Thread: Disillusioned Anarchy Online Players (New Org name)

  1. #1

    Lightbulb The Disillusioned

    I am creating a new org for players who get bored with the content funcom gives us. It's on org for all types of players, except flamers and fanboys. What is imporant is the facts. Most of us have personal stories of how they became Disillusioned of the true nature of AO and FC. I'm sure that everybody who has played alot has their own story.

    This is my story, and new members should post theirs.

    I started AO like a child. Seeing the rays of light streaming through a tree in the backyard of newland. The polished nature of AO exploded my mind/imagination. So much to learn, so much to experience, so many people. I have lived many different lives in AO. Gimped 73 NT, lvl 40 engineer that was a pure decus coat seller/buyer. LvL 132 Engineer that blitzed missions for battle suits and always wanted a few MPs. And finally, bored old man who sat in the middle of busy cities wanting to talk to people about the game, and having people just run on by to lvl up, even though I knew that it was pointless because I didn't care to kill a mob a second faster, and I knew that pvp was heavily imbalanced. After 45 man days of playing, there was nothing left for me. I quit AO, 7 months ago. Wiser, and Stunned, I ventured into RL. I exercised at 24 hour fitness. Biked around my town of Petaluma, California. (50 minuites north of Sanfrancisco). I watched the Independant Film Channel, and felt my existence through the muscles I newly acquired. Knowing I biked 30 miles a day, I felt I could accomplish anything. I started the SRJC around here, stopped exercising, and lost myself in the schoolwork. I got poor grades, but most of all I got cynical of the world. The corporate tv and radio which have gotten devoid of soul. I hear of starving people and that the lower 49% of the world population makes about a dollar a day. These things boggle my mind and make me feel helpless.
    It is christmas break. I have no good friends, no good things to do outside of the house, so I venture back into AO with a new account. Things are almost exactly the same, but I have a new goal. It is not to lvl, or "have fun" (because you can convince urself lvling is fun, when it really is lacking of anything substantial worthy of the effort/time). My goal is to challenge myself with learning, solving problems, and mostly, making friends that would prefer helping people around them than helping themselves. This is a world. It is not fair. I want to combat the injustices with unity which seems so hard to do in the world.

    Thanks for reading this far, and flame away! It only bumps my message. If I wanted infinite bumpage I should say that girls suck or that I'll give shades of lucubration to the last post lol. I can't fight this fight on my own. I need people to fight (play, lol) along side me to give my cause strength and myself validation.

    POST HERE!!!

    I wonder where he'll get recruits from...

    As far as I know, people who seriously hate the game, tend to quit it.

    ROFLMGDA!!!

    Seriously though, I think this topic is a total insult. If you hate the game quit, if you dont quit then quit lying. You love this game and can't get enough..

    to quote Haminie.. "ZAH!"

    and stuff

    Just a thought here, Omar: If you feel that the world outside AO is in such a bad shape, why do you get back on AO (which you say is lacking in content) when you have creative skills that COULD be put better to use in the real world?

    And the day that simulation games and other online stuff is identical and as rich as real life, is the day the real world is no more.

    Im partially addicted to AO, and I know my own subtle ways of comparing AO to the real world. Maybe you can recognize yourself in this statement? "When AO falls short of real life, I get mad at FC for ruining my life."

    This is a game that aims at immitating real life, in a futuristic way. That is the best thing about this game, and also the worst - since it will hook people and the players will get addicted, and at the same time, will offer them FAR LESS than real life.

    At least you should face you are addicted, Omar. Seriously.

    well now, a guild of people, addicted to the game, yet hate it so much, that they band together to converse about it.


    save yourself the time, and go buy Morrowind already =)
