I can help u rank up, I've been playing w/ a lot of VGC members lately and helping them get armor as well as ranking up. I know ur MH3 name is Kenology, I remember u telling me. My name is KLASH. 

I see why guys pick female characters in MH3. LOL!

The issue is that I was going to, but didn't want to due to any stat decreases/ annoying female grunting sounds to ruin the gameplay.

I can see the attraction-perhaps just having a low-level file is the way to go ;)

Also, how can that armour be practical? It's like Fran's armour in FF12- more on aesthetic design than actual protection.

Female characters are weaker than guys? I never heard of that.

In real life, yes. In this game, no. It was my worry at the start, see, so wanted to get the right foot first etc., so went for the burly type. 

What, like some sort of sex-change button? It would be pretty funky seeing the men in girls armour...

...wait, what am I thinking? That photo is REALLY starting to freak me out, I'l be having trippy dreams tonight...

I think you're already on my friends list actually, I'll check.  Would love to quest.  I think I'm HR 32.  Gonna boot up the game and see for sure.  I missed a week of grad school so I've been working hard to catch up and I finally did - time to kick back for a lil' bit and play!

@Conegamer - will add you.

Cool- you're Kenology, right? I'll see you in the hunt hopefully sometime soon!

Yup!  Wha's your ID #?

I don't have it on me right now (brother is using the TV right now), but when I get a chance I'll let you know. 

1 more thing- are you in the Americas or Europe? (I haven't really been keeping track of the entire thread)
