How about meeting up at the "Aradune is stinky" graffiti in the Qeynos sewers :P
Just saw this. Should we make one gathering somewhere more Evil friendly? I'd like to have everything set in stone by tonight so people know where to go.

I thought Brad originally was a Paladin in EQ, no? I know he was repping Ranger in Pantheon though.
Found a post from the man himself:

https://www.pantheonmmo.com/content/.../post_id/17981

From the post:

Quote:
Why did Aradune the Ranger in EQ wield a two-handed flaming sword called the Fiery Avenger. Well, the first weapon we successfully attached particle effects to was that two-handed sword. And I of course wanted to show it off in screenshots. I had to make it Rangerable.
The post explains how he started off as a paladin named Aramith in various MUDs. His character's father was Aradune the ranger. Over time Brad discovered that he enjoyed playing the latter class more. So he became Aradune the ranger.

This is the minimum honor deserving of Brad. Also, Aradune was actually a Ranger, not some shitbag Paladin.

With Brad mmos never get a second chance at learning the most important aspect of the whole damn genre. The infamous abandoned policy of RISK versus REWARD.

Rip mmos, Hello dopamine drip mindless button mashing

Should do it on both servers. Same days. Same times. No confusion.

So if you're here on the forums then surely you know about the passing of Aradune.. I'm not particularly active socially on p99, but when I heard the news it hit me kind of hard, given the role that Everquest played in helping me through depression in my early teens around the year 2000.

I logged on tonight and shouted to the zone to get a small gathering of about 4 or 5 of us at McQuaid's in Halas to have some mead and ale and reminisce. It would be pretty cool to have a big ol' wake there and really celebrate the community that has been able to exist for so many years thanks to Brad's vision and hard work.

If anyone is more connected socially and wants to do some of the legwork, that would be awesome. I'm not sure where to start on organizing, so I'm just going to leave this here for now.
I wish I saw this earlier. So sad [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
As EQ and VG have gone down as my all time favourite games
And I have been following Pantheon forever.
Sorry for his family, so terrible to lose loved ones. And what a loss to the gaming industry, someone to trailblazer and not follow in the footsteps of everyone else. A truly great gamer, he will be missed greatly

Okay. Not sure how to edit the original post, but we've decided to have 3 gatherings:

9PM EST Friday 11/22 - Halas - McQuaid's Bar and Stout
9PM EST Saturday 11/22 - Freeport - around The Hall of Truth
9PM EST Sunday 11/22 - GFay - PoD Lift

It would be nice to just get together, reminisce and nostalgize, talk about Pantheon, and whatever else to pay respect to Aradune. Please spread the word and pass this on!

Hey there. Yeah, you can't edit posts after half an hour. It looks like you accidentally put 11/22 for all three, so I adjusted them in the above quote. I have passed the word along to <Castle>.

Here's hoping participants are on good behavior.
