This server is providing the best gaming experience of my life!
 
Hey all,

My name is Dennis, I go by Ahmet in-game (currently level 45 enchanter). I live in NJ, 24 years old, mortgage officer, weekend-warrior basketball player and fisherman. I first played EQ when I was around 11 years old, it was pretty "classic" at that point, around the time this server is emulated in. I think I played up until Luclin, or so, but I was just young, stupid, and terrible at the game which meant I never had a toon above 20 before screwing it up somehow. Still, nothing since then has ever given me the feeling this game did back then. I've played every MMO under the sun, raided in a few, and got into the competitive Counter-Strike 1.6/Source scene for a bit too. I found this server a couple months ago (late, I know!) and I have been HOOKED. I find myself logging on and hitting my friends list immediately to try and link up with the awesome people I've met and played with. Often, not even to group, just to say whatup.

I wanted to come on here this morning to thank the awesome people that play on this server and the developers for letting me come home everyday from work and hop on to a super fun and stress-free experience. This is my absolute favorite game in existence, and it's exactly how I always wanted to play it, now that I'm (a little) more competent! I find helpful and fun people everyday, and the amount of bad apples I've encountered doesn't even hold a light to the good ones. So many people are willing to port, CR, buff, provide advice or info.. it's a great community and it's made becoming a good tipper nothing but a pleasure.

If you see me in your zone, I'm always happy to drop some *FREE* clarity, even if I'm mezzing trains for my group. I won't let them die, don't worry! Just hit me up and I got you. I'm on every night after 7pm EST for the most part and I'm game for whatever. I would love to start duoing more, but solB and CoM has been sweet thus far in the 40's too.

Thanks P99,

Dennis

I am too a returning EQ player, was just a little older than you when I played and same thing, sucked really bad never got past lvl 40 some. Now after playing all the mmo's in the world, raiding, pvp you name it, somehow i find myself playing old school EQ and loving every minute. Im a 49 Bard Ahmet, even tho most groups dont need a bard and ench i'll be around if you ever wanna group!

And yes the community here is amazing, lots of help.

Yes! This exactly. I was at a point of downloading anything I could find I hadn't heard about after burning through all the subscription options. Finding this was a "duh" moment for me. Dude, We need to group up and duo. I've had a ton of success fear kiting with bards in FV doing pirates/drolvargs. We would have a field day in OT or LOIO Bloodgills. Hit me up!

Haha yea we were rocking. I get what he means about the bard thing though, a lot of people shy away from it. I love the mana song personally when I'm the only chanter. It makes keeping a pet, keeping haste up, and mezzing chain pulls infinitely easier.

I just did 2 days of fear kiting in CoM, just pulled a group of 4-5 dps while i fear kited it was great.

Of course, look for me tonight and maybe we can get some xp!

Ahmet 07-21-2014 02:44 PM

That's funny because I tried to get an enchanter from CoM to come replace me in SolB and he said "I can't leave, there is a bard here fear kiting and the exp is insane"..

Hey Ahmet, I think I met you yesterday on my druid Sooby. I agree with you 100%! I've tried a bunch of mmo's and other games and had a really good time with a lot of them, but this amazing game that came out in 1999 keeps pulling me back like no other game ever has. There's just something about it that makes it stand out. Anyhoot, just wanted to give you a shout out. If you ever need a port or something just shoot me a tell and I'll come grab ya if I can :)
