This is Ron. You don’t know Ron, and if you ever met him, you wouldn’t remember him.
What you may remember is the last time you swung from the chandelier on the ceiling of a two-story tavern. Or maybe you held on to the rope securing that chandelier to the ceiling and cut it to use the chandelier as a counterweight to soar into the air magnificently? You used a tapestry to swing from one part of a balcony to the other like Errol Flynn. You and your mates broke tables in a bar fight, or maybe you broke windows escaping from town guards. At one point or another, I’m willing to bet you’ve made one hell of a mess roleplaying! But did you ever stop to think who cleans up your mess?
You know who fixes those windows? Ron. You know who reassembles those antique heavy wooden tables you smash? Ron. You know who has to climb up into the rafters of that tavern and loop up a new rope line so he can haul that heavy ass chandelier back up to the ceiling where it belongs? Ron. You know who has to put the tapestry and rigging back when your character does their best Jack Sparrow impression? Yep, Ron. Do you have ANY idea how hard it is picking EVERY SINGLE little tiny splinter of wood out of the carpet from when you smashed that one guy with a chair? Ron does.
So thank you Ron! Thank you to one of the greatest unsung heroes of all of us roleplayers. You never complain, you always do your job, and you never look unfavorably upon us, even when we obviously deserve it.
Please join me in offering your thanks to Ron for all he does. He’s one of the good ones!

Assessing the damage w/ Naoki
Roleplay posts: 309 
Age: 19
Physical Description: Kate is built slenderly, but working in her gardens and on the field has defined her muscles. Her eyes shine with an amber hue and her silvery hair never seems to get dirty from the work she still insists on doing herself.
(Full Sized image: http://imgur.com/bJTWavF)
Clothes and Equipment: She wears a pink apron on her that has a simple square pattern. Underneath, brownish green pants and a black tube top. Many tools, such as a flower shovel, a small rake and a spray bottle, fit inside her pockets. A large red ribbon complements her hair.
When she was working at the Midnight Sun, she replaced her red ribbon with a black one she was gifted when she first joined. She also had a green dress, gifted to her by Naoki.
After being gone away for a long time, she has since expanded her wardrobe, and tends not to think about her clothes too much and follows whatever trends Naoki says are popular now.

Many of my freeform/sandbox roleplaying experiences predate this place. And unlike here, there was usually less diversity in where and how people "started" playing and meeting other players in those older games.
What I mean by this was there was always a generic tavern or place that was central. On RoleplayGateway, it might have been Gambit's Bar - on NexxusChat it might have been the Arena. And again unlike here, there tended to be fewer rules and much more immaturity, lending to more of a "wild west" of roleplaying.
These central locations got destroyed by random DBZ fights, black holes, explosive spells, and being warped to different dimensions. These antics tended to happen to these central locations on the oldschool sandbox RPs literally every day.
I always wondered who repaired the tavern or arena every night. Who beamed it back to the current realm. Who filled in the crater caused by a single player who was out to ruin everybody's fun and assured the setting was completely unharmed for the next day of antics.
I "lived" in the NexxusChat Arena for four or five years. I knew something was up. But just like Santa Claus or the Easter Bunny, I always seemed to miss them or fall asleep at the most inopportune of times.
Well, now I know.

The mountaintop guardian shadows his lands...
Roleplay posts: 380
Age: 1023 Years
Physical Description: Size (At standing pose): Height: 39 feet at the shoulder, Length: 104 feet
Eye color: Yellowish-White
Scale color: Light Blue, reflects a dull White in direct light
Dragon Species: European Dragon
Dragon Type: Chromatic
Dragon Color: Blue
http://i.imgur.com/Ba7kzgX.jpg
As a storm dragon, his hide and flesh can generate an electric charge passively when threatened, much like an eel, and can naturally and instantly release it upon being touched by a foreign organism or object.
As a human he takes the appearance of a man in the age range of forties to fifties, averagely built besides being a few inches taller than the average Joe and dressed in clean leather armor and worn blue cloths.
Clothes and Equipment: Two small leather pouches tucked under wings
He owns his father's ancestral unique magical scale mail. It is enchanted to break on impact and the shards return his body and reform into a different piece of armor until it is struck, then it repeats the steps.
A set of personal shoulder pads forged by Brock the forge master. It focuses the passive electricity in his hide into a beam of magic energy which blasts away targets.
Weaponry: Claws, Breath Attack (Lightning), and Bite
Treasure Hoarding: Minimal, mainly gems sometimes gold.
While as a human, he wields a magical long-sword, not much is known about his weapon, as he rarely uses it.
Allegiances: Isra (Loosely)
Player's online availability : US Central Time, Weekends: 8 AM to 11 PM, Weekdays: 6 AM to 9 PM

I spent my youth in city style RP's on AvidGamers, and Ron cleaned up RIDICULOUS messes, constantly. I bet we burned down/blew up that bar twice a day!
Here's to Ron! And to his continued cleaning up after all of us!
