I'm back!

Post by Controlled Chaos »

Started playing again about 5 days ago and I even managed to recover my old forum account! :woot:

Anyways, I'm Cruel Kindness ingame. So far I've been extending my knowledge of herbal supplements and vitamins to anyone who wants to ask about an ailment or just general advice. I'm not a doctor, but I've been selling pills and potions for the past 4 years and I've learned a lot from the CNS that works with me. Also, I won't give you any bullhockey. If I don't know something, I'm perfectly comfortable telling you as much. :wink:

Anyways, just wanted to say hi to everyone, so... Hi, everyone!

Hi!

This sounds like biodegradable swimming pool material.....or your trying to subtlety suggest you can provide a "service"
Your last posts are from 2009 and then suddenly re-appear with intent to provide knowledge on "snake oil"

Just looks a bit fishy........no offense.

I also figure, if your intentions are truly honorable, you could easily respond to my doubt with ease and we can all get along.

Otherwise, glad to see an old player return!

Heh, I'm sure that does sound a bit hokey. I figure it's an easy way for people to remember who I am by identifying me with an idea. "That's that guy that talks about herb pills" kinda thing.

Long story short, I used to play here years ago and eventually moved on to other games. I recently decided I wanted to revisit UO so... here I am! :D I have fond memories of three UO servers among all the ones I tried in the past. (I won't mention specifics to avoid any possible rules infractions.) One is completely defunct, one I liked because my friends played there, and this is the third. I was really glad when I found UOEX still running after all this time. :woot:

You're entitled to think I'm some weirdo, but at least don't think I'm some kind of spambot. :worried:

Edit for clarity: I don't expect anything in return if people want to ask me questions. I'm not trying to offer a "service" beyond freely sharing whatever information I can with people that seek it.

Sorry, dude, was just poking too see if there was a follow up, which pretty much proves your the original. Was worried someone somehow was using your info to spam some sort of pill scam. I mean the whole, order this and that from x,y,x, is a pretty common one in spam folders etc.

I probably should of worded it in a less self-righteous way in case it was a real person, my apologies.

I don't think your a weirdo btw, i'd have to speak with you first to make that determination, and from the syntax of your response i can tell your perfectly level.

Was just making sure this was not a bot.

Also i think this is a good example of a player, me, unnecessarily taking, i guess security duties, when staff have that stuff under control.

Now i have to deal with the public shame...but its all good :)

REGARDLESS....WELCOME BACK!!

No, no public shame! I completely understand your initial suspicion. A 6 year old forum account suddenly comes back to life: suspicious. Said accounts's first post in 5 years reads like a commercial: really?

I've been working in retail too long, my default setting is customer service. :oops:

Anyways, thanks for the welcoming, hopefully I'll be making more significant contributions to the community soon (as soon as my toon is done training).
