So I need a little help from anyone that's been around a while. I'm currently doing research for a convention panel about FFXIV memes and weird glitches, inspired by the Lv 1 , squapes, and other community silliness. Organic memes that sorta evolved out of a random occurrence or glitch in the game that everyone kinda latched onto.

If anyone has any stories and or screenshots, please add them to this post. I have plenty of Lv 1 , squapes, twinning, and La Hee stuff, looking for other things like Skybear, smoothrock, Raubahn EX or any others. I didn't take a lot of screenshots back in the day so I don't really have anything pre SHB.

Please reblog this for reach, especially if you have stories or screenshots to add. Also let me know if and how you'd like to be credited.

THIS "ANIMATED FILM"

CRITTERZ, (for a bit of context) IS A FULLY AI GENERATED "SHORT ANIMATED NATURE DOCUMENTARY" FROM 2023, PRODUCED UNDER VERTIGO FILMS AND NATIVE FOREIGN(native foreign is a very pro-ai company). WELL FUCKING GUESS WHAT.

ITS GETTING A FULL FEATURE LENGTH FILM, ALSO WRITERS FROM PADDINTON IN PERU ARE WORKING ON IT.

DO. NOT. WATCH.

I REPEAT, DONT EVEN HATE WATCH IT OR PIRATE IT, STAY AWAY FROM IT AT ALL COSTS. DON'T PAY ATTENTION TO IT ALL, CORPORATE ONLY SPEAKS MONEY SO JUST STAY TF AWAY.

AS AN ARTIST I CAN'T LET SHIT LIKE THIS SLIDE, I REFUSE TO LET PEOPLE'S JOBS BE TAKEN BY SHIT LIKE THIS.

FUCK AI.
