BlackEye's Quitting Thread

Wow, I wish you the best man!

I'm @Dr Satan btw but I just seen your post.

We had some good times and good conversations over the last couple of years.

I feel I knew a kinder side than some claimed to know, maybe most of us just never seen the "bad" side but there was many times I seen people change their minds about your character when they realized you were only a thief a small part of the times and knew how to adventure and have other fun with the best of em.

Many times you came into our channel, took new players out in the world, show em how to play a provo dexxer, show em how to farm spined quickly and make starting cash, joined in an event etc.

You actually did a lot of good around here and I appreciate your time for it, and I hope you enjoyed doing so.

I personally had good times with ya when we teamed up, and we always had some great trade deals and weren't afraid to bid high to one another. I will miss the pm private trades when I had something to unload, and though I paid well for it Shredder will still be Shredder and will be in my main pack for a long time I imagine.

I do wish ya the best, and it's been a pleasure.

Hey @Ecstatic this sentence has been kinda floating down at the bottom of your OP for a while, as you add things. I just thought I'd point it out, since it doesn't seem to make sense all by itself. I assume it was supposed to go up a bit at #15 where you gave away gargoyle shovels.

There I was... One of the biggest IDOCs I have ever seen. I am drooling all over my keyboard. Blessed runebooks, Ethy mounts, server birth rares, elite trammel pixels EVERYWHERE. Oh this fort was going to be good...

I sat there waiting for it to fall, heart racing, mouth wide open, eyes as wide as saucers.

I am listening intently to all the chatter in my voice channel, trying to take in everything at once... Surely this FORTRESS IDOC will fall soon.

And then it happens..."DROP!!" is called out and, pixels are everywhere! There is a mad scramble to pick up anything you can!! Nerds running around left and right trying to have some purpose in this overwhelming amount of value of the floor.

"Vas Rel Por" is seen shouted as people gate out valuables. "To the loot house!" many of us go to stash away our pixels in safety.

A large force of enemy combatants show themselves and we are called to arms! BATTLE must be had to defend what we claim to be ours!

I run into the loot house to switch characters QUICKLY, listening to the deafening screams of my companions needing help.

I get a PvP toon out into the field and we fight as hard as we can trying to gain any advantage possible.

But at our loot house, tells a different story... @Ecstatic @BlackEye has slipped in undetected.

In my haste to get out into the fray and defend my fellow nerds I have left the door open, be it for 4.69 seconds.

In this time Blackeye has managed to sneak in, (I DONT FUCKING KNOW HOW HE WAS SO GOD DAMN FAST) and has first dibs at all the prime loot we just unloaded onto the patio.

We come back to the loot house some time later after finishing a lengthy battle. Spirits have calmed, everyone is happy for look at all the loot we have on the patio!! Wait... why is it moving? WHY IS THE LOOT MOVING?! WHO IS INSIDE?! Silence is heard in voice comms. "Gulp, ruh roh."

Hastily we all trip over each other trying to get inside. The door is locked and unlocked 6 times in haste. We stumble over each other going in the door way like the 3 stooges. DETECT HIDDEN is screamed and ringing in my ears at this point.

Blackeye!!!!! NOOOO! Blackeye is inside!!! Quite a surprise indeed. The most notorious thief on the server has had first dibs at all our loot for 15 minutes at this point.

We eventually got him out but not before he recalled out with whatever he wanted. Millions for sure.

This is the story of how Blackeye got me... real fucking good.

Good luck friend. Hope you find joy outside of UO

You stole a christmas scroll from me once when I was hunting elves, you bastard!

Good luck with everything you do moving forward. You will be missed, and I'm glad you're getting your life in order. It was a pleasure @Ecstatic.

You are forever remembered in video format on The Harvest Part 1!

Hello blackeye

I am sorry to see you quit.

i will enjoy to meet you in game really and share adventures.

But yes you have to found a balance in your real life and it is important as my opinion : i know quitting UO is challenging.

All i can say is good luck

Sorry to see you go Blackeye. Thank you for teaching me some thieving moves. it was also great stealing with you.

I guess my most memorable time with you was looting Blaise' s keep.

I also had fun going head to head against you during Pockets halloween thieving competition. Of course you came in first.

Good luck in the future.

Jerome Jackson

P.s.

I'll be hounding @ReZon for that 2nd anny mask.

Can I put money on Snap meeting you at the spot to pick up the rune?

I wouldn't take that bet. I'd double down actually...hehehe

Great story!

When I say it's not possible, then it's not possible. Serverline borderline style impossible.

I'm jelly

Awww man it's gonna be sad to see you go :-( Thank you for the consideration!!

i wich you the best!
have fun with your FAMILY!!!!
i will remember you!!!!!

BlackEye's a real swell fella. He and I have chatted quite a bit and had some fun RPing it up in game more than a few times. In particular that spontaneous quest with him playing the tricksy evil thief with Alice and I and a few others. Chasing him around trying to firebolt him to death had me rolling for hours. Suffice to say, we're on good terms.

Poor guy, I almost feel bad but not really. He and I just had a chat and he asked me if I needed anything. I respectfully declined a few times and the convo concluded. Sorry BE but I just thought it'd be hilarious if on your way out you experienced 'reverse thievery'.

MUWA-HAHA I AM EVIL!

Peace out brotha. You're one of a kind and most certainly irreplaceable.
G'luck out there and don't forget to bring a towel.

Sincerely,
Percival Netherwallop



P.S. that day at the white marble.... I actually was quitting. After our conversation it was you that changed my mind and inspired "The Droppening".

You will get something, wylwrk, and if it's the last thing I ever do!

@Kirby, @Pirul, @Awen and all the others - I need your help fellas, tell me what you are doing all day and prefer ingame. I still need charming people to throw trammel stuff at.

I am actually on my way out the door to leave for work, and I won't get home until between 11pm and midnight Central US time (about 6 hours from now). Anything you have for me, you can give to @Dr Satan and he will get it to me.

As for anything I prefer, I don't really care, bro. I'm sorry to see you go and anything you wanted to throw my way would be appreciated. I've recently gotten into masks, I have a lot of clothes that need to be blessed if you have CBDs, or if you have anything that you think would enhance the rune library I'm building, it would be put to good use. Beyond that, anything fishing related or anything that would be good for deco. I'm just happy to be considered!

BTW This thread is a great way to go out!

Holy lord of hockey masks. Good decision for the right reasons. Good luck man
