Just a hint to everyone - you should not post your stats publicly, especially if you post your account name.
Oh - and don't fall for the old tricks, when a higher level player tries to get you to attack them... don't do it.

Stats? Wazzat? I don't got no stats!

I got stents - 2 in fact - Coronary Stents. Sorry: Not for sell. These are keepers at any lvl :D

------
Almost 2 years ago I went to my doc and insisted on a complete checkup because of my age.
They found the left coronary artery in bad shape - but I had not had any symptoms at all.
After 45 years of smoking - 8 years smoke free now | 31+ years no booze - but the19 years before that are a blur.
So, caught it in time and within 72 hours I had 2 stents.
So here we are today, complete life style change. Bus? I don't take no bus, I walk everywhere - 15 blocks to our little "downtown" and back = 35-40 mins I do that at 'least' 15 times a month. Eat a whole bunch healthier and feel better than I did at 50 (seriously), my family doc is a bit jealous, he's a year old then I am and, well, looks and feels 10 more. :D

Yeah...
That one's classic....
saw that on my very first day in the game, over 3 years ago...

I'm level 6, you're like 70+....
hmmm...

oh, and don't be fooled when they talk about you gaining xp either
sure, you get a fraction of xp if you kill them
but I bet you won't

Now this I knew not!

=== 06/07 OCT 2017 ===
To continue ... anyone remember Frankie Valli & Oh, What A Night
To mangle the words a tad:

Oh, what a night.
Late last night in '17.
What a very special time for me,
'Cause I'll remember this night.

Oh, what a sight.
You know, I'll never forget HIS name,
And I'm never gonna be the same.
What an OGRE. And what a night.

Soooo, there I was fighting red mummies to lvl up.
{pop} there's this big green ogre in my face staring at me with that eye!
That eye that strikes fear in the hearts and minds of enemies everywhere.
See's right through you it does, almost had a heart attack I did.

GOLGREN: HULLO!
LK: Hi whatcha doin'? {knees wobblin'} <<-- not really but makes for good affect!

And that started one of THE best evening / early morning adventures I've had in FT world to date.
GOLGREN took me on a world tour of FT that would make Marco Polo proud, and of course would have killed me without his presence.

I killed a lot of different creatures, red mummies, blitz bees, and warlocks - quite a few of those in fact. We found a place where they give 150exp and with TANK GOLGREN it didn't even hardly cost any health. There were a couple of OPPS! fat finger moments, but nothing serious

Some of the enemies that I had the pleasure of meeting standing in a safe zone near my friend I just hacked away at; rainbow spiders, glowing spiders, green spiders. But these Southernsun Mushyman and the Worm OH MAN! Couldn't even dent them ... GOLGREN is just standing there like they are little sand flies buzzing/crawling around. Then WAM! BANG! BOOM! room cleared. OH WHAT A SIGHT!!!!!

Another incident - walked into a new map area and WHAM! Both my pets died, must have been painless as it was INSTANT. OOPS! Good thing they weren't carrying anything.

And the the coop-de-gra (spelling) for the night. Deep in some dungeon GOLGREN disappears up some stairs ... I follow ... there I am surrounded by three buildings - NO GOLGREN - lots of funny little guys running around with [some kind of French cheese]NAMES. OH NO A clan zone!!!!

POP a PM: GOLGREN: DOWN! - gee, ya figure! Obviously I had invaded some clan territory. Now, as we were making our retreat, I was counting fingers and toes - All present and accounted for.

Oh what a night - Oh what a sight!
My gratitude to GOLGREN for a wonderful experience, otherwise impossible.

Started this little trip at lvl67 and ended at lvl 70 thanks to GOLGREN!
Now to try and get some new equipment!!!

EDIT: (Sep 2022) some spelling OOPSIES!
