When did I start....

I was born on a drunken night after an epic poker game..... My buddy swore up and down this game was awesome, the real cash part confused a lot of people at the table that night, but I was still interested in what it had to offer....
The Game loaded, a HORRENDOUS sound boomed over the speakers, and I was dead at a revival at Serpentine Village on Next Island. The area was "bugged", surrounded by boars and pappoo. I would revive only to be slain a moment later at the revive. I don't like to give up.... I came up with the strategy for other games to run the mobs away from the revive in one direction to clear the area a bit. I spent a good amount of time running mobs away, and dying. Some times it would work, sometimes it would erase all I had tried to do, since it was all a bit laggy. He swore there was a Teleporter on an island, I just had to make it there....
About 2 hours had passed, I had made it close to the island with the invisible TP once. I was soooooo close to just giving up, and uninstalling the game.... I was able to run the mobs away, clearing the path, and dying far away. It looked like a really great run. I made it about half way, and a grey papoo spawned in my path, started screaming at me, and landing every hit. I made it to the bridge, on top of the invisible platform, I could not find where to access the TP, and died on top of it.... kind of hovering in space, as it looked. I was PISSED!!!!! finially made it just to get smashed by a screaming monkey.
Right as I was about to log out, someone teleported in, killed the pappoo, and told me to hang on. I was able to revive, and get to a safe TP. I hunted my friends list for his name, but cant seem to find it. If I can, I will edit it in. Since he rescued me, I had an attachment to that area. I would check there several times a day, and help rescue trapped new players. Once I was skilled enough, I would rescue them myself. My first two globals were on mountain boars while rescuing players.
After joining Next Island Noobs, things were good. until..... the planet partner gave up, killed off the economy, and we were forced to leave. Arkadia was my new home, and the Society voted me to lead a new one, called Benevolence. I have always tried to help others in this game as others had helped me when I started. Many great people came, and unfortunately left. But... the memories from the fun times we had are good ones.
Thanks again for rescuing me, and allowing me to pass along the favor
