Well to start this whole thing off right I feel I should introduce myself good and proper.
My Real Life
I am a full time non-traditional (old) student returning to finish what I started a longtime ago. It's pretty fun, and also affords me some valuable free time to let my mind go here. I got married for the first time about 2 months ago to a very beautiful gaming nerd to which my friends are all jealous. If your nice I'll post a picture of her sometime. All we pretty much talk about are mmo's. We love them. So it's safe to say that our house oozes a steady flow of geek on a regular basis. We have 4 cats that were all my wife's idea. She's got a thing for animals. We reside in the heart of the midwest in good ole Iowa. Where we have a pretty simple yet fun life playing games and upgrading our rigs.
My MMO Life
This all began about 10 years ago when I bought Ultima Online by complete accident. I had thought I bought another Ultima game, but it turned out to be one of my most happy little accidents. I played a miner/blacksmith there for about 2 years never really adventuring as much as outfitting the adventurers. I moved on to Everquest for a short stint, and then to SWG until the "Jedi Grind" made things a little silly. Since then I've played a myriad of games like EQ2, CoH/CoV, Auto Assault, EVE, Planetside, LOTRO, and of course the 8 million pound gorilla WoW. Currently I have active subscrptions for WoW and just restarted my CoH subscription to check out the new updates. I truly love this genre of gaming. I love the idea of having my own personal little adventures in what ever IP I am exploring at the time. Nothing else in my mind compares to the fun and the friendships I have had in mmo's.
So that's just a little bit about me to get things started. I will try to update this post on a weekly basis so keep checking in. I look forward to interesting dialouge between us, and if there is an issue or a game you would like to hear about drop me a line and I will do my best to accomodate you.
Thanx,
Ivan
