Well, this is really a few weeks ago, but still...
Skam is now 3 years old ingame

Ive gone through alot in those three years. If anyone is bored, here is a bit of my history, a collection of memories and happenings.

I started because I saw my ex Gnasher play the game. It had lots of fun clothing and ability to look unique aswell as lots of action. I was intrigued just by looking at him playing, so I started a account of my own.

My first outfit was provided by Gnash, consisting of Shady Jungle skirt, Mountain boots and Party bra. I loved the way my bra matched my Jester D-1, and was happy skilling on berycleds. Until I found the Tandtardion Young spot. Here I started socializing with people properly, and also later when boxing in ring. I soon learned that the entropia was much more fun with friends to enjoy it with.

As a (more of a) noob I always hated to sweat, so I never did that much. Instead I took jobs as a runner. A very nice armorcrafter made me bodyguard armour for my running-services.*
I loved the look of my armour! Yet soon I got a full set of Vigi, and started hunting umbranoids, where I looted my Bunny. When I got it, I was so happy, I rang up Gnasher at work to tell him.

I also joined the society "Black Pearl", who then was pretty inactive. the first few days it was only me and the leader, Mac, on. Then Misii joined, and Gnasher. I quickly became advisor and took care of the society, to get it back on foot. Soon after Yam, Jewel and Firkin joined. And Denizu, Hebupo.. etc. All great people who I respect, and miss terribly.

My first HOF came the summer in 2004, on a feffoid E of Port Atlantis. It was around 200 peds, and had a foxtrot rifle in it. I was happy as could be! And I got the taste for more.. Before this, however, I had experienced beeing called a scammer several times, on basis of nothing exept my misunderstood nickname and "claiming to be" a female. I was quite upset about it, but decided to keep on, after all I had done nothing wrong. I would prove them wrong.

Christmas 04 I attended the annually Miss Calypso for the first time.
Singular had acctually stopped me in Port Atlantis the year before and said that I should join that year aswell. However I wasnt familiar with the game or the community yet at that point, and only took him for beeing a wackjob (sorry Singular, hehe!)
Anyway, in 04 I became runner up, Roulette won. I loved the show and beeing a part of it, and decided to be properly prepared next time.

Febuary 05 I joined EntropiaForum, and early fell in love with the community here. Back then EF was small and most of the people who posted we knew who was. At this time I had also quit school (media and communications) irl so I had alot of freetime. Meaning alot of playing. I started updating EF with news immideatly as they came across.

Also at this point (April-May) I started collecting the Paradox armour, that still was missing arms and gloves. I allready had my Lavender coat and all purple outfit. I got the fitting nickname "Miss Purple" and "Miss Paradox"

In spring 05 MindBuster decided to give me the Official EF reporter tag. Right after I got it, there was the second round of LandGrab ever. I went to do a report on it, used 12 hours writing notes and running around beeing killed. I found it thrilling, yet exhausting. The reports became a hit.

I got my first uber in early summer that year, 3,4k PED Snarg with my socmate Hebupo. It was the third mob we shot, first a fugabarba, then a snable, then the snarg...

Later on, there was some internal disputes in Black Pearl, and I, the emo I am, cried when leaving, hehe. I joined the new society Origin of Symmetry, with Gnasher as general and mostly old BP members. Also here, I took position as second-in-command.

Also, at this point, I started collecting paint to the upcoming Miss Calypso.

Autumn 05 I got my second uber. I was then lucky enough to be trusted with "Snotty", Avery`s Mod Merc. And snotty served me well. I think it was the fifth mob I shot or something... 3,2k Armax

I had been preparing for several months, and even tho I had a amazing outfit that I wanted to show to everyone, I had to keep it secret until the contest for the suprise-effect.
And suprised they were. I still remember SIBUK`s ":OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OMG RED COAT!!!!!!!!!"

I got the title, and was very happy :) I also decided, that since it wasnt really anything to do with the title, Id do a little charity.
So I came up with the Skamta Claus event:

In January I suddenly became single again. I was in a bit of a crappy mood, so MindArk served me a 2,4k Ambuli

At this time Optima also helped me out ALOT with my clothingcollection. Electra was selling out, and I got ahold of alot of goodies.

In Febuary I got Moderator status here on EF.

in May I moved back to my hometown Hammerfest irl, after living in Alta during the whole of my EU period. I didnt have a proper PC that could support EU until October. Yet, during that time I got a "EU Ambassador" - badge in the mail!

Also, after I came back, I decided it was time for me to jump out of the Second-in-command position and get a fresh start. I left OoS (a bit heavy hearted but also exited) and started up the society "Rabbids", which is going really well!

And this year I decided to uphold the Skamta Claus event, making it a tradition:

Recently, I got my fourth uber on a moursusilex, 1,1k together with my awesome Rabbid-socmate Jorael!

All in all, some good three years!


*if anyone doenst know what running is, before you could mostly outrun a mob, and the first person the mob "sniffed" it would follow. so basically a noob got the mob after him/her, and the hunter followed, shooting the mob, not getting hit.
 
Gratz on 3 years! Nice story as usual, thanks for sharing.

Oh I figured that it was probably a typo Marco made. Its supposed to be "Scam`s ladies handbag". You know, to stuff the armour from upgrade-scams in.

No really, I forgot. I am very ashamed (bahahahahahahahahahahaha get the silly pun?)


Too much champis on me. Gnite!

First: I was gonna say "Skam, why did you go naked for a year? There were no Jester D-1's three years ago."

But then: I started thinking...

~2007 - ~3 = ~2004 = 2003...

Woot, I just realized I've been in PE one year more then I thought I had. :woot:
 
Grats Skammy!! ;)

Ehehehe, I wouldnt go around naked for a year anyway, remember that was before they "trimmed" the hair downstairs on females.
Nudebug... It was awful :laugh:
 
YIIHAHAAAAWWWWWWWWW gratz Skammie hun :wtg: :yay: :bowdown: :woohoo:
 
Gratz on making it 3 years :monkey: And wish you the best in the coming years ;)

Single hu? Hmmm.... :silly2:

Wish you the best.
 
Y`know, when I was writing this I was thinking "I must remember to write that down", but yet again I forgot something.

I must add, thanks ALOT to the friends, helpers, knights in shiny armour and helpless noobs who have had a important or less important role in my EU-career so far. It has helped me be where I am today (where am I? :scratch2: ) so all creds to every familiar face out there! Thank you :)
