Introduction / a stranger in a strange land
« on: November 01, 2023, 03:03:09 am »
Hello there, I am a long-time player. Joined in Aug. 2012. I have really great memories from this realm and always enjoyed my time in the many worlds. I decided to hop back in FH after it crossing the mind here and there. I have a special place in my heart for games like this. About 3 months ago I installed and took a stroll around Active Worlds. With only about 30 users on at any given time. A friend was explaining how "dead MMOs" felt eerie. I never thought that- if anything it's a little less overwhelming. And regardless of player count I still like to walk around, hang out and explore. Also having precious memories in this game feels almost like revisiting an old house you used to live in. I often go, "Oh yeah! This is where my friends and I hung out!"
I took the extra time tonight to install and figure everything out. I FINALLY got into the game.
Oh the days of 100+ users online, the grounds full of RPs and groups. I was always a lone player, more lurking and watching others roleplay as so many were creative and intriguing. Most of my interactions were fleeting and in passing. But that's okay, too. I still made some grounded memories here. I have to give thanks to FH for allowing me to reminisce here and the many friends who I interacted with. Oh man isn't it kind of heart-breaking in a way to see the old usernames of your friends list who probably havent logged on in forever? I imagine how many thought the same of me during my YEARS of hiatus.
Regardless, I would like to re-introduce myself. Although never very active on the forums nor in any guild/clan/group I just want to make my presence known as I wander around. I enjoy exploring and have been surprised with some new things I didn't know were added! Like the new home world, er- lonely cave? Anyways. Call me Fearo, always been my user and in-game name. If you see me around don't be shy. Though not much of a talker we can rummage around together and perhaps you all can show me some portals I didn't know existed!
So glad this place is still here.
