On December 1st, 2008, bored of either killing prostitutes in GTA: San Andreas or sniping people from across the street in Hitman: Blood Money, I decided to try a new type of game. I had heard of these MMORPGs, but didn't know if I really wanted to invest the time (and money most of all). But then on my usual search for open source games I came across this one, and one year later I can say I've had a lot of enjoyable times here. I chose to revive this thread because I first saw it not long after I signed up for the forum, but had not played long enough to warrant a post. I always thought it was a great idea that amongst all the talk of RP vs PL, wipe vs non-wipe, and all other PS issues, that there was a place where players can show their appreciation for one another. And so today, I just wanted to finally take a moment to thank all those that made playing this game such a wonderful experience, such as:
Morla - My IG wife and RL one of my closest friends. Always making me thankful I boredly looked up MMORPGs that fateful day. Thank you for just being you, even when you are a little bit crazy, but then again, so am I
Lhaa - My first friend in PS both IC and OOC, and the reason I decided to stay and give it a try. Thanks for giving a menki a place in this world. And thanks for all the effort you put in to make things happen.
Aiwendil - For all your hard work and friendship. Jonoth will always enjoy an ale with Red.
Elvi - Founder of the Outlaws and weirdest of the weirdos!
Allola - MUH TAIL! Thanks for returning it. And for always stirring things up!
Siteya - Always taught Jonoth the beauty of life and peace. You still owe me that walk!
Elady - Because you make everyday life in Hydlaa fun and interesting. Thanks for always lending Jonoth an ear.
Aerynaia - For giving me reasons to slack off at work. Miss you!
Rigwyn - If PS had a god of war, Rig would be it. Thanks for reminding me how good it is to be bad!
Garris - The menki Jonoth looked up to while he was still wet behind the ears.
Mellas - Always a willing friend/victim. Thanks for making it fun to be good/bad.

EVER have.

Orgonwukh - Never a dull moment! Thanks Org (and beer) for many a good time.
Kaisa - You are the best example of player participation there is! Thanks for all the great events and storylines!
Morila - I can't count on my fingers how many times I've stopped myself from logging off when you logged in just because I knew things would pick up!

Sacho - My brother in enkien! Always glad to see you!
Jaycol - Thanks for all the great reading Jonoth got to do as he travelled near and far. You are the king of scribes!
Anaros - For a great character and for OOC putting up with my weirdness.

Thank you to The Outlaws, all my dwarven brothers and sisters in the Way of the Hammer, the Daughters of Xiosia, the Red Crystal Organization, the Hydlaa Guard for putting up with Jonoth's taunts, the PS team for starting and continuing this wonderful project, all the other players I forgot to mention but are always appreciated, and last but not least....
To anyone who has spoken to Remyl for more than 5 seconds, especially any women, thanks for being a good sport
