Hey guys,

I was just signing up for a new website and punched in my old email address into google out of curiosity. I took a stroll down memory lane when it directed me to our old site and I had a great time reading old posts, introductions and spam.

I just thought I should let you all know (out of left field) that I love each and every one of you. When I was back reading those messages I got a flood of emotions that I havent experienced in a long time. I remembered the countless hours I spent sitting in a server with the most eccentric and amazing individuals I've ever had the experience of not meeting.

I wouldnt trade it for anything.

I've grown up a lot since I first met you guys in 03. Im 18, a Freshman in college now, and I realize its been a while since I've come around. I've also come to realize exactly what this clan meant to me. You all saw me through some of the hardest years of my life and embraced me as a brother, and its something I will never forget.

When I look back on everything perhaps the most amazing thing is that it was a video game. The time I spent in server with you guys was countless and perhaps a bit unhealthy; but it meant more to me than you could ever realize.

I hope that some day, our paths cross again. That maybe in the future we might come together once more. But there comes a time for departure, even when the destination is unclear. My only regret is that I didnt do more for a group of people who gave me everything.

I just wanted you to know.


Godspeed, and may the force be with you. Always.

Interesting times, they were.  Especially for you, Aza, considering they were the waning days of the Order.  It's interesting to look back with different eyes and see how things unfolded, hmm?

[Gollum]

I just can't believe how many of us, including myself, put so much time and effort into a clan. Yes, yes, it was "more" then a clan, but this entity was such an article of importance to so many people.

Even so, looking back on those years, I do miss them. 

[Chrono]

Ahh...Good times..Good times.

I wish i could take one day to go back to the JK2 days, when everything was actually together..and fun.

[Teo McDohl]

No doubt.  The days where merely bowing in a duel was fun stuff.  Those were good times indeed  I would go home from the (now) wife's place at 9pm so that I could get on the server before it filled up.

I did a lot of growing up in these halls.
I guess it's just the difference between an activity you do, and one you make a part of your life.

Where'd your WoW character get off to, Jawa?  We miss you.

[Randall Flagg]

He grew up.

Hey Aza.

[Omegamatt Shadowstar]

Hey Aza.

Master of nonchalance.

you're tellin' me.


i am a greater person for the Order, from the Order.

[Seran]

Hey Aza.

Master of nonchalance.

I was thinking a lot, just couldn't think of how to say it.

That about sums it up.

For all the many hours (which prolly add up into months) of headaches, debates, arguments, flame wars, lamers, politics, and so on...I can still honestly say I'd never give it all up.  For each and every negative, there are at least 100 positives.  There's just something about The Order that really was different.  It truly will live on forever, somehow.

(God...do you think we'll be telling our grand-kids stories about our old days with {O}?  That's something crazy to think about!)

[Teo McDohl]

So glad to have baby-sat ya'll while you grew up.  XD  I'm sure QQ will say something along those lines as well.
