1). Made a pure black wolf and went to South Pole.
2). First characters I ever saw was a "Simba" and a white wolf named "Lindeh", both were literate and very in character.
3). 2 led me to believe that every one around me were NPCs and I was the only player and I was scared as heck of everyone.
4). Going to Bonfire Island for the first time, it was when Bonfire was practically loaded with those 'sex slave' characters, and I became so scared of Fh that I quit for at least a week.
5). After awhile, I began to roleplay noobishly, however with good grammar.
6). Semi-literacy kicked in, and I roleplayed in first person, but in a different language, because I saw others doing so.
7). I made my first new character, a white wolf named Snow Arrow, and roleplayed like that for the longest time until I encountered literacy in the pits of Bonfire.
8 ). I picked up the literacy habit, but yet CONTINUED to think everyone was fake characters, until I slowly began to observe how the interactions were all different...All human.
9). I created my first lion, Serenity, started out as a cub, played with my first friend on Fh frequently, until I slowly lost contact with them do to different timezones.
10). I created my first map, began to figure out all the commands, and really started to get in to the game, actually having fun.
11). I basicly made a new account (this one) to cover up all my illiteracy in the pass, because I felt embarrassed knowing how stupid I was before I actually figured out this game.
