Really NC? Really?

The NC team has announced that the North American Lineage servers will be brought down on June 29th, 2011. At this time Lineage will be done for good in this territory. I can understand the business decision behind this in some ways, but I think NC has handled the entire situation poorly. There is no offer to transfer characters to a different territory, and NC is not even going to assist players with trying to make a new account with any of the other territories that Lineage will continue to be played. I think the most upsetting part is not that Lineage is over. It is that Lineage is only over in North America. All of the other territories will continue to play and have updates for content for years to come. That is all I will say on that I guess.

Prior to the news of server shutdown my plan had been to level grind with some of my free time over the summer, and then join the main war on LOA. That obviously wont happen now, so most of the remaining time spent in game will be random fights and PvP.

Neighbor never had the uber-amazing items that some of the players from the start of LOA have, but my gears were at least decent, and I enjoyed it. No reason to hide level and stats anymore lol.


Vagisil whispered me during some fighting festivities and told me he had come over from DEP to have some fun at Top. Personally, I think this is pretty cool, and enjoy all the servers playing together and having fun with the little bit of time that we all have remaining. Even though he was fighting against me it was all in good fun. Then he started to trash my blog, and my pledge. What the hell? I never claimed to be some god of PvP, and will openly admit I am a noob. The blog is called NoobsRUs...

PurpleHaze was a group of friends that enjoyed gaming together. We fought on occassion, but that was a very small aspect of our gameplay. Are we noobs? Yes please!

You got cancelled at fights Vagisil? This annoyed you? I was getting cancelled too! Join the club...
I just don't see the point of trashing the community with so little time remaining haha. Why can't people just PvP and hunt for fun. Or move on and not bother at all. At least I attempted to add to the Lineage community by posting on this blog, and occassionally on the forums.

There has been tons of fighting since the announcement of the server closing. Teams keep switching back and forth. It is hard to keep track of who to hit or not hit because people are constantly changing pledges and sides etc. It has been fun though and I wish I had the chance to have leveled some more and joined a fighting pledge prior to Lineage getting shut down. There has been some trash talk too, but mostly just in good fun. A question mark here or there, or a 'why no venz' type remark. I think RushGirl counted wrong on this one and I thought it was funny. Looks like 2v1 to me, but I am tired so I don't know. My guess is that the other party member with me is LeChat. No offense to anyone else in my pledge, but LeChat is favorite person to fight with Lol. I always tried to come up with a name for our duo, but he never liked any of them...

Well fok off LeChat...LeBor for the win! Or NeiChat! Either way lol...




I would like to thank everyone that made Lineage fun for me. I will not name people specifically because there are too many to name. Too all of PurpleHaze and the people that ever said 'hi' or gave me tips and support along the way. Thanks for the good times^^. Maybe I will see you again down the road in another game or in real life. Until then I hope you all the best.



Most of my close in-game friends already have some of my contact information, but for anyone that would want to stay in touch or doesn't have that information already I made an email specifically for keeping in touch.



NeighborLOA@Gmail.com



I have lots of screenshots from the end of game fights that I have been saving up. I might make one last post dedicated to nothing except those fights, but I am not sure yet.



I have also looked in to playing Lineage on a Japanese server. I know a few other people have already moved over. If I do this then I might continue to post my adventures from over there. Or if I find a new game I might post that stuff too. Honestly I don't know what I will do though. Lineage is the only game I have played, so I might just call gaming quits and focus on other things now that I have graduated college..Graduation May 20th, 2011!



Stay golden~!

All Good Things...

Hi all,

The time has come... for all Lineage NA servers to close and be shut down permanently. You can read the news on the main page of the official website - www.lineage.com. The servers will be shut down during normal maintenance on June 29th, 2011. Until then you can still log in and play with the Experience Giver in Gludio and go on a PK spree if you would like. Or just log in and chat with friends that you came to know and love after so many years. I would like to thank everyone that I have met along the way for an unbelievable experience. Also, thanks to GMs Jetzen, Nyx, Unicycle, and crew for the last couple of years (could have been worse without you). From the time with my very first royal, Elysians, to my very last royal, Botnaked,
I have learned a lot in and out of the game through Lineage. I hope everyone had a memorable 10 years as well. This blog will no longer be updated with Lineage related stuff but it will be kept up for old times sake.

If anyone wants to keep in touch, my email is BloodOmen2010@gmail.com. I do play StarCraft2 and PS3 occasionally so feel free to hit me up if you want to game sometime. Or if you want to introduce me to another game, that is fine too.

As the saying goes, "All good things must come to an end." Take care everyone!

Regards,
Omen~

This is Caketown?

It is an awesome event right now, but nothing in this post is from the event. I had a lot of screens from before the event that I wanted to clear out. I will post about the event sometime after the next reset with some drops or something...that is assuming I get something worth posting haha.


On to the post~!

It is official....Boogler said it, so you know it is real.


Blog love.

I am not really sure this counts as blog love, but the fact he whispered me and had a smiley face makes me feel as though he enjoys the blog. But technically he only told me he saw it...




Some people took me up on the offer to use my name^^. I will keep posting these as long as people keep playing!


MaximisCoxis has caught me a few times. Sorry I was lazy in posting, but here they are max!

I hunted Ice Caves for a few runs with Talina and Holme. She dropped unbelievably poorly lol. This is her best from our time...Really NC? 2 lines? Boo...
I went L4 a few times before the event with Samoa and LeChat. We were bored and all decided to use Sharna Scrolls. I think a knight hunting with a dagger is the worst thing to look at in-game. Poke..Poke..Poke.

In Your Face Ralph!

Forge got me in a doorway. I thought he wanted to duel or show me something...then he stunned me. I was too slow to get the screen with the crown in it.

I got him back though. Lol Forge, all you do is bark...bark. bark. bark.

...cause he is in a dog polymorph.



That is all for now.


Until the event is over!


Throw 'em up!


????????? <----- Yeah, I threw them up.
