And now, for something completely different

[Muirtach]

Greetings and salutations. My name is Earl (insert snickers and queries about the status of mustache and/or "The List"), some of you might know of me through such postings as "Your guild is a bunch of gobbledy-gooks for not waiting until live like the rest of us" or "Rust Puppy, is he really that bad of a guy (probably)" perhaps you were even fortunate enough to discover me in my early works "Speed it's what makes you not want to have dinner" or "Bollocks, I forgot what I was supposed to say her (it was really good, trust me). Others might recognize me as that fagabond guy, though I removed myself from that in order re-evaluate my situation upon this server.

Where was I?

Oh yes, the point!

This game is an entity which has entrapped a portion of my soul for the last two years. When I started I was a novice at all this. Through some unlucky stroke of miraculous tragedy I accomplished the worthless notes you see in my signature. But before that I became frustrated with the idiocies and..., well really that was pretty much it, of people and their claims of this game being their identity and absurdities of that nature.

So I left my first guild and in a failed attempt. No that is not right. It was not failed, it was an experiment and if an experiment goes off the plan which it was assumed to take it is an experience not a failure. Still, I created a guild which through some mistake of circumstance became quite large and well known. As mentioned in an alluding factor moments before this did not proceed in the manner originally perceived nor intended. Though I regret not a moment of it and the fun I had. I attempted, horribly, to correct the errors of my leadership. At the end I realized what it was I had truly intended and how to accomplish that. (Bored yet? Good. Then stop reading) The Vagabonds, god I hate Bloodshot for that acronym, will always hold a dear place in my heart, but now it is time for me, and perhaps you, for something completely different.

With that in mind I present, Anchorage.

It is not a guild (Okay in the sense which the game names it that there is, but bear with me. You've come this far you sadist). There is no hierarchy, there is no leadership, there are no egos nor power struggles or sleeping with wives (and if there is, you are a bad person. bad, coming from a half decade celibate. BAD!!!!! (((((this is where you laugh pretending that we just shared a moment)))))). there are no requirements, though I may lean on you to be an idiot with me and play around with the Abbot properly, there are no expectations. By Khyber (see I can even roleplay), there is nothing more than a place to rest and restore ourselves in the midst of the game or real life which may be beating down on us.


My name is Earl, or Shin or you poxy git and I open the doors of Anchorage to you. (fully expecting to fall on my face, but hey what's life without some laughter and challenge right? (if you don't get that really, please, I beg of you, stop reading))

******* all typos are strictly the fault of the bottle of Rosenblum and the four glasses of Oban I had with my solitary dinner tonight*************Oh and my still sprained wrist****8*8888****

[Therbjorn]

[Muirtach]

I AM ALIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Shin? I love you man! You have been a really good friend for about 2 years. I have enjoyed you and the "Vagabonds" as you built it and envisioned it produced one of the top / premier guilds on the server. My characters are frequently seen stopping and saluting any member of IFV (for that matter any member of FotGN too) that I see. Let me explain to you my salute. I am in the Navy. The salute is a way we render honors. It is a simple way that we show respect / honor to others that is deeply seated in military tradition. It means a great deal to me to salute you and yours. The IFV has always been good friends of the Hulks. Any guild that you are in / leading / or running with will always be highly regarded by me. You're one of the good ones, Earl.
That said. You're post made me kind of feel like I was listening to Eeoyre inviting piglet, pooh and rabbit to sit with him in his "gloomy place". Because I know you, I know how enjoyable being a part of Anchorage would be. If I didn't know you, I'd be kind of turned off. Not trying to pick at you. Just letting you know, because I like you, and I care. Good luck.

I am Climon Puddles and that's what I think!

[Sambvca]

I'm pretty sure Dragoneis is too young to drink, but I think you're on the same meds...

Good luck though

You better hold your head up high big guy, you've made a positive impact on many people you will probably never meet.

The solitary reason I joined IFV was, well, Earl. Most know I'm loyal to a fault, so having said that I now weigh my situation. Are my loyalties with Earl or IFV?

*raises one hand chest level* Earl. Imperfect. Like EVERYONE. But a solid friend, down to earth and fun to hang out with. ..and a crazed brother to boot!
*raises the other hand* IFV as it currently is. Filled to the brim with many great and long time freinds, diverse playstyles, beautiful women , a wealth of knowledge and common sense (most of the time), a sense of purpose and solid leadership.

I'll take Door B Alex. Loyalty to many is greater than loyalty to one.

Seriously Shin- THANKS for what you have done and continue to do. Thelanis is a better place for it.

*jumps in thread*
*stomps around*

Dammit!

We got Shins new guild, the new Ironwolf guild, and I see what looks like The Chosen getting back together....

How the hell is Indago supposed to recruit anyone?

Shin, you're insane. Drith is insane too, and his blood alcohol concentration might even rival your own. It's the perfect love match. Maybe it's time for a little Shindago?

Don't answer that yet. You need to get drunk first.

[tihocan]

Don't answer that yet. You need to get drunk first.

He must be ready to answer then, judging by the OP

Best of luck Shin!

[Muirtach]

No luck or anything needed guys. I'm not recruiting. Just offering a place for people to get away from whatever might be frustrating them for a little bit and get their heads straightened out.

Flame knows I needed it from time to time.

[Muirtach]

I'll try and log in for a few minutes for you tonight from my buddy's place. It's D&D night tonight then riding bikes drunken down a mountian with no brakes

[Generals]

Don't break your other wrist.

Oban is a Highland malt, not an Islay you Poxy Git!!

[Muirtach]

Oban is a Highland malt, not an Islay you Poxy Git!!

True, but I did not have any Oban at home and had to move to Caol Isla when I came back from my meal.
