How I spent the final hours

You might have spent it in Freeport shouting to save the game. You might have spent it spawning a final dragon before the servers went black for good. How did I spend it? Not on my level 60′s. Not on toons that I had spent hours perfecting. No, I spent my last hours training the absolutely shit out of some people north of Freeport.

Rallos Zek was there and people showed up in droves to take him down. In all honesty, I initially cared. We brought him down to his knees but things fell apart once he healed. Just then, my roommate walked into the room and the whole night would go down in infamy. I logged on to a 33 shaman named Corrigan. He logged on to a 31 rogue named Oriose. We proceeded to kill 74 other players over the course of 2 hours. As big of an asshole that might make me, it was one of the most fun nights I have ever had on the game.

Sincerest apologies to the people that were victims, but in my asshole defense, you were all there for the nostalgia. What’s more nostalgic than getting trained? It was glorious and it felt like 2003. I was proud of my work and I was proud of the angry tells I received from various other players such as Nahart.

I’ll miss the game but I am pretty satisfied about going out with a bang. A train bang. Which sounds like something you’d find on a smut site.

EFFECTIVE MARCH 29, 2012

EQOA’s main website will also be shutting down. Thus their forums are going out. Does anyone have a forum site or a guild forum site that you want people to know about? Please post it in the comments.

Zat is throwing spawn parties with gifts

Throughout the next few weeks, Zat will be hosting parties in FP. I haven’t gone to one and  probably won’t because the whole idea is a bit ridiculous. Why add items to the game now? What good are gifts on March 28th if in a few days, it’ll all get wiped anyway?

This is similar to when a guy has been banging his girlfriend’s best friend, tells the girl, breaks up with her, and then promises her they’re still going to be friends. Is that the best analogy? No, but I feel like SOE is trying to part on good enough terms that I’ll buy their products in the future. Thus my reply to Zat’s invites to these gift giving parties is simply: Thank you, but what good does it do me on April 1st?

I’m back on EQOA

Look me up on the following characters: Stonee, Stoneb, or Ofir. The population is pretty depressing and it looks as if the original push to save the game has faded.
