Old Introduction Thread (Archive)

[Peasant]

Tell us a bit about yourself
Introduce yourself, tell us how you got here, and what you plan on doing with your winnings if you are chosen. smile

Hey, I'm Peasant, formerly known as Sinelo. I go by Kevin in the real world. I'm 19, going on 20, and working as a freelance web developer. I'm still living in the comfort of my parents' huge house in Loomis, California. For months now, I've been trying to pull myself away from gaming and motivate myself to work more...but I am still a kid at heart. That doesn't stop me from coming up with some great business ideas, though. One of my first steps is moving away from the counterproductive world of Gaia. Though, I didn't just want to disappear and let my items rot, but I also didn't want to give everything away too quickly or to too few people. I wanted to leave my mark in Gaia history. So, in an effort to "go out with a bang," I started the Mil-A-Day Giveaway. And here I am a week later, typing this message to over 850 guild members, just five days from the start of the giveaway when the first million will be given out!  

[MustangDragon]

Hi. I'm MustangDragon (Stang) and I just completed my first quest, for the Angelic Scarf. I've done a lot of vending and some on the exchange, so I know how to work hard for something. I entered contests and applied at charities, which helped a lot. I've got two writing contests lined up to enter now (they start in a few days), so have high hopes for them. I haven't started my quest thread for the Angelic Sash yet, but will in about a week. I'm pooped from the last quest! LOL.

I'm a horse person, have one old mare I've had for 17 years. She's a sweetie, and I'm keeping her going as long as I can. I don't ride her anymore, she's retired now. I have a cat named Jack who is a great mouser. We live on a horse farm (I rent the converted bunkhouse), so there are plenty of mice for him to catch.

I love Gaia, came here from Habbo where the avi's look like ill-formed chess pieces. Ugh. But I do like designing rooms there and have won a lot of contests for that.

Here, the people are more adult, and the avi's are cute and the equipables are great. The forums and guilds are great fun, and just in general this is a wonderful place to hang.

And boy, this is a great guild! Hope I get somethin, but it's a great idea anyway. It's amazing that someone would give away this much gold, after having worked for it (I'm sure). Sounds good, though... getting back to real life. I'm a little older myself (120) (heh) and retired on disability, so this place is sort of a godsend for me. I have friends here that I've urged to join, and I've known some of them as long as 7 or 8 years on line. They are mostly younger than me, but not by much. A few are youngsters, in their teens or early twenties, and I enjoy encouraging them and listening to their problems, plus doing fun games.

Oh, I put the guild banner in my profile, my sig and my store. Don't want anyone to miss out!  

[l Puffy l]

Who am I? How did I get to be me? If I wasn't me, who would I be? How can you mend a broken heart? These are all good questions. Well, almost all good questions���I'm pretty sure the last one is just a Bee Gees song.

Anyway, what I'm trying to say is who I am now is what I was then, plus all the stuff in between, minus a few years during the seventies. Actually, that might not be what I'm trying to say. Here's what I really mean: I was born .I live in a house on some road.
I have these two old people who are my parents , I have one lil person who is my son. I live with a nother person who is my roommate.
lets see what els can I tell you? Hmmm let me think.
My name? You can call me Lynn Or Andy
My location? Really does not matter.
My interests? I am not obliged to answer that. rofl JK that comes later.
My age? Classified. xp
I am a easy going person for the most part. Life is to short not to be.
I love animal. But then again don't most people.
I like movies and books.
I am a jeans and T-shirt girl I do not like to dress up at all. Ya you heard me right i said Girl. blaugh
Now that we have that out of the way lets see what els can i tell you?
Oh hell Use your imagination. xp

oops had to come back and add this
What I would do if I won.
First I wont to say just having a chains is really cool, thanks for giving me this opportunity.
now what I would do is help my best friend buy the last of her dream avi, I would buy a kiki and love her and never let her go. omg ya I know totally obsess with kiki but come on peeps she is so cute.
And I would help out the charity that helped me get started on Gaia and any one else who has donated.
I may tuck a lil away for safe keeping, so I could buy letter after they open if its something like.
Yea that’s about sums it up.

[Miss KP]

celestrian_goddess referred me to the giveaway, that's how I got into the guild; that's also how I know about this giveaway. Though, if I won a million gold, I would buy the items I need for my main quests. With the money I have left, I would help my friends and others with their quest. I would probably open a charity to help people since a lot of people have helped me with my quests.

[zilalmighty]

Hey. You can call me Zilla or Mighty, I'll answer to either of them. Uhm. If I won anything I'd either help myself with my quest (selfish I know, it's human nature) or my little Bro, Dainyus. Or I'd help any of my friends. 3nodding  

[Irian Shin]

~Is known and Irian Shin, and pretty much goes by Iri or Irian...lives in the middle of nowhere, and as friends know, one does not talk much, if at all.~

~Just started on a huge quest, and so far has been pretty productive. Has been a member of Gaia since January, and have been on one quest, for every donation item.~

~Would use the gold for my main quest, but would also help members of my guild with quests of their on as well.~

~Waves hello to everyone, and takes my place on the couch, anxious for the big day!~  

[thun_der_kat]

Heylo.
I'm thun_der_kat, you can call me Thunder.
In this mysterious thing known as "reality", I'm a college kid about a week away from finishing up freshman year.
I'm an obsessive writer with mild cases of both ADD and OCD. domokun

[Eulysa Vilae]

Hey all, my name is Eulysa Vilae, Euli for short. I introduced myself in a thread a few days ago, when there didn't appear to be a formal intro thread, but now that there is, hi again *waves*
I've been on Gaia for just shy of 3 months, I'm a 21 year old sophomore soon-to-be linguistics major. I'm very into arts of all varieties (including performing arts), and science. I do consider myself a huge nerd/geek, but I'm proud of it, so *shrug*. Anyway, I don't know what there is to say really. Hi!  

[Eulysa Vilae]

I totally forgot to answer the what I would do with the winnings if I were chosen. Well, I would certainly indulge my wishlist ^-^ and focus on helping out other members, especially ones who have helped me, cuz I believe in reciprocity, but also newbies who are a little lost, or just need help, as well as old hats who are questing. And I will probably set aside a bit of it to donate back to the guild, cuz I'm learning very quickly how hard it is to gather 1M gold.  

[moonbeam5003]

I'm not great with introductions, but I'm 17 years old (18 in july).
I have 6 nephews and 1 niece and another one on the way.
I'm graduating in 1 month, and I'm really nervous.

If I win, I plan to buy an item or two that I really want, and I'll donate about 100K of it to random quests.
