    Well I guess I can drag my sorry behind over here to vouch for this fellow..

    Honestly, a really great guy. We have played together in eq days, DAoC and a little WoW back in the day. We haunt the same message board and known each other via the net for a bunch of years. I was the one that told him about our wonderful guild and knowing he is seeking a mature guild (wait, I said mature and Hammerfist in same sentence???) I think he would be a great addition to us.

    If anyone wants dirt on him just ask me in vent, before we let him in Smile

    So I vote on NY thumb up for this Boston guy... Plus I have a feeling I might have to be nice this year with the Yanks playing the way they are..

    Vanilla and specifically NATURAL vanilla. That french stuff is disgusting. I make my own from imported Madagascan vanilla beans. (seriously!)

    2) Favorite 3 movies or series.
    Hunt for Red October
    LOTR Trilogy
    Star Trek and early Star Wars

    I am a man of simple tastes, it seems.
    I am also a huge fan of GRRM a Song of Ice and Fire

    3) Do you like Ultraman??? Dont know who he is?? SHAME ON YOU!!!
    Shame be it unto me.

    -------
    I like what I hear. I for one would like to hear more about this EQ
    guide and how ancient history and database engineer go together.
    -------

    DB Engineer and Ancient History - They don't at all. But one pays the bills, and the other... not so much yet. Smile I've dabbled in writing, but told myself that I need to have a better understanding a history before I can actually apply it to paper in a useful manner. Focusing on Ancient/Classical history basically from the first known epics and writings to the end of the Roman Empire. I like my fantasy to have a historical base, as I find that all the best writers pull things from our own world into that new world.

    I was a guide in EQ for about 3 months or so, as a "fill in" during those times when gameplay got truly tedious and boring. It's was almost a regular job with time requirements, but fun. Most of the issues required getting players unstuck, or helping new players recover their corpses. I had fun warping around the world, checking out all the places that one could never go alone (like the dragons Vox and Naggy, etc).

    I guess my most notable achievement was busting a player for using a known leveling exploit. IIRC, it was someone who was harvesting a certain item and turning it in for a quest, but due to a glitch in the server the item that was to be "harvested" continuously respawned by following certain steps. I followed him around for about 45 minutes or so watching him run back and forth getting the item and running it back to cash in for the exp and coin, once every few minutes or so. Eventually I pop up beside him and said something like "hi there, nice day for leveling, huh?". All I got was an "oh shit" and the player actually tried to run. So I pulled him over to one of those small islands in Ocean of Tears, surrounded by water and beasties until I could get a real GM in to handle it. Twisted Evil

    Ironically, Howard was a writer that treasured historical fiction as well. Nice responses to a light app. I get why this happens so, great followup, yes vote,

    Ah so you plan to write literature. You are going to base it on the Roman time period? I like to read about the Romans too. The crusades are great as well. There is a lot of good stuff with both.

    I once got stuck in EQ. I can't remember the name of the place but it was all gray rock and there was a huge hole to the right of the ledge. I fell in. It was full of lava. I didn't exactly get stuck but my body did. It was a big pain. Liked to scare the hell outta me when it happened. I was running and looked over my shoulder to say something to my roommate and he said, "Hey you're falling." I then said, "SSSSHHHHHHHIIIIITTTTTT." Good times in EQ.

    I think I said it earlier but I give the Big Thumb Thumbs Up .
