Such memories...

@[USER=91]Lachrymology[/USER] - While you may not be present and around anymore in my life ingame I shall never forget my first innocent steps into the server, there I was casting my name into general chat hoping that someone would pluck me up and take me in. Byzanthium was a lovely place, its setting and structure still remain with me to this day. The way you worked to elevate yourself in role-play rank within the faction spurred me into becoming in touch with the role-play scene. To this day I am eternally grateful for the aid I received during my time as a new player almost two years ago.

@[USER=94]Gwendyn[/USER] - Standing alongside Lach, you made up an essential force in driving my role-play career. In a time where the Oracle of Byzanthium was a character I looked up to as a guide, being at the time only a humble aspiring priest under you this time I spent getting to touch with how the server was developing its role-play when such thing was in its somewhat infancy in terms of it seeming quite contained within groups and not a main focal point. Both Gwen and Lach were instrumental in my move to being less frightened of conversing over TS and Skype, I still have trouble sometimes, however I feel that it is their efforts that really spurred me on to being more open.

@[USER=36]ulumulu1510[/USER] - Another person who is no longer around, but as the owner of 9th Legion at the time and another person with a similar themed faction to Byzanthium it was common to see him around, at the time he brought a lot of role-play opportunities to my attention, as well as helping me grow as someone who would come to devote themselves entirely to role-play for some time. As well as convincing me to try my hand at staff involvement you helped me get the determination to start speaking for myself, a quality that I sometimes lack, but attribute my improvement to my early time on the server.

@[USER=173]Gabriel[/USER] - It took me some time to come out of the shell that contained me within my first two factions during my time on the server, however as soon as the forums appeared and role-play was beginning to blossom it was here I met you "Baron" at the time. It didn't take long to see we had a similar passion for role-play, a passion that led to the formation of the original role-play staff, and for that I am immensely grateful. During our experience together I come to love your characters and writing, both inside and outside of the role-play scene, there are stories you showed me that I still have that bring back such wonderful memories and are partly the reason I attempted to improve my own writing. (One in general you may remember was a story about two lovers trapped in a flooding facility, only one escaped and the writing still seems as close as it was when you first showed it to me.) Recently you've inspired my continual strive to get better at art, something I've always admired about you was your brilliant art most of which is treasured in folders on my desktop.

@[USER=1388]Posidem[/USER] - Credited with the original template for the magic lore and one of the people I looked up to in my infant stages upon MassiveCraft. Here was someone who attempted to bring order to the chaos of the old system of forum role-play, it was both an interesting journey we shared and I hope an entertaining one. I'll always thank you for your support when the two of us were one of the few role-play staff on the forums, it was truly a pleasure for the time I was in close contact with you.

@[USER=2777]Faewyn[/USER] - Need I explain myself? The role-play scene on the server took a dramatic turn for the positive upon your entry. Not only did I pack up by bags from my faction to leave for Osai for the purpose of meeting you, but I actively tried to learn from every interaction that came about. Faewyn to me symbolizes not only a personal turning point, but one for the server as a whole. It was truly an honor to be in your company to learn how to improve my skills and become a better person because of it.

@LadyHeretic - Once the most evilest of evils the server had ever seen! At the time I was always weary of you, your immense dark energy that surrounded you as you brought about some interestingly devious situations. I took the time to learn all sorts of things from you, albeit from a distance, I took a great deal in terms of learning how fear and other negative emotions built character and that a steadfast optimist is not always the most interesting of individuals.

@[USER=2689]Corn Alriena[/USER] - Alongside Baron you stand as one of the people in what I assume is my middle point of my life on the server up until fairly recently who was genuinely a good friend and positive force for me. In terms of both writing and role-play on the forums it was a pleasure to be around you and to draw upon what you knew to improve myself. (Let's not forget that "Team Super Frying Pan" was quite clearly the best!)

@[USER=1829]ravenwolfthorn[/USER] - Having been around for a while I've watched people come and go quite a bit, however upon coming onto my radar and field of interaction you've persistently maintained an excellent friend during my time here on the server. Be it ingame or on the forums I knew that your aid was always available and you were happy to give it to me, it is rather nice to think that for the time we have known one another that such has been able to be taken from myself in that I feel that I've definitely gained a lot from our experiences together.

@[USER=415]BabaManga[/USER] - Exalted walrus queen of Avgard and constant source of both lightheartedness and professionalism. From my first rather more intimidating encounter with you where I had joined Avgard and was immediately thrown into a plot and eventually courtroom, to the current help you give out willingly and without a word of complaint to me whenever I have any sort of issue. I am eternally grateful for not only taking the time to acknowledge me, but to stand as a model role-player that I've admired all the way through the time I have known you, I've learnt a lot and it is humbling to continue to be able to learn from you. I am most grateful for all the time you've spent in my company (however painful my stupidity can be at times!) and for all that you have done.

@[USER=13]MonMarty[/USER] - This should go without saying really, I am grateful for Marty for a number of reasons. His move to improve the role-play scene on the server was most appreciated and all things post this shift I feel are underpinned by that moment. While I don't often feel that I'm in any way comparable to you, I do think that you deserve credit for keeping me on the path of the role-player and maintaining a constant professional attitude and willingness to help people improve. I know I certainly learnt a lot while being around Alex Kade during the time of one of my very early characters, and I am most thankful for such.

@RPStaff - All of you are wonderful people, from three they have increased dramatically in both quality and function. It has been an honor to bare witness to such change, even while I may not have been able to pluck at specific instances I am confident that all of you deserve a note of thanks here, thank you for all you have done, all you will do, and to anything in the future.

@MrsBaver - You were the talk of legends, the spawn of nightmares. However this character was one thing that kept me constantly interested whenever she showed up, sometimes I was rescued from her distraction, other times I was forced to hide. It is things like this that have stuck in my up until now that make me appreciate that the past version of myself took a lot from the occurrence of things like this. Hence I shall have to thank dear Mrs.Baver for all the terror she brought, hopefully she doesn't now come and eat me for such words!

@Everyone - I can't express this enough, I've been around for just over two years now and it is so difficult to pick out specific things that have occurred during this time. However, anyone and everyone that I've ever encountered on this server has aided me in some way. Even those who have purposely tried to do me harm, it has only been a learning curve that in the long run I've come to appreciate. All of you who I've ever spoken to, I am thankful for everything you have done, and I hope that some day I'll be able to help you in the same way.

This list is in no way complete, I am so sorry for those I've missed off, but as you can see I've really been thinking back a long way and sometimes it puts a toll on ones ability to assess things that have occurred in between. Regardless I am most greatful to all of you no matter what you have done, because just by being here and participating in MassiveCraft have you given something special to me.

~ Thank you ~
