Aw, so cute. CX What was the site called? Was it the DV Sim?
Did she not have a symbol at that time or did you just decide on it later? 'Cause it would be awesome to hear how it happened in game.

I decided on it later - I didn't know what I wanted it to be at that point, although I knew it had to be something to represent "sea and sky" since that's the translation of her name.
And that site was a sister site of DV SIM - Beyond the Rainbow SIM (the owner is now a published author: Courtney Moulton - she writes young adult paranormal novels). I don't think I ever played her in game because she was so young, and the game died shortly after that (which is why I started C03).

I remember those sims. They were kind of hard to navigate, or maybe I'm thinking of something else. D:>
Anyway, happy birthday Kail!

No, you're thinking of those. They were difficult to navigate (I can't even find the actual RP boards anymore, just the info pages, MMB, and ranting board). It's probably one of the reasons they died - we had a problem getting new members, especially after Shadoh was banned (not Shadow/Dark from C03, who I love RPing with, even if he's a bit of a spaz).
Kail says thanks!

I remember stumbling upon a dead site called DV Sim. I just jumped right in and started posting as my present pony persona. I seriously had no clue what I was doing, but I thought it looked fun, so when I realized I wasn't going to get any replies I went and looked for something else. And found C03. ^-^
When was this first posted?

That's so cute that you found DV SIM after I left, Whis  Yay for finding C03! Kail was first posted in January of 2003 I think? And C03 started sometime that summer... |

Haha, I am slow apparently. But hey, at the tender age of 13 ... I'm guessing I was just about starting to get a grip of the Internet. Did you have a hard time launching C03? I'm guessing you didn't know Roxanne, Silverfall, Rose Rebellion etc. on beforehand?  |

Can't blame you for being young I don't think there even was an internet when I was thirteen. At least not an internet beyond AOL  I didn't know any of them. Courtney was there for the start, as was Rachel (both from BTRS). Spoosh played Mayor Pinkie Pie for a few weeks, and Firefeather joined for a brief moment at the beginning, but none of them stayed around long. I didn't even play with Sil until Kail ended up at his shop, trying to keep the evil indigo alive (and then he called her beautiful the next morning and my heart melted for that silly stallion). I think Rose was actually the first one I played with that I didn't already know from a past game (Coon! <3). It wasn't hard to launch, since there were no other RPs out there at the time (they had all just closed) and with the new line coming out everyone was excited to grab up their favorite character. Rainbows I miss C03 <3 |

Holy Rainbows, I just did the math, and with the way Kail's aging she'll be 515 years old before she reaches a normal pony's 100 years. She's currently 21 in-game, but she's not going to look 21 until she's about 120 years old  I may have to adjust her future plans a bit. She's gonna outlive Razz by about 400 years... That's a damn long time to be lonely. And her kids are going to live even longer. |

Yay for finding C03!
