Welcome to our quiet, unheard and unannounced grand opening. You probably know us from other games, guilds or web sites. Back before The E3 Expo, we were and are playing a variety of online games while awaiting what ever may be the next Holy Grail to gaming. Ultima, EverQuest, Asheron’s Call, doing beta in a few closed games and currently trying to play the recently released games like World War II Online and Anarchy Online.
While writing on other sites we found a need to break away from the norm, expand our horizons and talk a lot more about other issues in gaming, other than how broke they are. Are we a rant site? No. Are we a news and info site? In a way, yes. Do we just cut and paste news and bugs? No. What we hope to become is one of the best community-minded gaming sites interacting with you the gamers and those who create our fictional worlds for us to interact in, in a mature and reasonable manner discussing issues and bringing to light the views of you, the gamer. Because all of us, from the community that enjoys gaming, be us the makers or players, we have one goal in common.
To enjoy ourselves.
Feel free to take a look around and make yourself at home. Interact on our forums, take a swing by our polls, create a user account, and hey, submit articles that you would like to bring to the public’s attention.
As you can see, we knocked a lot of features out of the site, no matter how much planning can go into making a site like this, I don’t think it can ever be ‘finished.’ More features are going to be added and while we are new, and lacking in some content, rest assured we will only get larger, and better.
I would like to thank everyone who has been involved in the creation of this, our new home. Rann from KAAOS, Zalaster from The Spirit Lurkers, Sachant from the Undead Lords, and Vash from The Army of Blood Keep for insight and planning.
A huge thanks goes out to the folks at Entryx. If it were not for Dh and Volvagia of Final Fantasy Online, for the design and layout, as well as the constant tweaks they do for us, this site may of never got off the ground. You guys and your site rocks!
Lastly (I had to save the best for last) a very special thank you, goes out to Kaliaa, who has been a tremendous help, she has been working tirelessly on Aerynth trying to keep up with the updates, info, and guild interviews we do there, while maintaining a role as an officer in her guild, playing games (because that’s what we should be doing if we want to talk about games) and for helping set up the little things on this site.
Thanks Kaliaa!
Thanks as well to you, our readers or soon to be readers, this is a community-minded site, and we hope to do well by all you as we travel these rifts in online gaming!
