Well, I wanted to have a nicer way of keeping track of members current progression through the multiple expansions and areas. This list is mainly a listing of missions(progression?), as they must be completed linearly, with new areas(flags?) being granted at certain stages(missions) in the process. Anyone with FFXI knowledge please give me some input and feedback on this list before I submit this to guildportal. *Sorry about the formatting, it didn't copy/paste over from notepad so hot lol.

Well, I did actually get most of my information from that site, so glad we agree on a good source for the info. However, I know theres a few things missing, like Sacririum access from a certain PM. Yet, I think a mostly complete list like this would be immensely helpful for guild management, and have submitted this list in a feature update request form. A few weeks have passed and I have yet to hear any form of response.....Should I expect them to reply to my guild email? the email address I used to signup? Any way I can find out whether my request is being considered or what the current status is?

any word on this update? my ls is yelling at me since dancer and scholar arent on the job lists.
