So I meant to write this when I got to 5 years...but I guess I forgot so now it's 6. Usually these can get pretty boring so I'll try and keep it short hehe.

I joined eGO in the end of August 2008 as an annoying high-pitched 12 year old. I used to put on an embarrassingly low voice to make myself sound older when wardening in CS Jail - that's how squeeky I was, like micky mouse in helium. My division was TF2 though and I spent a LOT of my time after school in our Black Mesa server, which I recommend you try out in the TF2 events they put on occasionally. I actually made some friends and fell in love with the community, even buying the eGO hoodie, which is the softest hoodie you will have ever felt. I had many impressive conversations (although I was kicked nearly every day from vent), including a deep PM with our Great Leader himself.

I was a passionate safety dancer, and a foolish bacon-hater, but my ultimate goal was to get admin, which I obviously couldn't achieve given my generally annoying presence - think Nicoll x10 :P. I was even banned from eGO by Arti once! (he thought I was a baddie by mistake)

But the 'Spirit Of eGO' was actually enough to stop my from crying about it, for a few years at least.

I left TF2 and went to Strat during some DARK TIMES. Some nasty crap went on there haha, but story for another day. HOWEVER ONE DAY, I found REALISM, the best event in eGO? 'IT CAN'T BE?!!' But it was, and I then spent my first 300hrs in DoD:s in the summer of 2012. I won $20 from spartacus legolas too, which he still hasn't paid me from the summer bounty.

So now after 6 years, having THE best realism campaign ever in THE best division ever and with over 3000 hours on edgegamers servers, I look forward to another 6. Thanks for being awesome guys.

I think the best part about this post, is that you have PMs still from 2009.

Also, I had no clue that you've been in eGO 12 days longer than I have! Im glad you found realism, you've my token English friend, and you make me laugh, and we generally hate the same people which is nice.

So thanks for being you.
 
Nice write-up Matz and congrats on six glorious years in eGO!
