I used to be a pretty hard-core Ultima Online player, in fact I was even a GM on a shard over the summer (The Elder Days) until our bastard host decided to pull the plug cause we were eating up a lot more of his bandwidth than was proper.

[Kendaro]

Nightbird,

the Kendaro must say that that is a fine mark you have for yourself. Tis quite the image. Looks greatly like a strong Nolthrir hunter. The Kendaro can almost see what looks like even gills on the sid of the neck. Is this your intention to look like Nolthrir and did you find this image somewhere or its is done by yourself?

EverQuest(2 years)

Will play again once i get a new PC... its shitty but i sortta have an affinaty for it. was second in command in 2 guilds and became leader of the second guild after the leader had to quit EQ for personal reasons, both guilds collapesed due to leaders going missing, both for the Knights of teh Abyss, and union of mastery (union fell apart since i wasnt able to play EQ 4 weeks after the guilds formation (and i still cant play it), and the old leader never transfered teh control over to me . RIP Union of mastery- you where a great lot of guys... might meet you again one day

UltimaOnline(3 years)

First MMORPG i played
Was accepted as a councelor, but never got my confirmation application sent, so they ditched me, i had no fax at the time. Was leader of 2 roleplaying pirate guilds one on Europa and the other on Oceania. Fun times they where too but never realy got to do the great things i had always planned. Also belonged to teh Knights of Virtue on Europa... i believe teh guild is still around?... great bunch of guys... HEY loki!... want to go do that 5th level treasure map i got in teh bank... well i hope i still have it .... i wonder if hes still on my ICQ list

Dark Ages(7 days)

Played for the free weeks registration, got to be a 13th lvl rogue ^^, traps where cool ^^... but that game blows chunks, Nexon what where you thinking...

Elemental Saga(a few days, BETA)

another nexon game, Nexons games sux... there all teh same basicly and tend to be on teh crappy gameplay side. No fun at all... although there network engine is quite nice. Smashing the same damn monster over adn over again to get exp ... AHCK its EQ but worse!...

RS(30 minutes?, including download time)

Installed it and i couldnt get on the server... it said it was over crowded or something... i promptly hit \"un-install\". still cant get teh smell of shit off my hard drive.

Xenomus(a week)

interesting little game, looks semi-ok i guess...nice music ^^. But teh controls, gameplay and Network code all stink to high heaven... Still have the music on a cd some where ^^... even though the game is LONG gone.


Well ive tried to get into many Betas, Anarchy Online, Atriarch, Jumpgate... but I think my damn geographical location puts me on teh bottom of the list... I tend to lie about my PC spec\'s to though ^^... but how would they know.

While my experiance is small... Ive read and followed alot of MMORPGs over the years... Horizons being the latest and the last (its gotten suck now) I  sortta consider my self an informant about MMORPGs and what can make them great and what doesnt (hence the reason im also making my own).

Stay tuned for Info in the not to distant future about \"Legends of Eden\", bah so teh name stinks... but its only a working name, an MMORPG with spunk.

Unfortunatly Kendaro, I did not draw my sig image, it\'s from a Magic: The Gathering card (Elven Ranger; Alliances Set). And I thought the Nolthrir lived underwater and had green skin. Actually it was meant to be more like the other Elf race, the Dermorians, aside from the obviously conflicting hair color, oh well, best I could come up with.

Holy crapola!  A new person who can spell!!!  
Seriously though, about the whole mmorpg experience, from what I\'ve seen in playing Everquest, that game did a great many things mostly right - - but with a chunk dead wrong.  Sorta spoiled the experience (btw, if you play Eq, do NOT play a Barabarian Warrior Smith/Tailor .....geez, its like almost impossible to get anywhere...).   Eq, while fun at times, also, at least for me, contained large helpings of frustration.  I have spent as long as four hours, some of it with help, trying to recover dead bodies....before giving up.  I have purposely drowned myself to escape a water trap after swimming around for 2 hours +.......
Developers:  DO NOT PUT ZONES IN THE MIDDLE OF DARK WINDY TWISTY TUNNELS!!   That was definately one of Eq\'s retarded features - I could deal with zones, but I mean, come on, don\'t put half of em some place where your libel to wonder back and forth ACROSS the fr**** zone....  It\'s not just me either, I\'d often seen new players stuck in a cavern, because they hadn\'t learned the art of walking backwards yet...or the gama controls.  Anyway, another good idea:  when you have a big old oil lamp, you should always be able to see your feet, except maybe HEAVY fog or smoke....unlike Eq, where half the time, you\'d be someplace that was %100 absorbent to light.  Just eliminate the little retarded things that game did, or in this case, heh, just don\'t put them in inthe first place, and PS will not become POS, but will be a truly great game.  There...
