Posted October 23, 2017 (edited) Hi Firestorm! Its been a long time. I came back here to the forums just to say hi. A lot of you probably don't know who I am but I used to be Executive GM here and I was a GM for about 2 years. So I'll put a few questons and a few answers here. "Why are you here Icemetal?" Well to be honest, I never said goodbye when I resigned about 1 year and a half ago. It wasn't an easy decision for me because Firestorm used to be a place where I can help out and I had lots of fun here, both as a player and a GM. So I decided to come to the forums today and put a post here to greet everyone. "Are you coming back?" No... more like, not any time soon. Trust me, I have been asked to come back like a million times by Inveric but sometimes you realize you have other important things to attend to and I can't give time to Firestorm because of it. I do miss some things and people here. "What happend? Why did you resign exactly?" Well guys... being a GM for 2 years straight was very tiring. There were times where all I had was problems and never any good news. I really tried to take breaks and try to get back at it but it got to be too much. Apart from that, I also started looking for what I wanted to do for my future. I moved to the US to only find out my future as a musician (singer) was very expensive and I couldn't afford it amd it was a very dissapointing situation for me. I moved back to my country (Dominican Republic) and went back to study in my old university where I first started years ago with dreams of becoming a Doctor. However, I did not go back to studying Medicine and instead opted for a new recently added degree of Biotechnology. I have been studying Biotechnology for a year and a half now and I completely love it! "Who do you miss from Firestorm?" Oh man, lots of people (Even if some I still speak with). To mention a few (I won't mention everyone, so don't be pissed): From GM side: Inveric, Legnax, Ooutah, Bax, Velanor, Kothego, Calamitatum, Latra, Ritsuka and a lot more. From Player side: Noballs, Miochan, Moogle, Sindorai, Clapton, Imbavirus, Cogburn and a lot more. Anyways, I really enjoy seeing that apperantly the server is still moving forward and that it's still as lively as ever. Thank you for taking the time to read this and I wish you all an amazing day. -Icemetal Edited October 23, 2017 by Icemetal 3 people like this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted October 25, 2017 Hi Icemetal, I remember you. Back from the old pandashan days. I hope you are doing fine. I do not know if you remember me, but I have seen you several times on the Dev PTR back when I was a developer. My dev name was also Sam. If I remember right you were testing the legendary cloak questline. Ain't that right? 1 person likes this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I sincerely hope you continue you journey in your studies and become successful in life, and I'm disappointed to see the United States didn't offer you the career you wanted to pursue.

I started a month ago on legion. Life was urban and stressful since, so I've decided to play and stay home for awhile, so I looked for the old gang. I hope it will not happen again to your country. I'm glad you are happy and doing what you love. Are you thinking of coming back for small talks in game? Stay safe! Edited January 1, 2018 by Edgie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
