To the best faction to ever exist in The Matrix Online. A group of players gathering under a name to make our mark on Matrix history, and to help make the game the best it can be.
We are not just people who share a common interest in this game. We are more involved with eachother than anything I could have expected, both before and after my acceptance. Our love of The Matrix brought us together, and through seemingly everything, we've managed to stay together.
Take a look up at the top left of your screen: Furious Angels - Best Zion Faction
I can't help but repeat that...
Best.
Zion.
Faction.
What else needs to be said?
I consider you all family. Here's to another three great years in FA, and in The Matrix Online!

Couldn't be put any better Manic. Thank you to everyone, I too consider you all family. Congrats on all we have accomplished in this first 3 years! Thank you for accepting me into the greatest faction ever created and I look forward to much more time with you all. I may have only been an angel for a year now, but I've loved every minute of it. The PvPing, the late night drinking together, impacting the storyline of the Matrix world, and so on. It has been amazing and I know it is only going to get better.
Happy 3rd BDay FA

For she's a jolly good female, for she's a jolly good female......
Man, its hard to believe that we are still around, just look at everything we've been through, look how many other faction have risen and fallen during our time. Here's to the best 1/7th of my life.
To all of you who are here, thanks for making us the Best Zion Faction, I look forward to playing with you all. Here's to kicking more ass, and taking more names.
To all of you who have left, to all of those who have fallen. I only hope you come back. Here's to following your feet home.
To all of you who will be part of the future. Here's to treading the path.
To all of those who have tried to become members of the ranks of the Angels. I only hope that you won't stop trying till your here. Here's to your luck and skill.
Lithium, Broin, Destyn, Kosila, Ket, Bell, Kron, Grim, and all the other staff and captains. Here's to being great leaders, and great friends.
To the members of the Veritas, we all know we live on the best ship ever. Here's to the craziness today, and to the craziness for tomorrow.
To the Veritas, The ship of Truth, may I live by your name, only to die embraced in it. Here's to getting me from here to there.
Lastly......
Tbone, Thank you for creating the faction, and being with us every step of the way. Here's to you.

All I can say is, I'm glad I finally found a home where I feel 100% comfortable. FA by far is the most caring and teamwork driven factions I've ever seen. Thank you all for letting me be a part of the greatest faction in any mmo.
Happy Birthday FA. Looking forward to many more!

Even now, after more than a year, it still humbles me to be able to walk around with that FA tag over my head.
Cheers to the founders of this faction, they must have known what they were doing. Cheers to everyone between then and now, cheers to my brothers and sisters, and cheers to the bright future.
Cheers to our refusal to submit to mediocrity. This name, this presence, commands so much well-deserved respect. I only hope that I can continue to uphold the honor of calling all of you faction mates.
Cheers to the bonds we've formed. I've made relationships here that mean as much to me as those I can physically see everyday.
And finally.... Cheers to the Angel herself, and of course, our beloved Commander and our venerable Captains. Truly I would follow you into the machine city and back without a second thought.
Look how far we've come....
-
Woohoo!!! Best faction evah! ;)
-
It's hard to believe that we're three years old. Wow. It really says something about a faction when they can last three years without one single change in a major leadership position. Thank you for bringing me into a part of this faction.
-
I used to brag about our faction all the time to my real life friends about how much fun we have had together gaming, and one actually signed up for MxO based on one of my testimonials(that mzjade person).. Anyways yeah we've had some crazy ass fun together, especially during some of those wild events. Happy B-Day Furious Angels!
-
In the words of the great Keanu Reeves.... "Woah."
I haven't been in this faction as long as some of you, but I still find it amazing that the Furious Angels are three years old. In the gaming world, it isn't very common to find a group/guild/clan/team that stays together for that long. In my experience in gaming, you'll have a group who will stay together for a year at most, maybe two. Then the experience starts fading, and people move on in different directions, or on to different things. I'm very happy that I can be a part of a group like the Furious Angels. You guys defy what I have known as online gaming. :) You guys are my online friends, and I enjoy talking and gaming with all of you. I can only agree with Manic. Here is to another three year of good times in the Furious Angels, and to another three years in The Matrix Online.

Three years, huh?
>.>
<.<
I gues I should have drawn something for this one...
-
Happy Birthday, FA!
This is truly an amazing faction. You're all the most consistent, intelligent, compassionate, hard-working, cohesive, talented and friendliest group of people I have ever had the pleasure of sharing an eye opening experience with over the internet. This faction has truly changed my expectations and standards of how a team and community should interact and function.
To many more years, Angels!
Cheers!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY FURIOUS ANGELS!!!!!!
/salute to all of you who have made this the greatest faction!

Cheers

To three yrs. Wow. Where to start and what to say. I remember the first day I stepped into this simulation. So realistic and fascinating I couldn't believe my eyes; what I saw, how it made me feel. Like I was actually there! This being my first MMO I was blow out of my seat with awe.
I remember after comfortably getting somewhat used to everything, I asked around about the best Zion faction. The words "Furious Angels" caught my intention. From that moment on, I made it a personal goal to find out how I could join them. I hardly saw them running around, or jumping from rooftop to rooftop, but I knew they were there, I could feel them.
I finally remember reaching the "FA site" in hopes of figuring out how to join. While doing so I stumbled across the bluepill forums seeing this what was called "RP" and was amazed and knew this was the place for me, my "destiny" if you will. From there, I made it my personal objective to track down any Furious Angels I could and add them to my buddy list (three month process). I remember the first Angel I saw (WhiteMyst), I was like "whoa" I asked him if I could meet Tbone and the next thing I know I'm standing in a pvp battle and Tbone come out of nowhere throwing knives at everything and I was like "SWEET! It's GOD!" *lol* I gave Tbone a quick hello and a smack on the ass *lol* and told him I was interested in joining FA and he gave me the most crappiest reply in the world: "Follow the Angel". I was like what in a blue monkies ass is this guy on?! Is it crack? No. I then realized it meant something and what was said were directions; metaphoricly. I had seen the first FA vid and was like OMG OMG! Turn on ftw! *j/k*
Then my path along the challenge began. It took me 7 months of headaches, annoying Angels, excitement from passing a single riddle and feeling closer each time I progressed. The challenge was friggin like disarming a bomb or trying to get into the governments secret computer files or something *looks at Broin >.>* (No Broin I didn't, so you don't have to come after me now :P). Finally, my riddles were thru and I awaited my interview with the Angels. About 2 and 1/2 weeks later I finally was contacted by Tbone while I was pvping or something in Midian E (yes I remember the exact location), I then joined a team with with 5 FA members and Tbone gave me co-ords to follow. It led me to a building and Tbone was the only one there and he was in HIS WHITES! I was like "YES! BEST MOMENT OF MY LIFE, RIGHT HERE!" So I jumped on TS and I was so nervous I thought I was going to friggin faint or something in the middle of the interview. :/ (Now is the time to quit laughing if you are!) Luckily I had my interview and was excepted.
----------------Before I go any further and drag this out like a mofo, I apologize if I'm not really supposed to mention this. Whoops if so. :P-------------------------------------
It was the greatest time I could ever imagine! I was a "noob" as some would say and didn't know much outside my tree (KFGM). So I asked ALOT of questions. About 2 weeks went by as I jacked in the next day only to see that I'd been removed form FA. I was like "my life in MxO is over" *lol* But at the time, I didn't find it the least bit funny. I contacted anyone in FA I could in game only to find me being ignored (/ignore Woodgrain) by Yotogi and DA6ONET, from who I can remember (ASSSESSSSSSSS!!!!!!) :D. So since I couldn't get a hold of anyone I logged out and jumped onto MSN and yahoo to "track down Tbone" *LAWL*. I wanted an explanation to what had happend and was not going to stop until I recieved one. Finally I got ahold of Tbone and he said the most PAINFUL words I thought I could ever here. That's about the time I thought maybe MxO wasn't for me. Maybe it was, like Morpheus said, "you're living in a dream world" meaning being in FA would only ever be a dream and nothing more. But, despite the anger I had built up inside, I told myself I was wrong, that I was meant to be an "Angel" one way or another, no matter what.
I believe a yr and 1/2 had passed since my being removed form FA. Alot had changed since then, my expirience ingame with knowing alot more, having the privelage to run my own faction, meeting new people and gradually getting to know FA outside of the faction thru PvP, etc. and finally getting Da6onet to un-ignore me (you're still an ASS! :P). I remember Da6 said he was coding when he hit that un-ignore button, LAWL. I knew he loved me on the inside deep down. I just knew it! Anyways, I had a major leave of members from MxO that were in my faction and was to the point I was like "Fuck MxO, I'm leaving". During my yr and 1/2 of being released from FA everytime I saw them, there was something inside me that tore at my mind telling by I belonged there. Everytime I saw the white uni's I felt a sense of emptyness and part of me gone; lost in the code of my RSI... never to be filled again. That was until I met and spoke with two certain FA individuals (you know who you are) and they simply said, "Just talk to Tbone". I was like "yeah right, blah blah blah blah." Until one day the emptyness and void that I felt got the best of me and I couldn't take it anymore. I had a decision to make. Leave the Matrix for good. Or have that talk with Tbone. I had made my mind up that if I could not be amongst that which I once belonged, then I didn't want to be amongst anyone or anything. I honestly didn't care to be. So, I sent Tbone an email asking of it'd be possible to ever rejoin FA, or get a 2nd chance rather. After wating what seemed a lifetime I recieved a reply. It took my like 10 minutes to mustur up the "balls" (and no guys and gals, my balls aren't for joo! Sorry, I know if Pirus reads this he'll be thinking something like that along with SAFFY so I figured I'd beat them to it.) to open the email. My stomach dropped and I held my breath beginning to read. Finally my hopes had been answered. All this time wondering IF it was truely meant or not. Out of pure "hell yeah excitement" I accidently put a hole in my wall :/. I blame Tbone. Sorry T. *LAWL* So I began to re-take the challenge once more. This time it only took me like 3 weeks I think, taking abreak for a few days before I completely finished. Then I had my interview and was excepted. 2 weeks later the moment of truth came. I remember hesitating to jack-in for like an hour only to have history repeat itself. During my 2 weeks probation period I was very anti-social and didn't speak much. I didn't want anything to go wrong this time. Then I thought to myself, "watch me get removed this time for not talking" *lol*. So while sitting on the edge of my seat I jacked in and saw I was still a part of FA. I surely thought something was wrong so I waited for Tbone to come online I think and said "you know my two weeks is up right?" He said "yeah" and nothing else (turd). Finally I came to the realization that I had been fully excepted and still to this day, try not to talk alot *LOL*, among other things. Sorry for dragging this whole thing out as I have.
Without further adue, here's to 3yrs of the best damn faction to hit the MxO world. To those who didn't give up on my efforts to rejoin and wouldn't let me give up on myself. To that old guy, Broin for helping the nerves ease while waiting for my second interview. To Tbone and those who had a say-so in the decision of letting me have that second chance I waited 1yr and a 1/2 for. It means more than you know. To Safy and Lits (spoiler), if it wasn't for you two beautiful ladies I know I would not be here today having the time of my MxO life. To Bell, damn... you're older than Broin. To you man, for the other night... oh yeah, you know what I'm talking about! *grins* (I can't wait to hear Pirus' response to this LOL). To Destyn, for putting up with a total of 8 months of riddle harrassment and my bullshit while I took the challenge and never one time let me doubt myself. You're the best bro. I hope you still love teh Woodeh. And to everyone else who's in some shape, fashion or form welcomed me back and made me feel like I belonged. And last but deffinately not least N4SU2, for motivating me as a friend and a brother. Telling me I did belong when I doubted myself. I thank all of you!
