My journey from nobody to somebody
My adventure was a wild one. From level 0-19. It's like growing up. Start small then get big. I was a nobody that was trying to fit In. Then I met my friend named dize, he helped me through any problem that I encountered.
The funniest thing I ever did was a bit outrageous... I found it hilarious though. People always picked on me as I said before. So I met this expert named Deez. We became good friends and came up with an evil plan. In order to get people to stop farming me we decided to trick everyone. I went into world chat and said Deez was my brother. At that moment my world changed. Nobody messed with me and everyone started respected me. I know it was evil but it needed to be done. I made friends with Tracy a while back. I used to ask her a question just so I could talk to her. I guess it could be called a desperate relationship. Her response when she didn't want to talk to me anymore was the same. "I will look into it and have fun in the game." This pretty much faded off so now we have drifted apart but I know she still misses me.

I was one of those suck ups that try to mail top level players daily. I used to bug the heck out of him. To the point he was going to block me. I then started to be nicer and not mail as often. I joined an ally ally called sentinel. They later merged with -187- which is where dize was. I was to weak to join so I went to te sub. Dize noticed how active I was and invited me to join -187- that's how I got to where I am now.
My alliance has been through a lot, wars and betrayals. I have become acquainted with my friends located there. I had an idea one day to gather everyone's name so we could become more formal. It succeeded very well. Me and many others now call each other by there first names. I think this is a way that we can all become closer and get to know each other. Many of my friends had bad encounters during wars. I usually was safe because I wasn't a very threatening person. But recently I have become a target and lost all my cities. I now know that being the little girl in the corner isnt the man I want to be seen as. I have decided to man up and kick some butt. You mess with me in s101 then you better make a will quick.
I had a friend who was one of those players you don't know was there... He struggled to level up because he wasn't very social. He tried and tried but couldn't do it, I had to help and I did. I gave him treasure and all he needed. I found him hits and resources. He later passed me in rank and decided to attack me. His mistake was one he regretted, I won and emptied his army. I pit myself in his shoes and learned that respect must be given to people, even if they are less valuable then you. A real world example is: you are walking down the street and a homeless person drops all there possessions. What do you do, help them pick them up or keep walking. I learned to help them pick it up because you need to imagine yourself in there shoes. I think we all learn lessons daily here. I learned mine when this happened:
A major problem that I encountered was this player kept picking on me while he was 4 levels higher. It was impossible to beat him but I talked around and people told me cav were best. CAV! I laughed but I tried, after about a week I had a giant cav army... And guess what I beat him. The pleasure I got from actually standing up for myself was a moment that I wouldn't forget.
I experienced first hand what it's like to be rejected as a low level. I started an ally that accepted all people. I tried to be the person that everybody knew as the savior. I made friends with low levels so that I could help and be respected. It became to hard to help because so many people quit. I decided running an ally wasn't for me. I was trying to help but It turned out that I was needing help myself.
I have serious medical conditions that limit the amount I can get online. But I can't keep myself away.The hours just keep adding up. The friends I met here have made me a better me... Even though I may never meet them they still always pray and wish me luck no matter what I do... The players here helped me become a stronger and more sophisticated person. I hope everyone had a nice enjoyable story like mine, I wish you all luck and see you on the field.
