Spooks, you the man!

Since FFXI is a MMORPG, you get to met all kinds of people in the game. Living, breathing people who come from different parts of the world. This is the main reason I play the game, to get to meet new people that is. Be it English, Japanese, European, or plain ole "I don't understand." Last night, I was partying it up in the dunes with Katsumoto.
Our setup was 3 BLM, 1 NIN, 1 THF, and one funny WAR.
Thats him ladies and gentlemen. Spooks. He most def. made my night. He made me laugh so hard that it didn't matter I only gained 2 levels all night with myself as a Power Level. I'm not making fun of this kid, oh no. Exactly opposite, I respect his idealism... since he's new to the game.
Spooks died prob. around 4-5 times last night. With me PL'n, he still managed to die. He voked once when he was at like 10 HP which made me laugh so hard. I must say though, he always voked for others and was willing to die at a whim. He'd make a great PLD. But, Spooks also had a great way with words.

lolSpooks. So Aricelia came to give him a pearl after our party disbanded. When Ari came into the mix, Katsumoto start to die left and right.
Ari decided to bring a friend, Tremor Ram. Which, as show in this picture, completely blocked myself (Hyourin) from seeing Katsumoto dying. lolAri.
This wasn't the only time Katsumoto died. He proceeded to die a few more times before the night ended.
Cutearu.
Today, I leveled Chubbie some more to a stone's throw to level 15. Bermont (if you can see him in the center) joined me. We grabbed a few levels before we both had to take off.

From yesterday's and today's partying and PL'n experience I must say that I feel kinda bad for PL'n myself thru the dunes. Why?

1) When I'm PL'n, the newbies aren't learning. So, I'm just causing a viel of false hope. Even veterans are acting stupid when I'm PL'n. "Why the fck you double pulll? Didn't I say I needed MP? Why you tanking naked?"

2) Chubbie's BLM magic points are lolBLM. My Enfeebling is at like 2. My Dark is at 1. w00t. I gotta skill up later with myself.

3) You realize that this is training bad tanks. I won't get into this but, seems if I'm PL'n, they're not paying attention no more.

Still, these past few days playing with Chubbie have been laughtastic. Makes me feel young again and love FFXI for all its ups and downs.
