My goodness, how time flies eh?

I don't know how much people use the forums anymore. I was looking through my old screen shots of RS and saw some people I recognized and TIF hit me like a ton of bricks. You all might remember Albel_8492ed, name later changed to just Albel. I would post on that account, but I do not remember the password, and there is far as I can tell, no email associated with it, least I can remember. My original runescape name was Haseo_8492ed. I went by Seaoh for a while, but then got the name Albel in 2014. 

 

To anyone who remembers me and spoke to me, quoted me in the forum games, or gave me grief in my blog back in the day...Thank you. Life has been very good to me these past few years (my last post was in 2018, but the last time I was "active" was in 2015) and it's good to remember the good times. I cannot stress how much this site, and the game of runescape meant to me as a young kid and adult. So much has changed:
 

  • I went to college, twice, and dropped out both times with programs opposite to them...music education, and then electrical engineering.
  • I got engaged in 2014, and then left that relationship due to abuse in 2016.
  • I met my now wife shortly afterwards! We were married on 09/28/2019.
  • My type one diabetes is in much better control. I could drop a few pounds, but all and all very healthy in body.
  • I have a very successful career in banking, primarily working for customers who have major concerns, and trying to resolve them; a case manager.
  • My wife and I bought a house, we have 3 dogs and 3 cats in the family. No plans for children.
  • I became a huge board game nerd. My wife and I now own over 120 board games!!
  • I am proud to say, that I can finally feel like that I "made it" in life. I'm turning 30 this year, but for the first since moving out when I was 23, I feel stable.

Some pictures of me and my life currently.

However, so much has stayed the same. I STILL play runescape!!! I am currently working on 200m slayer, 120 hp, magic, and arch. This game, that has been my entire childhood and young, and now adult hood...is still my game of choice. I have met so many wonderful and amazing people in this game. Because of this game, I got into technology, which has allowed me to be successful in a lot of my life. It also taught me how to communicate with people online, and also in person. It taught me to set small goals, and to realize that rarely is stuff easy....you have to work for it and care deeply to get the most out of it.

I don't really know why I am posting this. Maybe it's to remind myself of all the memories I have of this game and community. This was the game I put the most amount of time in...by far like not even close. 15 years in August and I am not slowing down.

To anyone who spoke to me and cheered me on and encouraged me, thank you. I grew up with this game and community, and it means the absolute world to have met such amazing people. If anyone, would like to hit me up irl, shoot me a message. I'd love to catch up.

Please, take care of yourself, stay safe, and most of all, have fun.

Hey Albel! Long time no see!

Really good to see you're doing well! Sounds like things are settling in for you, that's awesome to hear 🙂

That's an impressive beard, I think you might have Dax beat your most impressive beard from the LOTPW crew, lol

The porn/spam to post ratio could have been a lot better if the mods just gave me the keys a few years back. 

 

Now you moderate a wasteland.

Today I came back to check this place out

I love you all, many Kisses 😘

The once was a mexican called pepsi,

Or maybe it's just he had Hep C,

He was a pretty cool bro,

Bros generally are you know,

He hailed from the land of 'taters,

He was known to hate many-a-hater,

He likes a girl named Lacey,

His thoughts about her are kind of racy,

And also his dad likes to [rooster].

Anyway to grab the Discord code? Would be really great to catch up with the assorted tip.iters of the world! Hope you're all keeping well!

Many believe that the 1980 eruption of Mt. Saint Helens was a catostrophic geological event, in reality it was the day that Jimi Hendrix returned to Earth from the next world and actually stood up next to a mountain and chopped it down with the edge of his hand.

Hello hello, rumors of my demise have been only slightly exaggerated. I'll try to keep an eye out, now that I've managed to get logged in again.

"Fight for what you believe in, and believe in what you're fighting for." Can games be art?
