Dark0ne Posted June 2, 2004 Share Posted June 2, 2004 As some may have noticed, today, June 3rd, is the biggest day in the year - indeed, it is my birthday! The suprise for some however will be that the number says 18, and not 25 as expected. Today also marks the day when I can openly declare my true age, and release a few bits of "eye-candy" ;) Back in the old days of Morrowind Chronicles, Anubis, the Seer Council and sanity, web designing for me was but a hobby. I'd already been doing it for 2 years before MWC came along, so at the age of 16 when MWC begun, it wasn't too big a deal what age I was. However, as things past - Anubis left to move on to bigger things (namely setting up Krystal Solutions, the self-made company Anubis and I setup nigh on 2 years ago), things became apparent that my age should remain quiet in order to not put off potential business (how many national firms of solicitors do you know that would pay a 16 or 17 year old a considerable amount of money for a website, let alone trust them with certain information?). Simon, who is close to 2 years older than myself was able to be the front for the company, and I simply worked on a freelance basis. Through the years a few have had suspicions - Theta I know has had little pieces of puzzles thrown at her, but to her credit she remained largely quiet about it. Not many people like being told that I make more money than them in a year, not many can take that for a long period of time I worked in an office, while still going to college, and its always great with the ladies (well, most - some don't seem to like the idea that I work for my own company..strange). The fact that the majority were willing to accept my age simply shows that age will often mean little when one prove's his or her maturity. I feel I would fail to guess the majority of people's ages on these forums, since the majority conduct themselves in a manner which would have me to believe we're all as old as Theta (:P). I am proud to see that I have developed a community of avid Morrowind fans who conduct themselves in ways where age is not a boundary or a prejudice - but actions are. Since its out now, lets have some piccy's. Most of these were taken by my (ex-)girlfiend a few months back. http://mwsource.com/me/7.jpg http://mwsource.com/me/6.jpg http://mwsource.com/me/5.jpg http://mwsource.com/me/4.jpg Me in Belgium last summer My (ex-)girlfriend and I at my mother's 50th Now may the legal drinking begin!

AdamNeko Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 Welll, this is indeed a surprise. Happy birthday to you, Dark0ne. Sure surprises me that you, of all people, are almost 4 years younger than I. Oh well. May your 18th birthday bring great joy and much celebration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vandorssen Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 Very good... Happy birthday indeed. Making me of all people feel like a young pup when in reality I'm ancient in years compared to you. Some of us on this forum *never* lie. But really, happy birthday, and remember to buy all of us presents (as is the custom). ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malchik Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 Congratulations on making the second milestone in life! May you have many more of them. At tonight's pub quiz I will drink a bottle in your honour. (A bottle of wine that is.) PS Where should I send the bill? :lol: Anyhow, have a really good party and don't worry about the 'ex'. There are lots of good fish in the sea! (Shame none of 'em get anywhere near cmac's re-usable fishy sticks, ain't it?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
