I would have been at that level with my Bard by now if it wernt for a certain indavidual making me wait for him... (been about 4 days now).
in that time I have managed to level a couple of Melee Classes :\
Yesterday I got to 12,799 exp on level 55 and was like 'sweet! one more until level up,' but then the next battle came and nothing.
Turned out I forgot to talk to Maat after we fought the NMs so my cap didn't raise. :( Doh! At least it allowed Eleni to catch up to me.
Level 57!
No pantaloons though. :(
Edit: Scratch that, just got my spiffy disco pantaloons. ^_^
I got 75 Corsair >_>

Hi guys *^^
Got Alle's SAM to 51. Yay, second job that far. And quite naturally, all her gear has cost me more than BLM. I spoil her. >_>
Also did 5-1 with her, a THF, RDM, and BRD. That was... Interesting.
got my Bard up to Qufim and bought a +1 Maple Harp.
Made it to lvl 20 with my BLM and got a Chocobo and Chocobo Egg! Woot!
Got AF crown! Now I am King of all Tarus!
All right! No more robot taru!Quote:

I've decided to take a long and possibly permanent break from FFXI. After taking a break for about 2 weeks, I tried the little 2 dollar WoW trial. It's not so much that WoWs the better game (though in my opinion it probably is), but really the fact that WoW allowed me to look at FFXI without the love goggles. I finally admitted to myself that the game just doesn't reward you much for what you put in. Additionally, SE is lazy about pretty much everything. They don't listen to the complaints of the playerbase, they let RMT run rampant, they let people cheat, they don't allow windowed mode and say it's because it will allow all of the above things they don't fix.
In WoW you can play windowed. Hell, you can even play with mods. Stuff like TParty and Bloodpace would be 100% legal in WoW. At the same time, if someone cheats (flee hack, bot, etc.) they get banned. RMT don't own the economy and you don't have to save up forever to get something. You can wear decent gear and not be a gimp. You can wear different looking gear than other people of your job at your level and not be gimp.
Instead of logging in for 3 hours of LFP every day on DRG just to log out without making progress, I can log into WoW for only 30 minutes and make 10x the progress and feel good about it and then return to real life.
FFXI offers you almost nothing if you can't devote 2-3 hour time blocks to it. Am I supposed to really feel all that accomplished that I spent over a year doing sky to get a full set of god gear? It's good, but it's only a few notches better than any other gear. So what if my e-cock is bigger and I can brag more about my gear? It just means that I sold my soul to a LS that got it for me after an unhealthy amount of time. I'd rather put a reasonable amount of time in and get rewards that are even more worth the effort (i.e. the stats are actually a notable improvement).
People will say the playerbase is more immature in WoW and they are probably correct. However, there are also immature asshats in FFXI. At least I'm not forced to PT with them in WoW. My option in FFXI if I get a PT with a jackass is to either deal with him, or go LFP in Jeuno for another ridiculous amount of time.
I'll probably come back after an extended break in WoW, but maybe not. Some do, but most don't. You always get the handful that come back from playing for 3 months and capping a single character just to say how easy WoW was. Well, it's probably easy coming from FFXI where you played 8+ hours a day. If you spent that much time in WoW, sure you'd get everything fast on one toon.
I'd prefer to go slow and enjoy myself while still having time to spend doing other things. I'd like to be able to log in for only one hour and actually feel like I've accomplished something and had FUN. There's very little to do in FFXI for fun in one hour. I started scheduling life around FFXI. I'd rather schedule a game into my life than feel the need to adjust my life for the game.
