my two pennies worth

Greetings and salutations

I go by many names but you can call me Bulbous.

The year was 1997 and I was sitting in my cellar apartment clicking the dial-up icon... yes playing uo on 33k modem was a challenge.

I started playing on SP because thats what hardcore players do! Too bad I wasnt one of them. I must have bled most of all, I even think cannon fodder got a whole new meaning. So yes I suck at PvP and I played at SP for years.

I joined a guild and we were outlaws! I think I was the only blue outlaw... Maybe I should have turned red... maybe then I could atleast scare someone, someone like me ;)
Anyhow we all kinda suck, I remember how 2 reds came and wiped us all (atleast 5) in front of the GH. But then again playing on a 33k modem wasnt that great, hard to keep up with the dsl'ers.

Like som many before me has mentioned there was a great society back in the days, there was always something to do and you got many friends and I mean friends not just an acquaintance.
I logged on for the first time in ages a couple of days ago, and there was a former guildmate. weird.

I created my second account in -99 and still have both of them.

So can I contribute to your society ?  Maybe, Im not a great scripter I just tweak the ones I use to fit me better. But Im willing to learn.

When I was 14-15 I sat infront of my C64 and made text rpgs in basic, not really the same but cheers!

sincerely The great Bulbous!


just remembered I payed 640$ a month on phonebills and my US friends went to bed and when they woke up I was still online! Good times

ok ok you got me, The Mediocre Bulous!


PS  I dont have 33k dial-up anymore ;)
