I was reminded of one of my old characters, a nasty woman. I went through some old turn reports I saved and was reminded of many old personalities I used to play.

Also remember how sad my character was when yours died, Henkie. Nederheuvel was the best Dutch town there was, it's a shame I ended that by moving everyone to the unknown. But the Dutch section had gotten awful with all the OOC cheating in the other towns. Powergaming's what it was, with a new CRB every other day. Hopefully those people (or that influential person, rather) quit now.

Might start a second character in the Dutch lands! Is it any good now?

And the first month of my return (around 15 months back now) was charactarized by nostalgic feelings for the old times.. I still regret letting my chars fade but RL took a spin for me, so I had no choice :(

The dutch are scattered and low in number. The old dutch/spanish island is still populated, the heart of former CRBing is now populated by a staggering 3 dutch chars, but two are very active. The same on other places, a couple active players who mostly have English chars to boast said activity, and "do dutch" on the side, including myself.

I can say the group from back then is no longer playing, only Jens Grootman remains, I am sure you met him. He was always against the violence.

Welcome back, Wiro! I can't say anything about previous times, but I'm quite enjoying the dutch char's I play :)

Well, after a 4 or 5 year hiatus I decided to have my account reactivated. Created two characters and I'm back in the game.
Beatings will continue until morale improves!!

I don't remember anything. I just write "Welcome!" randomly in here now and then for social skill points. :)

so my one character has been going strong, trying to be a productive member of society.

a shame I didn't spawn in a warzone and get handed a battleaxe and told to swing at the enemy. That was the start of my third favorite character.

I'm back after an 7 year or so hiatus. Lots of new stuff to learn, and hat used to be a familiar place appears almost unrecognizable.
