AzUK was a beast.
There is another guy though, wayyy lower level that also has a gold medal.
I forget his name though, Seath maybe?

Edit: Yeah just checked, his name is 'Seath'...

I was recently reading some REALLY old facebook messages between myself and Pardoux, it was so funny. We were moaning about stamina and not wanting to pay 65000 gold for a sword! (or maybe it was a shield, I forget)

Was really funny to read though. I miss the days when FS was a mystery, now there are a zillion guides for setups and even the items and maps are put up for everyone to 'proof read' and plan before they do anything.. :(

Ah the Good old days, Level 200 was a major accomplishment then, TT and Retsnom were two of my favorite villians I battled (I miss those 2 now). Along with a slew of others, I mean we had a Deemer and a Phool and a bunch of self proclaimed SE hunters which raced to kill the most, Game has changed so much via both player pool and Gear/maps/levels.

I miss so many players that are no longer around (heck I even retired for over a year myself and just came back).

The main problem with this game is banning great personalities. New/old players stay/return because of personalities.

Say what ? - great personalities get banned ? - I find that hard to believe... Cheats and frauds and repeat offenders get banned - doubt the personality is a factor ....

Yes they may get banned ,but when you remove players from games that others enjoy playing with you will always lose more than 1 player....some people have actually made real friends playing this game and are loyal to them...
As an example a friend was banned from the game for almost 3 years since he was allowed to return 3 other players who had also quit have returned to the game...

Personality, not morality, is the key to attracting more players. Great personalities influence and inspire other people, and create great things. Many banned players created great guilds and the ways people are still playing this game. The game is boring enough with all the waiting, so banning motivators and persons, who can bring excitement to a group of individuals in order to accomplish a common goal, isn't smart.

As did many other players who werent banned and thus showed game integrity. Putting cheats on a pedestal because they "created a great guild" (your example, not mine) and thus shouldn't have been banned is simply ludicrous, unless you want a game where cheating is encouraged and dishonesty the norm ?

The game is boring enough with all the waiting, so banning motivators and persons, who can bring excitement to a group of individuals in order to accomplish a common goal, isn't smart.


Several "great personalities" that have been banned spring to mind - I can't say that I miss any of them (the ones I can recall) - more, I miss the ones that were driven away by the lack of game integrity those that who were banned displayed ...

It's the game's design fault. The greater the incentives, the greater the motivation for cheating. Banning funny people isn't the answer here, change the game design, that's all I am saying. When sigi sent his multis to kill someone on the BB that wasn't that damaging for the game as his absense. The Dude's bio would win any contest based upon the number of views.
