FFXIV:Main Page
Welcome Kupo!
Welcome to Alea Iacta Est's home for Final Fantansy XIV: A Realm Reborn. Our Free Company is part of the larger AIE Gaming Community. We truly hope to provide a home for gamers regardless of which aspect of the game that they choose to enjoy. The purpose of this page is to give folks an easy reference guide for finding us, joining us, and before all of that, deciding if they even want to join us in the first place.
About Us
Server: NA, Gilgamesh Free Company: Alea Iacta Est, <AIE>
Now, let’s find out if you even want to summon your chocobo with us and ride off into the sunrise of Eorzea.
Our corner of AIE follows the general policies set forth by the original guild founded (and very much still flourishing) in World of Warcraft. Please review them in detail here. We will update this page when we have finalized our own variation of the policies that are more FFXIV specific but for now that’s an excellent place to get started.
We are very focused on building a great community. Most of our policies can be described as common sense respect, but we do have some specifics. We keep free company chat family friendly, this means we require our members to avoid swearing and discussing inappropriate subjects. We have many FC members that have small children and we ask everyone to behave accordingly. Please also avoid spamming and trying to caps lock your way to glory. Beyond keeping chat G-rated we do not allow inflammatory discussions - please avoid discussing politics, religion, or other “hot button” topics. There is a debate section of the ExtraLife forums that you are encouraged to participate in if you would like! If you have a question or concern regarding the way something is being handled we invite you to email the officers at officers@ffxiv.aie-guild.org.
Members are encouraged to create static groups,Raid Teams, PvP teams, FC events, and other game structures on their own. FC officers will support and facilitate these social groups within AIE. At times, you may see an officer startup one of these groups themselves. This is not an offical group, but rather a player that wishes to run something in an organized fashion. The officers are FC mate and FFXIV players too!
How to Join
Step 1: Read over our Free Company Policies, also listed below.
Everyone is responsible for know and abiding to the Free Company Policies.
Step 2: Go to UMAMI, and create your UMAMI account. UMAMI is the Universal Multi-game AIE Membership Interface, and is used to apply to games and log into AIE services.
To do so, click on "Login" on the upper right corner of the UMAMI screen.
Then, click on "Need an account" under the login button.
Finally fill out the web form. We just need an account name, email address, and a password. Once you have that, click on the "Send Activation Email" button. An email will be sent to you to verify your email address from admin@aie-universal.net. If you do not receive the email in a few moments, please check your Junk/Spam folders. The email will have a link in it to activate your UMAMI account.
Step 3: Log into UMAMI and apply to the FFXIV Free Company
Now that you have your UMAMI account activated, you can log into UMAMI using your new username and password. Click on the "Login" button on the upper right corner of UMAMI and then enter your username and password. Once you are logged in, you will see your username on the upper right corner.
To apply for membership in AIE, select the "Games" drop down from the upper left. From there, you will see the list of games that AIE has an official presence in. Click on the Final Fantasy XIV link to join the FFXIV FC. On the next screen, click on "New Application" to submit your application.
If you have not filled out an application yet you may do so through UMAMI, located here. You will need to make an UMAMI account, or log into an existing one, and then select the game you wish to apply to (in this case FFXIV). Each game requires a separate application, as well as each character. This includes alts.
Each application is reviewed personally by an officer so response time varies but you can typically expect a reply within about 24 hours.
If you have been accepted to the guild and are looking for an invite there are two ways you can go about finding an officer.
- Join the ffxiv_lfo Jabber channel.
- Send a tell to one of the officers on this list.
