Returning back to PSO 2 and need group ship 2

[Daft]

I'm not new when it comes to PSO games, but it has been at least a year since I've been on PSO2. I can see a lot of changes have happened since I've been gone so I could use the help catching up (I don't mean power leveling me of course). Just looking for a good group of people that help and chat with each other, has a good balance between relaxing and knowing it's just a game, and who like to grind runs and hunt items. It would be nice to meet a group who do voice chats too because typing all the time will slow me down. :D

My character should be at decent level if I recall...I think somewhere between 50-70.
Right now I'm having problems running the game with Tweaker, so I'm doing a lot of troubleshooting with that. ^^; ...and what's up with this VPN now?

Anyways, I'm looking forward to find a good group. I'll check back a few more times tonight on this thread.

Niare Sky is my player ID I mainly use (I have 3 of em). Feel free to add me, I'm up for usually anything :) I'd offer membership in my team, but we're kinda full atm plus I can't actually add you, one of the managers has to. If a spot opens, perhaps I can try then.

Tweaker's been through some changes. New way of installing story patch and stuff (story's gotten better btw). May want to head over to Arks-Layer to start fresh if you're getting trouble.

DDoS attacked a while back. Screwed up western ISPs ability to connect to the site and the game. Tweaker will still download things fine.
If you live in the U.S., Verizon FIOS and Time Warner Cable can connect just fine. If not, there are three alternate ways to connect that I know of: VPNs, PSO2Proxy, and SSH Tunneling using Amazon Web Services. I'll find the thread links for this stuff if you need em. I recommend using AWS as its the safest of the three.

PSO2Proxy: I couldn't actually find a thread for it, but here's the site you can get it from: http://pso2proxy.cyberkitsune.net/

Yes! The threads and guides to that would be great. Thanks man. Working on redownloading everything now.

While I'm throwing links around, we also got a new miming base defense EQ (not sure if you were around for it) Anyway, here's a guide for that: http://www.pso-world.com/forums/showthread.php?t=220782

PHEW! That's a lot of stuff.

This will definitely take all night to get the downloads going again. I will check back with this later.

Yeah, a lot was added...
