Roar. So many threads identical to this one spamming up the forums. D: Funnily enough I haven't posted in any yet. So, I'll bite.
Personally I'm more looking forward to Pre-OB than OB. It's easier on my poor weak heart, since it's not as far away. /dramaqueen. I didn't get to play during Closed Beta, so I'm basically looking forward to exploring everything and getting a general feel for the Mabinogi world before OB starts and I get serious about my character's development. I just see it as offering me some freedom to goof around. Since we all know the SECOND OB starts, it'll be like a crazy rat-race to get the highest level etc. @_@
One thing that I hadn't counted on when I first joined the forums, was meeting so many awesome Mabinogi players. XD Honestly, I don't often find people online that I actually LIKE/have fun with. I'm usually the serious-but-friendly, advice-giving, newbie-helping person who does what they can to help someone, then moves on to the next person. I do enjoy that, but I am so looking forward to seeing a few certain people from around forums, in-game. >_>
As far as what I'm going to do until then goes... I'm playing through Crono Trigger again. :3 Such a classic. And when I need a break from that, I've been hopping on the forums. I'm boring, I know.

Hellsing + Solid&Etc = indescribable awesome
