What makes a good event? Well that's a bit complicated! A good event requires a creative idea, careful planning, and coordination amongst the people planning it! If that's done, then the event will go off without a hitch and the players participating in it will have lots of fun!
But what makes a good event into a great event? That's simple -- moogles.
Square-Enix and the Final Fantasy XI development team know that sometimes good events can become great events with a little bit of developer intervention. Now, with the advent of Player Event Support, everyday players can request the appearance of moogles to help out with their events in Final Fantasy XI!
Taking advantage of this service is as easy as picking up a pendant compass to determine where you want to place your moogles and filling out a request form over at PlayOnline. If your event is approved, you do the hosting while the developers put moogles where you require them the most! We can't wait to see what players create with this new service!

Wow. I don't play Final Fantasy XI anymore, but that is absolutely amazing. Kudos to Squenix for actually giving player-run events some "oomph."

too bad you can't create a new account with Square-Enix to play FFXI unless your credit card provider supports the new requirement called "securecode", garbage.
I wish this would get more attention, a lot of players on FFXI fansites are complaining about it

Yeah this happened just as I was quitting FFXI. It seems that RMT were abusing the hell out of chargebacks each time SE banned them, so they started doing drastic measures, the latest requiring all US credit card accounts to be compatible with these services.
From what I read though not everyone is, and although you can still play till your CC card expires, if it does and your bank doesn't support it you wont be able to play.
It seems to me to be very illtimed, when players are losing faith with SE due to the meh nature of recent updates and mini-expansions.

There's players left to host events? I thought they all got banned for just playing the game. Considering SE still refuses to return some accounts or comment on it...
