I don't even remember what server I was on on EQ2 lol... I guess EQ is just the easiest to remember.. I remember the first 5 minutes I was playing.. created a human paladin (yeah yeah they sucked! but I didn't know that lol), someone handed me a fine steel 2 hander.. I didn't know how to go into the inventory screen to equip it.. ended up dropping it and boomba's pickle making punk ... picked it up!

My second character.. my main in eq 1 and 2.. was Gormadoc Uberscale.. an Iksar Shaman.. one of the first to become amiable to the paladins in north freeport... (I literally killed sgt slate 1000s of times lol). Ah the memories!

Ahh, I was only on Cazic for about 24 hours during the second round of server transfers, they sent my toons from Fennin Ro to Cazic, instead of to Innoruuk where I wanted to go back to LOL. I played on Crushbone in EQ2.

I despise the red wings.. stemming back from the mid 90s.. always been a penguins fan! =)

I hate the Detroit Red Wings...

Anaheim Ducks, CLIPPIN WINGS since 2003.

My avatar stems from the somewhat anonymity of my username. I'm VERY well known on other boards(mostly hockey related) by a different name.

Haha yeah, my first toon was a high elf enchanter named Serianna... Talk about torture... Once I started raiding though... MAN talk about fun! 12 to 16 hours of non stop heartbeat pounding... I remember my first run through Kithicor, I was sitting on the edge of my seat sweating. I must have died 20 times that night, I lost 2 entire levels!

Hello all,

How did you come up with your forum name? or your avatar

Mine..... I got hooked on Stargate Atlantis (Netflix) I know I'm a geek lol

ZPM or as they called it zed-pm is a zero point module a valuable power source in the series.

My avatar is from my other hobby, remote control helicopters.

I chose my screen name because it's what I do for a living and my avatar is my new favorite sci-fi character. I've been a Stargate fan since the first movie came out. So, yeah, I'm proud to be a geek. If we could hook up a zpm with a Boge 510 LR carto and an old liquid fuel tank from the space shuttle program for a juice tank, we would have the ultimate mod.

I never raided but once or twice on equal 1. Was on one of the higher end raiding guilds on eq2 for a bit but being on est and all them on PST was killing me!! Theyd be done by like 9 but it was 1 for me. Ugh.

Back to eq1. Yeah. Hated the corpse runs on an unbroken plane run...

Oh hi, a fellow Rift player lol.

I know my username is from an MMO character I had, I think it is originally stolen from a fantasy book originally though - can't remember which one.

Oh well :)

Yeah, I'm over on Lagsbane (wolfsbane) defiant side, Serianna of course!

Gormadoc, Yeah, raiding in eq1 was intense, and places like VP in eq2 really took me back to the good ole days, its too bad it was made F2P :(

I'm strange in that regard:

Ovechkin fan who likes the Penguins
Bruins fan who also likes the Habs
Ducks fan who doesn't hate the Kings (This actually is not that odd, the only hatred in the "rivalry" is Kings againsthating Ducks, it's very one-sided. Ducks California Rival is the Sharks)

OK, let's be honest, I just love hockey. ;)

I played with a Serianna, pretty sure it was a different server - also defiant though. Character was Dreyhana.

Quit Rift a while back - starting with Tera tomorrow :D

(ok, thread derailment complete - sorry!)

I love SG Atlantis! I have already watched the series once and am now working my way through it again. SG1 is also a lot of fun too, although the last two seasons, 9 and 10, really took a dive (still some serious LOL moments in those seasons though). Both SG1 and SG Atlantis are just written so stinking well; very witty, brilliant, humorous and memorable. IMO these two series are right up there in pure awesome one-in-a-million TV show quality as Seinfeld, Babylon 5 and Futurama (first 4 seasons, before they brought it back).

I tried watching SGU (Stargate Universe) but is was more of a drama/soap opera and I just couldn't stand it. I didn't even make it through the first episode before realizing that it was pure crap.

Funny quote from Atlantis for those who understand the context:

McKay: "We need the ZedPM to power the gate."
O'Neill: "Huh?"
Daniel: "Zee-Pee-Em. He's Canadian."
O'Neill (to McKay): I'm sorry



As for my name and avatar, well I am a computer guy and I also like snakes (especially pythons, I had a ball python growing up and since then I have had an affinity for snakes).

Bartlesville, OK
Uhh... my husband is a self-proclaimed geek. He actually came up with the moniker when we first got married. I'm forever having to explain to indignant, self-righteous ninnies that HE was the one who picked the name, I'm not a mean wife! He's proud of his geekdom. So proud, that his universal user name is also related to his geekiness.

The av... that's our dog, Jasper. He's a cute pain in the rear. But he's cute... did I mention he's cute?
