ok so they finally got around to playing with the professional program again.
in the stuff that kintaii posted it said that you have to write some kind of "campaign speech". after spamming him in PM's a lil he said it could be anything ya want to "motivate" people.
so i figured i'd write a little history about myself.
here goes.
i started playing on the 2nd of june in 2006 on rimor. I rolled a soli NT and got her to 11 in 3 days (awesome, i know)
on the 5th of june i switched to Atlantean and once again rolled an NT (ellarisa) which i played for quite a while. my NT on rimor hasn't done any leveling since.
2-3 weeks later my engineer (darkellarisa) was born (22nd of june if i remember correctly).
i dont remember the exact reason why i rolled her, but i think it was cause it looked quite fun.
over the next few months i rolled various alts while leveling most of em a bit.

the next change was somewhere mid november of 2006, when i finally decided to get the expansions. my engineer was around level 110 at the time.
about a week after i got expansions i set foot in SL for the first time, guided by my friend Irna.
on the 3rd of december i did my first AI raid on my engineer and got my first ai level!
on the 8th of december i got picked off of LFT for an ai raid by an alt of fixalated and bitsmack in Aristocracy's city.
i raided with em for quite some time (3.5 months) till i finally decided to level up some more.
at this point i was using a bathrobe, T1 armor, a CR, a 200ish VTS and a set of untyped kyr pistols (ql 89/170ish). symbs werent all that bad, but not all that great either (didnt do any real big twinking).

on my road to higher levels i also started looking around the forums and ofcourse started reading the forums.
it is at this point that i started caring a lot more about DD and twinking (i blame muhandes
)
at 180 i did my very first solo ground raid, i remember dying 3 times, but i did get a gen!
after a lot of unsuccesfull ai raids i decided to level up to 185 and buy myself sotos to help manage the agro (borrowed creds for this)
stayed at 185 for 2-3 weeks and got lucky when i got 2 supple bots in 1 weekend.
at this point i also managed to twink on a ql 210 eye and leg symbiant (not all that impressive, but a big accomplishment for me)
it is at this level that i also got a set of 175 ofab armor (except head) and a 175 pregrine. (BS actually ran at this level back then
)
next stop was 201 on the 19th of may 2007. at this level i got in a few ql 220 symbs and i got myself to ai 20.
while leveling up from 185 to 220 i kept soloing groundraids.
at level 205 i got in a bunsh of 230-240 symbs and upgraded my main hand weapon to a 250 peregrine mk6 (ql 175 in off hand)
next major stop is level 210, where i stayed for about 2 months.
at this level i got myself another 3 ai levels, upgraded my symbs to mostly 250s, got myself my first piece of ql 300 CC (a chest) and also got various things from pande with hellcom.
on the 5th of august 2007 i finally continued leveling until i hit 215 on the 11th.
here i stayed for 5 months and did quite a lot of things.
i got myself up to ai 26, finished all lvl 9 research and 2 or 3 level 10s.
i also upgraded my equipment.
i got another piece of ql 300 CC (pants) and 2 pieces of ql 223 CC (sleeve and helmet).
i upgraded my symbiants to all ql 270s except a 250 head symb.
i upgraded my weapons to a 300/250 peregrine combination.
i also managed to get my hands on a few intel symbs and some alba toys
at this level i also got myself up to 2.5k tokens (95% RK mishs
)

on the 30th of december of 2007 i decided to finally start leveling again and clean out my 7mil SK pool.
after a 40ish hour grind (with a small break here and there ofc) i managed to hit 220 on the 1st of january 2008 at 1 am european time
somewhere in the first part of 2008 i switched from dual peregrines to peregrine/bigburger (could be imep or amep combined with bigburger, not 100% sure)
on the 13th of april 2008 i put in a full set of ql 300 symbs after finally getting the aquarius gloves (i bid 500 points, paid 200ish for it
)
somewhere during the summer of 2008 i switched to an extermination occular (starting with a 256 one)
on the 9th of november 2008 i finally hit ai 30 after a small break.
at the start of this year after some drama i decided to create my own org and played without org beni's until instanced cities were released (not advised tbh)
i also trolled around test for a bit in the first part of this year and took a small break from ao just after LoX got released.
when i came back in got myself all the beta symbs and upgraded my intels to alphas and i upgraded my eoe to a ql 290. (was way too easy)

ok now the stuff that matters for the professional position:
- i love my engineer and it's imo the most fun profession of em all
- unlike what my reputation says and what people think, i do actually enjoy pvp once in a while and i'd love to have a pvp-viable setup without all the current drawbacks.
- i give most people a chance to prove themselves before they get classified as idiots or r
etards
- my pets think that solja legs are a delicacy
- i dont like TSkill monkeys
- one wall of text per day makes all frustrations go away!
enough rambling from me, time to get back to work
Greetings,
Ellarisa
edit: i outdid myself, extreme wall o.o
