Who Has The Most Impact On You?

[Slayerz]

i agree this is a very hard question, and there will almost never be one answer, but i think it would be cool to say who has had the most influence on you, because credit should be givin where its do.

For me id have to say rockra has been the most influencial on me, he gave me my pearl, and me a sack in PiF as well, and he was the one who made me decide i wanted to be a pld.

Qwen has a big impact on everyone, cause we all need a bit of mithra lol. Also, star has got me down the rdm road, and i cant wait to see where that goes.

[Ikonic]

well, first off. what is col? according to dictionary.com col is:
1. A pass between two mountain peaks or a gap in a ridge.
2. abbreviation: collect
3. abbreviation: college
4. abbreviation: colony
5. abbreviation: column
6. abbreviation: columbia
7. abbreviation: columbian
8. abbreviation: colorado
9. abbreviation: colossians
however, what i think you were trying to say is "cool". (ok, enough with my drivel).

most influence? hmmmm.

for RDM = Star
for the game in general = Hak
for being polite and helpful to people = Rockra, Timm
for humor and great times = Stri, Wills
for Mithra related stuff = Qwen, Sal
for great MNKness desire = Deadmeat, Effen
for crafting = Dragonhope
for the desire to kill elementals = Zuesholmes
for the awesome power of the solo = Sal, Zues
for an awesome support structure and great times all around = the LS

and for anyone i've left out.... i'm sorry, but i've only so much memory and it's running out fast.

[Striveldt]

Val - he got me into RH back in the day, and i thank him for that
Rock - always willing to lend a hand
Hak - my drive to be the best damn drk i can be
Ik - doin all sorts of fun quests and shiznit

I love everyone else on the LS, and everyone has added something to my gaming experience. Thanks guys^^

[Slayerz]

there happy stri? i fixed it, i may has well call you rockra lol

[Striveldt]

you also might as well call me Ikonic...cos that's who posted your 'cool' error....goob.

[Ikonic]

no shit dude.. while stri's a cool (note the correct spelling of cool) fellow, i don't particularly care being called Stri.

oh, and misnaming the Admin of a forum isn't something one generally should do.

and another thing. rockra is the one with probably the worst grammar in the LS, possibly spelling too, so at least you're better in english skills than he is.

oh.. and stri called you a goob.. ouch, doesn't that one hurt?

[Wills]

Hmm wow very tough question.

I think as far as over all gaming goes I would have to say every one I talk to has had a degree of influence on how I play. I think the close network of friends i have made (they know who they are) have had the biggest impact on me. There have been good times and bad times, but both have had a hand in molding my character. For me I could spot off 20 names, and still have moer to go. For now i guess I will lay down a few.

Hakaida: He has been tight with me ever since I started to play, we have had our ups and downs but have remained good friends through out.

Ikonic: "The Uber Player" Ik is an encyclopedia of informaition. He has helped me many a time. I just hope that I can play enough to pay it back.

Timm: Timm has never said no to any thing I have ever needed help with. He has been a big help and good friend. Its an honor to be able to pty with him.

Rockra: Rock and I again have been friends since the begining. We have shared many a good time. Great parties in the dunes, bad parties in the dunes lol ><. We continue to make each other laugh on a constant basis.

G-Dub: G-Dub and I compliment each other well, we have kicked ass in the dunes, quifim and he helped get my sorry n00b ass out of the jungle. Though he was AOL for a while, he has since come back and I look forward to partying with him again.

Ineptwiz: Wiz, Wiz, Wiz. Wiz just kicked ass, for a Taru. If you are ever lucky enough to have Wiz help you, you know that what ever it is you are doing will get done.

Star: Star helped me through the high 30's and 40's of my character. I am very thank ful.

Before this becomes "War & Peace" I would like to thank all those who I am just getting to know.

[Qwenavier]

for starers, rockhak/pif has always been there for me... but when i do have to say since i been a member i have changed my feelings even more about the game.
the most influencial that i know of is the old click from rockhak: wills, hak, timm, Ike, star, sal, rock, wiz, val, and stri. (i feel like i missed sumone)
kinda feel like ya'll took me under your wing and "nursed me back to health" ^.^ yeah i know.. corny but thats how it feels.. i was only a low lvl whm when i got my pearl. I thank you all who have been there for me and a thank you in advance to those who that do help me in the future. ;D

[Valhallodin]

I would have to say the most influential people on me have been Rockra and Stri. Rock b/c, well, he's Rock and I think that says it all. And Stri b/c I was always trying to stay one step ahead of him and also b/c whenever we'd hang out we'd talk about the game so much that people would threaten to leave lol.

Of course I can't forget Hak because he was there right from the start helping me to learn how to play the game and play it well.

Ikonic is a know-it-all and I mean that in a very literal sense. Sometimes I have to wonder whether or not you really are a robot, b/c damn, that's a lot of memory you've got used up on this game.

Wills has been a very good model of patience and level-headedness. He's never been mean to anybody and he's always been very willing to help.

Star has always also been nothing but super cool, even though I must admit I was a little bit apprehensive to ask him for help early on because he was so much higher, once we did the keys for Kazham, I knew he was a damn good guy.

Qwen is my favorite. She's cool, and much cuter than the rest of you.

Timm is another person who has influenced me, albeit quietly. Timm seems willing to helping, but unwilling to really take credit for it. I've never seem anybody go out of their way for other players like he does and be so happy to do so. I don't think he gets the credit he really deserves.

Kai and Arion. Can't forget Kai and Arion. Just wish they could get on more often, I miss them alot. They were always just nice and cheerful, and made you have a better day for having talked to them.

My apologies to anybody that I have forgotten. The entire shell has had a huge influence on me, and if not for you guys, I wouldn't be playing today.

BULL PHOOEY!!! have you read the Stri's a Goob thread!!! Wills is a huge jerk!!!!!^^

[Kai-N-Arion]

well ofcourse there are many ppl who have influenced me.
first and my favorite, my baby arion, if it wasnt for me nagging him and him telling me to shut up and just play, i would have never began this wonderful journey i call rockhak/PIF.
ofcourse rock and hak where there from the begining and were such a posotive influence. they helped me do a lot in the begining, the most fun was getting my kazam keys when rock let me get jumped in the outpost. lol j/k.
josk who has been there from almost the begining, when we met in the maze, we would always race to see who could level first and finish missions. thanks for all the parties josk!
Val just because I love him (as a friend arion) hes always there for me. and always listens.
Timm just for being great! For being so unselfish, he inspires me to help other people out whenever i can.
and i cant forget IK because hes the admin. and i dont wanna piss him off. j/k j/k..... because he is all knowing and because he is a plethara (dont spellcheck me) of info.
before i start listing everyone just a thank you to original crew of rockhak for all the influence and support. and a thanks to all the newbs...i mean new ppl...i will encounter, when i finally get to play, for putting faith in PIF

[Stilgar]

While all the regulars on the shell make it on of the best parts of the game for me, two people have made the biggest impact.

Rockra brought me into both Rockhak and PayItForward and made me a sackholder in PIF. He shows respect for all and is an excellent and tolerant leader.

Ikonic is a wealth of information whether here on the forum or on the shell. If you have question, Ik knows the answer or knows where to find it.

Although I don't like to see anyone absent from the shell, these are the 2 people I believe make up the heart (Rock) and brain (Ik) of the shell and we, the body would die off without either one of them. Thanks for everything you both do.

[Striveldt]

to summarize Stil's post:

Rock is a big dumb galkan with who is a huge softy

Ik is a cold-hearted bastard who knows his sh1t

[Striveldt]

hey hakky hakaroo. im glad i gave you somethin to do...even if it was keeping my ass for dying, or telling me i was an idiot ^^ eitherway, you're my mentor, i look up to you, and i strive to be all that you are (well, almost all^^)

[Wills]

look out Hak its "Single Hume Dark knight". Thank god I am a DRG. Hak, ever think you would have a Stalker?(-->Stri). Scary deal. Run Hak, Run!
