This will be the very first message that I leave on these forums.
Dear Mister Chance - In real life, I am a young man struck with an unfortunate medical issue that cannot be cured or overcome, and throughout my life this has caused me a fair amount of grief and depression. Spending an awful lot of time alone at home in between of hospital visits, I was constantly bored with life, and I found it really hard to meet people and make friends.
So I browsed the inter-webs for a game of social nature. EVE online was mentioned frequently as not only a social game, but as a whole world separate to the real one we all live in where the players controlled their own fate. Intrigued by the idea of it all, but far from convinced that the EVE universe was all that it made itself out to be, I went onto YouTube to do further investigation. That's where you come in!
I quickly came across your videos and I thought they were hilarious. I watched every single one of them, even though I sometimes barely understood what was going on since my knowledge of the game was non-existent, and I was thoroughly amused. Seeing what crazy adventures you were able to have in the game and the interactions you had with other players (or customers!) was what convinced me to download the game and throw myself into it. This was about two months ago now.
I am still very much a newbie. I learn tons of new things every day. And I make a lot of mistakes. However, since I started playing the game, I feel an awful lot less bored with my life. I met great people to talk to, and I feel like the whole experiences has greatly affected my mood in a positive way. For the first time in many years, I got really "into" something. For that, I will be eternally grateful.
I will never be healthy. Nor will I ever have a "normal" life. But at least, thanks to you, I have a chance to be happy.
You have my vote, and the first kill I get in my Purifier that I just purchased a few days ago will be dedicated in your honor. |
