What is your Name? - Pevil
______________________________
What is your Discord Name (name#1111) ? - Pevil#1854
______________________________
What is your Age? - 37, but both an old fart or a child at heart depending on my mood
(as long as you are kind, handle yourself with maturity, you are welcome! Just know many of us are old farts.)
______________________________
Where are you from? (location/timezone) - England, GMT/BST
______________________________
Have you read the rules? Do you agree to them? And which rule resonates best with you? - Yes and yes. No drama is the perfect one. I've been in a few gaming communities and the ones I've stayed in were the no drama ones. Real life has enough, no need for it in our down time.
______________________________
Do you understand(written above) you must be active in order to maintain your membership status to the community? - Yes
______________________________
Do you have any friends who are Members? If so, who? - None in particular but been playing UOAlive for a month now
______________________________
How did you hear about the Crafting Worlds? - via the UOAlive discord
______________________________
Why do you want to be a part of Crafting Worlds? (this is probably the most important one) - Because it sounds ideal; a friendly, understanding, creative community. I enjoy online games but tend to hide away and solo in most as far too many people on the internet are judgemental or just like to be mean for no reason. I like to group up and try to help out but need to know I can make some mistakes occasionally without getting shunned
______________________________
What was your first/favorite creative outlet? (optional) - drawing. Taken a long break from it but recently picked up digital art; a steep learning curve from pencil sketches.
______________________________
What were your first gaming experiences? (Console, PC, pen & paper, board games etc.) - ZX Spectrum!
______________________________
What games are you currently playing/looking to play with the Crafting Worlds community? - UO and New World
______________________________
What role do you find yourself falling into in games? (For example: PvP, PvE, Casual/Social, etc.) - PvE casual, particularly healing, gathering and crafting roles
______________________________
Were you ever a part of a community? What was your experience? - a few, the main ones: A great guild in Istaria where we chat and help each other a lot (still part of this). A now defunct guild called Clan DA/Descendants of Ancaria that primarily played Sacred and Guild Wars but was in other games too; this was an amazing community I was part of from around 2004 - 2019 but sadly most of the members drifted away in the last few years. And the official Sacred forum. I was obsessed with that game, so much so that I created the first (and only one, for a few years) English fansite for it and became an official moderator due to the guides and help I gave to the players until the company sadly went bankrupt. The main thing with all these communities was friendly, fun people that I could connect with even if we didn't always see eye to eye.
______________________________
What will you bring to the Crafting Worlds community? (Chatty? Skilled? Funny? Helping? Cookies!?) - Crafting, healing, probably some dumb blonde moments.
______________________________
Tell us about yourself or anything else you'd like to share. The more we know about your the better! - general geek/nerd. I still game far too much, though not as much as I used to (I remember a 16 hour day in UO once to finally GM Mining). I also love to read (Discworld novels by Terry Pratchett are my favourite or some Stephen King) and as mentioned above I'm getting back into my drawing. I had some health issues (Cushing's, affects 1 in a million, might as well go for the rare stuff!) the last few years that sometimes means I have awful reflexes or no concentration so I have days where I want to do nothing but craft rather than try to fight monsters. My boyfriend is usually gaming on the PS5 next to me so I tend not to jump into voice chat usually but always happy to type away. I wholly agree forums shouldn't die out; Discord is great for a current, multi-person conversation but forums just can't be beaten for knowledge and more themed conversations.
