Look at what the ville has done for us!

I am not too sure how to phrase this, but ill do my best(such is always the case with me). I would put a simple "the ville rox!" but this calls for something more. I have been watching and thinking about all this a long time now, and I have been quite astonished with this place. Not only is the ville a game server, it is a forum, a think tank, a help center.

I have seen people come and go, not really realizing what goes on here. Look at all of us villuns, look at Powers and Rata, two brothers who play this game in their *OWN* free time, and yet they find the time in their busy lives to help the others who frequent the ville. Look at Ktulu and hoax, these two great people, who never would have known eachother otherwise, have been brought together by this wonderful place! Badabing both SR and JR are strengthening Parent-son bonds and sharing interests(that sounds a bit awkward, but ill leave it anyway), as well as Roof Cutter and killer roof cutter, and Albino Gibbon and son. Then there is RaTboy and ameanman, two schoolers who fight together. All of this is amazing. A brother and sister combo, Swift and Trigger Happy(that still suprizes me), and a husband and wife team, Cycodad and Cyco mom.
Old people and young people alike flock here, and for one breif moment each day, they play in harmony.

Also, this place is the most generous organization I have seen over the internet. People are constantly helping eachother, wether it be computer help, or personal problems. The sense of giving is amazing here.

Isn't that overwhelming? Never in my life would I have ever suspected that people could become so close over the internet, and yet, despite all my memories of being taught not to give out a name oer the internet, or tell people where u live, and to always watch your back, I have found that I have become attached to this place. Even though I am judging people by words appearing on a screen, transmitted by a machine, somehow, I feel connected. It chokes me up inside to be here, where the sense of unity is so strong. People from around the world play here, and *most* national barriers and politics are forgotten, and the common compassion for the fellow person kicks in(regardless of the massive slaughter that goes on in the game that this place represents).

That also amazes me, the fact that people can be friendly and even love eachother even though the attend an organization that provides a game that flashes gory explosions and horrendous violence before our eyes.(which I have grown quite partial too).

The ville is the very epitomy of teamwork. We are all a big team, wether we like it or not, we are. All of these things put together make me proud to be a villun.

Ok, well got that off my chest... Hope the relief will improve my playing...j/k

Im all emotional now becuz of all this.....damn hormones.......cant wait till im 21 and then BAM! Everything is easier

Thanks for your time folks, hope you found this semi enlightening.

Great post KK, in the short time you have been here you have completely figured out the magic this place holds. We may have our fun on the game servers but the life blood of The Ville exists here in the forums and the friendship we show each other. It has been my home for 10 months now and I can't imagine my life without it. With Hoax now in my life I believe I have felt every emotion life has to offer here at The Ville. This place is magic and the people who are a part of it rock! Rob should get the noble peace prize or something and then Frag got the genious idea of forming a brotherhood clan that does not compete but still houses some of the most skilled players this game has to offer.

See how special The Ville is, we are lucky enough to attract people as good as yourself KK, this does not happen by accident.... people are like water, we seek our own level.
