In random order:
Reddy: The truth is I never would have got anywhere in this game if you had not hit me when I was a small 300k army size guy and you were mister 700K I thought you were one of the biggest players in the game I know everyone laugh at my naivete but its true, you got me into NAOS and even though we have not spoken in over 3 years I still miss the days we used to spam up the NAOS forums and wreak havoc on the HC with our wacky ideas I miss you, you damn aussie
Systemj1: Joe I really don't even know where to start with you man, you were my best friend, CO, teacher, confidant and all around incredible person. You got me an already ascended account that was your brothers and never once did you look back, when I joined DoC and you followed me into the empire it felt like my family had moved in with me and there really is no greater honor to me, you mean the world to me Joe and if you ever find yourself back up in New England my door is always open. I hope you are enjoying the Florida heat hope to hit you up soon.
Andrei: You taught me how to mass, you gave me the principles that I still stick to in this game, I know you may not have realized it but you were the glue that held NAOS together when you left it wasn't home anymore.
Ra: Dude where do I even begin, honestly the best CO I could have ever asked for, you helped me without reservation and you defended me when I was not able to do so myself. You are a great guy and I am proud to have been friends with you
REK: For taking a chance on a relative unknown and letting me be the 2ic of DxM some of the proudest moments of my ingame experience were with the empire and part of me will always call it home.
JT: I don't care what anyone says, you are one of the best players this game has ever seen hands down and you would lay down your entire account if it meant keeping the empire safe, hell sometimes you do it just because it keeps you from being bored. You were a great mentor and I have nothing but respect for you, I know it can't be easy to step into REK's or Deni's shoes but you have done an incredible job.
FF: You are a sweetheart and i know we have had our issues in the past...mostly my issues if I am being entirely honest and I owe you an apology, I am sorry for the way I talked to you but hindsight is 20/20 its easy to see mistakes made I just wish I had seen them before hand I would not have lost such a good friend.
Juliette/Lois: You are like the older sister I never had, it is a rare occasion that I meet someone I like instantly, and something about you made me like you immediately not once since then have I regretted becoming your friend I just wish we talked more often
Pops: I don't even know how to classify you man, you and I fight like brothers sometimes but at the end of the day I am proud to call you my friend.
Apademek: You are completely insane man, and I mean that in the best possible way, I like to think our spam battles are legendary but in reality I know that our battles hold nothing to those of old I hope to see you lurking around here again.
Buck: Why oh why did we never cross paths! 'tis a shame that our roads n'er led us to the same destination, we are like two ships passing in the night only noticing each other when it is far to late
Semper: Shauny man you are probably the most true role player on these forums as anyone who talks to you on MSN can attest to, you are in all actually a nice guy but shh that is a secret. I am glad I found someone with whom I can wage an intellectual debate without it turning into a sess pool.
Caprila: Why did you leave
real life can not really be better! that is preposterousEarry: Mah bffl you know how much you mean to me words would fail to justify it
Empy: I know I call you a she all the time but in truth you have been an honest and steadfast friend, despite your temper or maybe because of it I know you will be there for me and that alone makes you a good person but even more than that you actually give a **Filtered** about people.
Jack: You are my cousin quite literally in fact, it sucks you live in texas and I in New England but one of these days we will get together and probably get thrown in jail for our antics.
Solus: Oh hai der Matty I know you...*pokes the soul* I am not even going to justify you with words anyone who knows you feels exactly the same way I do. You are one of the most compassionate and honest people it has ever been my good fortune to know and despite what you might think you are an incredible person, never listen to the nay sayers they just can't understand someone with a soul as rich as yours <3
SS: You still smell funny and you forced me to be in HVE *glare* but its ok I actually have come to like it here actually I feel like I belong here its so spamalicious
Osi: Come back! That is a command.
Tetrismonkey: Josh you are always going to be second in Matts affections *glare* <3
Almost: Dude i have known you from the beginning and I think we will both be around when the game finally dies.
Angelos: I stole Ang from you and there is nothing you can do about it you IRC lurker
Sephiroth: You are my Kage Bunshin and you turned me on to Naruto and Bleach lol without you I probably never would have gotten into them or Full Metal Alchemist once I get MSN you know you will not have a moments peace
To anyone I failed to mention I am sorry, if we were close then trust me you mean a lot to me, these are just the people I happened to think about while writing this hell I know I am missing people but that is the nature of this game old friends come and go, and as much as it hurts me to say, one day all of us will go I can only hope that we have all made a lasting impression on the others and that wherever we all go in the future we remember the lessons that we all learned playing this text based game.
