The Lago Doth Lurk

[Backup Lago 320]

Hi guys,

 

Figured I'd stick my head in and see how everything's going around here.

 

For those that don't know me, my name on the server's Lago, I was a senior LM for a couple of years. Made a fair chunk of server lore and event chains in that time and did a lot of behind the scenes work with as well. A few rule changes I was secretly the architect of (even if they didn't end up exactly as I planned :( ) I'm probably best known for being the player behind golems, being both the creator of their lore and for the majority of my time on the server unofficially in charge of them OOC.

 

Also got waaaay too involved in OOC "politics" far beyond an LM's mandate and eventually burned out at a result. My recommendation: don't do that. Once you get too far into the OOC cogs of the server, once you get stuck into the mindset of trying to "fix" it it dominates your perception and sucks all the fun out of actually playing the game. For me it ultimately caused me to see almost every war claim or raid as a front for players bullying each other and using the less combat oriented players as "punchbags". Ultimately flipped out over some completely legitimate conflict RP I wasn't even involved in (sorry, Burk!) and quit.

 

You also may be wondering why I'm posting this on my recovered ancient account that got lost in the Great LotC Password Glitch Of I Actually Don't Remember The Details Of 2011 that's only got two posts on it as opposed to the one with over 5000? I kinda, well... um... irreversibly locked myself out of it. You know it is with keys.

 

As for why the name? That's what this account was called. Why don't I change it? I can't. Apparently you need five posts to do that.

 

So back on point, how's it going around here nowadays? I left just as the reborn Undead were coming out and am completely out of the loop. Also figured I'd say hi.

Currently sticking my head 'round the door to see how things are going.

LMs miss you. Aengudaemonic shenanigans are afoot, being worked out among the GMs and LMs for questlines. Villain Blacklist is up as an alternative to VAs; you give really bad villain RP, you get blacklisted from it. Alan got a boyfriend that surprisingly isn't all into nature (he's going to convert him, I know it). Different people on all staff teams with some new peeps and some goodbyes. Your cult is still flourishing and Rabbit Worship has been at an all time high. Heero did the diddly. And did I say the LMs miss you? Because they do. _{Like me :c}

 

Edit: LMs* Not ETs.

I still miss you.

Lore is rampant, we now have flying castles and beards that act like radios and worm holes?! 0.o Your worst nightmare happened lago, we did it, the dwarfs finally learnt something!

[Backup Lago 320]

I still miss you.

 

Is that a red tag I see?

You left before Cappy was an ADMIN!?

 

Then many things happened I guess. Viper left, Kai is not admin anymore, Cappy was made admin.

 

Also, we all miss you, we're only 4 LMs that aren't GMs now :(

You left before Cappy was an ADMIN!?

 

Did you not notice? :P

Well, you've been gone for a long time then. Welcome back Lago, though I have only spoken personally to you a few times I am glad that you are back within the community. 

[501warhead 1796]

I call your lie you fiend!

 

Also, the way you left was rather extreme. I mean leaving is one thing, murdering every account you own violently is like... bravo!

[Backup Lago 320]

Doesn't harm the server though.
