My Haypi Experience
When i first started (about 14 months ago), Haypi had just opened the third server, and i was one of the many, many new players to be on that server. OF course, i remember the first time i clicked the chat button. What appeared were two or three people arguing about what the best way to help a new player was. That was probably what got me hooked, the helpfulness and go-getter attitude of the other people. Over the next 2 or 3 months, i learned, very painfully and slowly, how to play, and starting rapidly gaining levels.
I also noticed that i had started spending a disturbing amount of time chatting (probably about 7 hours a day), but i couldn't stop, it was all so interesting and helpful. All that time on chat had distracted me from the game, because i went from being ranked 70-ish, down to almost 500 because i hadn't been playing. It almost pained me to see myself that low, so i started playing again. Hard.
In that one month alone, i remember gaining almost 100k prestige, and jumping from lvl 10 to 12 (i think it was 12 at least). I also had slowly climbed back, and was ranked 200th. That is also when i joined probably the best alliance i was ever in. It was called Republic. The chat was always active, the other members so helpful and friendly. After i had joined them, i gained more and more prestige, learning other styles of fighting, such as cav and archer, which was much different from the cats only army that you were told to use as a noob.
Sadly that time came to an end, and i started playing less. I stopped scouting and farming, and was barely inching by, gaining only 1.2 million prestige over the next 7 months. That was also when i started getting on the forums, and sharing my knowledge of Haypi with others, and that was also the time when i just quit playing server 3 (101 at the time). I still played some crazy high server number (maybe 42 or something, idk anymore).
After starting this game, i played other mmos, but none of them ever had flair like Haypi, so i jsut quit trying to find a better one. This is the greatest mmo on a mobile device. I had always thought that to be true, and still feel it is true, even after being inactive for over 2 months.
It, and it's players, also taught me some valuable life lessons, such as patience, and passion for something you love doing.
