Ares Posted September 14, 2015 Report Posted September 14, 2015 (edited) Theme: What You Did Last Holiday Start date: September 14, 2015 (00:00 server time) End date: September 29, 2015 (00:00 server time) Since school has just started for a lot of students in fRO, what did you do last holiday? Did you get an awesome MVP or castle drop? Was it your first time to win an event or contest? Did you travel around the world? Or did you simply get drunk with your friends? Show us! I was so busy for the past 4 months now because of the demand from my business plus the regular day job. Last April, I got this job offer from a well known French company called L'Oréal Paris and accepted their offer. I was a Visual Merchandiser (I design stuff for their stores, booths, etc) and stayed there for four months only just to get some new set of skills and widen my network. I'm more of a Web/Systems Developer (my business) than a visual and spatial designer but since the pay is good, I took the opportunity. That's why most of the time, I'm offline in game. I kept my promise to still work back-end on the tickets, and host the bi-weekly events and some small events for you guys. But I decided to L'Oreal because I realized that my time for my business is suffering (a bit) because L'Oreal is making me stay for up until 12-5am! So there, I am back to Forsaken RO! Even I was too busy with my work, I still got a call from GM Genesis and Veracity that they will promote me from Event Gamemaster to Operations Manager! I promise that I will do my best in-game and on forums! I couldn't wait for the next patch to be released! But for now, this is the best thing that ever happened! Edited September 14, 2015 by Ares 1
mutilixus Posted September 15, 2015 Report Posted September 15, 2015 (edited) WHAT I DID LAST HOLIDAY~ The Swan of Should and The Swan of Must :th_wah: Should---> <--- Must I TRIED TO KILL MYSELF LAST HOLIDAY. #SADLYF lol jk. Last holiday, I'm kinda like in the middle of killing myself and trying to make a living, I drowned myself (into tears #sadlyf jk) with loads of work which aren't paid yet... fk... Btw, I am a Freelance Artist and I work from home... Last holiday was a big dilemma for me, I was in my "Re-thinking of my life" stage whether I'll continue to do what I SHOULD (having time for myself and doing personal artworks, playing games, while still earning not much money) or doing what I MUST (having a day-job w/c would probably eat all my time but will help me pay my dues). But then I decided to ditch thinking and start doing it simultaneously. I don't know what will happen but I wish I learn how to swim pass through this stage... :th_e31: Edited September 15, 2015 by mutilixus 1

casidsid52 Posted September 17, 2015 Report Posted September 17, 2015 (edited) WHAT I DID LAST HOLIDAY~ IGN: Grahand•Demonsbane Summer Days Hi! My summer or holiday may not be as exciting as the other people but for me it was the best summer of my life! I met people, not just any kind of people kind and fun people! (Shoutout to Dan, Shin, Calci, MisS SnowW) As Summer or the holidays started I was so overwhelmed that I didn't know what to do. Then I realized that I have nothing to do at home. Then one Wednesday my friend pm'ed me. It contained a link and stuff telling me to play and get addicted to this game/server. My friend Shinsen(Shoutout to Shinsen) introduced and helped me to get started in the game. Few weeks have passed I farmed and got my first full basic equips. Including the Vote Forsaken King Set, L.Weapon, L. Zodiac, and a pair of L. Gauntlets. :th_swt3: At this time i didn't know what cards do so I just picked them up and sold them. :th_swt3: Soon enough I tried different types of characters. Then I tried the Paladin. I played on my paladin for weeks. Then I somehow joined (Thanks Calci!) a Guild called Divide et Impera. This guild introduced me to WoE. How it works, what are the drops, and what to do. A month passed i got/farmed my L. LHZ. It was, what I thought, was the coolest thing because of the animations. Then Shinsen told me that there were things called Donation Items. When I looked it up my jaw dropped because of how cool the items looked. But my jaw dropped even more because of the prices. (not saying there's a problem) But soon enough 1 type of character took my attention. The Whitesmith. It took my attention because of what this class can do. It can support with buffs and repair stuff + selling to npc's gets you more zennies. It can also kill with a hammer and a freaking CART!!! That made me stay and play Whitesmith alot! Talking about events! I consider events as break time for farming. And miraculously I won multiple events like: Dice event, N vs Z, Guess that Monster, Hide and Seek, and password! :th_ok: All in all for me I had the best summer in my entire life! :th_ok: Playing Forsaken Ragnarok! (I sometimes go outside) -Don't judge me- Edited September 17, 2015 by casidsid52 4

pokutomokuto Posted September 19, 2015 Report Posted September 19, 2015 :th_ho: ~What we did last holiday~ :th_ho: Me and my wife were poking around the net to look for a game that we both could enjoy. hours later of searching through different MMOs :th_e14: we found FRO so we gave it a try and we enjoyed it, throughout the summer we were hell-bent on getting stronger. we got hooked on FRO so bad we even talk about it during work, :th_e27: with what little time we have left after getting off from work we spend it grinding away in FRO to increase our tokens in Hopes of getting our first Valk weapon We are saving up for it and so far this is what we've got we're also having fun at the same time this is reallygood quality time for us since we're upcoming parents we continue to grow even closer by bonding over FRO. i know this may be cheesy but i'm really glad that we found this game cuz it helped us a lot to get even more connected we receive a lot of stress at work :th_e1: and this is our way of relaxing, especially the events. The events are really funwe really like pori pori revenge our all-time favorite is hide and seek we both get immersed to much into finding the GM we even give off locations where we look so we didnt have to look there again :th_ok:its even more fun when we win :th_ok: •Playing this FRO is awesome• :th_thx: :th_thx: :th_thx: 3

danahhyeah Posted September 20, 2015 Report Posted September 20, 2015 (edited) How's my Summer? Oh well it was a Gloomy one! Me and my girl ended our 6 year relationship and I was absolutely lost, lost to the point that I can't get hold of myself any more, and I would say that was the worst kind of Depression that I have ever experienced. I tried different kinds of stuffs as a diversion on what was happening: Drowning myself with alcohol, smoke weed( was my first time :th_sry: ) , and etc.(I'm pretty sure all of them were unpleasant :th_e33: ). But yeah, I lose grip on reality to the point that I didn't recognize myself any more, so my friend suggested me to watch this movie "500 days of Summer" and it was absolutely life-changing! After watching the movie, I viewed heartbreaks in a whole different way! I felt free, but yeah I know that was just like a temporary feeling, so I kept on looking for a diversion and I thought about playing MMO! I was wandering the maze of my own thoughts and I decided to play Ragnarok! Why Ragnarok? well it's a very nostalgic game for me since it was my first MMO that I played! I just had this feeling of regaining myself back from what had happened, even the "ME" before I had my first girlfriend :th_ok: . I was searching for a server to play with for like an hour and bumped into this site called xtremetop100.com. I chose ForsakenRO because it was featured at the very top of the page, and I knew it was featured for a reason so I gave it a shot! Well, I've been playing the game actively for 16hrs a day, my only break time is when I'm asleep but sometimes I don't :th_e4: :th_heh: . In forsakenRO, I found awesome people! they're really close to me right now (Shoutout to The Finest Guild! :th_ew: :th_gawi: ). While I have been enjoying the game, I just realized that Life doesn't stop for anyone, people come and people go and all you gotta do is to Stand up for yourself! No one can help you but YOU! ( well this is technically true lol :th_no1: :th_e3: ). PM me ingame! I like meeting new folks although I take the word pvp seriously lol. I bet others hate me for that! I just randomly kill people out on a whim! IGN: Dannibal :th_gg: Edited September 20, 2015 by danahhyeah 2
