In my opinion, this was the best SL region among the European SWRP communities during the peak of FCRS popularity, and not only because of the region's name, which is now familiar to everyone, or because of the enormous traffic, which was much higher than today: the peak was around 30K. At the same time, we organized the Lehon Sith Academy for newcomers and our allies, where our members and friends could train using FCRS.
We had a ground outpost built by Marcel Downing, a Lehon arena that I built myself, and our own lightsaber tournament. I asked the FCRS GM to make this tournament a ranked tournament with the winner, which would award the title of Galactic Champion and be more popular with players, but he refused. Incidentally, EvaFashion Breen, a member of the group Deo Manga, won the very first Lehon tournament. Her profile can also be found in our in-game Hall of Fame. We also had a small medical facility, rentals, a vendors area, and a movie theater. Opposite the outpost, Lady Viso built our first Temple of Lehon, which housed the Sith archives. It operated from 2008 to 2009. Those were the good old days.
There were also many fun days when some stupid people attacked me for no roleplaying reason when I was alone in the sim (remember the unique rule of role play?). These assholes never came alone, always in a group of pissers. Their names don't deserve to be published here, but I've seen their fandom profiles where, with pomp and endless stories, they presented themselves as "true followers of the dark side, blah-blah-blah." I can only say one thing: if you're such a badass Sith Lord, you don't need instigators whom you incite against others while you run all over the SL, avoiding retribution. Your shitty fandom stories aren't worth a dime after that, even if they're dated back to 2005, or even 2005 BC, no one cares.
I'm saying this for one purpose: to confirm that the SWRP roleplaying game is fundamentally built on irreconcilable contradictions, and such "players" are further proof of that. The sim's opening wasn't without its bitter pills. In keeping with the traditions of the time, sim openings were celebrated with a battle between the main opposing factions. In this case, it was the Sith and the Knights of the Potentium. The latter emerged victorious. However, our ubiquitous Marcel, who later declared himself the self-proclaimed "Emperor of Lehon" as Darth Visage, distinguished himself by banning the Grand Master of the Potentium, Dexem Voom, accusing him of cheating. This is yet another example of how "well" the SWRP functioned. I personally apologized to Dexem afterwards. He was an old-school player and had never been known to cheat before or after this incident. Advice to RP sim owners: never grant access to the ban list to anyone. Read more here.
