<DIV>Finally I can sleep, many many long nights of tough grinding has come to an end.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>World Wide 1st Brigand to level 50!!!</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>What to do now? I think I might go in search of this place I heard of along my journy. Does anyone know if this "outside" place I think they called it, has an access quest involved? I was told I might view the zone through some sort of window whatever that is. I hope I can find one on the broker because if it involves harvesting '?' those quest are the sux. I think I used to have one of those actually but it is probably blocked by the large tower of Bawls caffine drink bottles in my room.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Anyway goodnight and good leveling fellow brigands, I have a feeling my journey is just beginning.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>-Gyan</DIV>

[Gy]

<DIV>take your hostile trolling somewhere else. I work hard on my character and put alot of time and effort into it so get off my back. Hell yeah I'll brag all I want, I worked toward a goal and achieved it and I don't see the problem in it. I didn't say I was better then anyone or call anyone a bad player just because I was 1st. SO WHAT if the game is more important to me then it is you? No big deal just leave my threads along with your trolling and let me have my 15 minutes.</DIV>

<DIV>30 days play time for 15 minutes..... was it worth while?  Oo</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Good work though man, I dont have that kind of dedication for any game - but for someone that does, it is quite an accomplishment.   Now go have a beer or something :p</DIV><p>Message Edited by Eeko on <span class=date_text>12-22-2004</span> <span class=time_text>03:29 AM</span>

[t0mm]

<DIV>im sure none of you would be [expletive ninja'd by Faarbot]ing at someone who came on here and said he was the first to complete a special quest.  gyan achieved what all the other brigands wanted to do, first.  it's just as much of an achievement as seeing new content or any of that other stuff.  he has the time on his hands to do it, so he did.  stop being jealous pricks.  im not trying to brown nose gyan or anything of the sort, but give the guy a break he worked hard for what he did.  </DIV>

<P>Congratulations on reaching the 50th level! ... Not sure on all the hostility here, he made an achievement and is happy and wants to share.

[Troja]

Everyone's play style is different, if that's his goal than i say that's great...I think some are just jealous...heh what other reason would they be ragging on you for?Anyways i say it's an acomplishment, Good job.

[Daran]

Nah, the ragging is to keep the ego in check, just kidding around of course.Congrats for doing what you wanted to do and achieving a goal, not everyones goal but your goal nonetheless.Although now that you've put yourself out there I wonder what content is available for a level 50 to do, Do you spend your time now questing, grinding, sitting on a park bench complaining to the level 25s how you had to go uphill both ways in the snow just to get to the commonlands everyday and using the ever descriptive term of "whipper-snapper" too much?~Daran

[Kr]

<DIV>Congrats. If I had the time, I would have done the same thing. But I don't, so I'm piddling around, taking my time.</DIV>

[Mideo]

<DIV>Uh actually Gayan this is what the guy said.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>"proud to have the first 50 brig on Unrest, my home server."</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>To which I replied: "<FONT face="Comic Sans MS">I don't care nearly enough to be jealous, but whoever said he was proud to have the first 50 brigand on his server is a [expletive ninja'd by Faarbot] haha"</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face="Comic Sans MS"></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face="Comic Sans MS">So in reality I was 100% correct.  He wasn't talking about all servers, he was talking his yours in particular.  Not to mention the fact that I was insulting him, not you haha</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face="Comic Sans MS"></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face="Comic Sans MS">Geez Gayan, you'd think all this EQ2 would have taught you at least a small measure of reading comprehension.</FONT></DIV>

[t0mm]

<DIV>im proud to have the first 50 brig on my server, because i am a brigand.  its kind of a sign of good luck in my opinion.  im not saying it to try to suck up to gyan or anything, which is what the average dip[expletive ninja'd by Faarbot] flamer whos just looking to start an arguement in a place where he can be anonymous and not have to deal with any real-life consequences, would automatically conclude.  eat [ex<U>S</U>pletive ni<U>H</U>jaa'd b<U>I</U>y fa<U>T</U>arbot].</DIV><p>Message Edited by t0mmeh on <span class=date_text>12-27-2004</span> <span class=time_text>04:30 PM</span>

<DIV>ummm riiiigggghhhtt. MideonV missed a nap time or something.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>No wait he is always like this look at the rest of his post.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>the guy has 6 post 1 being a noobie ruse question because apperently he does not know how to use a search feature on the forums where he can find 100 answers to that question.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>The other 5 are either a bit hostile or out right flames. Great attitude you have. ...and people here said I was the one with no life.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>About the gayan thing, what are you in elementry school?  Call me whatever you want if it will boost your low self esteem, I mean I wouldn't want the children to have to go through life with a low self esteem.</DIV>

[Mideo]

<DIV>Stupidity makes me hostile, my apologies.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>By the way Gayan, your plaque for being the first brigand to 50 is in the mail.  UPS tracking code: n5n6o222jh998f</DIV>

[Dtrick]

<DIV>If he wants to poopsock himself all the way to 50 then let him do it.  No point coming into his thread to bash him.  Let him wave his e-[expletive ninja'd by Faarbot] in his own thread.  Grats to you man, I hope you can find stuff to do while waiting for others to get there.  </DIV>

[Mideo]

<DIV>Poor guy, I ruined his victory thread on him and I wasn't even after him to begin with.</DIV>

[deadxeyesxsta]

Congrars Gyan. And thank you for helping me with my first post. And also don't let the haters get to you. There will always be those punk-kids with mommys credit card. Once again Congrats and keep on the good work both in-game and on these boards.

[sociobiologi]

<DIV>Congratulations Gyan§</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Lots of hard work to get to 50 I bet. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>You people who are dissing Gyan for blowing through game content, having no life etc: Why do you care? Are you worried for him? Do you think he struggles with life-consuming obsessions and that he should get corrective feedback so he may save himself from gaming-death? I mean if one of you secretly is Gyan's wife harrassing him for not giving you the attention you need, I applaud you! Otherwise I do not. Are you worried Gyan is making a bad example for the youth to follow by gaming not stop? Will he ruin your gaming environment by infecting everyone with powerlevellers-mania?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I think your answare to most of these questions must be: NO</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Is it possible that you get off by killing other peoples enjoyment for their subjectively valued accomplishements? Did you use to bully the red headed, freckled, skinny kids in grade school. Perhaps you were one of the useful idiots hiding behind the real bully, like you are hiding safely behind your monitor now? </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Back to Gyan, I dont know you, I dont care how you use your time, I dont care if you are level 50, it doesnt bother me that you post your accomplishment on this board (where else?).... </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>What I care about is people in my gaming community treating eachother with respect and decency.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>PS: Not writing in my native language (Norway).</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Lv 19 halfling rogue (betrayer): Guk</DIV>

<DIV>Letting everyone know that you've reached level 50 doesn't bother me too much...  :smileytongue:</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>...but I'm telling you right now that if you come back to these boards and start complaining about how the game has no content, you'll get plenty of "feedback", and most of it will tell you that there *is* plenty of content, only you blew right past 75+% of it.  :smileywink:</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Time for you to play an Assassin now!  :smileyvery-happy:</DIV>

[Loiceni]

Any EQ player that makes fun of another player for not having a life is seriously clueless...we should all be ashamed for playing this game lol!Seriously congrats, that is a cool accomplishment.Don't hate because someone has more free time than you. Maybe he's in high school and there isn't anything better to do (or better 1st year college heh)Loice

[Alpheratz]

<DIV>Lol Gyan this is just horrible, i am happy for your happyness =) but for me this game is not a race to 50, is a nice world with a lot of quest, i cant understand you.</DIV>

[reakshav]

<DIV>Congrats dude, great accomplisment!  If Gyan is happy with his gaming experience thats all that counts, who cares if he missed some content in the game, people do things differently.  Whatever floats your boat is what I say. </DIV>

[Mad0]

<DIV>holly crap guys, stop doing this.  whats the difference to you how he spends his real life.  You are just like him sitting in this forum, playing same game, and you are finding nerve to judge him?  This is pretty sad sight to see to tell the truth.  Just because he is happy and wanted to share his happy moment with everyone you started to flame him and look for the things you can pick on?  Way to go.  Such a bunch of [Removed for Content].</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Gyan, my congratulations to you.</DIV> <DIV><SPAN></SPAN> </DIV> <DIV><SPAN></SPAN> </DIV>

<DIV>Just can't resist lol......</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I'm sure that someone who could blow to lvl 50 that fast is seasoned enough in these games to not be at risk of "finding them boring because he missed a lot of content"</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>The simple truth of it?  You guys probably had a crappy night trying to grind from lvl 23 to lvl 24, and then Gyan gets on here saying he hit 50.  So you take this a shot to the junk, and crap all over his accomplishment.  You then have the nerve to tell HIM to get a life.  Lol!  I think maybe that advice should return to sender.  </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>bleh... I got no use for petty flamers.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Gratz Gyan!  but if you push an alt to 50 before I get my main there, I'm hunting you down.........</DIV>

[gone_away_tod]

<DIV>um not to sound 'ignant' or anything but isnt level 50 just the level cap at this time being, and they are expanding it to 100 and than liek to 150.. or is that just some rumor... if it is true... than he hasnt beat the game yet has he?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>sorry for the off topicness...</DIV>

<DIV>Three things:</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>1 > Grats on 50!</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>2 > Must be a pretty empty victory to have to brag about it here to feel good about it.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>3 > Considered trying another class, slowly? To actually 'enjoy' the game. Me, I enjoy walking through Archer's Wood at night with my surround sound on, rather than trucking through at Pathfinding speed on my way to another pointless group slash fest.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Regardless of anything the higher level players say, there is a certain charm to doing things slowly, to enjoying them. Ask anyone who plays pen and paper RPG's, the fun games aren't about killing everything in the big book of monsters, or getting to the highest level possible the fastest... its about enjoying time with your friends, enjoying the game itself and the many evenings playing it. I'm sorry, but you 'can't' enjoy it as much it you plough through the content, all of it, in 2 months.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Edit : Sorry if it sounds spiteful or jealous, but grinding a bunch of people's favorite game into the dirt  because you have a lot of free time just makes you sound like an egomaniac to all of the people that actually 'play' the game to its fullest and 'enjoy' the content that's out there.
