Marq!!
*tackle-hugs*
Hi. :)

I would so go back in game to see Marq have to explain to Nurahk his tab. ;D

*coughs*
You know you are an oldbie when you'd come back just to see a single RP between characters you haven't seen in years. :D

You might be an oldbie if between the time you created your proclaimed "main" and you really went to RP them there was a gap of a couple years, and then, a couple years after you rage-quit after having RPed them for a couple years, you think about returning.

(This is a completely fictional story that might indicate you're an oldbie, not an accurate description of my current situation.)

You might be an oldbie if you have more tria than you know what to do with, if this is the case you know where to come  ;D

@LigH: It's only burglary if you take something... Marq was just, eh, napping.

@Illysia: WHOA, I totally forgot I used to put all Marq's drinks on Nurahk's tab. Thanks for reminding me! Gave me a really good laugh.

It's good to see you two lurking around still. :)

And on a related note...

You might be an oldbie if you only post on the forums every 2 - 3 years just to see who is still around.


Edit: And Eurac, believe me, there are broke Oldbie characters too. :P

Marq stops by and gets me thinking of the bad old days of ought-five and ought-six. Got me rooting around on the forums. The link below was a two-week wonder, and it was before the OP had dropped the bomb, but entertained with that eventual debacle. There was a lot happening on the system back then, this would have been after the Daehaz thing, but Einnol would have still been around and working something. Also sometime around the period of UtM's the Uncommon Cold, or such, if I remember correctly. Sworn Council of Yliakum was still active, as were The Enlightened. And… Duraza was about doing his Svengaliesque RP. Chazarus was still around, lol. Frak. Pisik. Xylaal. Zhai. Maerghaine. Hadfael would bug you if you were out of line. The old fire in the Kada-El. DR dueling club and Ulber hunts with the gang from the Elemental Light. Bit below was one bit happening on the system, and I would estimate that something less than 10% of what was ever going on in game ever made it to the forum, like footprints in the sand on a windy day, no trace. No matter how anyone felt about anyone else, or whatever anyone did… what a bunch of characters!

Last time I saw Xylaal was when Nolthrir females were released. I might have seen Zhai since that but most of those names I haven't heard hide nor hair about in a long time. That is sad since Illysia only gets her swords from Einnol repaired by Einnol. :(

Well, I read skimmed that thread of yours verden and look what I found. :whistling:
I'm old.
:innocent:

You know, I wish lurking oldbies would at least log on to MyPlane with their old PS accounts and enable basic visibility for their characters so that I can read their descriptions.

You might be an oldbie if out of all the posters in this thread, only the registration dates of Talad (1/3/2002), Annah (2/17/2002), jorrit (4/4/2002), Izzy*dot (5/8/2002), Nadius (5/24/2003), Sifright (6/15/2003), Mindari (7/15/2003), Xordan (8/18/2003), KalTorak (11/13/2003), and fireofsoul (11/21/2003) predate your own.

You know you are an oldbie when you nearly fall out of your rocking chair at the sight or mention of some people.

*falls out the chair*
