SpawnPoint

Well I figured since I've got nothing better to post and dont really care to update people that I try to kill in game on my life, unless asked, I would post some other stuff. And this is all I've got, random stuff I scribble down when I'm tired, it works for me. So we shall see how this goes over... Probably like a lead balloon...

"A Man"

A man can only protect that which
he is compelled to protect.
If he lacks moral backing or the
courage to defend everything
he cares for, he does not have
the right to call himself a man.
It could be described as when
all that is withing the scope of
his reality is challenged by
an opposing force. For everything
should be built and reinforced
off of ones beliefs. If you dont
firmly stand by all the pieces
of your life, cast them out,
and start over. Your life is yours.
A man must both build a life set
in his values, and be willing to
defend every single one of them
without regret. Any regret in
someones life only leads to
self destruction. Be reaffirmed
in all of your actions and
remember to stand by your
decisions. It's the choices you
make in life, that make you.
Holding the rudder in any current
only means that the direction
faced is controlled, but not
traveled. It's the path traveled
that cannot be regretted, and
always defended.

I thought I should put one in that was more poetic as well, so here's something else to look at and wonder about, haha. Hopefully you guys still keep talking to me :D and leave me some comments, so I know what people think and that they didnt just oops read this. ok? ok....

"Diggin' for Wholes"
by AJ Hanscom

I started a hole.
A hole in an iron gate.
The guards poored out.
They cracked the walls and more spilled.
Each ran across her face.
Water on a leaf.
Same as the sparkles on her face.
I started a hole.
A pin prick through a sheet.
Light glinted through.
It splashed the wall and filled the room.
The color flooded my eyes.
A torrent too bright.
At least I could see where to go.
I started a whole.
Built from the bottom up.
The shape changes consistently.
And I'm adding one piece to it everyday.
None look alike.
But I'm satisfied.
I started to smile.

So I do some writing. Some random silly writing, just curious if anyone would be interested in hearing any of it. If you are you're going to at least leave a comment saying so.

So recently on my fave server of time, Evolution.nl (69.90.174.9:27015) , a few idiots decided they were going to play a little trick on an admin, and then laugh about it while they tear apart my server.

First both of them changed their names to mine. Turned on some crazy spinhax with aimbots and proceeded to go to town on the people I was desperately trying to protect. What a longer story short is they tried bragging then, telling me and everyone in the server they coulndn't be caught, their hax have "TOO MANY OPTIONS :P" So I followed through with my demos and made sure to highlight their IP's, banned them from the server, and we all enjoyed our evening talking trash about two idiots who are now successfully banned from Spawnpoint, we win again :D!!!!

Man, I love the anti-cheat team here, Next time you guys are ever in Iowa, I'M BUYIN!!!

    Upon a recent receiving of email, and not noticing all of my Spawnpoint emails go directly to my bulk folder :/, I realized I must blog... Blogging is something I would have preferred to be able to avoid my entire life. However, I love spawnpoint. And to continue as an admin, I must blog. Sad days...

    Since this is my first post it's going to stay general and not go too in depth. I've been playing on the spawnpoint servers since I first got counterstrike ages ago and never seemed to leave them. The users seem more friendly and the servers are typically of a higher quality. I admin the Evolution.nl dwp off server and get called the biggest pub nub by my friends. Every time I log in the server has six or more people who welcome me. That's just one great thing about gaming here. I dont even game that often, just when I get off work or dont have much to do during the day.

    The higher ups here are fantastic as well. They've all got lives outside of this little game and yet they take the time to work hard to make it a quality experience for everyone by staying up late, reviewing demos, and hopping into servers to help with hackers and I've not heard them complain, much... Haha. I dont know many of the bigger admins personally, but I gotta give props to OPREP, Raven, and especially Sapphire ;D. Sapphire was the one who got me to become an admin and OPREP was the man who made that happen. Raven was frequently in the vent and would help me with stuff I didnt know how to do yet as a new admin.

    This first post is a thank you to spawnpoint, for being a great community and I hope to stay with you guys for a long time.
