ALFA always had it's ups and downs and behind the curtains drama and general asshattery were usually mentioned as the top culprits for people leaving the community. Lucky for me, when I joined back in 06, Daggerford had something like 8-10 players every night of the week and being too busy playing, I had very little time to get annoyed by the bad parts. Things seem to have taken a turn for the better though, with forums more friendly towards new (and old) members and people in charge more focused in making ALFA a better community and gaming experience, instead of just trying to play king of the world. That's something that I can recognize even now that I'm mostly gone.
As for the people, I enjoyed playing with almost every one I met IG, being players or DMs. But some made a more lasting impression.
Angel Caller, Rick, Red Menace and all it's playerbase. People loved to trash DF and in some points they were right. It had more wealth and magic than any other server I played in, but it also had something to do and someone to do it with every time I wanted to play and it was a blast.
Danielmn, for always being true to his characters and for never being afraid of getting them completely screwed up if the situation called for it, even if it meant plucking his own eye out to help save his friends.
Miz and Brokenbone, for having the patience to put up with my n00bery with the DM client and making my time as a DM in Daggerdale more fun than I hoped for.
Halrin, for all the good fun we had playing together until you dropped from the face of the earth. Bastard. >:/
Misty, for making Laurelin.
FI and all the players that had a PC in her two year long (and still running) campaign, for giving me the most fun I ever had playing this game.
) *huggles all!* I mean, how do you thank all those people, around the World, who helped make all these awesome,painful,beloved memories of ALFA, that i have...
