's gaiters and blood body. Soon later Darkwind, naru, ruhi, & sinestra join. I staticed with Ruhi on my rdm when he was still in EDI and eventually hit 75 on my rdm. Then invited him into Stelvia. So while all this was going on, other NA sky hnmls' were constantly killing kirin.

Around this time mpkcriminalmpk was the best NA hnmls. Mainly NA and Darkwind wasn't having anymore fun in Stelvia because most of the people in our vent were in this LS. By this time, uber, kyubi, jagua, thecok, later on sevenseas and a bunch of other people was in it. Soon after, Naru quit Stelvia and joined mpk also. But despite being in different LS', I always did shit with them. BC's, boroka (which I made a load of money from having monopoly on it for about 3months straight.. do the math, drop rate was almost every kill and usually split between 5ppl), ENM's, exping, crafting, w/e. Something a lot of us didn't do because of being in rival LS'.

So....

I took a break from ffxi in the beginning of May. Maybe just a couple hrs a week, logged in for boroka because it was the best moneymaker in the game. In june I hardly logged in at all. Now when I logged in on the first week of July, well what do you know, I found all my shit gone. All my Rng, Rdm & Mnk gear gone. Well worth over 200mil along with herald's gaiters which is priceless on any server. Not to mention Hansu offered 100mil for a pair but was never able to find a seller. And some extremely rare eq like 2 communion earrings, chasuble +1, mahatma pigaches, 2 behemoth ring +1's, 2 sniper +1's and so on.. The same day I found all my shit gone was the day I was going to log in to auction off all my items in hopes to sell the gil for RL money.

Basically I entrusted someone with my account, but it wasn't that person who took all my items. But because of this person, I got all my shit jacked from me. For about a month in a half, I had no idea who it was. At first I suspected it was Darkwind & Naru. But I had doubts cuz how the fuck can it be them? I've known them for like 1 1/2 years and I should be able to trust them more than anyone else ingame. But Darkwind being the stupid dumb f'up he always was gave me that suspision.

For instance, out of the many times I IMed him through aim.. he would always respond with a "?" When I IMed him this time, he responded with a "hi." Being the friend he should be because I considered him one, when I told him all my shit was gone.. he could have caredless to ask how it happened. His simple reply was ";-;." If he ever told me his shit was gone, I'd probably ask him a ton of questions.. he didn't have a word to say. So after about a 15minute convo, he said he had absolutely nothing to do with it and that this was his first time hearing about it.

Even more stupidly, when the real Setheron came back to play FFXI.. Darkwind gave Setheron my elite beret +1 to sell on the ah for gil to get him back started. And the ringer was when Darkwind sold my Desert Rope, Dune Bracers & Desert Stone on the ah.. all of which were Galka RSE's.. all in the same month in July. Now for anyone who is smart, when you do BC to farm RSE pieces, and do it 6 times.. you are guaranteed at least 6 pieces of RSE eq if you win all 6 times. I guess Darkwind did each of these BC's and only one once because he sucks ass and they all happened to be Galka pieces, ROFL.

At this point I thought to myself, what a f'ing nigger. Blatantly lied to me when I confronted him about it. I didn't even bother to ask Setheron or Naru about it. It's been a month & a half, I'm sure they knew about it.. how many chances did they have to tell me in that time frame and didn't have the balls to say so? Anyways I couldn't f'ing believe it. I've known them for how long, done how much shit with them ingame, and they pull of some shit like this on me and think they are going to get away with it? Nope.. sorry I'm too pro.

Well back a couple months when that whore we all know Mango was still around. She was going to meet with Darkwind & Naru in LasVegas.. That's what she said, but it never happened. Anyways, I had Darkwind's address because he tried linking it to all the way to Vegas through mapquest to see how long the drive would be. I also had his home phone and cell phone number. I almost forgot I had all this info but when I remembered, damn it was quite awesome to say the least.

Anyways me and a couple friends decided to give Darkwind (his real name is Gabe by the way.. but I like to call him Gabby) a call, so first we dialed his cell. My friend was talking to him on the phone and the convo went something a little like this..
"Hey is this gabe."
"Yeah."
"That fucking fag Darkwind."
"Uh, who is this."
"I'ma f your mom real hard bro."
"Uh, who is this."
"Dude, who do you think you are?"
"Uh, who is this."
Gabes Mom: "Gabe who is that on the phone?"
"Hey is that your mother? Put her on the phone."
"No."
"Yeah I just heard your mother man, put her on the f'ing phone."
"Sorry you are hearing things."
"Dude I'm not f'ing stupid, get your f'ing mother on the phone."
"Uh, who is this."

The convo lasted a good 10minutes, and eventually Gabe hung up on us. Basically he was shitting his pants and he was lost for words that he kept repeating "Uh, who is this." Next we call his home phone.

"Where do you live bro?"
"Uh, why do you want to know, who is this.. how'd you get my number?"
"You gonna tell me or do you want me to tell you?"
"Uh, ok tell me. (thinking he doesn't know)"
"-Says the address-"
~~Silence~~

Sorry this happened a month ago so I don't remember the whole conversation verbatim but you guys get the jist of it. And then the rest of the convo you could pretty much imagine he was struggling to say anything.

So anyways.. just when I was about to forgive and forget about all this shit. I get Naru's account info because I'm just pro like that. Log in and go to his mog house. There I see on his f'ing mannequin my Chasuble +1 and mahatma gear.. along with my communion earrings, morion+1, -1 blood cursed gear, snow rings, aqua rings. All ready to be worn on his rdm which he was lving and at the time around lv60. Un-f'ing believeable. I didn't see any rng gear so I'm guessing Naru took my rdm gear, Darkwind my rng gear and they split my mnk gear along with everything else. I couldn't f'ing believe it.

These guys.. were probably the last people I should have suspected pulling off some s*** like this. And to think they were going to get away with it. Sorry, but you guys aren't pro enough to get away with something like this.. And it's more unbelieveable that Naru went along with Darkwind awesome idea. Even though they may be RL friends, I don't understand why he is buttbuddies with Gabe. Naru didn't even want to join mpk and quit Stelvia, but you know why he did?.. because of Gabe. And again he went along with Gabe's brilliant suggestion. I guess Darkwind giving Naru hush money was pretty damn appealing. Darkwind is the dumbest fag I know. But I must say Naru is pretty damn stupid too.. to do w/e Gabe tells him to do. Let me just say one thing to Naru, if you should be pissed at anyone.. it should be your best friend Gabe. The irony of it all is that they are going into college this year as freshmen and they are roommates.

So guess what happened?

This..






Eventually got my gaiters back and a lot of my eq back.. but when s*** like this happens, you aren't guaranteed all your stuff back. And the rest of Naru's gear, well I decided to give that out to many of my close friends ingame because I certainly have no use for the gil. Not to mention he had alky bracelets, which is worth 20mil now?.. and never sells on the ah, gave that away too haha.

Btw.. I don't care if its your RL friend, never give out your account info to anyone. That's why I can honestly say Dihtyrant.. that you were not hacked, but rathered cheated by entrusting your account info to others.

And that's all folks.. the biggest drama in the history of FFXI. I hope you enjoyed ;D
