Wow.. going on 3 plus years now.. Wee
..It has really been a wonderful 3 years too. I sure have learned a lot here, especially from the friends I've met. It's amazing that I was.. in middle school when I first joined? I think that's amazing, really. Time passes way too fast. When Argentine first told me about SeeD, I never thought that him making me join would be something I really got into for all of my high school life, hehe. I've weally enjoyed it...
Recap? You don't have to read anything, but you're welcome to! Mostly just for my own personal use later on (I *love* blogs!). Well..
Teh Really Old Past..
I was introduced to SeeD (by Argentine) in October 2002, but I never registered until many months later, in May. I'll never know why.. but anywho. My first friend, besides Argentine, was Carol (Amazonqueen) and we did a whole lot together, and it was quite fun when we both achieved modship at that time.. we screamed our heads off I had met Spikeout who introduced me to Zolly and Base at some random get-together (remember those? XD). I thought we were helping Base get 84 mining or something.. but it was fun. Of course in the following months I went along to meet Cspace, Stuffy, OM (Maxi.. bah, Original Max!), Sepharimon, Goto, Phieta, Hyper, Draggy, Crescens, Mike (Kaiser), Ratty, Darkie, Bigbro, Alpha, Kowboy, Echi, Superchao, Traver, Wibble, Saj, Silver, Sk8boarder (Capozide now), Ryl, Koko, Bmatt, Yeah Man, Red Falco, Serpentfight, Mase, Crown, Rabk, Baxter, Garunda Te, Serena, Dansevinsky, Dammy wells, Obiwan, Reikin, Styledragon, Muler, Glammeress, Kowboy, Jarik C Bol, Vietpryde, Grand One, Killerconvic.. gah, there's 100s more Geez
I won't go into huge detail.. after I got into SeeD, a few months of uber happiness later it seemed that a conflict would always erupt every day, and it seemed like things would never end, lol. Quite a time of frustration from all of the leaders and members who were trying their best to end the constant bickering. During this time I got to become a Super Moderator and help out with things a little more, including something we called "Head of Conflict Resolution", lol. I did the best I could with the nameless help and guidance of the other leaders and learned a whole lot about people.. definitely a leadership class I couldn't have taken anywhere else. I made a whole bunch more friends while sort of becoming a psychologist in a way. I grew a whole lot o_O
During that summer the conflicts were still being annoyances, but something else also popped up. 'The Rebelz', if anyone remembers, was quite a time of what I believed to be one of conspiracy. Everyone seemed out to get each other, and with the presence of Gunblade in the midst, well.. no one liked the secrecy very much. But IMO it was for the better, since Gunblade got a whole lot accomplished, and it honestly surprised me how well it worked. But anywho, it seems as if 'factions' of people were forming, each that were against each other, along with a clan a former member had created called TR. In short, it was created to bring a group of people that hated SeeD (some for no apparent reason, lol) together for a war. Of course, the entire thing was a bit..err, well, silly. We would not accept war, which was a strategy in itself: TR would fall apart; 'twas their goal after all. We were able to get a SeeD member infiltrated into the TR clan, who was soon to become one of the Head Admins, and later, the Head of the entire clan, which of course, was a huge advantage. Although, we did not do *anything* destructive, and the ending result was having this Admin shut down TR with full respect when it fell and seemed to be needing rest.
Don't get me wrong, this time wasn't as horrible as I'm making it out to be, hehe. Although there was a lot of frustration, there was also a whole lot of fun. More events were schedueled during this time than any other time that SeeD experienced. Events were schedueled non-stop, and of course I tried to be there for each one of them, and I have pictures to prove it! Well, I'll have to count how many total events I have pictures for and tell everyone.. Because I have enough to fill a giant room.. o_O;
Up-To-Date!
Although we had some minor conflicts after that, everything started to just..clear up. The atmosphere of SeeD was starting to improve dramatically over the fall of 2004.. and nothing was stopping it. SeeD started its new goal: expanding into other games! I should label 2005-2006 as the year of repair and growth.. Because like our leader Cspace has said, "Repair the roof while the sun is shining" and we sure have ^_^ Tornadoes can't even get through now! With our new portal forums, our page rank skyrocketed (you should really check it out o.o;;) and our member count has done just as much. Although some of you might say that member count down there means nothing much ("Blah! they're all inactive.. delete!"), but it really shows how much we've grown/are growing. I mean, look at it now. I looked at it two days ago.. 9000. What is it two days later? Around 9200. That 10k will be reaching us in no-time, lol. I think that's cwazy awesome XD Our expansion into games has been a little slow, but that's really expected.. this is a hard thing to push off and make it go..and keep going. But I'll name one that has been, imo, completely successful: The new Guild Wars faction. It is well established, and a whole lot of SeeDs play it. I just hope it keeps going ^_^; Our runescape faction is also still active.. I play runescape still, and I still see older SeeDs play the game, along with *many* newer members.
Well, yeah. *stops now*
____________________________________________________
Inactivity? o.o;
Anyways! This year was quite an experience. Although I wasn't as active in SeeD as I was in the past few years, I still try my best to be on every day. I have concentrated a whole lot on my high school studies, and I'm quite proud of myself, because I did do the best I have ever done. I achieved my goal of being in the Honors Society, and a few Clubs that I had also made my goal to get into. Next year is my Senior year, which is exciting and scary at the same time.. I've picked out Clemson as my college, and with the SAT I took this past weekend, I'm hoping I get the scores to get accepted there.
I've also gotten into a serious relationship with someone I really love a whole lot, which I hope to continue for as long as forever, which is also another reason I've been a bit inactive with posts n' such. Also, I've learned the importance of friendships, and having a few select *true* friends - ones that would be there through anything..
_____________________________________________________
But this all is way too serious!
I might as well go through a 'few' pictures to bring back memories and show the newer members what us crazy old folks did way back in the olden' days You know me as a picture-guru..
Does anyone remember our fire pyros? Me, Spike, Falco, and Sk8 (Cap). Woo!
Random PKing trips.. Was one of my first trips into the wild, actually
Remember Draggy's Dress Parties? Well, we all chose one character to dress as.. I of course, am always a monk, so.. But can you tell the difference between Draggy and the King?
Go EBK! You still are my favorite garden.. XD
Of course, runescape had to have a game of hide and seek...but hiding and seeking in a graveyard..? O_o
Oh noez, Cspace kills Phieta :o I think this is where I got my gladiator medal, but I'm not sure..
We gathered a mob of SeeDs and terrorized Karajma.
Here we're getting ready for a fireart contest, and we had to separate into teams. I still remember that event very clearly, hehe.
EBK always ruled! Mwuaha
Start of the RS beta.. anyone remember our first beta trip? o.o; I remember making lots of pizzas..
I love the smell of insane.
Hehe, YM's dragon assault.. he did very well, too
This event was one of the most fun. It was a wildy capture the flag.. I don't remember how it worked (Viet's event recipe, lol), but it was a whole lot of fun.
Our community service job: protect the miners. Woot Anti-RPK!
The biggest event in SeeD history: Glam's and Final's wedding. 'Twas insane.. I think we had almost every active runescapian there, hehe. Great event ^_^
SeeD had to own the wilderness
Yet another dress up party.. we were judged in all sorts of categories, including prettiest, weirdest, ugliest, unique..est, and etc.
Soon after this, I finally finished legends.. Took forever! o.o;;
Dark Alex's and Serena's Wedding. 'Twas fun.. first time I visited the altar things.. (never did runecrafting XD)
Random. Who knew boats were explorable?
A lot of our events took place in fally bar. Prolly because we liked pushing each other off the balcony so much...
For New Years, we had to get together and annoy pedestrians. We have to celebrate our insane heritage.
One mini-war we had, although I don't think SeeD was directly involved, although a lot of us volunteered, I believe, to help Superbuu out. Later on during this I was kidnapped and taken prisoner, 'twas sort of funny..
Of course we have to chase Star sometime. Why? It's fun to chase Star. (tag.. )
Our first SeeD KQ adventure! We did quite well, but no chain..
Train. You always have to have a train sometime. Specially to make thousands of people follow you and then disappear weally fast..hehe.
We actually had an official SeeD meeting here. 'Twas informative, weally.. and we got to eat blue plates!
Told ya'. Insane
One of the last giganto events we had.. 'twas a fun get-together, and we had fun with the emoticons n' such. Kewl!
and of course.. now a lot have moved on into GW. I hope to have more events now that we're in factions. 'Twas a lot of fun getting to meet everyone in OoA!
_______________________________________________________
So yes.. I have about 300 more pictures, but I don't think the internet would like me if I uploaded them all Two other things happened not weally relating to SeeD, but it's my capsule!
Firstly, in January, Jagex actually appointed me to a mod status..thing. Surprised me a whole lot. I've learned a lot from this.. mostly to keep your mouth shut around people. =$
Also, I completed a seemingly impossible goal of achieving full dragon. With Clock Sabre, we barrowed two whole months for about 46 Mil to buy two dragon chains, which equaled full dragon. Took awhile, but it was worth it..hehe.
_______________________________________________________
How to end my capsule?
Uh...
Thanks SeeD for another wonderful year.. I hope to still be here 'til the end of my senior year.. I'll be graduating! XD! But yeah..
Bai!

I love your capsule, Star! I forgot about some things but seeing all those pictures makes me remember every single event I was at!
I can still remember all the people as well from what they wore which is amazing! And I can still see my newbish f2p self and my crazy p2p self! We were down in that Slayer Cave since we all decided to hunt down Final.
You've been awesome Star! Stay that way, and stay with us.

wow, I loved that! lots of good memories
lol, that pic with us all drinking from kegs was when you all randomly came into the slayer cave while I was training...and forced me to get drunk and wear a pink cape.
and the pic of the first KQ trip...hehe, if I remember correctly, we actually didn't do too well. I'm pretty sure we all died...levels a little low and only 5 of us wasn't the best Idea
I'll be looking forward to seeing this capsule again next year

...OM (Maxi.. bah, Original Max!)...
It was always meant to be Maxi >_<. Jagex only had a 12 digit limit on names!
This is a great capsule, very organised. And don't worry about the inactivity at all, happens to all of us, no reason not for you to do well for yourself .
Here's to the last load of years, and hopefully to more along the way.
