Maybe I'm old fashioned, but I think news about the creator of UO is UO related.

Best wishes to him and his new bride!

Lady British.

Hehe, I wonder why he missed implementing this concept in the beginning. :)

Anyway, May the Gods give them Happiness and us Beer!

Keep in mind that not everyone will agree with what someone posts here. Sure, we don't have to read it, but we do so that we can offer our opinion. There is nothing wrong with that at all, and the boards are full of it. What goes on with Richard Garriott does not change my life at all, and I do not hate him. I just don't care what happens with him. My response to this post is no different that other responses in other posts about anything else having to do with UO.
You are totally missing the point of "respect"
The announcement is that RG is getting married. If you don't care, the respectful response is to just not care, and go about your day. Saying "I don't care" is not respectful.
Also, until you actually volunteer to contribute to Stratics, you don't get to dictate content.

Is this man kin that we have to keep hearing about what happens with him? Good that Richard Garriott created this game, but so what? He's gone. Those who wish to follow and/or worship him have avenues other than Stratics to do so. I'm only interested in what's happening with this game.
Unified,

For many of us, yes, this man IS/WAS kin. He was a part of our in-game play. He was Lord British. We interacted with him, he interacted with us.

Others have addressed your remarks. I shan't beat a dead horse.

Respectfully,

AW

Wonder if his good looks helped close that deal.
Watch the vid. You'll see RG met his fiancee because she is an investor in the gaming industry. I'm thinking maybe the bank accounts may have had less priority than you seem to imagine.

*raises glass to the happy couple*

A few posts have been removed. The legitimacy of a thread is based on the discretion of that forum's moderators. If you disagree feel free to send the mod(s) a PM, Trolling the thread is not the proper avenue to take. Further problems may not be dealt with in such a nice manner as they were this time.

here is a pic of him with his fiance.

Richard Garriot and fiance
Anyone know if there is age difference between them? She looks a bit younger than him. Not that it matters, I'm just curious/nosey.

Hail Sosarians,

Umm.. your king has abandonned you because he refused to fight against the gold selling ring.

Hardly a king anymore.

A honored creator of a lasting tradition maybe, but not a king.

For Thee perhaps.

Lord British shall ever Rule Sosaria till His or His Heirs Return.

And Lord Richard is Forever Lord British.

For Me and for Many!

That's only when the woman in question isn't there for the discussion. And if she is, better be vewy, vewy careful. :stretcher:

I like the way my husband handles that *issue*. He says one must always remember the day of her birth but never the year.

He is a good man.

The true ethical question is that if a woman is willing to provide her age, or what she thinks of another woman's age... thats her prerogative.

I also had her around 45-50...

Oh and yes in that case, this woman is a public figure who gets picture taken with EX-lord Brittish. There is no good reason not to talk of her age, which is public knowledge.

I admit that if I followed Petra's rule to the letter I wouldn't have posted this lol... but flutter is here to protect me.

Wait no ! Don't leave me pwwhhhlllleeaaaassseee !

*ahem*
Just saying ... I'd have a shot IF I was interested ... :lol:

about books and covers ...
shouldn't be done even with PERFECT eyesight ... :scholar: *tsk tsk*

No worries I got yer back. The lines on her face and neck make her look older than she is, but mostly I saw the veins in her feet in that picture had thought for sure she was 50-ish.
