Dude really said "I won't edit the wiki because a make believe basement-dwelling computer nerd across the country would harass me while im pressing f5 constantly on a website for a 20+ yr old video game while eating doritos in my 12x12 closet".

LOL

Man, yall gotta get off the internet once every 8 hours and just breathe some real air for a change. It's affecting your mental health.

They warned us 25 years ago to get a life.



It's impossible to ignore this every single day of your life unless you have a mental deficiency.

How is that related exactly?

If i edited the wiki with my shiny new BippityBop account, no one would have known it was me if I never said “i made an account named BippityBop”. Theres no character validation required as far as I know.

And even if there is, he has a bunch of throwaway accounts that are going to get LM-17ed in a month.

Can't make a sock account for it, because then you can never say "I was right, i posted it here" and claim credit for it. And the moment you're wrong and decides to edit the page 15 times, there would be a history of it visible to all (unlike FFXIAH.com where you can edit your message a dozen times before the masses see how incorrect you were).

only in that I understand the paranoia, because of how this playerbase is. more recently, if nalfey is to be believed, was the result of someone with rustled jimmies reporting him.
I thought the prevailing consensus is that he got pinched for talking about his stuff in game. Multiple active players have githubs that distribute actual shady addons with account named close to / identical to their char name. SE didnt go “github Nalfey is nalfey on asura, they have the same name, ban em”. If they would do that kind of detective work, they could easily do very simple things to curb RMT and make their lives a bit more difficult.


Also what paranoia?? He burns more accounts a month doing his low tier RMT botting than your linkshell has active players. This isnt someone with a 10++ year old character theyre trying to protect.

Last time I tried to register on BG my very anonymised email address was "not accepted".

It looked distinctly like personal email addresses were required, which made me wonder why an ffxi wiki site would require its users to use personal email addresses to sign up.

I still don't have an account on Bg because of the email validation.

If you really want to sign-up, pop over in the BG discord and ask. They can approve manually.

ragns has to approve a lot of them manually because bg, much to people's surprise, gets a lot of spam/ddos traffic.
a variation of this message gets repeated every other month when someone asks why they couldn't make an account.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯


Unless that signup message is *** and the validation email never arrives, which I'll never know because I dont have access to totallyrealemail@hotmail.com (I'm pretty sure it exists though), seems like I had no problems registering with one of the most popular free email providers out there.

Hotmail is free yes, but it's not considered one of the pump and dump temp emails that don't require an account to use. I'm sure Ragns mean the latter.

Some people have had issues with personal domains too, but again, ragns can and will take care of it if you give him a heads up. It's really not that deep.

That just means you filled out the form correctly. It's not a bug.

Starts next weekend, doubt they run "spend sparks" again, but if they do, this is your heads up to not *** up.

If you wake up today and buy your shields and they do start with spend sparks, you're *** out of the title again.

It's also your heads up to remember you have to actually confirm your points at the end. Don't say no one told you (again)

Less days. Easier objectives. That's slightly less worse.
Less days to earn 700 points, you may consider to be worse, that's true, subjectively. Objectively, it's not.

Exemplar bonus campaign for the win.

(And I get to skip it, that's awesome possum. They didn't add relic+3 slip, it's AF+3 again)

Seriously. Do every task. Register with the moogle at max points.

ON The last day (march 30th) BEFORE the acquisition period ends.

They could of tweaked the Exemplar Point bonus campaign. Instead of a overall 500k max bonus Exemplar points throughout the campaign, make the Max Bonus reset daily.

5 million free exemplar is a bit much.

Would be welcome, sure. Doesn't make sense though.

You get people complaining I can't play on tuesday so I lost 500k exemplar points that's not fair

500k total isn't good (it's 1/4 of a level at 40+) but it's "good enough"

I read that you should register points daily. Is that allowed to keep the running total or have to only register once at the very end.

I get that and understand it. It's just that the window is short for just 5/10 days.

Just the once to confirm your tie for 1st with the 30 other title seekers.

This is way, way better. AF+3 5/5 sets are substantially more expensive than relic, so I much prefer an AF set being the reward here. Yay.
