So how has Graal changed/influenced/affected your life?
 

I saw a thread like this on GameFAQs once, so I decided to bring it here and see what responses would be like.

Has Graal gotten you a job (Elk)? Did you make your first friend on Graal?

Personally, it hasn't done much for me except make me much less bored since there's virtually nothing to do around my town lol

Before Graal, I was just another loser who never got their ass kicked by Kaimetsu. Now I'm a loser who's had their ass kicked by Kaimetsu.

I was an internet loser who typed with crazy abbreviations and formatting. Graal helped me become a real life loser with knowledge of the cyberuniverse and also good grammar maybe too.

Graal gave me a reason to try pixel art.

GS1 was the first programming language I learned (unless you count TrueBASIC, which is hardly programming). I later learned Java, and some basic C++. I used my knowledge of Java to help me learn GS2, and with my knowledge of GS2, I've learned PHP.

So, Graal has really affected my life. Perhaps if I hadn't played Graal, I wouldn't be a loser who is always up in his room programming ^^

You're saying Graal destroyed your social life?

Internet in general does that.

It's hard to destroy something you never had, which was the case with me. I started programming at like age 7 with GS1 >_<

im social i haz myspace

As he said! =)

Graal got me into Graphics Design as a whole, but I was always good at art so...maybe I would be some mechanic right now if it wasnt graal that influenced my fate =)

I'm thankfull ^^ now I'm going to be a graphics designer and earn some nice cashmonies instead of working in some shop! yay XD

Graal has got me far, yes :) and it still helps, I got quite alot of paid jobs (highest was 800$ for a tileset) but I declined since I don't know how much im worth (have no clue about pixelartprices D:)...and I did some graphics for money aswell :D

I had friends in real life but Graal made me ditch them, I guess thats the price :) hehe
But online friends are cooler, gotta be carefull who to pick tho...

wat

He kicks yours, you kiss his?

Graal helped me with programming from gcript.
I've done some gfx editing because of graal too, I suppose.

Just keeping the legend alive until I can become a winner.

Graal has greatly honed my communicational skills on the professional level and, in going with that, management in general. Also peaked my interests as far as sociology and business are concerned, lol. Developing random stuff is fun, too, and brought out my creative side. :)

Graal has made me an angry and bitter person. I'm short with pals. Shorter with fools and I lack the desire to do anything creatively anymore.
