Trying fl again


KrazyC

Recommended Posts

I have not been to FL for a while now (at least a year and a half) and decided to come check it out again. I noticed alot of changes around here, but it all seems for the better. So what exactly happened with all the old imms? And are there any old vets that can remember kicking my arse across the forsakenlands?? I had a blast when I used to play. It wasn't what you call a "successful" career(my pk stats were something like 50-300), but I liked the roleplaying and the challenge of not getting pk'ed before I could re-equip into something that resembled armor.:D Anyways, just a friendly hello to all and hope to meet ya in the game.

Thanks guys, but my friends don't like this game. I've tried to explain it to some of them, and "a text-based role-playing game" isn't cool I guess, compared to Halo and Fight Night... I know once they did play and got the hang of it they would be addicted, cuz damn was I ever when I used to play.

Halo compared to this no contest

er... no contest for which one? :)

No, seriously, forsakenlands has the most replayability than any game out there.... I must have amassed over 1000 hours on just my main characters, not to mention those chars that you think about making, roll them for hours, get them up to lvl 25 or so, train them, then get your a** handed to you time after time, then.... delete delete.... damn I can't even remember how many times I did that. So this time around I shall have a bit more patience and try to learn everything I can.

Well nice to meet ya anyways MeleeCrazy. My time in FL was always sporadic, I'd play for a few months then leave for a while, then come back and play for a week straight then leave for a month. I'll try to pace myself this time.

Viri leaving shook everyone up, of course. But with solid IMPage in place of Rathe (to whom Viri turned over the MUD), Mircea, Kalug, we soldiered on.

Then it was mutually decided amongst themselves that the run was over and real life concerns and weightier matters needed to take precedent for them (and rightly so in my opinion) and that they were closing the MUD. That was around Feb 2005, if my memory serves. More people left then.

Rather than let it go, Behrens and I had the same good idea about the same time as Malchaeius and Caimor and we got together and pitched it to Rathe and Viri. They agreed to turn the reins over to Behrens and here we are a year later, still going strong. There were some rougher patches and some bruised egos among some of the players and some less than desirables who needed to escorted to the door, but it's a great thing to see so many vets back today. And of course, my thanks goes to those who stuck with us through it all. You helped us keep the doors open and the blood flowing.

FL being taken down.....a dark day indeed. I remember it well, but I knew that someone, somewhere, somehow would bring it back. I haven't ever really shown my appreciation to the new staff for doing just that...so THANKS all of you, I mean it. I've seen FL go through a lot and honestly I think it's better than it's ever been. Keep up the good work. You guys put up with a lot of sh!t and you get mad props from me for bearing through it.

And props for this new forum as well. really well done.

Wow, I think I see some irony in that. All of you trying to save the world IRL, while everyone here wants to save the world in-game. My thanks to all of you who worked so hard to keep in going, as this game has saved me from countless hours of boredom.

Thank you Thank you Thank you.... so much.

Bastard just took everything I was going to say. Nah but seriously thank you all for bringing it back. I remember it like it was yesterday looking up the old fl page and seeing that white screen with all the text( I hate black on white) saying that fl was down thanks to all the bitching and complaining ect. ect. Thanks, Azraeth. I was uber pissed. But it wasn't long before it was back up and running not even a day or two I think, and yes today fl is better than it has ever been for three long hard fl playing years. Imms rock, no matter who they are. And yes, I say that to all the death gods

I remember at one point when I was playing FL nonstop a few years ago, on the FL web page that kept track of the most active characters (hours played for that month or something) ... I had #1 *and* #2 ... that was when I realized I was playing a bit much :P Then things RL happened, and a certain happening with a certain thief and a certain IMM (no one that's still around) made me delete my chars and vow to never play FL again. And ... here I am ;P

The two chars were Sinavestos (avian Savant bmg) and Futago (I think ... werebeast ranger ... was awhile ago :P ).

edit: actually the second character might've been Desth (mino zerker) ... my memory's not so great nowadays :P And yes, there is a lvl 15 char named Desth atm, I just made him 'cause I couldn't remember what ranger skills there were ... haven't gotten around to deleting him yet.
