    January 9th!!!

    You're all a part of something big!! =) OSD is 6 years old!!!

    Congratulations dragons... Over the years I have made so many "virtual brothers and sisters" within this community. I am hesitant to list em because I'll likely offend someone by leaving them out...I mean, there's hundreds of you guys! For fun I'll try and if I leave ya out... give me hell and I'll likely have a few things fun to share about you too! haha

    No specific order... kinda random.

    Yndrofian (DDO) for being such a hard ass...and an incredibly loyal friend and dragon. Without you, this place wouldn't be standing.

    Donnie (DDO, SWTOR) for being so committed this last year plus for keeping the technical side of the site alive when I couldnt. Thanks for caring man!

    Vra, the nicest Dane I know....lol (DDO) You too Fireforge!

    Syrbryce (DDO, AOC, SWTOR), an incredible human being... easy going... Man, I always enjoy being in your groups. Thanks for supporting us man!

    Zugg (AOC), loyalty!! That word sums it up... Zugg, thanks for believing in us man!! Thanks for supporting the vision.

    Snyval, (DDO, AOC, SWTOR) a very wise man that has offered me some incredible personal advise over the years. A good friend and an incredible human being. I'm so very proud to be associated with you man.

    Griff (AoC, SWTOR), An instrumental component of our early success in recent ventures. Firm, respected...and damn funny! haha Griff, thanks for having our back... I certainly have yours! *salutes*

    Zsolaith (AOC)... Zso... Get your tail in SWTOR and play at your leisure! hehe Miss you brother, you have done so much for us... it will forever be remembered.

    Daemos (AOC)... Rock solid representation of who we are and what we're about... *salutes*

    Minori (AOC) we miss you!!!! Not only ferocious in PvP hehe... a loyal dragon. Thanks!

    Subi (AoC) we mess you too damnit!!! Get in SWTOR... A fun person to run with... an incredible RAID commander and solid representation of who we are.

    Ric0 (DDO) the best Southern Californian accent I've ever heard!

    Bee (DDO) the most sarcastic and absolutely HILARIOUS dragon that has lived within our lair... I miss you Bee!

    Just to chime in here, the list of names i would need to make will be way to long, but to say that i found an gaming "family" would not be far off the truth, joining OSD and meeting everyone over the last couple of years was amazing.

    We as a community, no matter which game we all play, have something special here, and long may it continue!

    Happy B-day all :)

    and whens the guild meetup!!!!!!!

    A few words from me:

    War - yes, he definitely liked to stir the pot too often than not, but deep down inside he has a good heart! I do miss him stirring the pot, though. Haha.

    Setaza - the only Silver Dragon I actually 'met' in real life! :)

    Donnie - I'm not sure what we would have done around here for the last few years if Donnie hadn't jumped in to help things out on the back end! This guy is top-notch material and an amazing person! Definitely a true Silver Dragon all the way!

    Tale - i miss you talking in vent. We all had some good times!

    Majar - i remember being your 'pulling' backup in the old Vistrix days of AoC. Those were fun days for me.

    Sprig - Where the hell are you, Sprig? I miss your commentary and jokes in the forums and in vent. I still have fond memories of your voiced 'tours' of the Border Kingdoms while we were riding our steeds into siege battle!

    Snyval - one of the most trust-worthy people i've ever known, Snyval, I'd jump into vent just to hear him say

    SyrBryce - i have such a level of respect for you, man.

    Silverar - I bow to the great and mighty representative of our OSD culture!

    Thraxes - I miss bothering you to let me record your voice! HAha! You must have hated me! :p

    Daemos - one with the sneaky sneaky! :D

    F'lar Mnementh - a true Silver Dragon with the spirit of our OSD culture!

    Seldonia - i joined around the same time as you, Sel, and only have one thing to say. Arrow to the chest. :p

    Coyotl - you are one of the most thoughtful and amazing people i've known, and i miss chatting with you in vent! :(

    Duin - one of the best AoC siege leaders i have ever known!

    Eurenthan - Your appearing in front of me *POOF* so many times in AoC still haunts me with nightmares to this day!

    Lunai - one of the best AoC PvP players EVA!

    Mandy - i miss our intellectual conversations!

    Subi - one fo the best AoC siege leaders i have ever known!

    Willyanderz - why the hell did you have to rip off my head, take a screenshop, and use it for a week as your forum avatar... is beyond me. :)

    Zugg - i still remember us releasing fireworks in rememberance of a lost one, Zugg. Certain things are kept forever.

    Cleaner - i miss this guy!

    Silverboots - what can i say about boots? Fond memories of some of the best RP situations i'll ever see!

    Jarmay - Captain Jarmay! :D

    OlBlue - my RP helper! :)

    Draxorian - my RP helper! :)

    Twitchy (Mayor!) - what a wonderful person that went out of her way day-in and day-out, week after week, in order to get our AoC home Drakke'Hus to completion. Great respect!

    Monori - I miss watching Monori kick ass in game, and smack talking in vent! :(

    Aggrippina - I would love to RP up some great adventures with you!

    Griffiud - Great respect to our SWTOR founder! Outstanding!

    Collanaro - i miss you, girl!


    SOOK DUKAR, Architect, Creator - the master creator of all of this... the 'ARCHITECT' of this virtual matrix. I know you are not always around but you are never too far away. Everything here is because of you. *bows with the highest level of respect*

    yndro's 2cp.

    this is in ADDITION to the previous lists
    (and some doubled cause i felt like it)

    firstly firstly

    sook . . . ? ? . . . ? :D
    im glad we met and hung out, good times. definitely wont forget them. thanks for taking the initiative to create what you wanted. and for finding like-minded people.
    its really still going, brother, it really is! so much work and time and effort. and we STILL have people logging in and playing and enjoying themselves. so many things in our life are ephemeral. so many things we work so hard at only to watch it fade away. not because of any lack of desire or effort; its just sometimes things dont last. THIS is NOT one of them. congratulations, brother! you've created a keeper!! and im proud to be a part of something that has given so much good to so many good people.

    firstly, my ddo officers. you made my years in ddo the one of the best times ever. period. and i absolutely could not have kept myself (or the guild) up and going w/o you!

    syrbryce - i think im the only one that calls you syr, but tats ok, cause im right! in retrospect, i STILL cant think of a better person to hand the reigns of ddo to. you are solid.

    xavros - xav! im glad you're back w/me in rift! (speaking of, where ya been lately?) thanks for being part of the underwater team in our 5-man titan raid runs! :D

    thraxes - the only guy i know who can play ddo with a broken hand... twice!! miss ya, bud!

    vra - its really fun to have met some of my guildies. its even MORE fun to have met a Dane. in his own country, even! :D thanks for putting so much time into ddo. and for having better grammar than most Americans i know :D if im in Europe again, count on me showing up to help you drink a case or two!! :D

    blix - good times drinking and shooting pool, glad you stopped by! the only guildie i know thats actually BIGGER than me!! imma have to txt you cause i know you're otherwise occupied!

    elb- why on earth we never got together is beyond me. hope you find your way back here soon!

    firstly secondly

    velimos - you are evil. and you should be here. not wherever you are. cause i know.

    vorn - vorn vorn vorn... you are one of the best people ive met. im proud to have called you my ally and subsequent guildie. thanks for being the other half of the 5-man titan underwater team :D

    wintermute - my favorite canadian. a solid player and all around fun guy to talk with.

    remo - always willing to help out the guild in whatever way he can! especially if it involves expletives and innuendo! :D

    firstly lastly firstly

    my rifters

    a real big THANK you to all my regulars who have helped each other run dungeons and get geared up so we can have our weekend raids :D

    xanzo and anzzee - i had initially thought to separate you two... maybe i should have. of course sometimes i feel like i need to esp when ric0 gets yall riled up! :D

    sampia - selfless almost to a fault! you're awesome! the epitome of osd.

    rhumor - or krueg, whichever i feel like at the time :D. thanks for all the raid leading and coaching and helping in gearing. you're indispensable.

    ric0 - i talk to you so much i dont really have anything more to say. ;) thanks for everything!

    raela - xetani, thank for being there when you can being so willing to bend to the groups needs!

Tough when life gets in the way, but I'm thankful for those of you who I'm able to keep in touch with on FB and elsewhere :)

    Happy belated B-Day OSD!!

    Man, has it really been six years, and three of them I haven't been able to play with you guys. :( I miss my OSD family. Maybe in 2013 I will be back in the real world and be able to play.:)
