Hi all
« on: April 23, 2004, 08:44:04 am »
I just wanted to introduce myself and say that PlaneShift is really looking great! I was a long-time player of UO (I really hope the PS community never ends up like that) but I haven\'t played that, or any other MMORPG, in about 8 months. One of the major reasons is because, being completely fed-up with Windoze and Micro$ofts \"trusted computing\" direction, I completely switched to Linux.

I think that PS being developed for Linux is totally awesome. There were a lot of sacrifices I had to make to be totally free of the borg and it\'s exciting to see a light on the horizon.

I tried the lates PS release a few months ago and was really impressed with the quality of it (considering it\'s not even really alpha yet) And I can\'t wait for the next release.

Well, thanks for listening to me ramble....

It\'s still there. The people that play it are just... erm... very selfish. That\'s about as nice as I can put it.

You know in what game people are probably VERY selfish... PE! Think about it, you actualy waste you own money to buy ingame stuff.

Any whom, welcome Barugon.



Q: How many Planeshifters does it take to expalin a simple concept to a newb?
A: Six. Five to argue on who\'s explanation is right, and Moogie to lock the thread.

Yes, and it\'s very sad...

Anyway, Welcome to Planeshift Barugon.  Enjoy your stay!
