HI! My name is Grizwold. I live in a tiny town that has the distinction of being the easternmost point in the continental USA. I am 60 yrs. old & have been gaming since atari 2600. I LOVE gaming & the different communities i have joined. My main interests in gaming are mostly mmorpgs. I am handicapped & my hands don't work so good so fps's are difficult for me. i'm slow on the keyboard. I hope to be a good member here & i look forward to interaction with other members!

I am a die hard STEELERS fan, I watch Oklahoma Sooners football as well. As you can tell by my signature I also follow the Buffalo Sabres and the Boston Celtics fan.
Well the Rose Bowl is about to start so I will be in and out during commercials. Oh by the way I was born during Superbowl 4 and my father Played a season for the Giants so football and I have a long love affair.
We have an all hands meeting the first Monday of every month on Team Speak at 9:00 P.M. Eastern and that would be a great way to get to know all the member this Monday. Hope to meet you there.

I just started to watch basketball last season and chose the Celtics as my team. Turned out to be a great year for my first. To answer your question further down yes there are some that play that style of game. Here is a link to where I had talked about my fathers in another thread.

Uhh, really whatever you think you'd like playing...though we could probably use some more healers. Jump on TS tonight, I'll send you an invite and we can level up together and get triple the experience points.

Before you do that, make sure you pick a PvE server and join Durotan. That is here we hide out.
