The Person Behind the Player MrCoastie
AeriusX as many people know him or PimpPaul as others has been gracious enough to give me an afternoon in which I interviewed him for your reading pleasure.

A man who has been playing the game for three years now come April 4th has had many accomplishments like reaching Legendary Don twice so far this reset without getting to State Don. Both times he said he was very close too. A feat that many people can never even get close too. Another somewhat amazing feat that many people dream of is to own a crew. He has indeed accomplished this as he is one of the three bosses of Virtual Reality, who by the way isn't recruiting, I already asked. He is in fact another person who has accomplished a first in BL from the new State Don and Nation Don ranks we have this reset by being the very first body guard to ever kill a Nation Don. Along with the Nation Don, he has killed well over one hundred people thus far. Simply astonishing accomplishments from Mr. Aerius.

I talked to him a little bit about what he thinks the community of BL could do to make the gaming experience a little better as well and got to some pretty good points that I would like to share with you. He feels that their should be a tenth state. He did not specify in which state he would like to see or why but it brings up a valid debate that has been going on in the community of BL for quite some time now. Do you as a reader feel there should be a tenth state? You should think about that. Besides this he has an innovative idea for crews and bullet factories as well. He feels that if a crew owns fifteen pieces of land in a square pattern, the crew should be able to build a private bullet factory on those grounds. I believe some hashing out would have to be done to make this work, but is a very promising idea. He like many also believes their should be more crews. How many more wasn't specified. There is something that struck me as well as him as we were talking about this as well. Have you ever noticed that there is no real simple way to see a possible feature come to life besides just submitting a ticket and pretty much praying? Some things like this you, the reader; should take into consideration and ponder about possibly to make new suggestions work better.

I was rather enthused to hear his answer to my next line of questions as usually what makes this game fun for one person, makes it daunting for the next. Very controversial subject. He says that the friends that you make on the game and the universal trust that you create with them is what makes the game more appealing to him. Also stated that he used to love the forums, but lately they have become boring. He once again did not specify as to why though.

Another subject that could be touchy is as to why people dislike the game but continue to play anyways, for him it was simple. He hates dupe killers who use exploited cash to make their kills. Although the staff is doing a wonderful job, it sometimes just isn't enough. He also stated that it is mostly because of his two deaths so close to State Don is what caused him to have that reason.

AeriusX was kind enough to explain to me a few things about his crew as well like as to why he feels his crew is unique to others and what their current goal is. He feels that the crew has many respected people in it, and in his words "because our crew color is orange". The main reason he pointed out is because of the tremendous support he had from old members when they started the crew back up. Which as many people know, is very vital to get any crew off the ground. Stated to me when I asked him about visiting is that the crew recruiting is closed so the members can form a stronger bond with one another to become more like a family.

Well that is all for this week, I hope you enjoyed reading and learning more about AeriusX. If you wish to be featured next week please contact me directly. First come, first serve basis though.
