It would be nice if you held a party for the new arrivals - 5/4/06

My goodness! We've got all kinds of new faces popping up in the city these days. True, they're actually old faces--but now they're seeing this place with new eyes.

I hope you folks who've been around for a while will take some time to show the new kids the ropes. Sure, you're all big, tough operatives now, but I remember when you first got here; know what you looked like? Just like some of these new people coming in today. Seeing this place for what it really is can be pretty overwhelming at first. Think back--you'll remember.

It's a little better these days, maybe; they've worked out some of the kinks. But that doesn't mean the new people wouldn't appreciate a helping hand. Remember the great friend who first came along and gave you a hand up? You can be that person for someone else, now. That's how you make a difference in this world.

I want to thank Seymour, xCareBearx, and LightingLdr180 for helping get welcoming parties started in Parallaxis for the new arrivals. We could use more folks like those three. Because maybe, if we do this thing right, some of these new faces will help us save this big ball of ones and zeros we call home. Or at least, we'll have fun trying.

(((I've been in this game ever since it was released into the stores. I would love to know how I can find out when these events go down. SMILEY

I guess you would have to have no life to be "In-Game" 24/7 to actually find out... Ha.)))

On another note.. I'll get that cookie one day.. One day indeed...

#35000002466 05/06/2006 00:19:48 Re: It would be nice if you held a party for the new arrivals - 5/4/06

I wish I wish I was there then...hmmm thats why mara was almost empty.....d'oh.

#35000002467 05/06/2006 00:25:29 Re: It would be nice if you held a party for the new arrivals - 5/4/06

heh, that was the oracle at her best. It's nice to see her welcoming the new faces. and lightning threw a great party!

#35000002468 05/06/2006 00:36:39 Re: It would be nice if you held a party for the new arrivals - 5/4/06

Did the Oracle call someone a hoe?

Anyway,

Someone tell Chadwick to write in a gratuitous 20 minute fight scene with the Oracle in it. That would be unforgettable.

I'm surprised I didn't see a "Ask a vet/kissing booth" hehe. Man, it's getting late.

I don't know about holding a party but any new players that read this, my friend(s) are prepared to answer any Qs you might have @ Mara Central - Recursion.

Just say, "I have a question" and we'll /t (tell) you.

#35000002470 05/06/2006 01:12:38 Re: It would be nice if you held a party for the new arrivals - 5/4/06

I admit, it's not really the way I like to see character appearences ... it's kinda disillusioning. Or maybe a bit "commercial". SMILEY

But if the others have fun with it...

#35000002471 05/06/2006 01:16:06 Re: It would be nice if you held a party for the new arrivals - 5/4/06

It was good to see you again Oracle! I have missed you and hope to see you again soon. I think we all could use some advice and direction that only you can provide.

#35000002472 05/06/2006 01:45:06 Re: It would be nice if you held a party for the new arrivals - 5/4/06

I think I missed out on that one because I was coding to a deadline for my coursework :smileysad:

Still, looks like you had a lot of fun. And HCFrog/Rarebit ... Since when have we 'gotta make due without Neo'? SMILEY

Heh

I think both are technicaly correct. Shame I had to miss it. The Oracle's one person I still have't had a chance to meet.

((Don't fret, Rarebit, old women often slur their words. And you know that the Oracle is bound to slur something with all that cigarette ash stuck between her teeth. Good job on the multiple server appearance, though! And Congratz to Dark Evolution...again....again.....*wonders if he made a mistake in switching to Recursion*))

With the Oracle to help the Newpills in, I'm sure they will find their footing much quicker. But she can't visit all the time, so let's take it upon ourselves to help them out whenever they need it!

./dap rarebit/HCfrog ... even tho i missed it, it looked fun , i knew i shoulda logged on last night :smileysad:

((This is pretty cool. Imagine a new player as they first jack in, with all those doom and gloom preconceptions about the game, and how the LET don't exist anymore. And then WHAM! There's the Oracle herself! SMILEY

The real question would be...Do they appreciate it? I mean since they werent looged on before, they prolly dont understand the value of it.

I lost my cool.
