Strolling out to the dunes as a level 10 Warrior, sword and shield in hand and not knowing what Provoke was. Fortunately, I met a friendly party out there and enrolled in their rent a Great Axe scheme. lol
My favourite memory would be trioing with 2 WHM and BLM friends on Goobs in the Tree and after careful planning we triple dinged 75 on the same kill. Awesome.
Entering Lufaise Meadows for the first time after completed the Promys on Hard Mode.
Getting BST to 75 before the MPK patch.
Currently the quest to level 80 and picking up some fancy Perle gear on the way.

Well got a memorable story from yesterday when my friend went out at around 2 AM to buy the game [ he lost the free 30 day trial ticket I gave him].
While he was updating he saw that it was 8 hours I guess by the slip of the lip I said "Oh that's not that bad." Turned and looked at me and yelled [but with a smile on his face] "Not that bad??! -- 8 hours isn't that bad!?" Then explained to him how long it took me to update on PS2 with a slightly broadband connection
Another story would be a group I was in way back when I played the game harder and we were being power leveled. The PLer wanted to join in cause he was tired of just healing and we said sure [because we all had been there] except for one guy who didn't want him to [this was the time when level sync was around]. Either way we argued with the guy/girl about why the PL should join ultimately we just kicked him/her invited the PL and one more person into the group. Then had another PL come by
. The guy/girl we kicked was sitting around waiting for an invite for a while but ultimately logged off after an hour or so I think.

Heyyyyyy!!! Nice to see you here! I remember going to the Dunes as thief and having no idea what people meant when they asked me to 'pull'. ;D

Hey Siali, thought I'd pop in now and again.
Currently working on my Magian Axes. Not sure if this is memorable for the right reasons. lol

As someone put it in the youtube comments, logging in to this was magical.
That's it. That's what I wanted from XIV. A magical experience in an unfathomably large world full of life and potential. I hope it can someday deliver.
