Fed up.

There have probably been blog posts similar to this but I am going to rant about this anyway.

What is with all these people, in game and IRL, telling you “Oh, why are you always playing games? You’re SUCH a loser. Get a life. etc.” Its annoying, and I’ve been told so many times that I have to vent. So what if I’m always playing some MMO, wasting my life away at the computer. First of all, it isn’t their business what you do. Second of all, there’s nothing wrong with playing MS for 8 hours straight! (except for major headaches). I’ll admit, sometimes I turn down an outing, just because my guild is planning on GPQing, or just because I want to level up. I spend most Friday nights online, and sometimes Saturdays too. I HAVE NO LIFE, according to the general public. But what’s important is, I have fun! I have fun having no life, and if it makes me happy, leave me alone. **** everyone who thinks you should be hanging around the mall or at a party every night because its boring. read more

Kradian people suck

Duuuude. Everyone on my buddylist I met when I was about level 20. Now they’re all level 50 and Im still level 40!

I’m not one of those people who play like, twice I week. I log on daily and play for an average of 2 hours; most of that time is spent training (well, PQing). How do people do it? They level like maniacs, every single person on my buddylist is like that. read more

KPQ is frustrating.

There are so many ten year olds running around on this game, and they are all in the KPQ area. People are so frustrating I can barely stand it! I can’t wait till I get to level 35 and is able to LPQ because the level of intelligence of my fellow PQers is unbearably low.

I hate being a noob.

On the other hand, I got NX! I bought a measly 10k and EXPed my hair, luckily I got a rare EXP only hairstyle instead of a afro or something gross like that. Aaaaand, I discovered the world of private servers! :0 Apparently my friend is making one and soon beta will come out and I will be able to experience gameplay on a HawkMS. Those private servers involve a whole bunch of coding and programming stuffs, and will probably have a lot of glitches. It takes a real maple expert to navigate around those things. I’m extremely excited even though I’ll have no idea what I’m doing and will wander around like a lost puppy. read more

Tensions arise

The competitive nature has gotten to us all. I’m pretty sure its not just me now, its every one of us. I got angry when my friend didn’t congratulate me on leveling up, and when she went AFK and started leeching off my EXP, I CCed. I usually do not do this, but I was so short tempered today! I didn’t have any outbursts but inside I was writhing with annoyance. My friend who’s with me all the time is being so.. jerky. I know thats not really a word but I can’t describe it any other way! Urgh, I’m so mad for having such bad feelings, when I should be happy. I feel gross. No one called me my righteous name today. StellaStellaStellaStellaStellaStella. For all my friends who are reading this, its Stella. read more

Problems already

Well, I got to level 14 after today, which is kind of unsatisfying since I was aiming for 15. During training I was talking to my other friend, Jamie, who was getting trained by a higher level friend. Suddenly, I felt jealous, and I didn’t like that feeling. The thing about MS is, its childish. The scenery, the font, the monsters; its all very childish and it brings out the kid in me. For some people, thats good, but not for me. I was a HORRID kid, always picking fights, yelling, and throwing tantrums, so when she was getting trained, I envied her. I’m really ashamed of myself because, thats not how its supposed to be, I started over not to level up, but to make friends, be nicer than I was in Bellocan. I kind of feel like I’m going the opposite way that I planned and its disappointing. Hopefully I will lose my competitive nature, because after all, its just a game. But if you know me, its hard, I’m a jealous, sometimes bitchy, and cold person. Hopefully as the Kradia experience goes on this will fade. T_T read more

First day in Kradia!

Some more good things happened and me and my four friends finally settled on which server we were going to. To describe events easier, I shall list their names. Hannah, Jamie, Monica, and Me (Steph). Hannah wanted to create our characters in Khaini, because some of our high school friends played there; on the other hand me and Jamie wanted to go to the less crowded Kradia. Monica was undecided XD. Finally after some bantering, I won the battle and got to go to Kradia. Im not sure what to make of it yet because I was only on two hours (I only play two hours on weekdays) but so far I like it, not too over populated and only one person KSed me. Another good thing is my oldest friend from Bellocan, called Chiko, joined us today when we started our nibs! Im glad she came, she makes things a lot livelier. read more

First blog, its gonna be long

I’m turning over a new leaf in MS. I’m on a quest to make this dearly beloved game interesting again.

For the past 14 months I’ve been working a level 90 Ranger in Bellocan. When I first started out, I started with three other IRL friends. I had run across the game randomly, and had no experience whatsoever playing MMORPGs. All we knew was we wanted one character from each class in our tiny group of four. As we progressed we started learning about the complex system of the game. We learned that our stats were messed up, and many of us had to restart a few times. We learned about guilds, and yearned to be in them. After drifting through many quiet, noob guilds; we finally landed in Ruins. Ruins will always be in my mind, it brings me back to a better time. Everyone had so much fun in there, it was almost a miracle that all these different people I liked so much could all be in one place. The guilds I had been in were primitive compared to Ruins. I grew with them, but soon outgrew them. Sometime around level 50-60 Ruins went through its first breakup. We started to notice that many of our players had become inactive, and some of them had quit. Two of these people were the original four I started out with. As our guild began falling apart, one of our members tried to reunite us under a new name, but unfortunately he wasn’t a good leader. In addition to this, there was another guild that branched off of the dead Ruins called Wind. Me and him had many disputes and finally, I left the new Ruins (then called [N]orthernLites). I drifted around from guild to guild, back like when I was level 20. For sometime, I was in a guild of a close friend’s called YouCantJoin. I was really meaning to stay there till the leaders took a break from MS, and things were lonely again. I found myself in MapleSyrup, and I was so pleased that I was on the top ranked GPQ guild, that I stayed for a while. But I noticed that I couldn’t easily converse with the members, they were all age 20+! But by that time, the leaders of YouCantJoin had come back from their break, and I joined again. Soon NorthernLites and Wind would disband to become YouCantJoin. I was overjoyed when this happened, all my favorite people back in one place! Everyone was overjoyed at this reunion, and invited all the people that weren’t originally in Ruins into our family. Our guild was massive, totaling at about 60 people. Things were finally back to normal. read more
