Thaiger's History


This post is about when I first started out in Endless Online. It can also double as a guide for you beginners out there that are havin a hard time steppin up.

I first started playing EO in the month of July of 07. I just got out of "disney land" and I was sentenced to 1 year of community control and 2 years probation, the latter I'm still on today. Community control is sort of like house arrest and probation combined. Couldn't get out of the house (except to go to work), and I had to report to my officer once a week. So I had to find something to do at home or I'd end up back where I just came from. My cousin was playing Gaia Online, so I thought I'd try that. Unfortunately, it was laggy for me. It was also boring.

Did some searching around, and eventually found Endless Online at http://www.play-free-online-games.com/ and decided to try it. Small file, no lag, and easy interface is what kept me from turning elsewhere. It was pretty addicting, I gotta admit.

Well, like most of you at the beginning, I was a newbie. Not one to say "u" to another, I used a little negotiation, and eventually ended up with Dragon Armor, the mask, and a Dark Katana. Everything I found that could be resold, even for little profit, I picked up and resold. I played the game. Because I had a basic knowledge of business/economics, I made some chump change. I then used the money to buy newbie weps cheap. Afterwords, I went to the witch to sell them off for a little bit higher than the price I bought it for. The witches place, back then, was my hot spot for selling this stuff. If business was a little slow, I went to get ingredients for Death Gloves, which wasn't easy, but I took things one step at a time. First, the mummies. Then I went to the Wingos until I got atleast one Wingo Claw, after that I'd go back to the witch and try selling my items again.

It wasn't until I got to lvl 4 when I was first recruited into a guild, called the Golden Knights of Heaven (GKH). I was in Estaq when I was approached by the leader himself, Nacron. He asked me if I wanted to join his guild. Unlike most newbies that jump at the opportunity, I was a little bit skeptical (just didn't know what was going on xD). I ask him a series of questions, but eventually I joined with him. Soon after, he takes me to get all the paperdoll items, sort of a ritual that I myself continue to this day.

The only time I got money from them was when they did a scavenger hunt type event. I lost. But still the boss gave me 1k, which to me back then, was alot. With that plus the gold I got from EO hustlin (if you wanna call it that), I was able to buy my first Ultima. And for maybe two weeks after, that was my main hustle. Buying and selling Ultimas back then was very profitable, and I made alot of gold from just that. From then on, I had started movin up.

The Golden Knights of Heaven was a great guild, though small. We were social, active, and none of us ever cheated. But eventually we were torn apart. When one of the recruiters got on my bosses' account, and my boss got on his account, it started a conflict that would alter my path in EO forever (one hell of a story teller eh?). Two of my friends quit the guild and made their own, called Project X (PTX I think), but I stuck around for a little bit, to try and rebuild GKH back to its former glory. Didn't work, so eventually I left the guild to make my own...the Thaiger Nation Takeover.

The Thaiger Nation Takeover, or TVR, originally consisted of people from GKH. It was me, Dudo (the original), Shazzyzam, Emorocks, Psykoaticpup, Fullmetall, and others. Soon after, I recruited Frantik, Asevenxlover, and Itshenry (known today as Projectdead). We adopted the same principal GKH used to maintain their organization, and we prospered. We did events, were all active, never cheated, and we did alot of things together. Soon enough, we grew to over 80 members and we even debuted on the top 100 guilds list as the 56th highest ranking guild in Endless Online. My friends that were in PTX eventually split and made a new guild, known today as the Pink Mafia (PMA). We formed a bond, and did events together -- we were like one nation, which proved useful when we'd eventually start a war with URA (well, the other way around).

Using my communicational skills, we linked up with PMA and WSP, and we got the beef squashed and thrown out the window. Plus, three tightly connected guilds vs. one big mess was an easy win for us. I remembered that day clearly. Pmcdag was in the corner saying, "Is this a guild war with TVR and URA?" We were the underdog vs. the veteran, and the underdogs were on top. URA recently split into two different guilds... go figure.

Everything was going smooth, until that day. That day I lost my account. Now, I never went to those sites for speeding, never cheated in any way, and still it happened. Rumors are that one of my own hacked me, Emoxguitar (I have good memory!), but whoever did it, did it at the right time. I just bought a Scav bow, and I had just about everything a nerd could want in EO; the total of everything was over a mil. This made me quit EO, but only temporarily.

Soon afterwords, I started playing the test version. I made money by buying/ selling accounts. I joined a guild, and even tried to make my own. But it's not the same as the main version, and for obvious reasons. I left soon after.

When I came back to the main version, everything had changed. My members from TVR left to make their own. The members IN TVR quit playing EO, and I was back to the basics. I had alot of money from buying/selling accounts, and even a lvl 18 and 21 account to use for main (the lvl 21 account is from Dudo, one of my original TVR members, who quit because of the spamming incident. I have his account to this day, and have not changed the password). When I saw this, I knew I had to bring us all back together. To reunite us once again.

And out of the ashes... a new nation was born...the Fire Wind Nation.
