I'm Free!

Sounds like a VFW.

200 minutes. I remember logging out after each line just to conserve minutes. What a major pain in the ass that was.

Those were the "notepad days"!!!

Hanging around online waiting for your mins to pop in and then that mass influx of activity for the first 40 mins. Goodtimes, goodtimes.

Or.... those rare times that you had a major event happening and run out of minutes right at that crucial moment......

11 hours - the time it took me to start reminiscing (though I have been drinking).

You should see East Kol now. Last time I had a character go through there, there was one person, and I think they were looting the place. Such sad times.

Yup.

It does make me a little sad to remember my old characters and the old towns, mostly the characters that they interacted with. I have a strong curiosity to see some of those places again but for the most part it hasn't been in the cards for any of my new ones yet.

if you swing by the irc when i'm there, i'll chat you up. i'm talkative.

[masterekat]

Shepherd now? Alright...from here on out, I'm calling you Book.

[Vega]

Wait... is this the same IRC that I pop into occasionally? I have never seen anyone actually chat in there. A long list of Idlers, no one talking.

Ditto.

That should be because I was not there!
(But yep, my life is boring...)

Great work, thanks for the endless amounts of time you put in to make this game what it is.

[Mr. Bones]

Come on Doug, you have another ten years left in you.

[the_antisocial_hermit]

200 minutes, notepad, logging out to back the page up to read events... ah, golden days.

[raspberrytea]

Congratulations and thank you for all those years and hours. :)

I always hated it when I would forget to close the browser and log back in and click events instead. I'd always end up wasting 15 or 20 minutes.

[EchoMan]

Thank you for all your hard work Doug, we will miss having you on staff.

And IRC isn't necessarily an instant chat room, it is a great way for someone to log in and ask questions, and get a somewhat fast reply. Doing as BC and log in and say "you're all quiet" and immediately log off is just ... weird.

The IRC is a great tool if you know what to expect from it.

Actually, I log on and the first thing that I do is say "Hi" or "Hey" or some such greeting. And never have I ever gotten any response in return. So... I generally would not continue on with much more conversation at that point, let alone ask a question to a silent list of names. If you think that is weird then.. well.. I'm weird, I guess
