[TOR] Welcome gretchgamer! {RC}

[Gretchen]

@Mixxi Aye, we always had the meetings a bit off from the guards as we had Iksars who would have gotten jumped.  Coriss Sunscale...a huge-hearted person indeed!  A hardcore roleplayer too, he was prone to hissing about my egggsss and it was hysterical at times

Tuvan at SF EQ Fan Faire...I wasn't there but did go to two of those, one in Chicago and again in Las Vegas, meeting Tuvan and a number of others, and people from other guilds we knew.  Also made a lie out of the idea that there were no actual girl gamers...one of the tough-as-nails ready to rumble main tanks from a top server guild turned out to be this bubbly tiny blonde girl who kept us entertained over drinks with glorious raid stories.  Priceless!  Betti Bighearted I believe might have been one of the founders of OoA, turned it over to Tuvan?  Unclear on that, but she predated my membership.  I remember Uwei!  And Thorokin...one of the most interesting, frustrating and complex characters I've ever had the pleasure of battling beside.  She was always blazing brightly.

Ha!  Now I'm getting all nostalgic...I googled and found some of the old relics of those days:

omg, it's the old Order of Antondwer boards!

I actually recovered my password on the old boards and reading those years-old posts by old familiar names is making me all misty...

Crikey!  Sauria!  For real??  (I was Uwei Oakmist on Vazaelle and pretty much there at the start of the Order of Antondwer when Betti ran it).

A big welcome from me - will need to catch up properly when I have more time!

Aye it's a strange life, is it not?  You never know when you're going to run into folks!  Randomly I knew someone who randomly was looking forward to this new Star Wars game and got me interested and then she said she was applying to this guild and the name sounded familiar...and I didn't know there were Order folks in Saga.  Open a door and be continually surprised what you find

You should totally go to the old board link and use password recovery for the new company that runs ezboards, I was able to log in and spent last night surfing the old threads, and all the old threads are there, all the posts by you and Betti and Talanye and Tuvan and everyone, it's like a museum frozen in time.  I left a public general section post just as  a mark I had been there, maybe the first new post in years.  Got a little misty...I remember you, I think Betti might have left by the time I arrived, I was guilded by Talanye when she was leader.  OMG raidleader/officer chat, I'm laughing and blushing to remember it all.

[Corsair]

The whole vibe of this thread is so familiar....very much how I feel about so many folks I will get to play with yet again here. Folks I have enjoyed gaming with off and on for years.

So glad you found Saga Gretch. As one who has never had the pleasure, I am looking forward to hear stories old and new.

hi

[Sunscale]

Hail Gretchen / Sauria and Uwei too

If you want a laugh at the hissing lizard go back to your last post on the Orders forum

http://theprotectorate9591.yuku.com/topic/3277/So-I-wonder-if-anyone-comes-here-anymore

It's f2p for me these days, I might return to EQ1 now it's just gone f2p just to walk the old paths again.

I'm glad you guys have found a home in Saga.

Coriss Sunscale, returning Iksar sSshaman

*tackles Coriss and hugs his tail*

Man, it's good to see your scaley face. You don't have to play SWTOR to hang out here, you know...

--Mixxi (was Thorni/Thela Bixiebane back in OoA)

[Sunscale]

Arghh, can sSsomeone pleaSe remove the halfling from my tailbone 

Mixxi!, I could not see it wasS you back there, the Special halfling can tail ride.  Coriss not mind friends touching tail.

If SAGA do not mind this sSScaled one will drop by here from time to time.

Well EQ1 went f2p yesterday. I cannot remember my old account info. D/L software check, start new account check, remember how bad 13 year old graphics look like check, so I rerolled Coriss as a shaman Because I'm a bit annoyed with what they've done to the mystic in EQ2, but I dunno - I think I might still hang out on AB server on EQ2.

In EQ2 Coriss is a monk (inspired by Sauria). March, a halfling ranger; Brekekekex the froglok mystic; and erm... Bogrol the ogre... (Anglophiles may find his name amusing  ).  Anyone from the Order may remember Bogrol in a role play event.  theevil ogre captured Gwendolyn somewhere in Norrath and through little clues scattered in conversation the guild had to track them down.

Ok guys I hope Saga realise what good peeps they have here!

Stay safe,clear skies, and keep your blaster handy 

Coriss Sunscale / Jase

[Mixxi]

I remember Bogrol!   

Temus, another Saga member here had his first MMORPG experience when he came to Gwen and Uwei's wedding at the Karanas bridge. He got leved by someone and then fell to his death when it gave out.

Soooo tempting to go back to Misty for old times' sake. Perhaps I'll download it just to have those nostalgic memories.
