Looking for a new linkshell~Casual with events/activities Follow

Hello, I'm looking for a new linkshell. I have an ideal picture of what qualities and traits I am looking for in a linkshell, but I'll put a list of them later in this post. I will clarify by saying it does not have to be a current linkshell either. If someone feels like creating a new casual linkshell that could be fun[if it goes this route maybe we can /tell on what to name it and what crest and colors]! Meeting new players and veterans alike is always fun.

Ideal LS traits whether new or out there somewhere in Karnak:
(I have a lot so sorry for the long list.)

1. Drama free.
2. Happy to have the company of new and veteran players alike.
3. Casual with a family feeling atmosphere.
4. Has events/activities scheduled or frequent enough that keeps the LS fun and not stale. (I like LSs that have plans for a quest day, NM hunt, dungeon try, exploring, or something unique they've thought up. Any event that members can come and have fun and not be stressed out over a game.)

5. Willing to try new methods. (What I mean is if people have new ideas, members don't shun them and say just do it how it works and not even letting them try first. That kind of elitist thinking.)

6. Doesn't require voice chat functions. (I know people enjoy voice chat features and I don't have anything against players who use them, but I am one who just likes to type. A few LSs I have tried I told them it's how I played in FFXI and I wasn't left out, but for some reason some linkshells don't allow for people to play this way and so I haven't been able to experience all FFXIV has to offer for this reason. )

7. Tries to group up when doing parties for leves/exp. (It's just a game so let's party as much as we can! It's always better to have comrades to back you up on tougher mobs!)

8. Interacts with old and new members. (I hate to see lots of members online, but they are not chatting or have levels around each other and aren't playing together. I don't mean constant interaction because everyone likes their alone time to craft, gather, or do whatever, but I hope you understand what I mean by this point. Don't let members feel left out basically if they are asking a question or wanting to team up for something. Also, I hate to see new players join a LS and never feel like part of the group because the first people in the LS always hang out with each other. Same thing the other way I hate to see old members forgotten because of new players getting all the attention. Just include everyone new and old into discussions and events as much as possible!)

9. Isn't dead silent. (A few LSs I've been in NEVER talk with each other. I understand you can't talk 24/7, but if most of the time players aren't connecting, players may feel turned off by an unresponsive linkshell.)

10. Willing to answer questions and help low and high level players alike.
11. Has kind members.

That's my picture of an ideal LS. If anyone has similar views on a casual LS post here with your name and we can /tell in game on maybe creating a new casual LS because I think that would be an easier way to go. However, if an existing LS has most of my points included I will join in a heartbeat!

Summary: (Here to emphasize main points.)
Looking for a casual LS that has a family feeling to it, interacts with all members, has events high levels and low levels can do, doesn't require voice chat functions, happy to help all, willingness to try all content, drama free, groups up with members when able, and wants to enjoy FFXIV!

For whatever reason, I could not bold the bottom main points. When I tried, the scroll bar kept going up preventing me from highlighting just the one part to bold. Sorry for the inconsistency.

Hi.it's a pleasure to meet someone like you because everything you said is exactly what i think. My english might sound a bit weird, because it is not my first language. I had played the game for 2 months when it first came out, and i quit because i wasn't happy with many aspects. I just got back and i played 2 hrs yesturday. I didn't have the time to really see the changes, but i got a good feeling about it.

Anyway, look for me in the game, because whatever LS you find or create, i wish to be part of it. I played FF11 for many years, and i just wish to start fresh in FF14. I am devoted and polite. I am allergic to drama.

My name in game is Gei Sha.

I hope to talk to you soon. ^^

Aaah, thanks friend. But since i didn't really start for long, i made a new character and i went on Besaid. I wanted to try a Role-Playing server. I'm curious about the whole concept.

I just hope to meet people like you over there, because you really represent the type of folks i want to tag along with. I hope you get that great LS you want.

Peace ^^

Some additional potentially helpful info:

I am an EST player, usually playing somewhere around 6PM-10 or 11 PM on weekdays. Schedule varies depending on what work needs to be done, so some days I am not on at all. On weekends anytime from 9AM-11PM I could be on, just depends if anything else is planned for the day.

Hence why I am searching for a casual LS with those points I listed above that is okay with me being logged on and off at different times each day.

Side note: My brother and one friend both would accompany me to whatever new or old LS, so a trio would be joining if there is a LS out there that matches my points. :D I play the most out of the three however.

I have found a home! A new LS called Stroke of Luck which displays the above goals(in my original post) has been created. To outline them again:

1. No drama.
2. We don't use voice chat, so a LS for people who communicate through typing.
3. Invites all levels new to veteran.
4. Casual, but we will try all FFXIV has to offer if we can.
5. We are social.
6. Members are very friendly and helpful!

Contact Torrey Canyon or Weffrey Pencroff if you agree with the original post and this outline and wish to join. Also, post here your character's name so I can add you to my friend's list to see when you are online to receive the LS!

Added LS information:
Everyone is seen as equals so do not think of Torrey or other leaders as the mega-bosses! We are all friendly people looking for fun and adventure in Eorzea.

Any questions about Stroke of Luck /tell Torrey Canyon or Weffrey Pencroff, or post them here.

Claramindie Biddlebee here. Have recently returned to FFXIV to check out new content. Being a member of a linkshell such as yours would definitely enhance the experience. I am on EST and, when I am into the game (i.e., not bored or frustrated)I play most nights...sometimes quite late (much to my despair when the 6am alarm goes off). I will try to find you in-game and look for a hook-up. Thanks...btw, I actually have a linkshell (I am the only member) called "Oldfarts".

Hello Weffrey! This is Skutrudr Skootnasty......

If there is an open spot, I would like to enlist in your LS. As you know I am on in most evenings (EST).

Send a /tell in game, I have you on my friendlist, so I may send you one if I see you online.

Thanks in advance
Skoot
