Its that time.. Ol james is quitting in 2 weeks. I've had a good time on Graal. Been playing this game since I was 13. First started out on Unholy Nation with all my IRL friends.. Played that for about 6 months and they lost interest.. Well I didn't.. ended up getting a P2P. My first one, elite_master. Got started on Era in about 03. I remember logging on the first time and it being winter and me thinking how awesome the game looked. I thought a drill was to kill people haha. I then found out about UC servers and found Atrius. At the time madj was owning it working with gman and drogankid. Fell in love with the server and I found out you could develop. So I started to level. Got hired. Then eventually I ended up running Atrius. Tried to get Atrius off the ground for the longest time but didn't to well. I was involved with drugs/drinking/partying pretty bad around the age of 15 or so and I didn't pay much attention to it. It came up and failed quite a few times but I still think its the best UC server out there. If Stefan actually paid attention to servers that made could potentially make him money, well alot more development would occur. Anyways. I'm 20 now. Been playing this game for too long. I go back to college at the end of August. I'll be working two jobs and i'm currently running my own computer repair business. It's time i've left this game.
Over my years of playing, I just can't get over how unfair Graal is. Im not complaigning, because it has worked out in my favor quite a bit.. But it really isn't a fair game.. There is no "end" to the game.. Its about friendships and socializing, and of course the gameplay. It is a very unique game.. Keeping players addicted for years
(I personally think we should file a lawsuit against Stefan for unwarned addictions in this game ). Anyways it really isn't fair. If you make/have friends that are staff, you are golden. Also i'd like to bring up the PWA. Really it is rough as hell to get a server off UC and onto Classic. There is no help/support for it.. and when you think you are good enough, you get critiqued so crazy like its like the PWA are looking for reasons to shoot you down. I've seen it with ALOT of servers. 7 Years and i've only ever seen 2 servers make it to the classic list. Hm, ah well. It seems complaints on this game never go anywhere. There are alot of underage/childish players who just like to ridicule. I've never seen anything like it.
Anyways. I'd like to give a shoutout to all those who have impacted me in my Graal years. It's been a helluva trip. I've wasted over a year on this game throughout 7 years. I could of made over $50,000 with my hours spent on Graal if I would have worked. Oh well the past is the past, I can't do anything about it.

I hope I didn't miss anyone. Anyways. It's been a blast! I'm still around for 13 more days if ya wanna say goodbye. But I figured i'd post this now :]
Pictures of my favorite items etc.. And don't mind the "hey facebook" pic from Atrius haha
