Cratylus, an old player wishing to return

Post by cratylus »

Hello, my name is Cratylus, and I would like to join Athen Paladins. I started with AO at launch, loved the heck out of it, and played like crazy up til Shadowlands.

Right about the time SL launched, where I was living got flattened by a hurricane. I didn't get power back for 3 months, and by that time, given all the flagging and collecting stuff that was required to progress from zone to zone, I was really behind and felt bad asking my org at the time (Legion, if you wanna excavate some old AO history) to drag me back through all the SL content, so I eventually quit.

Out of the blue this year I decided to come back, and try a shade. I found this thread by one of your members:

http://www.athenpaladins.org/forums/vie ... 14&t=10290

it has been my guide for the past few weeks as I re-acquaint myself with the game, and I'm really glad noobas took the time to write it. Thank you very much for writing that!

That led me to your forums, and I saw how active they are, which made me want to join, especially since I'm so out of touch with the current state of the game. I'd really like to play with some folks who can help me understand what's happened since I left, and won't mind some questions.

I have never played Clan before, so please forgive me if I get lost sometimes :)

my characters are
Aybesea, 204 MA, Omni
Cratylus, 170 Agent, Omni

Aysold, 43 Shade, Clan <-- this is the character ill be playing. I may log on to the others for nostalgic trips here and there, but that's it. I registered as Cratylus on your forums because that was my name on the AO forums, and my original character.

My time zone is US-East, GMT -5. I usually play most weeknights 6-12PMish, depending on work, and weekends as well (again, depending on work)

I fully agree with your COC.

Thanks for reading

Hi Cratylus

Welcome to the AP forums and thanks for your interest in AP. Nice to see old players returning and thx for your comprehensive application.

The next step would be to join our bot as a guest to meet/team online. Any AP member can invite you to guest chat. It does not have to be an officer.
You can usually find AP members hanging out at the Vanguards ramp next to the OA grid. If you can’t find a member you can self invite by typing /tell Bobsan !invite This is a temporary invite, so please introduce yourself and ask for help with any questions you may have about your application.

At some point soon, after you've spent some time with us, an officer will contact you for a brief interview. As our officers can be busy with raids and other duties, it may take a few days to contact you.

Hi,

thanks for the response. I've been goofing off all around Rubi-Ka this past week, trying a few different professions before settling on one to actually apply to an org, and I think I actually like the Keeper prof more than the shade. I got one to lvl 91 so far and am really enjoying it.

This weekend I'll try and look up some folks and join the bot as Jubilicious the keeper :)

hope to talk to you soon.
