My First Love

Jeuno-bound, back when AH weren't connected yet.

I found this in a forgotten album.  I like how I tried to blur out my name.  I must have totally forgotten about /names at the time.  I can totally read what it says.  I guess I prefer anonymity because I don't want people making trouble to me.  Same reason for my first post, calling everybody by their characters' first initial, rather than their full names.  I guess it's because we were the only ones with these names even across servers, though I've found out later that there was a person with the same name as mine on one other server.  I was actually asked by another player if I was the same R.  Nice to know I was more liked as someone else, somewhere else.  Others have since created the same name as M and I think B's name is just popular in general.

Anyway, why is this post called "My First Love?"  My first love was being a paladin.  Yes, PLD was my first love in FFXI.  I wanted to be the one that the mob hit.  I wanted to be the one to die (though my friends for some reason never let me die).  They always died first. It's embarrassing seeing the stats of how few times I've K.O.'d.  My PLD is currently level 90-ish.  It might be 91, but the fact that I don't know should be an indication that I don't care about this job anymore.  Given how crappy my equipment was before, there is just no way for me to build both an Aegis and an Ochain, so I gave up on the job.  B seems to have taken a liking to PLD, though we never had need for a PLD tank anymore.  We have given what small amount of Iron Plates we've gotten to him.
