As you may have (not) noticed from my (lack of) frequency in posting to my journal, it's not something I do very much. Usually when I need to blow off steam, I use Twitter for that.

To be blunt, however, I'm getting pretty tired of seeing that lame and stale post I had tagged [MEME], and my [FFXI] tagged post is essentially a closed case. To the casual observer, both are quite tl;dr, anyway. So I'm bumping them off with this post, specifically about my four-letter tag usage. It's something that I decided to make tradition right when I was making the [MEME] post. The number four is actually lucky to me, personally, so using four letters, arranged all-caps in brackets, to sum up the field in which the subject is taking place . . . that just seems clean and elegant to me. :)

On an [FFXI] note, however, it did slightly bug me that the community team and the players didn't have an immediately clear consensus whether update notes posted on the official forums should be tagged "dev####" or "dev[####]". Not using the official forums much any more, anyway, other than the occasional lurk. I don't want my still low-level character to be cause to never be taken seriously again in an elitist atmosphere. But I digress. I do look forward to getting to level 90+, though I will need to get mathy again to decide what is the best route for me to take in equipment, especially concerning weaponry (I hear Chant du Cygne is kind of stupidly powerful, but I'd like to crunch the numbers when it becomes relevant to me).

Oh, also, for those of you who just comb through journals and almost never check your flood of submissions (because I do that as well), I've posted the butt badge a friend of mine did for me several months ago. I'm kind of embarrassed to share it, but do check it out and leave feedback. ^^;

Anyway, the time is currently hours-after-I-should've-been-in-bed o'clock, so I'm just going to pass out now as of this typing. v_v;
