Your story
 
Hello graalians just wondering what your stories are? how did you start playing graal what cool things have you done in graal? my story i was scrolling through the app store for multiplayer games with no luck and after about 10 mins of searching i found graal era it seemed interesting so i tried it after getting the game it confused the **** out of me so i quit. And i noticed there was also a graal classic so i tried it and it seemed more noob friendly so i stayed. BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA months later:i didnt really find a guild that i really liked so i joined a noob helping guild i stayed for a bit and me and a fellow member decided to make a guild it was named Anonymous we recruited some people (we were both still noobs) and made a little family no tower taking just talking. LATER: being still a noob i was stupid and fell for a vip scam and lost my account and he disbanded my guild, admins did nothing to help even though i had proof of who did it (looking at you ellybelly) so my friend ( the guy from the noob helping guild) made a new guild and people slowly quit graal including me. so classic bored me so i joined era.... TOO MUCH WRITING

LONG STORY SHORT:made guild got hacked left classic joined era quit graal found graal on android and played again and exuse my bad grammar i was writing in a hurry.

I started playing Graal classic early 2012. I used to play all the games from the Zenonia series, but completed them all got bored etc etc, and googled best iPhone RPGs and Graal popped up frequently as a choice. Played it for about a week then decided to buy the character slot and guild house IAP.

Eventually got bored of Graal in about June 2012, so decided to quit. Since I've come back I've been more interested in Graal than ever before. Unfortunately nothing exciting to say as such, although I am now leader of probably the best farming guild in the game, afterall how many people can say some members in their guild have farms worth 500k+ haha :).

When Game Center came out for iOS in 2010, some random person friended me. One of his listed games was Classic. Out of curiosity, I downloaded it, still having no idea what it was. I spent about half an hour in the bar I spawned from, having no clue how to get out, nor knowing I was even playing an online multiplayer game.

Strap 05-10-2013 12:44 AM

Friend at school showed me the game, i started. check my french

In 2009, was just bored out of my mind was trying to find a good app on the app store to play during all my classes freshman year in high school. When I did see it I thought it was cool and simple.

Mickey H 05-10-2013 01:54 AM

In July 2010 I was scrolling through the genius recommendations in the AppStore and saw classic, so I decided to download it. I played for about a year and a half consistently, then I started to play classic every few weeks, until I quit. Then about the end of July 2012 I started to play again. I have been playing again since then

Tyler 05-10-2013 02:04 AM

I was looking for multiplayer iOS games as well and stumbled across Graal Classic. I've been playing it for a little over 3 years.

Zoologist 05-10-2013 02:48 AM

I was just browsing the app store I guess. I had it downloaded for a few months before I actualy started to play in something like March 2010, because my family hadn't had wifi and I somehow didn't know how to delete apps.

Ryan 05-10-2013 07:55 AM

In 2010 i got my first iPod touch. Before that all my friends irl were playing Graal. When I got my ipod Graal classic was the first game I got and since then i've enjoyed it so much. At first I didn't play it as much but around the start of 2011 I joined The Society of Shadows and towered with them from 1200 hours till when they ended. By then I had loved Pking. I remembered that I got about 20k pks in under 1000 hours (which back then was impressive). In 2012 i got over 40k pks with my personal best being 7500+ in a week. Early in 2012 I joined Cruxis Evolution from 4k to 10k. After CxE retired I became less active and now I am here.

i think aug was when first downloaded graal. Same story as yours.
I started a player was helping me for you know honor points. Sadly i had the free app so i couldnt honor him.
I joined a guild named I forgot the name. but i joined another guild named Graal soon after. Leader was Cookie the one that bought rebellious 1k hat.
We became good friends and we made a guild named Graalians. When era came out most of the members started to play era. To me era was boring at the time.
Around I want to say novmeber i joined Grapes a ally to elly's old guild.
Got in without trying made friends with badger and he asked if i could join. Elly disband his guild. Aikan which was a really good friend of mine asked me if i wanted to join cruxis.
I gladly said yes. She tagged me to Aqu and I enjoyed it ever since. Did have drama first week, was the first place i hated someone as well aka Fireen since he was a cocky poop head but he is decent now.

Intrestinf story

Skill 05-10-2013 03:14 PM

Forgot how I found it, was either through browsing the app store or from another Eurocenter game like bomber online or something, I know I joined in Dec 2009.

Anyways, started back when there was nothing to do but pk and chat. Only played like an hour or two a day because back then it was just a gimmick really. It was a blast though, the content was "player generated" meaning that we would make our own clans and "clan bases" out of random areas and try to control them. There was constantly added secret areas and cool stuff. Forgot if the fan was added right away or if it was added later, but back then the people who could enter it were considered gods/pros, and highly respected. Nowdays it's just infested by noobs and pkers.


Then later on guilds and forts got added(feb 2010), and I made shrub and we would constantly dominate every night. I was kind of a tryhard with forts, I got angry when we lost them and wasn't very nice when people slacked. For whatever reason, people didn't seem to mind, even the casual players.

Then in april 2010, the first hat shop came out-Nafets River hat shop. They were moderately expensive(2-4k I think), but people didn't mind. Players loved the hats, and asked for more and more.

Then there was a time where 99% of updates were hats, and the prices slowly creeped up over time. and it got to the point where people would protest both the lack of non hat updates, and protest the hat prices, which would often lead to random jailings. Btw, back then they jailed people instead of bans, and it was The place to be.For a while you could talk in jail, so it was a sociable experience. Later on they removed the ability to talk because it made it less undesirable. Then ultimately they removed jail completely because people would ASK to go there, and try to get themselves sent there.


Then Stefan made a possibly unintentional nerf to farming; By changing the distance which scripts and npcs can load in single inside levels like houses and the fan/zone, players could not take advantage of the "farming with more players=more gralats" as effectively since they needed to be in sight range to be helping, people used to afk in the water of the fan to help improve the farming of people there, you could easily make 20k-30k in an hour, now you're lucky to make 2 or 3k in that same time.

The first year Graal was extremely fun, but then after that I slowly got more and more bored of it to the point where I can barely make myself log in nowadays, just waiting for a fun update. I'm hoping Delteria will be a blast to me-Graal Classic was one of those games that I just got absorbed into and some of the best experiences I've had with online gaming.

also, were any of you around to witness this?

It was priceless, without a doubt the funniest exploit in the game I have ever done.

Sicx 05-10-2013 03:40 PM

I typed in mmorpg and this game was like 50th

rickclops 05-10-2013 03:48 PM

One of my friends told me to try out graal when it looked exactly like zelda a link to the past. I couldn't get it to work the first time, tried again a month later and got in. At first almost no one pk'd. If someone tried everyone would kill them and then there'd be no more fighting. You would get warped somewhere far away and lose your 4th heart and any items you had, so people really did not want to die. It also took a long time to get back across the map.

I met a few pkers and they seemed to be much better at fighting than all the peaceful people. After I was randomly attacked (by MoD members) because they thought I pk'd someone, I got annoyed and decided to make a group for pkers. That was the start of baddies, it was a huge guild with several hundred members, and once a week we'd ask everyone for money or they'd be pk'd and lose all their money. It was fun. I quit graal for a few months and when I came back, most people were kicked out of my guild and the new leaders had changed it into an elite spar guild. After they took away any penalty for dying in graal, there wasn't a point to going back to a pk guild for me so I didn't bother.

Xenthic 05-10-2013 06:01 PM

When I first saw the app I didn't download it, but then about 3 weeks later I was still looking for a multiplayer game and eventually decided to download.

And the story well I can't be bothered :D

-Albus 05-10-2013 06:16 PM

It was 2001 and the internet was still kinda young. I remember hearing from a friend in school about this awesome game that is a lot like Zelda but online, so I remember downloading Graal Online and checking out some servers.

When I completed all the quests and made a few friends, we all agreed that PKing was bad and we wanted to put an end to PKing in Graal City. I wrote up this awesome attack plan while in school and we were going to attack level14 (the area outside Burger Refuge) from 3 different angles. It turned into us PKing people for maybe 10 minutes then we gave up.

After a while, I made my own guild called ArchAngels. Had a lot of fun and made a lot of good friends. Allied with the old Classic guild called US and since you couldn't ally in game like you can now, we had a guild tag we shared called Aegis. We both declared war on Ventrue Vampires and we had several good battles at Voluran's Mausoleum. The most memorable one was that one that went on for 2 days. We won the battle because eventually everyone from their guild logged off.

After a lot of fun with my guild and couple staff positions on Classic and one on Maloria, I kind of quit Graal off and on for a few years. When I saw the game come to the appstore I actually went out and bought an iPhone for it. Since the iPhone version, I've met a few really cool people and have had some good times here as well, but nothing as memorable as when I was a noob. Those are always the best times of any game!

Vendetta 05-10-2013 06:28 PM

Was around 2008 and I saw a video on a website of zelda online, checked it out, played some servers and it pretty awesome but I got bored quickly and stopped playing games couple of months later. January 2010 I think it was and I was looking for a cool multilayer game on my ipod touch, found graal again, started playing pc graal again.

Scaal 05-10-2013 11:15 PM

Found it in the app store in 2009, and met some random people in a guild, and one of those random people ended up getting hired on the graphics team. Then he got me a job as a GP in June 2011 (I didn't actually ask, he just told me one day, that i was hired.)
Almost 2 years later and i still work as a GP, and almost all of my friends quit/got fired.

In 2011, June when it was close to my birthday. My ESL friend recommended me a game. He is quite a good gamer I guess.. Over the vacation, while I am going to florida I have started Graal without identifying it. In that period of time, only vips can identify themselves. I deleted the app and re-download it in december. Obviously over the summer of 2012 I had to quit graal, because I was in county camp. They won't allow any phones in the camp. I might go to county camp again, it's pretty fun. We do lots of activities and hang out with new friends. It's better than Graal :9

Nabu Lapse 05-11-2013 02:41 AM

In 2009 I got myself a swag 2nd gen iPod for Christmas and that's when it all started. In January 2010 I was searching online on the App Store because online games had always interested me. I came across Classic and downloaded it because it looks interesting. I got really into it and even my little brother played it to. One unlucky day my brother got pmed "do you masturbate"... My little brother having no idea what that meant went and asked my mom what it meant and she made me and my brother delete the game. I missed it so about a year or two later I went and downloaded era and it was a whole new thing for me. So yah that's about it, but I hardly ever play era anymore because it's boring so I have my hopes up for delteria.

MLB13 05-11-2013 03:36 AM

In like May of 2010 I was searching for mmo's n such and I found Classic. I started playing and got so hooked, it was cray. Then in November 2010 I realized my iPad had a defect and I had to get a new one. Since there wasn't VIP/identification back then, I lost my account. I emailed staff about getting a transfer but I never got a response :( my account doesn't even show up in the search anymore. So I thought about making a new account, but I didn't wanna start all over again. Eventually, April 2012 came around and I was really bored a few days after my birthday so I got it again and got hooked again lol. And here I am :0 hollaaaa

that1guy666 05-11-2013 06:34 AM

I heard about graalonline classic from my sister, she said she did not like it all and everyone was mean, so naturally I had to see for myself. She was actually right about the 'mean' thing, not even 5 minutes into the game I was cursed out for being a noob. Nevertheless, I continued to play because I had gotten into towering, from defending castle for 24 hrs straight for Venus Gospel and learning how towering works (aka getting kicked for being offline -_-) and later meeting some cool players in Voyage. Then after 1k mostly all my friends quit; I was going to do the same till I joined the initiative and started making graphics, mainly until I was hired as GP. I think I've already mentioned how I became pharaoh so I will just say thanks again to Lykke for her awesome hat hehe. :)

KuyaGabeGraal 05-11-2013 11:50 AM

My long story short
 
Me and my friend Matt Played graal Late 2009, we were still playing another eurocenter game called "dinosmash" and someone on the chatroom told us that bomber (stefan in graal) released a game called graal. I got hooked since then, enjoyed sparring then we had options to create guilds so we made a guild called PiNoY right away. Took towers for a few times then stopped to continue sparring to 10k wins then 20k wins. I moved to another country so I had to stop sparring because Im too slow to spar properly so I decided to do towers, which is to 1000 hours and succeeded. Then I tried joining guild spar tournaments to try winning first place, but failed my first two teams I joined so after that I had nothing else to do in graal so I quit for half a year only to come back And wanted to join every gst to see if me and my own team can make it to 1st place. Now to continue my story, i am planning to bring my guild to 10000 hours as another goal to do while Im here.

My legacy began began in 2011, when a friend suggested it to me. I immediately loved the simplicity of it all, and the way you could customize your character with shield codes was so new to me. I really liked pk'ing at the old MoD tower, it was all I did during the short duration that I was interested in Graal Classic. I didn't have the character customization pack at the time, so eventually I began to get bored. The ability to customize one's character is a huge beneficial factor to me, and the fact that I did not have it meant that I would not be sticking around for long. Before my departure, my attire usually consisted of romancekills wings, (those big grey and red wings) which I thought looked awesome at the time, and that vampire looking head on page 1.

Soon after. I obtained an iTunes card and Graal Classic came to mind immediately. So of course, I bought the expansion pack along with some gralats. I was back and more intrigued than ever. I spent hours customizing my character, trying to find the "perfect" look. I soon lost interest in the game once again, when I ran out of gralats to buy hats. Approximately 5 days after I had bought the customization pack. I then moved on to a variety of other app store and PC games.

I came back 4 months later. The app had gathered plenty of dust while I was preoccupied. I was disappointed, still at the fact that I could not afford anything. But after a bit of exploring, I finally ventured into the dark caves of Deadwood. It was here that I discovered my true lust for the game; and that was baddie killing. At first, I killed the bats inside the cave to obtain gralats, but I soon discovered that it would also count as baddie kills too. This method was faster than any other, so, I strived to obtain 100,000 baddie kills thinking it would make me "pro". I did end up getting 100k, and I was happy with my achievement. Even though they're just mere numbers, they actually represent something to me. :)

Blueh 05-12-2013 03:18 AM

I've been here for a long time. I've seen a lot of people come and go. I've made many friends, countless enemies, and progress over the time here. I don't know what progress means, really. It can mean anything from working backwards, or working forwards. I like to look at it as working forwards. After all, all of this time here couldn't have been spent for nothing?

I remember a slow day, a new iPod and a bored little brat sifting through the many apps on the AppStore. He had gotten his iPod as a gift from his aunties that year. Everyone knew they favored him the most out of the family. More than his other cousins. It was a secret they had kept for all these years up until now. The first time he saw the Zelda-looking app he pondered on downloading it. The game only had three stars, and he was a brat after all. Only wanting the best of things. Eventually something led him to download it. Perhaps it was the nostalgia, or the fact that it had a free version. Or perhaps it was something else?

I remember a blue haired player, similar to many, spawning on the shining streets of a bustling, small town. Lost and confused. He would learn how to use his sword that day. How to shoot arrows, and to throw bombs. He wasn't the brightest of all the players. In fact, I remember him avoiding the tall grass in fear a Pokemon-like creature would spring out on him. Nevertheless, he would learn a lot as he began his journey to getting better. He would meet good friends who would teach him about codes, about gralats, and about clans. There were no guilds at the time. So he would join a small clan known as the Red Bandits. Not known to too many, not like the Hollows or GoD clan who would lash out at one another daily in Swamptown. Despite this, he would eventually join other clans and meet new friends. Some friends he still continues to know today.

I remember the first guilds. Many clans died out that day. With not enough space to hold all their members, most of the well known clans would simply fade out. The blue haired player changed his look along the way, to a much more different look. A head with white hair and a blue bandana. Certainly it wasn't the greatest looking head. Nor did it resemble the player in any way at all. But he loved that head. You can ask him why, but he doesn't know too much himself.

I remember Junior Admins. These tricky fellows weren't who you thought they were to be. Rather, bratty children trying to assume the role of staff by leading others into false belief. They would assist others into glitching off map and using their false title to justify it. Even the player had fallen for this trick, he was arrogant after all. They never did catch him once off map. Only a time where he would attempt to get off map and he would spend some time in jail. Where basically, he turned it into a nightclub room with all the other inmates. Nowadays jails are gone. Warning rooms are put in place and so was a Graal Police Department building in MoD town. Oh! Sorry, I appear to be getting ahead of myself. Anyways, this 'Junior Admin' soon became one of the player's greatest friends at that time. He eventually joined Equinox, which at the time was the #1 tower guild on Graal. It only had 300 hours. Dried dung can only be stacked so high now in this world.

I remember first joining Zanza. How most of his friends were happy to see him join. How he met so many new people that day. Yes, I believe it was June 7th 2010. The first day he had gotten out of school for summer break. And what a memorable summer it was. One of the best ones he had ever had. Despite the current leader at the time, filling in for Az, Elly and Nick he was happy with all of the people there. She would eventually leave to run her own guild and to drag her boyfriend with her. Not a single one of us seemed to care. She had given up on us like a poor leader would have. Much happier to blame us for the problems created than to help fix them. Today I use her as a model of how not to run the guild. Never would he let himself sink to that level.

I remember the guild wars. A sad day that was. To see your friends run off from you. To see the effects of power and position get to their heads. He vowed never to try to become a staff member. Not to become a monster like his friends have. Regret was a very close friend of the player's. He even helped support the player get in Zanza in the first place. They were not only just like a guild family, but like best friends and brothers. The two would always joke and have their fun together. And the player was thrilled and excited the day he became staff. Not as thrilled as he was, but for a different reason. He soon let his pride overcome him. Going around, spreading false rumors and lies to his friends. Many caught on to what he was doing. Then the time came where he would openly attack us and lash out. The battle was held at Snow Town, but things couldn't of gotten any more heated up. It was a shock for both guilds. Brother fought against brother in a brutal battle over the hard ice. Long and hard was this dance held over the dim candle light. For what minutes seemed like days lasted as both combatants fought with fierce strength against one another. With a fatal blow to the enemy flag, we won the war. But had lost many friends.

I remember Revolution, Nexus, Club Crypt. Being the first guests of honor in the VIP room of Revolution meant being Azrael's guinea pigs. By then the player was already used to being an aristocrat. As he had been most of his life. The VIP room was then later on used for when guilds had reached 1k hours. Back when 1k hours was an accomplishment. Eventually staff stopped hosting 1k parties. I suppose that signaled the end of the Golden Age of tower taking. Azrael would eventually stop playing on iClassic too. Leaving his legacy behind to a frog, and a brat in a blue bandana. Surprisingly they've held out for all this time, even after the player left for a month during Lent season. He made sure they would stand strong, and he still would try his hardest to make his friends happy in anyways he could. It's all he cares about on this game, after all.

This time on here has gone by so quickly. What's been years seems like just yesterday. Neither of us can be sure what the future may hold. Looking back makes us wonder whether we've done the right thing or not. What if I've made the wrong choices? Talked to the wrong people? Supported the wrong causes? I probably shouldn't ponder too much on the past... Now that I've told you my story. Now that I've told you everything. Tomorrow's a new story, and I've yet to begin that chapter.

They would assist others into glitching off map and using their false title to justify it. Even the player had fallen for this trick, he was arrogant after all. They never did catch him once off map. Only a time where he would attempt to get off map and he would spend some time in jail. Where basically, he turned it into a nightclub room with all the other inmates. Nowadays jails are gone. Warning rooms are put in place and so was a Graal Police Department building in MoD town. Oh! Sorry, I appear to be getting ahead of myself. Anyways, this 'Junior Admin' soon became one of the player's greatest friends at that time. He eventually joined Equinox, which at the time was the #1 tower guild on Graal. It only had 300 hours. Dried dung can only be stacked so high now in this world.

I remember first joining Zanza. How most of his friends were happy to see him join. How he met so many new people that day. Yes, I believe it was June 7th 2010. The first day he had gotten out of school for summer break. And what a memorable summer it was. One of the best ones he had ever had. Despite the current leader at the time, filling in for Az, Elly and Nick he was happy with all of the people there. She would eventually leave to run her own guild and to drag her boyfriend with her. Not a single one of us seemed to care. She had given up on us like a poor leader would have. Much happier to blame us for the problems created than to help fix them. Today I use her as a model of how not to run the guild. Never would he let himself sink to that level.

I remember the guild wars. A sad day that was. To see your friends run off from you. To see the effects of power and position get to their heads. He vowed never to try to become a staff member. Not to become a monster like his friends have. Regret was a very close friend of the player's. He even helped support the player get in Zanza in the first place. They were not only just like a guild family, but like best friends and brothers. The two would always joke and have their fun together. And the player was thrilled and excited the day he became staff. Not as thrilled as he was, but for a different reason. He soon let his pride overcome him. Going around, spreading false rumors and lies to his friends. Many caught on to what he was doing. Then the time came where he would openly attack us and lash out. The battle was held at Snow Town, but things couldn't of gotten any more heated up. It was a shock for both guilds. Brother fought against brother in a brutal battle over the hard ice. Long and hard was this dance held over the dim candle light. For what minutes seemed like days lasted as both combatants fought with fierce strength against one another. With a fatal blow to the enemy flag, we won the war. But had lost many friends.

I remember Revolution, Nexus, Club Crypt. Being the first guests of honor in the VIP room of Revolution meant being Azrael's guinea pigs. By then the player was already used to being an aristocrat. As he had been most of his life. The VIP room was then later on used for when guilds had reached 1k hours. Back when 1k hours was an accomplishment. Eventually staff stopped hosting 1k parties. I suppose that signaled the end of the Golden Age of tower taking. Azrael would eventually stop playing on iClassic too. Leaving his legacy behind to a frog, and a brat in a blue bandana. Surprisingly they've held out for all this time, even after the player left for a month during Lent season. He made sure they would stand strong, and he still would try his hardest to make his friends happy in anyways he could. It's all he cares about on this game, after all.

This time on here has gone by so quickly. What's been years seems like just yesterday. Neither of us can be sure what the future may hold. Looking back makes us wonder whether we've done the right thing or not. What if I've made the wrong choices? Talked to the wrong people? Supported the wrong causes? I probably shouldn't ponder too much on the past... Now that I've told you my story. Now that I've told you everything. Tomorrow's a new story, and I've yet to begin that chapter.

Long ago, on a small island you guys may have heard of, 'The United Kingdom' a younger version of myself went hunting through the woods looking for an adventure. He stumbled across many unimaginable horrors, snakes, bats, birds, dogpoo, everything. That didn't stop him though. He was exploring everything he had seen in these woods, climbing trees, digging holes, even found a little cave that turned out to be an old bomb shelter from the second World War. It was truly an amazing life, but then, everything changed.

A range of sounds sporadically form that were such a high frequency it was like your ears were turning inside out. The boy jumped out of the shelter, and saw a slim humanoid like figure, wearing some kind of suit and arms that were completely disproportionate to the rest of his, no it's body. The boy was frozen in his own fear, and just staring at this figure, and despite not having any facial features, though it was hard to tell from afar, This 'man' stared back.

The boy ran as fast as he could, puddles and puddles of sweat forming and creating a path wherever he ran. The 'man' stood in front of him, as if he had warped. Once again, the boy froze in fear, it all went to black. December 2009, the boy disappeared.

I woke up and it was all a dream, I had breakfast, got my iPod and found Graal Classic, started playing it and the rest is history.

There I was, in 2009 with my first iPod touch, eager to try new things. I had been looking on the app store for a while looking for some apps i wouldn't get bored of. So that day, I downloaded a few apps. One of them was GraalOnline Classic.

I remember starting out, as a innocent boy with no means of hurting anyone. I stayed low, to many clans were out there. As I joined a few, most let me go. I never felt like I fitted in. After all, I was an outcast and loser at school.

Around Easter, I had saved up enough money to get my first item, the Easter Creeper for 500 graalats. I loved that item and was so happy for myself. A few days later, my wifi connection went out and we didn't know the code. You could say I quit.

A few months later, I joined back with 53 hours. So much had changed! Horses, houses, and guilds. I met this nice player who had a horse and told me all about them. He said they make you run faster and farm easier. He was such a nice person and I was a happy player. A few days later I joined my first guild, Reckless1, which Mr Mo ran. I was his co-leader and we took many towers. At the time I was a blue-haired noob and was having a great time.

I later than quit the guild and searched around for another guild. I remember a huge crowd of people on some stairs saying: RECRUITING FOR EXILED ELEMENTS! I had found my guild.

I cannot tell you how much fun and how much memories I had with them. I got my first 100 hours, first horse, and helped them tower. I ranked up quickly, and made friends with the leader: BboyY. We had many haters, but always won. We always took Cruxis, Vg, and CoM's tower easily, and worked great as a team. I made so many friends that I still talked to right to the day I quit.

I later than quit EE and joined my friends guild, we took some towers, but died out. I decided to quit at 232 hours and deleted the app in 2011.

Later around April 2012, I finally found the app. I played and had a blast. I joined a family guild that died, and then went solo. As a dumb noob, I went for the ladies and married. After thinking it over I divorced and vowed never to online date again. I was extremely active. Around July 2012, I had found myself a name that no one had: HON3Y BADG3R.

I started to gain popularity because of my custom head. I was known as the laughing noob. I stuck with it and I was happy. Around this time I joined Graalians and learned so much. I always looked up to Blueh as a role model because of how good of a leader and relaxed he was. I had been making so many new friends and I was happy. People started to take the head I has and be like me. Graal was my place of safety and where I could be cool or popular.

I had joined the guild Graalians and had a blast with others. I wish I never had to leave. You guys were always so happy and jolly and made me feel good for who I am. And now that I think back at why Graal was the only remaining app I had from day, I know why. It is because it was a game where you could do what you wanted and others couldn't hurt you.

So know you know my story. It couldn't of happened without you.

I misspelled google on Bing and had Graal Classic's result right on the first page. I looked more into it and became a moderate addict. Then one day, Pepper Ninja told me that now I could play Classic on my I Phone instead of the computer! I immediately bought the plus version and played for crazy hours.

I bought Era+ and 3 years later, I bought Zone+ :) Then one day, an unfortunate accident occurred. My I Phone went through the wash!!!! I knew my I Phone needed to be cleaned, but not like this!!!! My I Phone turned out to be fine, but the sound was disabled.

Knowing that Graal Classic's music is annoying, but really awesome, I decided to play the computer version again. While I was searching for Graal Classic, I stumbled upon Graalians.com and made an account for it.

The End............or is it? There is always Delteria.
