51 Minutes, till 8 am tomorrow

And so it began.
Do you even play the game anymore? FFXIAH history says no

I think most people here dont actually play with same char from FFXIAH, so sales history was never a param.

It is actually kinda risky leaving a IRL contact outside of game (what would happen if you play same account from both FFXI and FFXIAH): somone weirdo in game could send you *** picks to your FFXIAH mail or someone you picked a fight in FFXIAH could go in game and try to get you banned or try to hurt you there.

In todays internet, being the most anonnimous possible is always the most secure stance.

So, no. Also, no, I do not "play" anymore. I do still log in for money though. (though that's all but lost it's luster, too)

There's only been about a year in the beginning where XI wasn't work. Even before making money.

Job applications. 3am wake up calls. Performance reviews. Shareholder meetings.

It's just AI slop made by some Indian guy, and prob consumed by them too (the forehead dot is a giveaway). The mass of growth on the internet is from India and similar nations over the past few years.

People have this idea that if a video has 400k views, Only fans is making bank, or Andrew Tate is very popular that it must be all western people consuming it. It's really not, everyone uses the same internet.

There are like 900million indians on the internet, not counting all the other similar developing nations.

This could also be early FFXI:
Linkshell applications
3am wake up call cuz Fafhogg is gonna pop purple anyway, but you better be there!
Performance reviews on your DPS.
Sackholder meetings. We've decided to raid the LS bank.

I don't need a break down, I know the answer it's one word. Capitalism.

We allowed monopolistic factory farms to run rampant maximizing profit and ignoring animal welfare and safety concerns. And now their *** ups are our problem to deal with. Fines are not a sufficient punishment.

It's a problem everywhere they run factory(esqe) farms where the animals have literally no room to breathe.

Which is a symptom of maximizing profit above all else.

Which is a human compulsion. So no where is really safe. In the first world, anyway. I'm sure places that hand raise / freeroam their two dozen chickens have no issues.

It's a problem for us because we have 100,000 chickens in 10,000 sqft hovels.

(we literally put all our eggs in one basket)

The point was the farms in general, one chicken catches avian flu, there's not a single one safe.

It just rips through like wildfire because of their (I refuse to say "living conditions") situation.

Cows. Pigs. Salmon. it's all the same.

Only you, lol. I personally don't assume other internet strangers are westerners unless they said so. Idk why would anyone do that anyways.

Which country doesn't have rampant capitalism in this world? Cuba? North Korea? What else?

In my region, eggs and food from caged animals are cheaper, eggs and food from caged free animals are more expensive.

So "chicken welfare" is still business anyways. If you feel sympathy towards your food, you can always choose to pay more money out of your pocket for it. That's your "feels good tax":D

I didn't pick fight nor break the law. Someone asked how does other country handle egg price problem and I simply asked which country do they mean.

I was asking for clarification, not picking fights.

The other post I offered price information on egg price discussion. How is this picking fights?

Also this this is an economy discussion, barely political.

If every economic discussion is political and banned in RT, then we can't discuss egg prices or anything about money.

Also I didn't start the egg price discussion, I only participate in it. Go fight those who started this discussion not me, lol.

You are totally wrong about me if you think "Break the law" is my favorite music of all time.

This is my favorite music of all time. The whole point of being a villain is to make more money.

You got the priority wrong man.
