FEMAELSTROM's Archive

FEMAELSTROM came to Home in June 2011 and never wanted to leave, even at weekly maintenance when he usually gets booted. The sand box environment appeals to the explorer in him and often is out and about as he ‘geeks’ out dressed like some sort of sci-fi character, while he people watches in popular public spaces. An artist and writer, FEMAELSTROM loves making friends and meeting people. He loves sci-fi and decorating Home estates and loves to respond “here” when people ask “where are you from?” in public places.

All the clamoring for major gaming IPs to be introduced into Home really does a disservice to the wonderful, bespoke creations Home has to offer. Granzella, in particular, is usually cited as a very popular Home development house.

Paying for a service or content comes with the expectation that they function within acceptable limits. When a service fails to deliver or content fails to appear, a company finds it good practice to fix the issue promptly – and the longer a company goes without fixing a problem, the more likely customers will turn.
