Just thought it would be nice to throw out a topic of appreciation to those who help others all over the lands of Sloth. Most of us do not go looking for the love but it still feels nice every once in a while. Please follow up with anyone you’d like to say thanks to.
For me, I’d like to show my gratitude to Deb (Shyla) for all that she puts herself through gathering spellbooks, marking peristratas, and teaching anyone and everyone. She plays in a much different way than most of us, and I for one am grateful for her efforts. I also want to thank all those that go out of their way to save each and every one of us from our own stupid mistakes. “You are dead” is very lonely, but it is nice to know someone will try to get you if they can.
Smile and be happy :)
Exx: for the tokens, exp, eq and help he gave me yesterday.
The mud is easily the best it has ever been.
Without whome we’d all be getting lots more shock therapy for our mud addiction.
hmm, i have these badges here that say i am animal hero rank 1 and rank 2.
can’t remember who gave them to me. must have been someone who was very grateful :twisted: :!:
According to my Brand-to-English Dictionary:
“I thought about saying ‘You’re welcome’ but decided not to.”
I appreciate all the wonderful folks in DS, the people that let me follow them without gsetting me to leader, the folks that join my groups, and my Brand-to-English Dictionary. And of course the many people that come to rescue me when dead, even Auto. :)
My quick and dirty honorable mention list…..
Shyla - Teaching/attuning/raising/answering questions/and overall positive attitude towards obsticles on the mud.
Alias - Rescuing my sorry butt from 40+mil mobs I was curious about/helping me pop eq on mobs I couldn’t 5 run with a nightmare/dragging me around on lyme for good xp.
Quake - Always seeming to know when I’m dead (perhaps a super secret necro ability)/Helping out when I’ve been looted by one of those 40+ mil mobs I was curious about/and making groups I’ve been in never need a regen
Lai/Tink/ + About a hundred other chars - Helping keep the newbies faith in sloth alive by hunting down eq/tokens/spellbooks/directing them to help files etc
Kheldar - Always being ready to run xp no matter what
Autolycos - Always having a warm cup of STFU ready to hand out to us marathon runners.
Yinao - For showing that the gay community does have a presence on sloth.
I will admit that i got a bad habbit of calling people gay as a insult or a bad comment etc but truthfully irl i got no problem with gays. Here lies my policy:
- Dont hit on me and there wont be a problem.
Personally i have met gay people infact i have even had a girlfriend and her brother was gay and there never seemed to be any conflict there.
But i would say that i deserve that comment and thumbs up resouh
bring on the pain :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:
Anywho i guess i can throw out my shoutouts and thanks too while i am here.
Shyla: She has prolly taught me over half the spells that I know. Now she sends me others that need taught that she is maxed on and i teach off and on so thanks to shyla.
Autolycos: Now this STFU hand is nice but throughout the 100’s of times i have died and no matter how many times he slaps me or tells me to STFU he still manages to come and raise me…. so thanks to Auto.
Atwell: You seem to drop everything at a time to raise people that no one are on the way to raise. And even if someone is on it your always a step quicker to the dead person anyways so i would like to thank you for that.
Rub: Rub prolly leads the most groups in this mud whether it be 2-3-4 man stab blast on lyme or ss eq/xp or bh eq/xp he leads alot and i prolly wouldnt be at this level without his xp groups.
Van: Same deal as rub leads a hell of alot of xps and eq groups lyme bh ss etc so i would like to thank him too
If i didnt mention you and you think that you deserve a thanks sorry i have taken up enough of this post already but it’s not like i forgot you
Bring on the Pain :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:
Don’t confuse appreciation with survival. If your kissing ass thats another thing.
Id like to appreciate Rynquald for not getting mentioned. I would also appreciate all those who dont post. :P

[i:2niich0k]This response is not intended as a personal slight against anyone blah blah blah[/i:2niich0k] My reason for posting on this thread is the fact that it is one of the few positive threads I have seen on the crier. I’m a firm believer that regardless of level, how you act on the net still reflects on you as an individual irl. I do appreciate the people I mentioned, the last couple were smart-a$$ comments since I have a hard time staying serious for more than 30 seconds straight, but I still appreciate auto and yinao and the elements they bring to the mud. I am in no way a crier junkie, post prob an average of once every 3-4 months but saw this and thought ‘hmmm……an opportunity to show people that they are noticed’ so went w/ it.
Resouh
Get a room already :roll:
I’d like to take the chance to thank Tinct. Man, that guy will bend over backwards for anyone who needs it. Any tiime I need cash he’s given it to me without expecting a reward. Also, he’s a very good looking young man. Peace out Tinct bro. Love ya man.
i’d like to thank:
leaders for organizing groups, and then putting up with all the group bullshit that goes on - i.e. cf’s, arguing over who called eq first, bots, assholes, backseat leaders, etc.
tanks for takin the hits, rescues, having to run back and rescue the dead newbie in the group and dying in the process
clerics for healin and raisin
mages for blastin the mobs down
necros for jujus and infusions
druids for being multipurpose
thieves for wounding the mobs down and making them easier and quicker to kill
monks for being 2.tanks and pickin up the slack when 1.tank drops
bards for the kick ass bonus their songs provide
all the fleeing casters for relite when it drops midfight
yeah there are specific classes i left out - but i think i pretty much have my thanks covered.
oh yeah. thx shyla for being our beloved librarian. don’t know what we’d do without you
and thx imms and admin for supporting our mud habit and paying the rl coinage to keep this game FREE.
“that’s all i got to say about that” –forrest gump –>forrest gump
I apreciate everybody who plays, except botters…I dont like those ;)
Special thanks today from me:
Shyla – of course, for helping me get spellbooks with all my chars and attuning several of em :)
Minstrel – for leading some great desert groups and some nice salamis stuff too so we could all check it out
Bit – nice leading and great breadth of area knowledge.
Alias, Van, Rub – nice leading
Karna – for always having some money making scheme to share with me and some boring as hell 2-man stuff.
Madmax – cause hes a damn healing machine, gotta appreciate that.
and tons more, but thats all I got time for right now.
I would like to say that I appreciate the fact that Balrog actually plays this mud with mortal characters. That really helps an Imm appreciate the depth of the changes that are implemented and also helps gauge how high the general populace’s frustration level will be, and whether it’s warranted or just whining.
Go Erik.
A special thanx to everyone that makes this game fun. Which is pretty much everyone. (yes even Poit)
I want to thank the countless people who have ever helped me do anything on this mud, especially all my DoW members. There’s a lot of cool people on here, you know who you are, and there’s so many to list I would hate to leave anyone out.
And I want to thank all the cool imms who work hard. Overall, I think being admin is pretty thankless and stressful.
Thanks to Shyla with her countless teachings. I think I have personally given her max learned for more than one spell. :)~
I guess I can thank myself for being so damn cool…
Toxis struts and then flexes like a body builder.
It ain’t easy, being cheesy :)~

There are truly a ton of people that I am thankful for in the Sloth community. I’ll do my best here by limiting myself.
My fellow administrators/immortals for taking the time to reteach someone how to be an imm again.
The Golden Tigers for giving me a reason to want to play again. I can’t believe Madmax is silly enough to still allow me to get him killed!
Shyla for being herself and an invaluable friend.
Yinao for being my “hero”.
Blade for giving me something to laugh at pretty much every time I login.
Those fearless leaders that allow a 4x caster like me to tag along and sponge crazy amounts of xp. You all know them!
And finally, I would like to thank those of you that go out of their way to assist people in learning the game and enjoying themselves. There are far too many to list here!
Wow, noone thanks Jake? Jeesh, you should all thank the guy who makes sure that the game you love (or love to hate) is there when you click LoGiN.
That’s not just sucking up either :P Seeing as how I have nothing to gain in doing so.
Oh, and you should also take a moment to show appreciation to Splork too for getting up at 4am when the mud crashes to reboot it for you addicts :P

:shock:
I thought he was connected via firewire?
Splork…. The Matrix has you…..
:twisted:
I appreciate anyone who remembers who I was. Who I am now is yet to be decided, as some of you may have noticed with my latest character name choice. ;) Hello all! Long time no mud!
I appreciate Splork not to wipe/delev me again a week ago when i got drunk and was messin up w/ players :D :twisted:
