Amazing isn't it how time seems to fly so fast when your not blogging.... it hardly feels like its been four days since I last posted on here, but I suppose it has. I guess the real question is what to talk about....
I suppose this will do:
Role Playing is a past time that is one that I hold dear to my heart. I first got started on the grand past time when I was.... I think 13. Now back at that age I was something of a social outcast, still am for the most part.
At the time I didn't really have much of what most people would call "friends", the closest being someone who usually made me watch him play whatever video game was of interest to him at the time... had I wanted to play it, five minutes later it was "This is boring, lets do what I want to do".... often times that meant that he wanted to play something he could beat me at. Some friend eh?
One can guess this is why I whole heartedly embraced online Role-play chats. I fondly remember my first one.... the "Star Wars vs. Star Trek Chat room on the Wildman Website" Much fun was had within those digital walls.... Star Destroyers, Federation ships Duking it out.... Storm troopers vs. Red Shirts... much fun... Much fun indeed, However the best things never seem to last, and eventually that chat folded, so I, along with many other vs. vets moved over to the Cantina. ((odd how my spell check doesn't recognize that ))
Many a fun year has been spent there... quite the contradiction in terms, considering that seems to have become the new vs. chat... thanks to our local "Route of Ages" pretty much anything is allowed... Set mainly in the Mos Eisley Cantina (the Tina for short) We experience anything from the resident Star Wars... to a noticeable (thanks to our local Trekkie King Zon) Federation presence... Vampires of several sorts, Hunters of such undead, be they Buffyesqe slayers, or whoever decides to play Blade these days... Zombies, Peacekeepers (of Farscape Fame) Cylons, Wraith, and various other player created factions.
Sound insane? yeah it is. Sound stupid? won't deny that either, but then again... I have killed much time there, sometimes I ponder leaving, as many of us do, only very rarely do one of us succeed. One of the main reasons I think about leaving is... frankly I have a real life... as pathetic as it is, I have one. This means that I am not always around to keep up with whatever angst a certain player is experiencing at the moment *shifty eyes* or whatever plot line is central to the majority of the characters actions.
To put it one way I have something of a recurring joke... a demon named VERXOG THE DESTRUCTOR, is sitting in the lobby waiting for his turn at the apocolypse holding ticket number.... hell I can't recall his ticket number, suffice to say its well above 900,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 and the "Now Serving" counter seems to be at around 92.... so yeah he's gonna be there a while... and should his turn ever be reached, the good guys will prolly defeat him in about 15.3225 seconds,
I have had good times in this place.... as well as bad times. I suppose thats what I get for playing along with such an enviroment for so long, I would like some friends I can talk to in the real world, even if they are the social outcasts of society... Sadly as far as I can tell even most of the local D&D crowds shun me.
Thats kinda sad really.............
