Dear all,
Some of you here know me quite well while many probably still ignore my sole existence.
Here is my testimony :
I joined the game in 2004, almost the same day as Mc Cormick and Etopia. Yes, old names for old stories.
I took part in the first fashion show ingame in Nymphtown when there still was a catwalk there.
There were no teleporters back then, sweat caps, reached very quickly and lot of very very square pixels to make your avatar. Ugly mobs for ugly landscapes and we loved them. Because we were making it together, us and them together.
Everything was ugly and everyone or most were nice. Some people even ropleplaying ! Yes, true story !!!
That was before Project Entropia became Entropia Universe.
Things evolved, and we were all happy about that. Although many thought the rythm was way too slow compared to what was happening in the online gaming industry. Alchemic Dream was still the main French language speaking website for the community and we were having many very intense moments there. The players, Marco, Mindark. We were, somehow, all part of a whole, whitout even being aware of it.
Years passed and the game slowly became what it is now. With its scandals and abuses, Next Island and it's spoilation, Neverdie, the Asteroid, Buzz, Treasure Island, and so many other cases. It's quite amazing when we think about how many cases happened and I still find myself to be here.
Skalman left, Deathifier, left, Etopia left, Mc Cormick left, Luck left, Dreicc left, and so many others who made this game what it is today. And I can only talk from my so very little prism. So much more things happened, wonderful ones and scary ones, which I never heard of.
And still, 16 years later, I am still here.
Of course, I had my pauses, my breaks. My moments of glory and my instants of gloom.
Four years ago, I think, I decided to really come back hard into the game and decided to dedicate myself to one and only goal : win mayhems.
I invested a huge ammount of time and a lot of money.
For sure, I will not discuss figures here, because you will always be the junky of a richer man around here as much as you will always be the sugar daddy of some junky out there.
Yet, please know that I invested as much as I could, money wise and time wise, and I got support from my best friends ingame in this adventure.
I placed myself in top 5 several times until someday I started to realise that, somehow but always, people were scoring a huge ammount of points in the last two days. Always. Each mayhem, same story. No matter if I borrowed the best stuff ingame with the best pills, I was always going to be screwed one way or another.
Until last year, where I started to get bored out of this situation and started to think it over. The more I thought about it, the more I thought something was odd and I completely lost the desire to play this game.
Not only did I lose the thrill for Mayhem, but for Entropia Universe altogether.
I started touring the Universe.
Cyrene, Arkadia, Next Island, where I had my best mining runs back in the times, Toulan, Rocktropia, no, not Rocktropia, never liked it actually, Monria...several times, but still, the thrill was gone. Because no matter what I was doing, I coulnd't get idea out of my mind that something was off in this so called game.
I must admit, I am very thankful to all who took part in the exposition of this case of the yog abuse and exploit.
But mostly, rip off the other players. Because it finally allows me to put a logical explanation on what had only been feelings and impressions for years.
Yes, I lost many competitions and it was not my fault.
Yes I lost many competitions and it was because people were cheating.
It feels like I was competing in the Olympics and lost to people who were under steroids.
I feel better knowing these so called winners are actually shitbags and scumbags.
I regret only that I have spent so much of my limited lifetime to these competitions and game.
I regret that Mindark will probably never respect people like me, who feel abused, cheated, disrespected and stolen by these people.
However, I am so proud to be able to say : I am here, strong and sound, to face you, cheaters, exploiters and abusers, and the only thing you may have ever won out of this is ruining the game you probably enjoy the most.
Because the only thing you really won in there is that me and many others, probably, will leave this game, invest so much less time and money, and will let this extraordinary virtual environment fade out a little bit more in the unknown and the forgotten world wide web.
Kisses and everything,
Liu.
