A Look Back

[Watyll 1104]

Most of the people on this list are gone now. Out of about fifty people, I believe only myself, gunnerdude, and maybe jibtherandom are left. It's honestly kind of depressing.

 

For those who don't remember this post, Skyyobee made a topic about a LotC time capsule back in 2012. Users posted information and such on the topic and it was placed in the time capsule for future LotCers to look at, one year later. It was eventually opened, but I think it deserves another look back. If those of you who posted in here see this, we miss you. For those who didn't post on this topic, have a look through and examine a better time on the server. One with less drama and more roleplay. 

 

Shadowoking.

 

JtPv - One of the few people that seemed to genuinely enjoy the Daldriad group I made. I still remember how he got banned the first day of Anthos, and was unbanned the next week. A lot of laughs were had. I miss him.

 

Oskar - What a troll. Great guy.

 

Shuness

 

WizardInABox - I wonder if he ever became a doctor. He's gone now.

 

spartansoldier8

 

ShadowGunX - The inventor of shade magic. I don't know what eventually happened with the cancer on his neck. I hope he got better.

 

Sckolar

 

Runehunter1212

 

Geoboy66 - The creator of the greatest villain character ever seen on Lotc, the Perfectionist, and the longest serving leader of the Kharajyr race. When I met him he was just another player, but he eventually rose to become a GM. 

 

Bethgod7

 

Gunnerdude - One of the few people still around. I used to confuse you with Esterlen a lot.

 

Archmage_Cataris - The possessor of probably the largest temper on the server. Besides that, a great leader, writer, and roleplayer. Was counted as one of the three great mages, alongside Sagwort and Blundermore.

 

Spamshok - He never liked me very much. I liked him, though. I was very grateful to him for letting me in the Frozen Thorns.

 

PtahWithin - The most levelheaded person to enter LotC, and the owner of an absolutely massive collection of reaction gifs rivalling that of Gaius. I only wish I could have gotten to know him better.

 

Salamandra - I annoyed him a lot, in my early days. A fantastic roleplayer, only focused on fun. I don't think he ever did restart the Gobonic Order.

 

HylianMuffin - Hilarious FM. Only vets will remember the sloth lord.

 

Tigergamer

 

Evilbanana5757

 

Jchizz - A fantastic roleplayer and fun guy to be around. I spent many an hour on Frozen Thorn missions with him, or just messing about in the skype chat. I miss him. If only his prediction for the future of the server was true.

 

Escharian - One of the best skinners on LotC, and probably the most memorable CT monk.

 

jibtherandom - I think you're still around.

 

DBHAShadow

 

SkyyoBee

 

Monkey34512 - What a noob. I miss him.

 

Pudclud - He's right about Tythus.

 

everblue2er101 - The LotC member who probably gave the most. He served on more staff teams than I can remember. A great LM and friend. I hope he's having a good time, wherever he is.

 

watyll - My own addition. I've matured a lot since then, became more cynical. I did eventually reach my goal and became an LM. 

 

FalconByte

 

Whoppering

 

Amayanina

 

THUNDER37

 

snakeyeeees

 

hexbug99

 

Twiddlepop - My british mail order bride. She's long gone, haven't seen her since Asulon.

 

Huurk

 

tuarzen007 - I think I had huge arguments with this guy. Not positive. Still a great guy.

 

megacomet79 - One of my two closest irl friends, and the smartest person I've ever met. He probably won't see this, as he's long gone. I'll link it to him on skype, probably. He was one of the early pioneers of the Event Team. I'm sure he would be pleased to see how far it has progressed. I don't see him IRL anymore, since I moved, and I don't see him on the server. I miss you.

 

BadPumkin987

 

Conordude8

 

Pengepi - You introduced me to /r/tumblrinaction and made me lose my last faith in humanity. You're still awesome.

I don't know why I posted this. I don't know if anybody else will even look at it or care. I just miss the loving community we used to have. Maybe I'm just looking through nostalgia glasses though, idk. For those of you who are nostalgic like me, come reminisce.

I tend to wear my rose-tinted glasses an awful lot lately...

[MetaSolaray 242]

What a delightful read, ;o pity I missed this I think I came the year afterwards.

[Dromui 755]

You know, I was here for this. Shame I didn't throw my own thoughts in.

You really should have.

[The Womping Wizard 400]

Neat post! Looks like I missed out on this too. Rats.

Whoa, Zane. Didn't know you were even still around.

[Lark 2227]

[Watyll 1104]

Sad. But watyll-san, why didn't I get a mention? ;(

This is people that posted in the Time Capsule thread, you absolute pleb. You weren't even around then.

[Elfen_ 232]

I didn't post for that either. I been here since 2011.

[Space 2335]

coolio

[Shadeleaf 1022]

This made me think way too much. Good god the nostalgia and bitter sweet memories that come along with this. I want to thank those who left something behind, it definitely brings where we currently are into perspective.

 

Honestly though a lot of this made me near teary eyed, all of those friends gone with the wind.

[CosmicWhaleShark 2488]

Judging by the character names, as far as placing them in their era, this certainly was not a time of less drama on the server. Different drama, but definitely not less.

 

Kind of puts things into perspective when people view it as 'lesser' looking back. Maybe it's because they were less involved, maybe it's because it doesn't actually matter and they finally forgot.

 

Puts things into perspective though when people get up in arms about things, pull dirty tricks and the like. The experience is what is remembered, so you may as well just go with it, and make it a good one. Food for thought, considering recent things I've seen, like literally last night.

Cosmic has become the wise old man of LotC
