Where has the Old School Honor gone?

It lives on in some few people still in EQ, mysefl included.

I finally got buckled down to complete Riae's Epic. The last thing I needed was SolB. Now I have heard some horror stories of races to turn in the pearl even though it is very obvious who was there first camping it the longest in consecutive hours.

Well last night I had the spawn time down to pop between 7:30pm-10:30pm PST. I was logged in and camping it at 5:30pm PST all by my lonesome without a sole in sight but myself. About 6:45pm PST in pops.... STUMPALOT! Now this dude may not be 'old school' (or at least he aint even as close to old as me in game) but this dude has old school honor. He didnt even contest my right to turn in. Hes like "You were here before me. Its yours." (note this is paraphrased).

So this is a call out to Stumpalot and all you old school dawgs who still have some fucking honor.

HOOOO YAAA!

Peace out :)

It's refreshing to see a positive post in here once and a while.

Stumpalot is old school I think. Unless I am mistaken he was either in the old SCGOW or was Stumpyy either way they are both old school and both classy individuals.

Yes, I completed my Epic approximately 60 minutes after the SolB turn in.

Ragefire fell in what I think was about 12 seconds.

Heres a shout out to my homies in Pravus!

Thanks to my Guild Leader, Holistic, and my Guild Officers for simply saying "GET TO SKYFIRE TO COMPLETE THE BITCHES EPIC!" and of course thank you to all my homies in PD for dropping everything and rushing to Skyfire :) If I was gay I would rim job each and everyone of you.

I appologize for my link dead's upon zone in. It never fails :) Thanks for your patience.

PS: Now Im not certain here, but Im pretty sure I hold the record for going the longest without completing cleric epic heheh. Im faily certain I have had the shimmering pearl since 4-6 months after Kunark release. I could just never complete the long ass RF camp in SolB due to life limitations (aka My woman would casterate me if I spent 40+ hours online straight).

PEACE!

Edit: Corrected a few fat fingers

Stumpy is a very nice, considerate person. Seeing this post regarding him doesn't surprise me in the least. :)

What are the retired *iaes up to nowadays? new game?

Hi Diae. I remember zoning in (on a gimp account) and seeing about 75 clerics all there waiting to jump you. I sent you a tell about hoping you get the turn in. Glad you got it bro/sis.
Others also have the old time honor. There are other clerics in game who said it was not first come first served. They even said it was not a camp so they could do the turn in even though you had been there longer.
What is the flamevault rule on this? First at camp gets to turn in? or whoever is faster on the click? or random the clerics that are there? I have seen all 3.

I think I officially retired for about 5 days :) Then I woke up.

Original Riae: He has not played EQ in about 2 years
Original Giae: He has not played EQ in about 2 years.
Original Jiae: He has not played in at least 1 year.
Original Xiae: Still plays. He also has as his main character Bashiae
Original Fiae retired.
Original Qiae: He has not played in about 8-10 months.
Original Kiae: He retired long long LOOOONG ago.
Original Diae - I still play :)

I took over Riae fulltime long long ago. Im pretty sure I have played Riae longer then the original Riae.

The Original Jiae took over Giae long long ago. Giae is now played part time by him. I think he plays about 1 time per week.

Jiae is now played by an Enchanter in Dark Fury. Not eBay'd. Its a friend using him.

Fiae is still totally retired from EQ though still has a standing presense in the EQ Community. You may know him from The Safehouse as a Mod.

Qiae is now played by my best friend, Eviliae.
Kiae is now also played by my best friend, Eviliae.

So the only *iae which still no longer has a presense in EQ is Fiae. He has not eBay'd nor given his account to a friend. He is just plain old retired :)

Hope that was not too confusing.

When I first started reading this I was thinking oh no don't tell me Stumpynuts tried to steal RF spawn. Ya, he's a cool chico.

Gratz on epic.

Stumpalot != Stumpy / Stumpyy.

Nice to hear about something positive for once, grats *iae.

Thank you Drolgin. I have known Stumps for a while and I must say I have not one single bad thing to say about him. He is a stand up guy and would trust him in almost any situation (short of account info hehe).

Drolgin give Stumpyy a /hug from all of us in PE!

Oh and Daie not one bad thing? HE FARTS ALL THE TIME!

Holy shit...I can't believe, its a post regarding the cleric epic, and its not going to turn into a bitch/whine/cry/boast screwing each other's girlfriends thread?!

Hi, im the guildleader of the guild stump is in. Was reading our message board and saw the link posted. Very cool, Stump has always been considered a good friend and member to me, and shows every bit of respect and good will we stand for. Only problem is he is not a website person, so i will have to deliver the message to him myself 8). Whoever linked this to our website thank you and I will make sure he gets the message as im sure it will be enough to get him to check the boards lol. In fact hes on right now, so maybe i can pry him over here to drop a line of gratitude 8)

BTW, Im new to these boards, ive viewed em a couple times to get a kick out of some of the pictures posted, so if anyone wants to drop a line on our message board, the address is http://WWW.LOTM.NET

you screwed a primary cleric out of their epic turn in for your alt?

Posted: October 10, 2002, 4:00 am
by Ebumar
Actually Kyoukan, he 3 boxes, so stfu, k, thx...

Posted: October 10, 2002, 6:26 am
by Ulvian
Kyoukan is just dumbstruck regarding this thread being about the cleric epic,and there not being a bunch of asswangers crying about something.

No one trying to justify how a druid/monk/lv 53 warrior with lammies and about 25 more people who aren't even on EQ yet (because the said druid/monk/warrior are busy calling them at home and waking them up) is a valid force to take out Ragefire.
And how Snaring + Kiting ragefire around Skyfire like dumb faggots is considered "engaging"

Give him time :) He'll accept it as the "thank u" post it is.[/b]

Stumpalot is old school. He was the one that originally convinced my brother (Braxter) and I to buy the game. He first played a necro named Dargenous about 3 years ago. He was our RL neighbor.

He's the shiznit.

oh he 3 boxes. that makes it better. or something. like I give a fuck if he 10 boxes

relax, I'm just fucking trolling you

old school lol

its a video game, not a rap group.

ya, looks like the kids found this thread 8)

It was cool while it lasted, but in comes the JACKASS and other various comments. Ahh well, if anyone comes to my boards and posts that kinda shit ill just ban them 8) I prefer an environment where everyone is cool and respectful and just have fun playing the game. Not a hostile one with a bunch of pricks. If you wanna clutter up threads with that crap then go to fohs rickshaw forum, youll find all kinds of material there to feast upon, but why turn a positive thread into a flamewar?

where are your boards?

Skrye, it is customary to post the jacka** as a welcome to our community. It's rude for a new poster NOT to be welcomed in that manner. :) It's the Veeshanvault equivalent of, "Nice to meet you!" :)

He's new , he will learn...)

Grats brother Diae on your epic and yes Stumpalot is an awesome guy. Nice as they come. I know him well.

very interesting

So your saying jackass is a good thing to say? If so then my apologies, but Im not a big messageboard person really, I usually hear more flaming then anything so I try and stay away from it.

Try using *FF* in your posts : )

We had a banathon on the old board all due to the *FF*

Posted: October 10, 2002, 3:39 pm

If I may....

I HATE *FF*

It's nothing more than a tool for you to bait someone you don't like into getting banned....it's a concept that had good intentions but let's face it...we pretty much take care of discusions and flames as needed.

If someone asks a serious question, most people answer it seriously. If someone baits, flames ensue.

Sitting behind *FF* and not pursuing a discussion (read:baiting) shows total lack of balls.

That said, if someone puts a *FF* tag into a real discussion thread, I don't care as much...but I still think it's a pain...the slightest slip and the trolls start finger pointing and tattling like preschool daycare for the 'special'

Edit - and yes, on this board jackass is a good thing to say. It's like "Welcome!"

I'm a jackass, you're a jackass, we're all a bunch a flaming jackasses.

Gotta give ya the customary JACKASS Skye :)


Its not a bad thing man, we do it to all the newbies here :D

As for Stumpy, Let him know I still owe him a shard if he needs it :D

ok, one more newbie question

Posted: October 10, 2002, 4:31 pm
by skrye
what is *ff*

btw, stump has all his shards now, hes waiting on zorg in solb. he should have epic soon we hope.

Posted: October 10, 2002, 4:37 pm

*ff* = "Flame Free" . . . An idea whose time was shortlived.

har!

:oops: 8) Thank you all for the great replies, and a special thanks to Diae of the Great Soulmenders. Its not every day that we have a chance to do the "right thing" and have it matter most. And on that note <emote: opens backpack, gets out a round of cheese, pulls out a knife... cuts the cheese> :wink:

I send tell to stump in game, hey stump go check out the MB, its got a post for ya. Stump replies: I know what your trying to get me to do.
haha i knew he would think i was trying to lure him into the messageboards.

*FF* is completely kyoukan's fault. She posted picts of burning babies, etc. on my thread and all I did was post a cute harmless little picture making fun of Canada's military. sheesh!
