Hello IPY,
Excalaber is here. I have ben lurking for quite some time, and was very excited for the launch this week. Anyone know me from Atlantic or any other freeshards? If not, pleasure to meet you!
I just wanted to finally register so that I can post at least this much. Az, you made the right decision on delaying. Quality is so important, and please don't be worried about losing any playerbase because no matter how much they will be upset, they WILL still be here on launch day. In fact, some people...including myself....are impressed by this decision and find it more professional than simply opening the flood gates now and having to take the servers down more frequently for updates. Just wanted to throw a shoutout to you here.
To everyone else, I can't wait to see you in-game! :)

First, Excalaber, you sound like a noob and I hope you use your forum name in game because when I see you I am going to PK, loot, grief, repeat you over and over.
And I am from Atlantic, I probably pwned you there too.
Nice to meet you.

I made a 14 day free trial on OSI Atlantic yesterday. Can I join your cool club?

I will authorize your entrance to our cool club as soon as my application for beta is authorized. :]

I was with the small elite squad DD on Atlantic, and before that I was EiG with Greybeard. I assure you that I owned you several times if you played between '97 and 2000.

Do you remember LLTS? Was a cool guild, but such a zerg of newbs. I was always with SiR LaNcEaLoT and STIMPY and Zoom out on the Penni by Minoc PKing, or in orange robes fighting and taking miner's ingots. :]

I remember one LLTS fight with a macer where I went "Wow, he can actually PvP".

lol wow that brings back memories. i was actually in LLTS for a long while, although seeing as there were 200+ members in that guild, i doubt anyone would be able to pick my name out of a line up.

Bro, if you hung out with SiR LaNcEaLoT then I know you got ROLLED by me at one point . =P
Az, I played during that era so I prolly got killed by you then I guess. I was big on Trinny at the beginning. With Necromancer and Vader (south of trinny). Also hung with TB sometimes...but even though I hung with them I'd still get para'ed and have 8 people box me and steal everything until I was naked in my underwear and I'm like "guys wtf we were cool yesterday' lol...
Anyone here know Hellfire, Black Rain, Vader, or Necromancer? (Necro also had an archer named "a Lesser Daemon")

I played ATL after beta, all the way until Catskills was released. I rolled with AoD and The Mercs, and if you all played at that point, I KNOW we rolled you ;-) SO Nanna Nanna nanna! But what matters.. is who is gonna roll who on IPY !!

Good to see we have another awesome contributor to the server... How's that beta ap working out for you?

Now there is a group of guys I haven't thought about in a long time. Ah, those flash videos, fond memories.

I gave up on caring about actually working on beta given what goes on in the current "beta" anyways. I am going to purely look at this shard from just another generic players view from now on given how things have gone already.
And I hope you use your forum name too. Still can't wait for the server to open though.

Yeah, I still talk to the people that are beta testing, and bulls hit with them in vent sometimes and all that, I just don't have the enthusiasm to actually test considering how decisions on doing anything around here get made. I'm just focusing more on RL stuff and getting a new computer built before the server opens because I am going to give this CPU to my little brother so he can play too.

I want the time I wasted reading that back please.
I know how you feel though. I used to want to **** Natalie Portman, but then I saw how she chooses movies, and I decided, yea she's not that attractive anyhow. I need to focus my time on basketweaving anyhow. I got some amazing new strips of wood and I took a really fun class last week. I think I'll try to make one maybe this weekend if I don't have to take my dog to the vet. He has been sick lately.

You are using two things that have no connection, what I am saying is, say I did test and I think the gains on something are too slow/fast, whatever. Odds are the higher ups are going to make their own decision on it and do whatever they think anyways. So basically it would be pointless. I keep up with testing and what's going on, do you know how many people are beta testing right now at this moment?
5-6, isn't that cool? I am not saying I wouldn't be a great addition to the testing (and also the fact I would be on right now, when there's barely anyone else even doing anything), or that I think beta testing is pointless, it's just after I have seen how it's going and kept up with the people, I don't have the enthusiasm for it anymore. Just let Az and the coders finish taking their time doing whatever they are doing during the delay. No biggie.

And to your little edit that you spent the extra time trying to respond to in your troll manner, how is me getting another computer set up so I can bring another person to the same server we are discussing about anywhere near as much of a red herring as you are trying to say my post was?
Nice attempt at trolling though assclown.
You go by Caviar in game?

So what I understood from that is...they won't let you in...so you don't want to be in the club?
Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong

Oh you're right. I re-read it.
Its more like "i'm a huge baby, and they won't let me in so i'll say I don't even care even though five days ago I was starting threads begging to be let in"
Is that better?
