I am writing this book in no order or for no reason. I was reading some shitty news posts and decided to jot down some of my thoughts. I could be studying now so listen to what I put my time into :). When you read this realize this is just my thoughts and if anything is incorrect I don't really care. Don't tell me I am an idiot or somthing I said was wrong. Okay here it is, a book about not much of anything but bat stuff. A friend of mine told me about BatMUD 3 years ago I think...maybe a little less. I had never Muded before. I did not know what to expect. So I dialed onto his account and on a slow 2400 baud modem logged into WVnet (where I used to live) He had to tell me everything I needed to type, like at the dollar sign to type telnet pallika or what ever the address was back then. By the way this friend of mine is Aryhn. So I get on BatMUD. As I said I didn't know what to expect. He even walked me through how to create my character. Of course I had played D&D before so I decided not knowing much of anything to be an elven thief, Aries was my name (if you remember me as an asshole remember I was a newbie and did not know what I was doing) So in the thief guild I looked around, typed search a lot of times. Anyway I did not even know about studying/training skills. I knew how to use bat command though. Anyway I found my way outside the closet and wandered around, I heard people talking (like on bat/sales/ect) and I thought they were in the room with me, but I did not see them! I did not understand the concept that those people were not in the room with me, I mean I can hear them talking, whats going on?! Anway I am a level 1/1 thief with 30k xp on me and find my way outside the city. I ran into a panther or somthing and got killed. At the time I did not know the person who offered to ress me (I wish I could remember who it was) was not in the room with me. He relocated to me I think but I did not understand. Anyway he finally ressed me and I killed a bunch of stuff and just kept the exp on me. I must have had 300k+ on me and did not do anything with it. I would just whine and bitch on bat for people to give me a weapon and would go hack away at thing, I do not remember what. Shalak I think his name was gave me a Gleaming sword I think it was, he also gave me some armour. Anyway he awhy I was still level 1. Well I didn't know where or how to advance. He showed me and told me how to get to the guild warp room. I got level 9 or 10 I think and then went to the thief guild, don't think I trained anything besides backstab to like 10%, anyway I joined Paladins (Paladin thief I know :) Aries was fucked up to say the least. I pissed people off for a while as Aries and created Maliki. (That name will set off a few sparks too I bet) Okay this is a funny part. I was a merchant in the begining, I got level 5/5 or somthing and the lag was picking up. Commands were taking like 4-5 mins to register. Bolo was saying he was going to leave some good eq at cs. And remembering where cs was I went there and got it (I knew boots of dexterity or boots of speed maybe? Where there, also a necro staff and some other good shit) I went to the lux armoury and sold half of it, then I tried to sell some on sales after lag had passed. I got a lot of good offers, then Bolo figured it out and Isimazku summoned me to his castle and casted disintergrate at me and got it all back. I bitched for a while and Quadra and Isimazku got me like 500k xp and Bolo gave me 50k gold. To a level 5 newbie back in mid 20/20 system that was great. So things slowed down for me for a while and I met Griffers friend um...that ranger guy I forget his name....Malikis castle is next to whee his used to be. (Thinking) Started with an S....Anyway if your a Highbee you know who I am talking about. (HE wized and got dested I remember) HE got me a room in his castle and I would repear eq and prot his eq. Finally I reinced to ranger, not sure how powerful I was but was worth 10M (more than I am now) Well I loved the idea of reincing and did it a little too much (was never worth more than 10M since then at 20/20 system) Habib and Dollarbill came around and I became friends with them, also Shades came around. Habib $bill and I fucked around a bit, then I became a Shaman and dicked around as one too. Was all pretty fun. I became friends with Xymbarg too. I had just sent away cash for tps. No one liked Maliki, not even Habib or $bill anymore. Some time aroudn then Habib and some other dude got dested (I won't say why, you shoudl know if your more than a piece of shit newbie :) Anyway Del came along soon after and was sorta his friend, $bill left and Limit came around too. Del, Limit and Shades were good friends I remember. I decided to make a new character, Aphro. Xymbarg helped me get 6M of xp in the first day I was Aphro (Necromancers ruled back then) That was about all he got me for a while, he always had some excuse not to help me (its try Xymbarg if your reading this :) I was a necro then and could control 1 of his undeads at a time and could solo alright. Got sick of it and reinced to Arakornis monks. It was pretty cool for 2 weeks and then THE conversion came around. Played a little of Mia mud for the 4 months Bat was down. When we got back everything kinda sucked. Xymbarg was not around and wasn't for a few more weeks. I forget what I was back then (think just a plain Fighter) Lockmare (another friend of mine) gave me some cash for a castle and I got some shit from some other people. And since then I was a Nun for a while, Cleric for a bit and of course a thief >:) Got real pissed at all the downgrades and have notplayed that much in a while. PLayed a lot as a ranger and a Nun I remember, Perin and I moved into Seasides castle and when Perin was suposed to leave for Japan I got all his figs. Well I moved into my own castle. Being thief was fun, if you guys remember me fucking you guys over a few times it just sucks for you :) Well not much but a SHITload of downgrades and changed since then. I quit BatMUD seriously a while ago and play ZombieMUD now. It is not as good as old bat in that it doesn't have the old areas I liked so much. But I get to play NEcromancer so It is alright. (THIS IS NOT THE WHOLE STORY) If I feel like writing more I might. I did leave out me being an IK and some cool stories with me Del and Limit. But maybe another time.
