Sojourn Mudders and Where they are Now!
Sojourn Mudders and Where they are Now!
Hey all,
I thought it might be interesting to find out what everyone has been doing since we last played. I know a few people were expecting an addition to the family, were engaged, going to school, stuff like that. A lot of us haven't kept in contact, so while we wait, why not catch up?
For instance, since last we saw our intrepid barbarians, Rho and Gartra, I have changed jobs and we are currently expecting our own little barbarian bundle of joy, due to arrive March 14th.
Anyone else?

Same ol same in RL. Currently wasting my time playing a level 59, almost 60 troll warrior on Veeshan server with Everquest. One thing I dont know if others have run into this problem is trying to decide if I can pull myself away from my new found family to go back to Sojourn. Havent really decided yet but god it will be hard to start all over a third time, im getting too old for this crap =p.

Hey, It's me, I'm not sure how many of you know me...I was mostly grouped with lv50's lv5-30 alt's...So maybe I'm a mystery man to you...though if you were EVER in waterdeep, You would remember my asking if someone would accept Accorns, Hugs, or Tales of Adventure for a Flambie...(No such luck...)
What have I been up to? Well, I turned my life around...I turned my 50's, 60's and 70's of grade eleven into 80's and 90's... Now I'm off at Sheridan College taking the Systems analyst...I've gotten over two broken hearts (one when the MUD closed and one when I found that my girl was cheating with my best friend... ) I had new girls and new muds since, but they weren't the same (the muds that is...) GIRLS KICK @$$!!!
Now I'm just killing the rest of the year so that I can start my 60K/year summer job/co-op... Yeah, and I gained back 35 of the 50 lbs. that I lost when I was depresed over my girl leaving me...
Don't be sad, I'm better off...Older and wiser in the ways of the mud...I MEAN...Love...

Hm... I played EQ for a while. Got a Druid to level 50, then a Monk to level 52, had a guild disintegrate around me thanks to a backstabbing wife of the guildmaster... She hated anyone above level 40, and only wanted to play to roleplay.. Which is fine, but when she sent nasty ass tells to others in the guild for doing bigger hunts, we drew the line and quit.. Formed our own guild, and 5 people I called friends suddenly decided they'd be better off in a pre-existing guild... Which would have been fine actually... had they bothered to follow our gameplan to keep folks together and keep everyone informed. Suffice to say, I jumped ship and sold both my everquest accounts in short order. Of course then my car died and I had to use that cash for that, so I guess I should be thankful... Now I'm mired in mounting debt, have a new job that feels rather tentative, and a girlfriend that is so busy I never get to see her.
Life is good! (God am I looking forward to Soj3... I need something new.)
Malacar/Kelwynne
P.S. - Congrats Rho and Gartra!!! =)

I left school for monetary and health reasons...
(the endless hours of mudding, no sleeping, and liquor at the frat houses didnt help either)
I got a few jobs, finally felt independent
My boyfriend convinced me to move in with him because he was sick of the long distance/seeing other people type relationship
And so I hauled ass from New Jersey to California and life could be better but can't be worse
Got diagnosed with bone problems and diabetes recently so I've spent a lot of time surrounded by pills and needles and tubes and pain
My boyfriend is extremely supportive and we are thinking of engagement in a year or two
How is everyone else?

Wobbalicious has been quietly lurking in the wings waiting to jump back into the swing of things.
I got a real job, (computer technician), enjoying married life (now that I don't mud I can actually pay attention to my wife!) My son is 15 months old, cute little bugger!
Was funny tho, the other day my wife said that I did more housework when I was mudding because I felt guilty. But now that I'm not mudding as often, I spend my time setting up networks, playing basketball etc...hehe boy we got a stack of dishes!
Ahem..anyways..good to see you all around!
Yeah where the heck is Ossisna?
*You have been <blink>Wobbed</blink>*

Not sure if any of you ever knew me, but I can share my life-after-mud story.
Mud went down, got kicked out of school, lost my job, moved to the streets, made a few enemies, got lost in frenzie of constant self-indulgence...
Heard mud was coming back, got my $#!t strait, (I'll spare you the details), became a semi-responsible memeber of society... well maybe not, but I am resting comfortabley, cleanly, and safely waiting for the mud to be revived. Hope all is well for everyone. See you soon.

Since Soj2 closed, I graduated from university and started a job as a database analyst, but am still playing with routers in my free time and hope to switch back to internetworking once I have built a foundation here.
As for the important stuff, I'm a playing 50-something Monk on the Veeshan server of Everquest and enjoying a pretty kickass team (except Pheten of course). Dont think I have time for two addictions, and have the feeling that, if you can 'beat' Sojourn, its been done. But if Soj3 turns out to have alot of new challenges for oldtimers you may see me more than I expect .
Cheers! Matt/Mplor

Hi hi all.
Since leaving Soj2 I have hmm, increased my grades at uni, and I am now working for one of Austrlaia's largest telecommunications companies. Sure it has nothing to do with my mining engineering degree, but it pays the bills.
I have a girlfriend too We have been seeing each other for a while now - still going as strong as ever. It's my birthday soon too, and I will be 20 years young... it makes me feel like a baby on here sometimes :P
Looking forward to spending a bit of late night, quality time with the Aussie crew of Soj2!

After Toril closed, I had much more free time. I was already burnt out in school, had two more years to go. Started full time at the ISP I was working. Lost a girlfriend (thank goodness). Got another (even better).
Left the ISP business for a year and half for Unix programming for a medical company doing system conversions. Liked it OK. But wanted more action such as I felt in the ISP.
Got a job offer from a guy I met in the ISP business. Left a job making good money, which had been around for 17 years to work for a broadband Internet upstart, which had been around for less than a year. Turns out, I made a good decision. The company's becoming very successful, though I put in long hours.
I got married, bought a house and adopted two cats .
I'm looking forward to mudding with all the people I once knew.

Wow... it's interesting reading through this thread. It looks like those who played Soj/Toril in the past all had bright futures
As for myself, I was in my last semester of college when Toril went... on vacation. At the time I was working as a technician at Voodoo Computers, based in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Since that time we've enjoyed an amazing amount of publicity in the computer world (particularly the gaming market) and I'm having an awesome time as a senior technician/sometimes web developer for them. I'm also working for another small web development company on the side. Basically I'm on Cloud 9 doing exactly what I want to do right now!
Just wait till the MUD comes back up. *chuckle* We'll see if I can pay as much attention to work then...

Moved to Michigan to work for MediaOne with Miax. Working for the Telephony department. We're offering telephone service over the cable lines. Now working for ComCast after AT&T bought MediaOne and traded my region.
Bought a house last summer. Things are going well so far. Have a roommate that's into gaming and basically have a lan party every weekend. Also help run Michigan's largest lan part, MPCon. www.mpcon.org

Since 1998? Had two very attractive job opportunities come my way, neither of which worked out (*cough*).
Got an editorial job in 1999 and rented a duplex seven miles from Capitol Hill (Washington, DC). I've been at this job for two years, getting great performance reviews/raises doing something I enjoy.
I spend my weekends with my D&D 3E group, or at RPGA conventions leveling my Living Greyhawk monk (next convention Madicon, March 23rd!!!).
Also, I'm writing a D&D module for my region, "Geoff."
All in all, there were some scary moments, but now I can honestly say that life is good. I'll be moving to a house in north Arlington with a gaming friend in June. All i need now is a new switch with more jacks for LAN Parties!
Great to see Ilshadrial, Tagad, and a few others again!
Mask: that your Cisco Catalyst 5505? That's some serious hardware ($14k) *dools with envy*

Ummm, Aradune? A graphical mud thingy? *rofl*
Ruhr, it's actually the University of Michigan - Dearborn's 5505. We just use it. We had 1 5505 with 2 24 port 10/100 cards, 3 2924s, 10 3Com 12 port 10 meg switches, and 2 3Com 12 port 100 meg switches there. Good network. This is our 3rd LAN with 100+ people and we had no problems.

Hey there. I finished college finally after years and years with an AS Degree in Computer Networking Engineering and working on some web sites on the side getting some more money to pay my way for the next step in the chain in classes. I also moved up to another company of AT&T Wireless for bill collection and have moved up in the ladder with that current profession. The next best thing to the mud is currently playing on Cazic_Thule Server of Everquest and currently have a level 42 wood elf ranger and a level 32 wood elf druid, but when the mud comes back up not telling what's going to happen.

See long winded post titled .....
Since a lot of you have asked...
But briefly, went insane, traveled 2000 miles north to hang out with Trewe/Yahli, got drunk, stoned and tattooed, started a few online businesses, still insane but working on finding happiness.
Current businesses, www.aussie-hosting.com
www.greatlakesonline.com.au
and my partnership business with Yahli is www.isyourtown.com

Eh....what I did after Sojourn went down.....
Played some Duris, wrote, managed to crash my computer 28 bazillion times because you just can't fit that many mp3's on a 6.4 gig hard drive....lol.
Let's see, what else...got engaged, started a new job this past Tuesday for Wonderbread, making 35k...not too shabby, just something to pay the bills until I can finally finish one of the dozens of manuscripts I've started (and get it published of course).
Probably still won't get to mud much after Sojourn 3 opens up...the woman hates me being in zMUD...she already knows what's gonna happen...even though she can spend hours on dorky-ass Yahoo and AOL chatrooms....hypocrite (LOL). Hmmm...what else....oh yeah, managed to put on 40 lbs *gag* in the past 9 months, workin that off now.
Other than that life's been rather drab and boring. :P
_\|/_
Ryan/Yasmonkey
P.S. I'm probably the only Sojourn person who has never played EQ....or Starcraft...or Quake....or Diablo....or....well you get my drift :P (Wondering if I should feel pathetic and sorry for myself *cackle*)

I more or less stopped playing sojourn a long, long time ago... came back for soj2 but not really as Thengil then. When almost all the Mailed Fist guys were finally gone some of the joy of playing Thengil went away, so I went for other chars mainly. Since then I still haven't managed to get the Masters degree I've been working on since '92 but I managed to be involved in a mobile IT startup that turned out pretty well... so that's where I work now
Playing Baldurs Gate II, 3rd Ed D&D pen and paper, Vampire: Dark Ages pen and paper when I get the time for it... which sadly doesn't happen often enough

you know . . .for someone who has been working computers for 13 years . . .one might think that i would have learned something or started an eBusiness or some such. . .nope, not me. damn muds. i can proudly say that i have logged over 30k hours online without ever having made any halfass amount of a living doing it.
:P
but damn do i miss sojourn . . . other than duris and medievia, i haven't had much to do, i need the mud so that i can stop fucking up my RL with that burden known as time. PS - it looks like im gonna be a car salesman. snicker. 6 years driving and i have never even owned a used car, much less bought one at all. anyway - ill be looking to scam my bosses out of money, that means cheap cars for other homeless mudders :P

*is so happy all her friends are back*
anyway..
Well, I've been happier since my depressing post a week ago
After many trips to doctors and hospitals
I was told today that my diabetes is mild and they are 90% sure they can control with just pills! *does a happy dance*
My boyfriend has been so loving and supportive that I spent less time crying and more time laughing even with all the bad tasting food I'm forced to eat now
I will probably be playing Exile, Sojourn, and Everquest, or at least trying to give all three equal attention although I am sure Sojourn will overshadow both
Love you all
as Ragorn says,
Jenera the sexy invoker chick
anyway..

Hrm. Since mud went down. . .let's see. Decided to try exile for awhile, then decided I missed sojourn, then decided I'd concentrate on school, then decided I'd concentrate on booze, then decided I'd go back and play exile until I graduate in May.
Yup, that has been my life (My RP story sounds much the same)
Seriously though, things are going good for this freak of a barbarian. I graduate with a B.A. in English and a B.A. in Communication, then I have to find a job that isn't in a bar so that I can afford a computer of my own when I can't mooch off the school's internet connection anymore The job search is the scary part though. . .I'm not sure if I really wanna grow up Figure that 5 years in college is enough though and I will be hella happy to get out of Jamestown, North Dakota. (If anybody ever tells you that hell can't freeze over, tell them to check the Jamestown temperature!)
That's about all!

Ahh, since the mud crashed over a year ago *ponder*. I took a long break from mudding... one needs to do that from time to time to keep the spirit of the mudder strong.
After that I decided to try out exile, but it didn't grab me. After that I ventured to Duris where I teamed up with Isy-dork (ragorn) and Gorm.
Now after duris has wiped, and that S3 is opening up soon I'm going to take another break in order to keep that mudding spirit going! I'll see you all when it opens up

Hey kids!
Let's see... I've moved to a new state, found a new girlfriend who later became my fiancee and will become my wife in a little over 3 months...
Nothin much changed here. :P

aka Cardorklan, Cardiepoo, Canospam, Candyland, and many other things I probably shouldn't repeat in mixed company...

Where you from in nj??? <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR><font face="Verdana, Arial" size="2">Originally posted by Jenera:
<B>I left school for monetary and health reasons...
(the endless hours of mudding, no sleeping, and liquor at the frat houses didnt help either)
I got a few jobs, finally felt independent
My boyfriend convinced me to move in with him because he was sick of the long distance/seeing other people type relationship
And so I hauled ass from New Jersey to California and life could be better but can't be worse
Got diagnosed with bone problems and diabetes recently so I've spent a lot of time surrounded by pills and needles and tubes and pain
My boyfriend is extremely supportive and we are thinking of engagement in a year or two
How is everyone else?</B></font><HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

Hey Ara, now that you have a Ferrari, can I have your old NSX for cheap?
Hmm, after Thruar quit soj2, I quit too.. No fun without rl friends.
I work for a small biomedical company that is entering the software development market. I've been working at the company for a little close to two years now. I went part-time during the fall to take a few classes towards a bachelors in cs/cis (only have an AS degree). During this time I felt like I should move on so I told my boss I'm going to start looking for another job. Unfortunately, I can't find any, and am still searching (all the layoffs in the tech sector, argh). So right now i'm sorta in between jobs I suppose. I don't feel right asking for my full-time position back when I might find another job and leave. oh well *sniff*...
Well, good thing is I have a lot of free time now. I will probably take some classes for MCSE certification (I better do this before I run out of money hee). Every damn company seems to want something like that if you don't have a bs degree. Other than that, I got several hobbies I can better myself in during the free time.
I'll be checking out soj3 cuz several rl friends want to play. I kinda get hyped when that happens.

P.S. thanks for letting me rant about my life!

Might as well add my stuff to here... had it on the old email list but I guess there are new people here that didn't read that :p
To those that knew me I'm currently in my first year of law school. In between massive study sessions and other indecent activities I still find some (limited) time to login to EQ. Still on Veeshan /w a 54 war, though far less than the past couple years. School has taken up virtually all my time but I still like to hang with some old friends once a week or so when time provides.
Hope all is good with everyone, back to work
