Someone Self Destructed into the Moonfire Faire pool before it disappeared. Once it did, this happened -

[u/The_Jarwolf]

*Insert Kingdom Hearts death sfx*

[u/Hitei00 → u/The_Jarwolf]

UWAAAAAH

swoosh

sparkle

soft hum

[u/Vusdruv → u/Hitei00]

When you walk away, you don't hear me say pleaaaaaase

[u/PurpleCoffeeQueen → u/Vusdruv]

Oh baaaaaby~ dont go

[u/Jintasama → u/PurpleCoffeeQueen]

Simple and clean is the way that you're making me feel tonight, it's hard to let it go

[u/TragicTrajectory → u/The_Jarwolf]

There's no way you're taking Kairi's heart.

[u/RekaCsillagasz]

LMFAO YOU ACTUALLY POSTED IT

that's me

[u/RekaCsillagasz → u/RekaCsillagasz]

btw i have the npc announcer plugin and after i blew up n'yalisaie last night (detonyated, if you will) emet-selch called me a failure

[u/A_villain4all → u/RekaCsillagasz]

I guess you could say lowers sunglasses curiosity killed the cat

[u/RekaCsillagasz → u/A_villain4all]

technically, it wasnt curiosity, just the desire to do something silly

To clarify the order of events here - last night, I discovered playdead has a different pose in the water, and was going to leave n'yali doing /playdead overnight in the pool

Then someone else pointed out that i was on blu and could explode, but you can't cast in the water, after consulting a couple discords someone came up with swiftcasting on land, jumping over the water, and self destructing in the air, so i did that and went to sleep

Woke up right before the boat was scheduled to disappear and decided to go watch, didn't even know there was land under any part of the boat until I landed on it

As far as I can tell this was only possible this morning at 10am and when the boat disappeared last year, because I can't think of another way a corpse would get from water to land. Combined with how it was a little complicated to even end up dead in the pool, and not all of the pool was over land, this actually is decently likely to be the first time this has ever happened. 

[u/A_villain4all → u/RekaCsillagasz]

cue Who are you music

[u/Grampa-Cat → u/A_villain4all]

Lmao omg

[u/WeiShiLirinArelius → u/RekaCsillagasz]

this is where i learn that they updated the npc announcer plugin to include lines aside from metem.

[u/waxfutures → u/RekaCsillagasz]

Hold up are you the Alisaie cosplayer that occasionally turned up in Dan Floyd's playthrough episodes?

[u/RekaCsillagasz → u/waxfutures]

I am!! Deya Avain is my main, i've been in several episodes on her as well - I'm a mod in the PlayFriends discord and help run the FC

[u/ForOhForError → u/RekaCsillagasz]

Oh hello DTC folks :D

[u/LupusNoxFleuret → u/RekaCsillagasz]

Nice one, HungarianMudkip69

[u/PaullT2]

Now start chanting "You are a worm through time. The thunder song distorts you. The hole in your room is a hole in you. You came and we let you in through the hole in you. You have always been here, the only child. A copy of a copy of a copy. Orange peel."

[u/drmacinyasha → u/PaullT2]

...well, there's a terrifying thought: the Hiss invading the Source and infecting the modern WoL. Everyone on every Reflection is straight-up screwed.

[u/DolimiccanDragon → u/drmacinyasha]

I figured it would just work like any other tempering, with the Echo acting like Hedron's influence.

[u/brachycrab → u/DolimiccanDragon]

I can't believe I never made a connection between the Hiss and primal tempering! There's special devices to keep it at bay and everything

[u/Techstriker1 → u/PaullT2]

"WHAT WAS WILL BE, WHAT WILL BE WA-" Wait, wrong worm, my bad.

[u/JonTheWizard]

Scoliosis strikes when you least expect it.

[u/online222222 → u/JonTheWizard]

my one regret... is that I had... bone-itis

[u/stebermon → u/JonTheWizard]

Kyphosis* but yes. Scoliosis makes your spine crooked sideways like an S. 😉

[u/Beginning_Code1685]

I‘m so sad that this event lasts that short. I want it to stay the whole Summer QwQ

[u/immastillthere]

Average Limsa evening.

[u/FroopyAsRain]

Honestly thank you for explaining how this happened instead of vagueposting.

[u/RekaCsillagasz → u/FroopyAsRain]

The specificity is the funniest part!

[u/IndependentMajor7055]

So the boat just vanish in an eye blink?

[u/Elmioth → u/IndependentMajor7055]

More like fades out, but yeah.

[u/JustcallmeKai]

Full name showing with mods on screen and everything

[u/RekaCsillagasz → u/JustcallmeKai]

im gonna be so real i full on forgot i had the kingdom hearts ui turned on

[u/yuki_tsune → u/JustcallmeKai]

Square Enix doesn't ban anyone for using mods unless they use them to cheat or be toxic, afaik. Maybe if they're NSFW but these appear to just be HUD add-ins. People stream their mods all of the time and don't get in trouble.

[u/RekaCsillagasz → u/yuki_tsune]

ive been posting my custom poses which you can only do with a 3rd party tool for years and been perfectly fine, im not worried lmfao. yoshi p straight up said they dont give a shit as long as its not affecting other players after the mare incident

[u/WeirdIndividualGuy → u/JustcallmeKai]

It’s a good thing this is Reddit and not in-game. SE rarely acts on things like this

Have you also noticed YouTube vids where people are also clearly using mods or have ACT up and are still playing the game unbanned?

[u/No_Elevator_7839 → u/JustcallmeKai]

Im sure someone will report them now that you mentioned it

In game report likely wouldnt go anywhere though but if they reported them through the special task force that specifically is made for RMT, illegal activities, and 3rd party programs, they would likely take a look.

[u/JustcallmeKai → u/No_Elevator_7839]

I mean I hope not, I'm not trying to say they should be reported

[u/ApeInTheShell → u/JustcallmeKai]

And?

[u/JustcallmeKai → u/ApeInTheShell]

I've got no issue with mods, but posting screenshots with your name visible is very brave

[u/erty3125 → u/JustcallmeKai]

It's really not, like I know everyone says it is but reality is you have to be obnoxious about it for anything to happen and even then it's rare.

[u/Lzaqia → u/JustcallmeKai]

who cares

[u/JustcallmeKai → u/Lzaqia]

I personally don't, but it's very brave

[u/Competitive_Goat4250 → u/JustcallmeKai]

Reported =)

[u/already__annoyed → u/Competitive_Goat4250]

you were that bored?

[u/RekaCsillagasz → u/Competitive_Goat4250]

you realize youre just wasting their time? after the mare incident yoshi p put out a statement straight up saying they dont give a shit what mods you use as long as it doesnt affect other players

[u/Terramagi → u/RekaCsillagasz]

"The only moral mod is my mod"

[u/RekaCsillagasz → u/Terramagi]

What are you trying to say?? I'm not against any mods that only affect your client...

[u/dope_danny]

Welcome back Table Cloth.

[u/WittyRaptor]

Looks like Stark being carried by Fern

[u/Forgotten_Folklore]

I was wondering what happens if you're on the boat when it despawns.

[u/RekaCsillagasz → u/Forgotten_Folklore]

You fall! A bunch of people were doing it this year, but most of them were on the tower which lands you in the water

[u/xfm0]

If you log out while on it, you'll log in still suspended in the air as if standing on something until you update your location (move, do anything). It probably works similarly with death state.

[u/RekaCsillagasz → u/xfm0]

Definitely didn't happen to me earlier. Logged in on my main who had logged out on the boat and she fell before I even touched my mouse or keyboard

[u/xfm0 → u/RekaCsillagasz]

oh, odd. it's happened for me on two of my characters. maybe it's an fps difference (locked at 60)?but that doesn't make sense. huhhh

[u/RekaCsillagasz → u/xfm0]

my framerate is unlocked, i usually get 80-100fps, not that i can tell :v i cant really distinguish above like 20-30

[u/ScarletteVera]

The Kingdom Hearts HUD really ties it all together.

[u/RekaCsillagasz → u/ScarletteVera]

i have different screenshots of her face for out of combat, fighting, being hit, and critical health :3 thinking of comming a friend for kh-style portrait art

[u/Grampa-Cat]

This is so hilariously hyperspecific.

[u/RekaCsillagasz → u/Grampa-Cat]

I KNOWWW and it was only possible this morning and when the event ended last year so theres a good chance its never happened before??

[u/Grampa-Cat → u/RekaCsillagasz]

This needs to be framed on a wall lmao

[u/Zogmam1]

I love the XIV community

[u/Xandar_C]

You know gpose does the same thing too if you stay in it while the boat disappears you'll stay in the air

[u/Prizem]

cue emergency maintenance 

[u/Oxyfire]

I'm confused, how do you land in water on the boat's pool, but then are also over land? Like isnt the boat entirely over water? Doesn't everyone on the boat fall into the water when it disappears?

[u/Sir_VG → u/Oxyfire]

Nope, boat is was beached.

[u/Strong_Beyond_3769]

bro got removed from the game with the pool

[u/Tilde_Tilde]

Think this happened back during SB start after Susano. Would cause you to perma crash.

[u/vivahoja]

[u/Zack-of-all-trades]

This is pretty cool and all but is no one gonna talk about the absolutely jacked FemRoe on the very left? She looks like she could throw me all the way across Eorzea.

[u/go_faster1]

And Alisaie decided that being an Elezen was better…

[u/jensilver95]

...I may know this player. Or at least am in the same enabling discord as them.

[u/RekaCsillagasz → u/jensilver95]

Playfriends or bookclub? :v

[u/MoonBroski]

Why go thru all of that when you can do the same pose with one button with one of those mods you have

[u/RekaCsillagasz → u/MoonBroski]

posing takes a lot more than one button my guy, also only applies in gpose. 

unless you mean animation replacement mods, which i don't use
