The Chosen returns

Greetings to you infants.

I have returned in this time of trouble, to bring peace once more to your hearts and to comfort the mourning.

We stand now at a crossroads. We could all go our seperate ways and lose what has drawn us all together, that which has made us a community. I am not your leader, for we have none. We all have a say where we go; each has a small role to play.

I have walked among you since the early days. I have watched many of you grow from nothingness into greatness. I was there to lead the army of Midgard when we strode to make peace with the other Children of Peace. We were betrayed then, as many feel we are now.

But, I come to offer you hope. Hope that this is only the beginning. Not the end. A chapter in our lives has come to a close, let it not be our epilogue.

What message do I bring? Not one of peace. Not one of war. But one to strengthen you, in this time of despair. Read on, and see hope.

The Chosen of Midgard,
Jorem.

Well, guys, there you have it. Yeah, some of you figured it out all by yourselves. ;)

First things first...my quote of the year...I am not GOA, I don't work for them, I don't even like them RightNow. :p

Now, I've put days of my life into these forums, and have received nothing but flames (and yes, some thanks) from a lot of people. I have stayed up late into the night to do CC when things were going bad. I didn't have to. But this MY community. And I'll be damned if it falls apart.

So, what do we do? Well, Kemor/Zargar are the simply the messengers here. They've had their hands tied for a long time. Kemor is a great guy, and has YOUR interests as his priority. He wants this to work for YOU, not for him, sure, it's his job, but it's his passion too. The people that chose to close the forums pobably never read the forums. Well, maybe once in a while to see how many flames there are. Kemor isn't the boss, and when things go wrong, he could often be the last in the line to hear. Hopefully, with the way the homepage is going, that'll all change.

What about me? What will I do? Well, I've given it some thought. These (DAoC) forums will probably be closed VERY soon, and I need to find a new home. Some of you may have noticed already that I've moved to Barrysworld. Now, before you go screaming bloody murder, yes, they're primarily a NON-rpg forum. But, they're offering us a home. And I would really, REALLY like to keep us all together. They have a somewhat decent structure, and they allow flames of GOA, etc. to a certain degree.

So, I, Brannor, appeal to you all to go there, that we may continue our community, albeit nomadic.

What else? Well, yes, I was Jorem, I poured a lot of time into him as well, and he got deleted. Just like these forums. I make you this promise, that I will do my utmost to make any future event I'm involved in better than the EoB event. We learnt a lot from that, and the team is eager to get started. I can't tell you when, because I don't know. But trust me, not a week has gone by, or will go by, in which I don't bug Kemor/Zargar about them. Oh, and my apologies to the Hibbies and Albies which I "slaughtered" in the EoB, that was rude of me. :(

So, my friends, my enemies, I ask of you to help me recreate OUR community. I cannot do it alone. I need your help.

That pretty much covers it.

I'll post this on a few forums around the Net. I hope you'll join me at my new home.

[/OOC]

And so my children, we go forth once more apon the fields of war. Stay with me, for we are strong if we are many.

Welcome aboard Brannor, I hope you and all who follow will find the forums to your liking.

Arrgghhh, Brannor's coming here - I knew I should have gone to IGN ;)

I thought you might have been sulking at the thought of those 1000+ posts being consigned to history.

How long before you get your first flame here, though?

Brannor's here!
I knew this was the right place to come:clap:

I'm looking forward to a community, hopefully without much of the whining from the DAoC forums. After all, here ppl cannot assume GOA is reading their angry words. So maybe they won't post them;)

And Trine - I really like your sig:D

Damn dude... that was a nice post. Made me think about the whole situatio all over again.
IMHO it doesn't matter if these forums are primarily FPS or whatever, we have our own little section to create a community in.
We can do it!
:clap:

No. Not a mod. Don't think there is any need. ;) Right? RIGHT?

Anyway, I'll try visit here as much as I am able, and have sent out search parties to find the monkhays. (I accidently let them out when I heard the forums were going down). If you see one, just give it your banana, it's been trained in 300 ways of /prodding and believe me. The banana's not worth it.

I am glad to see a bunch of you here already.

Let's rumble!

Hmm...well, yes Quemine. It was indeed fun. Although it was tiresome to be spammed a lot at the beginning by people using inappropriate language, etc. The experience was a tough, yet rewarding one. Seeing people I knew's reaction to Jorem tracking them down in the far out places. Playing an PCC is hard work, make no mistake. There are times when you can get swamped by people, and need to get away.

All I can ask of you is that when the events start, that you not spam people that are playing PCC's with stupid things like:

"Are you Kemor?"
"Are you a real person?"
"Give me money plz!"
"Are you an NPC?"
"Kiss me!"
"Why won't you kiss me?"
"Am I not pretty?"
"What armour are you wearing?"
"Can I have your armour?"

I will always stay in character, but also have the option to simply /ignore

Remember, that a lot of the PCC's are volunteers, like us ex-mods, that give up their free time to make the game more interesting for YOU. So give them a break. ;)

And no. You'll never know it's me. ;) Not till much later... :cool: Because there are people out there that RP better than me. Yeah yeah, hard to believe, but it's true I tells ya! :p

Grumble, mumble, heaved up and heaved out gits.. Ooohh it's green here :)

Nice move Brannor.... Only one question really, if you is not a mod now, whats to stop you from flaming full throttle??

Oh and as a stalwart middie... what you apologiesing to hibs/albs for :D

Oh, and my apologies to the Hibbies and Albies which I "slaughtered" in the EoB, that was rude of me.

Yeh, I don't think we really need extra mods here. Since this isn't a GOA forum people can't really complain about their mistakes here.
Brannor was always a person who kept the boards "interesting" at the least ;)

When I read something like that. Whether it be a "joke" or not. Posted by a moderator...starts to make me wonder if this was a good choice... :(

I don't appreciate being sworn at, whether it's a joke to you or not.

> spam people that are playing PCC's

Lets make a deal here. We won't spam you guys with drivel. You make them events NOT about some dubious "message of peace" next time. Let the next PCC that appears to our people not be a healer but a mighty berserker with a two-handed axe! Eh? ;)

Ottar, Skald

'report this post to a moderator'

... what if it was from a moderator?

Nice to fall out with a mod on your first day isn't it?

:rolleyes:
