Hey guys - I'm new-ish.
I started here on Leika RO a little under a week ago. Wanted to make sure this would be a regular thing before I got all formal.
You probably have seen me puttering around on my Huntress Eirin or my merch Ripley. Shout-out to Layla and the warm welcome she gave on my first night!
I started on RO back in 2003 on a 2x private server that was updating content straight from kRO and also indulged in custom tweaking of things much like Leika seems to be doing. I admit it was a bit of nostalgia that nudged me to try you guys out. I haven't seriously played RO much since the 3rd jobs and other worlds hit iRO. So, basically I haven't really explored much content past the release of Rachel and the Odin isle with Valk.
I've been blown away by the sheer mass of new stuff goin' on - RO seems to have caught up to other MMOs a little bit with mounts and a (albeit finicky ) Quest window. I am looking forward to exploring some new dungeons and making ALL OF THE HATS. However I am not sure how often I will get to hang out with others. My work schedule is pretty wonky - Tues-Saturday at 2pm to 10pm CST (-6 GMT). I did manage to tug my SO into playing a little as well. So if you run into Starsiege, Mentos or Cisco I apologize in advance .
I love animals - I share my space with a dog, two cats and a corn snake. I am a big Star Trek fan (I recently got to go to the EMP museum in Seattle, WA to visit the 50th Anniversary Exhibit there). I also really enjoy puns to a sinful degree - I blame my childhood of staying up to watch british comedies on PBS (Fawlty Towers, Are You Being Served, Red Dwarf - anyone?). Not sure what else to put here in my little intro. I guess I'll end it with a question/poll:
In the past when I spent time on a server I liked to offer out a little farming service. I like having multiple goals for motivation. Do you feel there's room for such a thing here? Hat Ingredients? Potion requirements?
