Joontae Interview: He may be smelly and constantly mumbling about his Wyvern, but gosh darn it Joonate is teh coolest. Who will be next?...... |
Q: How long have you been playing the Final Fantasy series? Joontae: Well, like a lot of other people, FF7 was the thing that really got me in to the series. I think I picked that game up about 6 years ago. Since then I've enjoyed playing FF1, and then 6-11. Q: When you joined LS Again how many members did it have? Joontae: To be honest, I have no idea. It wasn't small, but it wasn't too big either. Q: What was the hardest thing you ever did IG? Joontae: Leveled DRG, probably. I know I sound like a martyr, but there's a good amount of truth in that answer. Q: Best drop you ever got? Joontae: I got this cocaine-coated lemon drop once. I don't remember what happened after I ate it, but I remember it felt good. Q: Stupidest thing or most N0obish thing you ever did? Joontae: One time, I hooked up with this Mithra whore in Qufim Island. Well, one thing led to another, and soon we were going at it. However, we happened to get caught in a thunderstorm. Being the n00b I was, I ignored these conditions. Suddenly, lightning struck us. The massive voltage caused the Mithra and I to become stuck to one another, thus trapping me inside her. We were unable to move, and it seemed like about a million people came up and snickered at us before we finally recovered mobility and escaped from each other's suffocating embrace about 3 days later. Q:Why did you pick the DRG job? Joontae: Well, pretty much every single character that's used a spear/had DRG-like qualities in the FF's I've played has been my favorite character, particularly Cid and Mog, so it seemed like the natural job for me to choose in XI. Q: Has picking DRG made it harder to get XP parties? Joontae: Mos def. I suppose I can't compare it to other jobs, since DRG is basically the only job I've taken past 30, but the lack of invites from about 45+ is enough to kill a man. Q: What's the worst thing you have ever shouted in a city about someone? Joontae: I usually end up degrading myself when I shout in cities. Once in a drunken stupor, I revealed to Bastok that I actually have a third testicle under my left armpit. That was not good. Q: Ever had a GM called on you? Joontae: No. Whenever anybody starts hatin' on me and my style, I can just Super Jump the hate away. Q: Do you think the game has lost fun/excitement? Joontae: I hate to say it, but yes. Some people might say to me, "Well, maybe YOU'VE just become less fun and exciting." I'm sorry, but I sincerely doubt this. I am and will always be the most fun and exciting person in the history of NASCAR. Q: So as of right now, do you think you will be quitting for good, or just aking a break? Joontae: :/ There's no way I can speak definitively one way or the other right now. Whatever happens happens. Q: Any advice for a new DRG? Joontae: Umm, keep your wyvern alive...always use Double Thrust in PTs...Use your jumps right after your WS...love your job. Q: Any game advice in general? Joontae: Be courteous to everyone...and smart with your money. And don't get persuaded by a pretty Mithra face. Q: Hey, remember that time you were drunk and you and those 2 Taru females got it on? What was that like? Joontae: Which incident are you referring to? Regardless, any time you get a chance to hit up a Taru, don't miss out. Q: How did you make your gil? Crafting/mining/farming...? Joontae: I suppose I can let you guys in on my secret... I actually mint my own gil in a hidden portion of Palborough. If you don't have a Gil Mint, mining and fishing and farming are decent money-making methods as well. Q: Any favorite memories from the game or LS? Joontae: Getting to know Lunah: After we had little LS gatherings at night (can't remember what for), everybody would log except for me and Lunah, leaving us in a party. Not wanting to log, but not wanting to be bored, we started doing stuff together and getting to know each other. One time we got left in a party, and she says, "Why do I always get stuck with you?" And after she asked that amazingly friendly question, I realized I had found a true friend. :P Getting my first impressions of Shay and Andrez: When I was like a lvl24 THF (my first job), I decided I wanted to get rank4. So I went along with the LS for a rank4 excursion. To keep a long story short, I caused some problems and probably got a few people killed. I felt like a total goof. Everybody was hatin on me, except for Shay and Andrez who spoke up for me and my n00bishness. And from that point on, I had two people to look up to in the LS. Now, they're my friends. Touching story, eh? Q: What does Joonfactor mean? Joontae: I won't lie, there's no real meaning behind the "factor" suffix. It just sounds hella tight. Q: Anything else you would like to say? Joontae: Thanks to the whole dang LS for being tight. And thanks to Junker for being like a big, blue blowup doll. "I'm not quite, and I'm not quite black, you can call me whack, like my lyrical attack..." |
