got the new code working properly
clipper added to speeder


the code isn't completely finished I still need to change a few things like add an icon and window title
definitely felt the rust after taking a 2+ month break
glad for the free to play campaign I needed to do some practice

should be done soon
for now I need to go to sleep so I can wake up and go to work
once I finish up at work i'll come straight home and get to work

what this does is just add a no clip to speeder
so the normal speed boosts plus you can walk through walls
so far in my testing it works fine

already getting more ideas for things to add

I want to release a new program or release a new version of a program
I'm thinking I want to release my code for no clip
I could either add a no clip program or add the code to speeder

not sure which but most likely very soon I'll add something with no clip

maybe i'll release some of my test codes I wrote while learning and developing

if you have any interest in ffxi programs or code for programs check back the website will have some new stuff soon

Between upbe4t.com and upbeatffxi.blogspot.com (nothing to see here)
We’re up to 90,514 views
So cool guys
Almost 100,000 views
10% to 1 million views
And it’s just getting easier and easier to get those views 

Always wanted a website with some real views and it’s actually happening

Sorry for the delay on actual content
Just been busy with life and everything 
Setting everything in place to get solid posts coming out
I don’t play 11 anymore and I have a lot of resentment for everything in 11
I definitely plan on playing again and enjoying it eventually 
It’s just not that time right now

This is mainly a ffxi ff11 11 final fantasy xi final fantasy 11 website
And I plan on keeping it that way

Drafting irrelevant posts
Adding more set in stone quality ffxi content
Always looking to upgrade the layout

Now that I have more time off work hopefully we get this stuff done

Thank you readers of upbe4t.com

 Why is it so hard to find girls like 2012-2019 Karolyn Day or 2016-2020 Logan Schwank
Both woodlands girls both on we both generals
I really know what I like

Karolyne had that little bit raspy woodlands voice she was so sooo funny in her early videos goofy funny
Logan had the high energy fun videos and she streamed often
Both very outgoing fun to watch

It’s like
They don’t make them how they used to
And if you look at their new content it is absolutely NOTHING like it was which does make sense that’s when they were like 12-18 and they’re 20 25 now
Going to college changes everything 
Karolyne just got married
I honestly think Logan and Issac broke up because she doesn’t post him at all anymore which obviously I don’t know for a fact they broke up but I think it would be a good thing
He seemed super nice but well I don’t want to say anything bad about the guy
Tall skinny people that are super nice seem like a candidate to have negative sides behind closed doors but I could be completely wrong
Anyways she doesn’t post him at all anymore and hasn’t in several weeks

LOGAN !! I WANT TO FOREVER MARRY YOU I WANT OUR  CARRIAGE

 Can I talk about my stor(me in anger management)
I do take responsibility for what I did and why I’m in this class
I do know what I could of done to avoid it, I had money I could of moved out I just didn’t think it would be possible for me

Well my grandma passed away in 2022 and all this happened in 2023 she always kept everyone happy even when another would upset them

I remember the day I went to jail we were having a meeting in the living room about something needs to change
And I was adamantly asking for the changes I wanted
Him to pee outside him to spit in a napkin 
I didn’t mind the cursing and yelling at the tv
But the 20 min long pees when my room was next to the restroom he claimed he could pee so long because he had an iron stomach 
He would spit all throughout the day as loud as possible it felt like and it would cause me to cringe 

I knew the walking away and I knew the letting it go
But if I walked away or let it go he would just be right there spitting peeing having another meeting and avoiding all the changes I asked and instantly wanting more work done
Work he always said he would pay for but would never pay

I called non emergency 911 over 8 times
They couldn’t do anything if he wasn’t going to be violent physically 
They couldn’t get him out of the house
No one ever even suggested I move out
I talked to every single medical person councilor shrink therapist psychiatrist nurse doctor you name it and it was always about feeling abused belittled betrayed neglected all of it

I usually start out by saying my grandpa picked on me from a very young age he was a big racist to blacks Mexicans and several other groups of people
I’m half Mexican so that always hurt
He always talked about my mom and sister saying they ate everything and were fatasses and he ate anything you left in the refrigerator too I had to buy my own mini fridge to keep my food away from him 

I knocked him out and I have to admit it felt good it felt better than losing my virginity which I waited daily for that to happen for about 14 years
I feel like my punishment is light 
I was offered 4 years in prison
I got 3 years on probation 
I’ve finished half way on the three years
I did 130 days in jail
I’ve finished all my community service 
My anger management has one my class
I’ve paid 9,000 out of $10,000
I have no violations so far

I hear you saying everyone must feel stupid for what they did to end up here and this is a good place to be if you got in and there’s much worse
I’m happy with what I did
I got away and I got orders to not talk to him or be around him
That’s what I wanted the entire time

And if we do it again the charge will be much worse
I don’t ever plan on living with anyone for the rest of my life
And I highly highly highly doubt I’ll live with anyone old man I have to love while not even liking but I have to do everything like I love them while they’re mentally working me and physically working me with no pay

If my life replayed I probably would do it again a few more times
Until eventually I just started moving out before I did it

Obviously I wouldn’t do it a second time in this life
But I’m not upset or feel stupid for doing it
It saved my life

I was a happy person I did good I had money
He was driving me to be stupid doing things like attempting suicide
As a happy person
And I’ll own up to that I just wanted to get away from him

He always had money but he couldn’t help the family for shit 
But if he wanted something he would get it that day

I would use all my weed waiting to get to a job that wouldn’t pay then when I would ask for money to get that weed back legally from a store he would talk to me like I was a drug addict

It just gets me that for weeks probably months the sit down talk was about what needed to change
And I was so damn infuriated that I was literally spelling out what needed to be changed
Pee outside not by my room
Spit in a napkin not as loud as you can in the trash
That’s when I snapped
Because it was like it was some unsolvable math problem to him and I’m literally telling him every chance I get what I want
And he just goes completely oblivious and thinks I need to change not him

The person that knows their not perfect and takes responsibility and maybe it’s not them
But you get someone that literally claims they are perfect 
And that just hurts right at the get go
But then you forgive too many times
And it’s just a weight on your mind body soul mentally and physically 
You can’t just keep forgiving and walk away you can’t just keep doing time outs
Eventually you just break
Like anything holding more weight than what the thing is rated to hold

I didn’t think I could move out on my own
I could have
I knocked out an old man
And I got everything I wanted

Community service done
1 more anger management 
$9,000 out of $10,000 paid
25 months done with 14-20 months to go

I’m not ashamed I don’t feel stupid I don’t feel like a criminal 
I feel the society I live in is so flawed that some elderly can get away with anything because they’ve learnt and all the workers are half their age
And no one actually cares if there’s no way physical violence 
But I feel the court knows him and how bad he is and I got it very easy and light like a slap on the wrist not the book 

He was a top rank Freemason and didn’t have to work a normal job and had a wife that did all the cooking and cleaning and besides just sitting at work shooting the shit or at home yelling at the tv cursing or getting the wife all in a fit
He would drink and drive every single day
He would throw fits if something he was moving got stuck and would just pout
And I always felt above the law
I smoked weed I would drink and drive I would sell drugs I would buy drugs
And I never had any run ins with the law
But at the same time it always felt like the law or cops wouldn’t ever do anything 
He was always so sure what he was doing wasn’t going to get him in trouble
As long as he didn’t hit me or hurt me physically he could get away with anything 
And that took its toll on me

making plans to update and upgrade the website
have some other higher priority things I need to take care of first(cleaning apartment, work, etc)
I have a lot more time now that I'm done with community service so I want to spend that time cleaning and upgrading the website
when I can set some time I have a small list of things I want to accomplish

adding more content to jobs pages
removing majority of posts not ffxi related
adding more value to posts that do get kept

buying a domain for upbeatffxi.blogspot.com (nothing to see here)
getting ads on upbe4t.com

definitely still planning on upgrading and updating all my ff11 programs and apps not being subbed really makes it hard to develop for programs since I can't test any of it
haven't really been feeling creative as far as programming goes so just going to leave that alone until I actually want to develop
I occasionally search to see what other developers are making as far as ff11 goes and most is stuff I either don't care much to write or already have wrote or is so well developed I don't think I could write something similar and on top of that most ff11 apps or programs are like 10+ years old and there's almost no dedicated websites for ff11 development in 2025 I have one discord that focuses on ff11 development and almost no one posts in it maybe once every 3 or 4+ months

I want to write a guide to use eliteapi.dll even knowing almost no one will use it and there's really not much you can do with it
was a fun challenge for me to learn to write with it

we've tried many things on the website to see what works and what doesn't work
I was honestly surprised I hosted my minecraft server for years and never got a single visitor
music on the site doesn't work well
pokemon go doesn't work well
logan and willow pages do decent but that's not ff11 related so it's going out on a limb to add that
cooking recipes didn't do well
youtube and twitch video streams was pretty cool but I don't stream anymore

with 11 years of experience hosting this website
strictly ff11 content does the best
which for a 23 year old video game there is not a lot I can think of to actually post
the game is slowing down the content is very limited
and it all comes down to wanting to get better wanting to improve wanting to get the most out of your time not wanting feel like you're at a job or wasting time
where usually doing nothing and being bored is better than working too hard and feeling like you're at a job or wasting time
if I do pirates chart 50 times and get 1 mkris or if I go chocobo digging for month and end up making only 10m or if I craft +1s and it takes 4 months to sell 3 pieces of gear
no one does ballista which would be very good to post ballista gets a lot of audience retainment but no one does it lol 

I'm thinking about making a thread on ffxiah to post the website and ask for website upgrade advice

I really enjoy my time doing nothing just scrolling on youtube maybe watching 1 video every 10 pages of scrolling then looking at something on my phone
it isn't productive but it's about my favorite thing to do during this section of life
eventually I do something actually productive but it takes a lot of doing nothing to finally get there lol

I said I wouldn't do it but I wanted to

  cali gets bud because they get to see our sun cross the ocean and rise

and watching it come up so glorious each day is so beautiful
it's like watching a bird or a good exorcism
it's such a strong emotion experience
even your boss or grandma or mom or dad would hand you a pipe and say smoke this ganja

some other states get it too besides cali
but cali gets it the most
and states like texas don't get it at all really

it's not smoking because your sick and need to feel better for pain or cancer or an appetite or sleep

it's smoking because it is so beautiful you go in straight awe and if you smoke you can fully allow the beauty to commence
it's like your doing nothing wrong but your on god you have all the money your life and everyone life is so perfect it is like you are the one and only star and starts to get hella trippy
so everyone passes even if you don't have any
just to get off that complete bliss 
it's sorta like heaven or you could call it the complete opposite of hell

we don't get to see the sun actually rise and many other states don't get that either

like seeing a girl in a barn that rises each day the most beautiful girl ever and she dies every night but you don't want it to be all about you so you can smoke and the play just plays out how it should
without you being a tyrant or feeling like a complete god

and that's why some people smoke the only reason why some people smoke
and that's usually your people that smoke all day everyday they just feel that
if it isn't for sickness or pain

they honestly think it is a little weird that medical marijuana is the way the nation has decided to make it okay
I mean giving it to the people that are hurting or sick is fine nothing wrong with that
but shouldn't thc be for the healthy people that can experience what I am referring to
not sick people that need it to live a normal life
people that get stuck on god in heavens as the one and only star just to have a normal

Like being in the shower and it not being tears of an angel that's weeping from pain or sorrow but tears of joy from an angel realizing they are an angel and the one they want to notice them is noticing them and everything is working out perfect better than perfect completely divine

New tut coming soon

 Been awake 24 hours
Worked twice
Did a complete website rebuild
Did a lot of brainstorming about a new domain
Worked on my domain for several hours getting a proper upbe4t link to upbeatffxi.blogspot
b.upbe4t.com or upbe4t.com/blog but you can’t use www.

Anyways
I plan on writing a guide to using eliteapi.dll in python 

I’ve got about all I’m going to get out of it and I may as well share what I’ve found
It could be tomorrow maybe a few days maybe weeks
But I do have that planned to go up at some point

Website broke Almost 100% back

Website is just about back to how it was
some stuff like title size and some colors are a little off
I'll fix that when I get some time
Just glad to have it working for the most part again lol

It took a lot of testing and editing code then eventually just resetting and upgrading
I finally got it fixed

just a word of advice if you do ever use blogger to host your site if you use the blogger picture style theme and delete the main body post widget gadget thing there's just about no way to actually get it back
you have to downgrade then upgrade then move and change everything back to how you want it

Website broke

Broke the website
Staying up until it's fixed or I pass out

My Personal Posts

is now cleaned up and no longer 18+
if you want to read my daily posts that is where they will be located from now on

I cleaned up the main page
drafted all the posts

starting clean
plan on staying clean with my posts sometimes I get a little out of line but there's always a major clean up directly afterwards you have to catch it in like 5 mins to see when I do post something edgy

thinking about buying a domain for that website but I'm right at the point I don't want to spend another $14 a year I can easily afford it but then again I don't really know if I can actually afford it lol

the domain it uses now isn't THAT long or bad and it is very clear who runs the site

Upbeatffxi .blogspot .com 
Upbeatffxi is easy to remember .blogspot is easy to remember and of course .com

I have no idea what I would make the domain then I would have to do all the set up to get it working which isn't that bad just the process of actually thinking of a domain lol

maybe I could even use Upbe4t.com and have another link to upbeatffxi.blogspot.com
I'll look into that

anyways thanks for reading and coming to the website
can't wait to make more posts for everyone to read
always wanting to make the website better for the usual viewers and the new viewers

 Just wanted to remind everyone I post all my updates on Upbeatffxi.blogspot.com
It is 18+ but I’m working on getting rid of all the 18+ content
And taking off the age restriction 

Just made a post about how good 2006 was and how it was the best time I can remember until I found Logan
And the Logan era is the best time I can remember in my entire life
I could make an entire wall about 2006
But I could make an entire coliseum about Logan
