Hey all, I'm semi-not-really-back
Posted: Tue Jun 24, 2008 8:26 pm
I don't really know why I'm doing this. Just got hit by a wave of nostalgia, after an incident on the new gaming community I'm in. Looking back over however long it's been, I must say I've learned a lot. Matured some, too, though you people that know/knew me probably find that hard to believe.
First, I must apologize. The recent event I talked of was like looking in a mirror - from a year ago, back when I was here. I was disgusted, and even though this happened a few weeks ago, it's hitting home now. I, quite frankly, feel like I acted like an ass when I was on this server, pardon my French. I saw myself, a hot-shot pilot (as the game I play now is Freelancer) that had an ego the size of Norway, and though he was a good pilot (better than me for sure) I see now why I never made it into DW, even though I was too young. Had I been old enough, I still wouldn't have made it.
Ego, skill, yes. Those he had. He didn't have what you look for in a person that is in a clan, I believe we all know what I'm talking about. He lacked any of that... that... it's escaping my ability to convey in words. You get what I'm trying to say, I hope, and if you don't, well maybe it'll come to me later on what I'm trying to say.
Well, as I said I have matured. My ego has shrunk considerably, I am a respected member of the community I am now a part of, and have found my true love in the video game world: Role Playing, though a different brand than that of WoW or other similar RPGs. I also found the one skill that I still brag about writing. I've written several stories, sharpening my skill, to the point where I want to publish a book soon. My ego has migrated to this skill, not how well I play ONS or fly a ship in Freelancer.
Though I doubt any of you care, I feel I must provide a link to said stories I've written. They are my pride now.
This is a shout out to friends still here, friends gone, and friends passed away (sorry to hear about Weasel), and honorable mentions go to KarmaKat, ToxicWaste, Kaeolian, Joeblow (et tu, Brute? We studied Julius Caesar in English last year) other names escape me, but you all know that if I saw your name recently, you'd be on the list. Heh, I'll even throw Hornet in there, though I'm sure he doesn't like me one bit. I don't blame you for not liking my immature manifestation.
Anyways, enough ranting, I'm gonna play a few games of ONS a week, nothing else pretty much. If you see me in-game, that's great. Already met a few familiar faces, though the only DW/SVA I played was some new DW I've never met before.
See you in-game, if you still play UT2004.
