I am not going to buy this game for the third time. Do they still have the rule that if you close your account and are inactive in 6 months that you have to rebuy the game and you lose all your progress?

I forget what the amount of time is, but yeah, after so long you just lose your character.  I remember I stopped for a while and tried to come back but my character was already deleted so I'm sadly done with the game (because I really do like it).

Too bad, because I really liked the game too. The biggest problem for me was that it was time consuming and it was hard to find partys at certain lvls They have probably solved those problems.

Yeah, getting to about the 40 mark is a horrible grind (but still fun for the most part) and then 50-70 is just painful.  I spent so long in the 55-65 area just because finding a party wasn't easy, finding the time to be in the party after finding the party wasn't easy, and then being a gimped healer always sucked.

My main was SMN and, man, levels 1-69 were just hard because every party wanted you to be a WHM and expected you to heal as well as one.  I was pretty awesome at being a gimped WHM and was great at keeping the party alive, but it was just rough.  Soloing was a lot of fun but one mistake meant a lot of lost time.

Every now and then I was lucky enough to find all SMN parties, SMN/BST parties, and parties that let me do tihngs beside heal and those were always a blast, but being a gimped healer just sucked (especially if there was no RDM or BRD handy).

My main were RDM and I had to heal in the partys all the time but I could also fight so it was nice. I left the game after I fell from lvl 60 several times with bad partys and trying to solo with RDM/NIN. I would probably have stayed if I got the last part of my RDM suite the head but it was hard to find other RDMs to do with or getting help. The game got better for me after 30 and even better at 40 when I got my refresh ability and everyone wanted me in partys and then I lost my attraction at 55-60 :(. Never tried SMN I always felt sorry for them because it seemed such hard class.
