I’m a bit sad today..

Sad, because the game that introduced me to friends online has also made me realize that not all things stay the same. Ragnarok Online unlike any other online games I’ve played, makes me really happy. Emphasis on the really because it really does. It wasn’t the first online game I’ve played but it was the first game that I truly fell in love with. Cheesy, huh. I’ve been through a lot - winning small events, invested so much time and even money, got hacked, scammed and even got my heart broken. But I was sure that it was because of all these experiences that I felt that my social life was very alive even if I was just in front of the computer. I met friends from this game. The reason why Ragnarok Online is a game that I constantly come back to is because of my friends. I met my friends for almost 8 years in our country’s official server back when we were young and were still in what we call “jeje” stage. I could only provide a short description here, but these friends namely Jen, Lisha, Aica, Kring and Ella (we lost contact a few years ago) were the people I never thought I’d share an 8-year friendship with. What makes it fun is that even when RO’s official server in the PH closed down 3 years ago, we still played the game through different private servers. It’s just sad that most of the private servers we played eventually closed down too.. but that isn’t strong enough to stop playing the game we enjoy.

I’m grateful to the Lord that He has given me friends likes them even if we don’t always communicate (busy lives IRL lol). I’d also like to thank the owners of Facebook and Discord for creating instruments of communication (HAHA). Anyway, the real reason why Ragnarok Online also made me sad is because it is where I saw how my friends transitioned to a “regular gamer in the game” to “busy with real life” kind of person. I might be exaggerating because my friends and I still play the game but I always get the feeling that it wasn’t like before - that we might have reached the point that we’d go into our own separate ways. It isn’t THAT major actually. I think I am just exaggerating (seriously). But seriously speaking, I guess we just can’t control that. I have RO friends who are able to play the game while busy with work/studies. That’s great and all but when I think about the future, I realize that it won’t be the same. My friends and I might meet opportunities in real life with regards to their career paths.. even love. Get what I’m saying? We might have played War of Emperium in different private servers, collected costumes and headgears, helped each other with equipment sets, fangirled when seeing a hottie player (hehe), meeting each other in real life or just simply sat and did little chit-chats in the area we that we became friends -- Payon Forest BUT who knows what the future holds? As we grow older, we realize that Ragnarok Online has always been a part of who we are but we just can’t stay in it forever, can we? That thought scares me.. That we would arrive to the point that we have to bid our goodbyes to each other because we have bigger responsibilities and opportunities but at the same time, thanking them for the great x years of friendship. In simple terms, that we might permanently stop playing the game.

Ragnarok Online wouldn’t be Ragnarok Online if it weren’t for all the experiences and memories made with our friends. We might live a hundred or a thousand miles apart (I’m the farthest tbh. We have friends abroad but in the PH, I’m the farthest from my friends living here in the country), but thanks to internet connection and mobile data, the 8 years of playing felt like my friends were just like real life friends. Throughout the 8 years, I have not only met the 5 friends I mentioned earlier. I call it “group”, this “group” has grew by meeting different people in both official and private servers.

 ~TIMELINE~ OF THE GROUP! 

2010-2011: Firsts

 I was part of this “group” called Tropang Payon Forest (TPF), the first word is in Filipino which means Tropa or Friends in English so it’s like Friends in Payon Forest. I think they already existed even before 2010 (the year I first played Ragnarok Online) and by that time Payon Forest was filled with people but some people stopped playing by 2011. I temporarily stopped playing around January 2011 and played again on October of the same year. When I came back, Payon forest was empty. January was still filled with people summoning monsters from dead branches! Wth. It was then I discovered that some players migrated from Payon Forest to Prontera Field! These two maps share something in common: They are both located south of Payon Town and Prontera respectively. I visited Prontera Field, it became a place where I could spend my time AFK-ing but the people there weren’t the same people in Payon Forest - my friends quit the game. I don’t know why because I kind of “left” my friends back then. I got really sad because my account got hacked and even got my friend’s item stolen. 

2011-2012: Reunion

 By this time, I got in touch with some of my friends (Jen and Lisha). I deleted my RO friends when I quit in 2011 because I did not want to be reminded of the game anymore so I added them again when I played again until news spread and my friends played the game again. It was also this time that I first played a private server with them! I also met additional TPF friends, Erika and Nald.

2013: Private Servers again

We played a private server but I had to temporarily stop playing because I was busy with school. In a certain server (Fatal RO), Lisha and Kring who stayed active made friends there. These friends, we still communicate with them from time to time even played with them around 2016-2017. Hello to the friends I made here even if I was inactive. Hi Ronnie! There were some others but I actually never got to become official friends with them, it happened in 2016 though.

2014: Official Server

Ever since school became busier, I only played during summer vacation, semestral and Christmas breaks but if my memory serves me right, we played in the Official server during this time.

2015: Busy, Official server closed down

We got really busy and inactive but I wasn’t that sad because we still communicated with each other through social media.

Late 2015: New Private Server

A friend of ours made a private server so we decided to play RO again. Negative RO was the name. I stopped playing because of school around January 2016.

2016: FO

Not finger offensive but friendship over. A LOT happened during this year. I still play during vacation, when I came back March 2016, my friends had really strong equipment now. Their guild was really strong and I was kinda left out (HAHA). Good thing my friends were there to help me so I was able to join a few wars. The best WoEs happened when I wasn’t around (daaamn it), so when I came back there were a few people because apparently, my friends’ guild always had the advantage of beating them. I think the server only had two guilds left playing and this was where friendships started to fall. I hope nobody from TPF/Fox reads this because I’m going to narrate bits of a conflict  that appeared out of nowhere.

NOTE: My narration will only be one of the things that have caused problems between the persons involved. I don’t have the best memory out there and I will narrate only what I remember correctly!

My friend, L was the guild leader of Fox (our guild) and there was a time that she could not play in a certain WoE night. She passed the guild leader position to S, a good player in my opinion but S had a poor connection so he wasn’t able to play properly. J, got disappointed and thought that the guild leader position should have been passed to someone else (I think L liked S and also thought that S had the potential to lead the guild) but J was still upset. Bla bla bla I was busy with school and then a notification from Messenger showed up. A new group was made without L. This was another guild but had the Fox members in it except for L. I felt bad for L so I stayed with her for a while, we were both in a guild led by her friend. I was still busy because of school that time so I still wasn’t that active, I even hoped that J and L would fix the problem. It didn’t happen. Things even got worse (won’t narrate them because I might write wrong information because my memory isn’t that good especially when it comes to things like these lol + read NOTE above). When school ended, I played again. I decided to play with the new guild so L also became an enemy in WoE. I think I was neutral at that time(?). I wanted them to be friends again. 

The private server also closed down without them being friends again. L still plays with us when she isn’t busy until now.

Problems aside, I also made friends with people I should have met if it weren’t for me being inactive for sooo long. Will greet them through the letters of their first names. Haha. I’m too shy to actually greet them loool. Basta yon. If ever one of you reads this (super duper low probability of ever happening), I included short descriptions of how we met OR a random description about you! Hi to my good friend Z which I talked more in iRO, Japan friend G, Digital artist D, cousin of a classmate of mine J, became friends because I adopted him c, cousin of the person before this N, ROPH friend M, event gm I, love of the life of a friend of mine E, and another gm R. 

Late 2017: New Server again

I was in 12th grade, graduating actually. I became really busy by this time! My friends played another server. They were all there but I wasn’t because I was super busy with school as usual. I became friends with R also a Negative RO player and RoS master A. I was too late for all the action. When I played, there were two guilds left playing! Whew.

2018: The present

Who would’ve have thought that we’d come this far? It has been 8 years since I played Ragnarok Online, met different people and had my own share of good and bad memories. As I type this super long composition, I only hope that our future may be good for each of us. Ragnarok Online isn’t the only game that we are playing now, there are many to mention! Just kidding. I’m sad that we might not play Ragnarok Online in the future anymore but I’m happy to have come across people who turned into friends that I can keep in my lifetime. Very cheesy. Masyadong OA, I tell myself. But friends or companions are one of the main factors to be able to keep playing a game. Playing becomes really boring when your friends don’t play with you anymore and I’m really happy and thankful that my friends have stayed the same fun people I met when I first talked to them. Lord, I cannot thank You enough! You have given me the opportunity to meet all the other people I’ve met in Ragnarok Online. I hope we cross each other in private servers again because I miss playing with everyone. I know we just recently played a private server but I have to focus on my responsibilities too. 

All the love,

[honoredsage]

Top 5 heartbreaks ko.

Sa basketball.

Compilation ng mga heartbreaks ko as a fan ng basketball. Naisip kong gawin to kasi natalo ang Gilas 2 days ago sa SoKor, in a really humiliating way.

5. 2007 PBA Fiesta Conference Finals Game 7 (Talk ‘N Text Phone Pals vs Alaska Aces) – Throwback tayo ng elementary days ko. Grade 5 ata ako neto. Sobrang hyped ako neto kasi game 7 ng finals, at sobrang nagagalingan ako nun kay Mac “Captain Hook” Cardona. Kaya actually isa ang hook shot sa natutunan kong tira sa basketball kasi sya best player ng TnT nun (kahit actually naman, karamihan ng shots nya ay tear drop). Eto rin ang una kong tanda na Game 7 sa alaala ko. Masakit to kasi tanda ko lagi na ang projection ay every time na makaka-30 points si Cardona, mananalo TnT. Down by 3 ang TnT, possession nila. Kahit elementary pa lang ako, tandang-tanda ko nangyari. Inbounds pass, ang gusto ko actually makakuha ng bola ay si Cardona, or at least si Alapag, pero yung import namin ang sumalo, si Sullinger. Sablay 3 points nya. Champion ang Alaska. Points ni Cardona nun? 29. Baka may naiba kung naka-30 points sya nun.

4. 2014 NBA Playoffs – First Round (Houston Rockets vs Portland Trailblazers) – 3 teams ang sobrang fan ako, Gilas Pilipinas, TnT Katropa, at Houston Rockets. Medyo in-order din yan. Syempre pinaka-last yung Rockets kasi mga 2009 ata or 2008 lang ako naging fan nila at mga 2012 ata or 2013 na lang ako sumubaybay. Pero iba tong playoffs na to kasi nasa US kami nun. Ibig sabihin, makakapanood ako ng live ng playoffs. At since laging improving ang Rockets nun since dumating si Harden nung 2012, sobrang hopeful ako. Portland kalaban nila nun. Game 6. Lahat ng games nila ay competitive. 3-2 ang series, lamang Portland. So win or go home ang Rockets. Sobrang dikit ng Game 6 at tuwang tuwa ako nung naka-score si Parsons sa Rockets to give a 2 pt lead. Kaso napansin ko may 0.9 second pa, so di pa ako maka-celebrate fully. Possession ng Portland. Na-inbound kay Lillard. Nasa labas sya ng three point arc. Pumasok. Sobrang sakit nun kasi isa yun sa mga season na sobrang natutukan ko ang Rockets, pero di ko naman inaasahan pati yung masakit nilang pagkatalo ng ganun, matututukan ko rin.

3. 2017 FIBA Asia Cup Quarterfinals (Gilas Pilipinas vs South Korea) – Eto pinaka-recent, 2 days ago lang. Sumubaybay na ako sa Gilas Pilipinas ng mga 2012. Jones Cup actually, nung nanalo sila against US. Napaisip tuloy ako kung bakit pinaka-recent ako naging fan, ng national team pa. Ang sagot ay nung elementary, PBA lang focus ko nun, at sa naaalala ko, Grade 4 or 5 na ako medyo tumutok talaga sa TnT. Highschool naman, medyo lie low ako sa pagiging fan ng basketball. So 2012 ay 4th yr HS na ako nun. At sa span ng pagiging fan ko, nakita ko ang steady improvement ng Gilas. Sa 2013 at 2015 FIBA Asia Championships, parehong 2nd place ang Gilas at tinalo nila nun ang SoKor at Iran, respectively dun. At, coming in sa QFs na ito, natalo na rin ng Gilas ang China, which is a big, big upset. Considering na wala si Blatche na import at injured si Fajardo, Filipino fans were in a euphoria. Na-sweep na rin ng Gilas ang bracket nila. Parang for Gilas, there is no way to go but up. Then QFs came. Gilas lost by 32 points to SoKor. Idagdag mo pa na sa last 10 outings ng Gilas against SoKor, 9 dun talo Gilas. Pero based sa research ko, eto lang ang total landslide. Unlike sa ibang losses ng Gilas sa Korea na masakit kasi close games lahat (or at least competitive), masakit to kasi sobrang unexpected. Losing like that to our so-called rivals was painful. Napahiya Pilipinas eh. Eto yung type na ang saya tapos biglang boom, lungkot. Gilas played at their worst in the worst possible time, with SoKor playing their best. It was a tragic ending on what was supposed to be a fairy tale to Gilas.

2. 2012 PBA Commissioners’ Cup Finals Game 7 (Talk ‘N Text Tropang Texters vs B-Meg Llamados) – Eto lang ang nagpaiyak sakin haha. Nagbalik loob ako as a solid fan ng PBA (and syempre TnT) nung 2012. Nagsimula to nung sa previous conference, All Filipino, bumawi ang TnT down 3-1 nung semis against Petron tapos sila nag-champion sa Finals against Powerade, 4-1. Nagtitingin-tingin ako sa net nung mga panahon na lie low ako as a fan para at least may balita ako sa TnT. At unfortunately, kung kelan ako naglie-low, dun sunod-sunod championships ng TnT. Tanda ko nung nabasa ko na nakuha ng TnT si Kelly Williams, Ryan Reyes saka Fonacier nabigla ako kasi alam kong ang lalakas nun. Pero feeling ko kasi ang busy ko nung high school kaya wala ako time manuod. Pero ayun, balik loob na nga. Game 7. All-or-nothing. Nasubaybayan ko lahat (or halos lahat) ng games ng TnT that conference. Sobrang hyped na ako neto. Last second ng game, lamang ng dalawa ang TnT. Tumira si James Yap, sablay. Gets his own rebound. Passes it to Bowles. Misses. TALK ‘N TEXT WINS -pati yung commentator na-iannounce na nanalo na TnT. KASO HINDI PA. MAY FOULD NA TINAWAG KAY WILLIAMS DUN SA TIRA NI BOWLES. WTH. Ayun, pasok 2 free throws ni Bowles. Overtime. Nanalo B-Meg. Soooobrang sakit neto kasi di talaga dapat tinawag yung foul na yun. Pramis. Literal na game-changing call on what should’ve been a game decided by the players. Inisip ko nun na kung kelan ako nagbalik loob manuod, saka natalo. Sakit pre. Di pa nakatulong na after the game, tumawag pa yung tito ko ata or tita, na medyo nang-asar pa. Napaiyak si acoe.

1. 2015 FIBA Asia Championship Finals (Gilas Pilipinas vs China) – Masakit talaga to. Eto kasi yung game na parang epitome na ang gusto mo lang ay chance, pero maski man lang yun hindi man lang ibigay kahit ginawa mo na ang lahat. Coming to the game, nasa high din ang mga fans kasi natalo ng Gilas ang Iran sa grup nila, na tinalo ang Gilas nung last FIBA Asia nung 2013 sa finals. Hype din kasi ang kalaban pa is China, home crowd. Pero before the game pa lang, may “cooking” na nangyayari na. Late ang bus driver ng Gilas, di agad nabigyan ng ticket yung ibang staff, at nung magsho-shooting na ang Gilas, biglang pinalitan yung net. Then the game played. Yung mga tawag ng referee sobrang pabor sa China. Syempre biased ako pero ang daming judgement calls na favored sa China. Natapos ang game na lamang ng 11 ang China. Masakit at nakakagalit sya kasi what Gilas and its fans wanted was a chance. And Gilas earned that chance. Alam naman kasi na malakas ang China. And if Gilas were to lose, it would want to lose to China fair and square, walang kaso. Ang problema, you saw how Gilas players’ sacrificed their bodies and put in all what they can para manalo, tapos ganun ang gagawin. Di ka lang masasaktan as a fan nung team, pero pati yung sakit na naramdaman ng mga players emotionally after the game, ramdam mo. Sobrang sakit. Masakit talaga. Tanda ko pa kasi October to at malapit na birthday ko, sabi ko sa parents ko na kung kakain kami sa labas, wag sa Chinese resto. Hindi dahil racist ako, pero maaalala ko lang kasi yung nangyari sa game haha.

Ayun, sulit naman maging fan kahit ganyan. Marami rin heart winning moments.

So ano to? Makikisabay ka sa CyberCrime Law? Genen?

I open my twitter mentions and these pop up

(read from bottom up)

So I asked someone to screen cap what was going on since he isn't my friend on facebook

and wow just wow. lookie here

(for larger image)

wow there are really no words to describe how much rage there is in my blood. I dont even know how we can be blood related.

I just have so much faith in humanity when I know my friends are strong enough to tolerate such a thing. So much respect goes out to my friend JC. You the man.

My friends all hate him to the very core, I mean, look at that one tweet of Pat when she says "I marked it (kasi hindi 'yan tao at naiinsulto na ako kapag tinatawag syang 'ate') as spam and reported it as harassment"

"I reported its existence because the notion of that creature breathing the same air as me ultimately disgusts my person" - Pat Avila (notkorra)

just bare with me ok guys. I'm sorry if it's because of me that you met someone as horrible and disrespectful as IT is. I never really wanted it to be a part of this world but it somehow managed to.

love you.

paki delete siya as friend / unfollow / block / pray na makulong siya sa cybercrime law

salamat.
