Felicitations .... n'all that!

Hi, I'm new *takes a bow*. Can't say i've played much yet but am on the Starter island getting used to the system. I know the mainland is the place to be but its all very new and will take me a while to move over there. I've heard all praise and criticism for the game and have to say i'm excited by what i've heard. Despite many complaints it does seem to offer what a lot of MMORPG's lack .... originality and a very strong community. Course its a bit early for me to know for sure what its going to be like being all inexperienced n'all. I have played just about every MMORPG on the market at one time or another though and have to say in recent times i've become very fed up with the industry as a whole with a few exceptions.

I'm more of an explorer of game worlds. I do like to fight of course and levelling is fun but I'd hardly call myself a powergamer ;) Think the highest level I ever attained in a game was 17 in EQ (and i played that for about 2 yrs lol). A lot of the time I spend wandering around areas I'd considered home helping new players who didn't know there way around. I do like to solo a lot but that tends to be because I don't like the powergaming side of things. Also because I like to play with the more mature player who can go a full sentance without saying "dude", "awesome" or "gay" and that can be a long and difficult search.

Anyway glad to be here and hope I have found a home.....

Still a bit lost to as where I am but I'm playing a Matis called Giltharian (my initial character was a Fyros called Ulfang but decided I wanted a character that looked good lol). I'll keep an eye out for you!

Haha... well I'm sure that Spriteh loves you now :p (poor him, he considers himself like a good looking Fyros.. then again I'm sure he could be much worse if he tried :p ).
