This month we have a special interview with the one and only Omicron!

Lucifers GIM: What made you want to create the best OSRS private server (Alora)?

Omicron: RSPS has always fascinated me, and I have been in the community for about 15 years now, which feels surreal to say. A year before Alora was launched, I decided to approach things differently and really give it my best shot to create a quality experience in the RSPS scene, which I felt was lacking at the time, especially for OSRS Economy servers. I wanted to create a community where people could feel like they belonged, and where they could trust that they'd always enjoy their time there, and that even if they took a break from the game, the team behind it would continue to improve upon it as best as we could.

Lucifers GIM: When you aren't coding and working on Alora, what are some things you enjoy doing in your free time?

Omicron: When I get out of the coding cave, my hobbies are pretty standard. I read a lot, and enjoy the simple things such as going on walks with my dog, or lifting some weights. I also love to travel when I get the chance, experiencing new cultures is important to me.

Lucifers GIM: What's your favorite part about Alora in general, and why?

Omicron: Without a doubt, the community. There's a lot that I'm proud of that myself, Chad, or the staff team directly had a part in, but when I first launched this game I didn't expect it to foster such a strong, dedicated and welcoming community that would become a second family to many of us. I don't think many (if any) other servers have such a community.

Lucifers GIM: What movie title best describes your life, and why?

Omicron: Probably "Too Young to Be a Dad", although I have accepted that it is my responsibility to be the dad of Alora.

Lucifers GIM: What is the luckiest thing that has ever happened to you?

Omicron: I do think that there was a lot of luck involved in Alora coming together, and I feel blessed to have been able to keep this ship afloat for nearly 6 years.

Lucifers GIM: What are you looking forward to in the coming months?

Omicron: Raids 3, without a doubt. I've always had a great time implementing the previous raids and watching players enjoy the content, and it is content that players will be able to enjoy for years to come, so it will be something that I am sure we're all looking forward to.

Lucifers GIM: What could you give a long presentation on without any preparation?

Omicron: Pretty much what you'd expect, which is how to run an RSPS. There is a lot that goes into it, especially in the early stages, and at this point it is something that I have internalized and can speak on without preparation.

Lucifers GIM: What is a hobby you would get into if time and money weren't an issue?

Omicron: Being able to skillfully play the guitar is something that I've wanted to do for a long time, but could never find enough time to dedicate to it. I still dabble in it occasionally but always seem to get too busy or lose the motivation to continue. Someday, I'll serenade Moe with a few songs.

Lucifers GIM: Who's your go to band or artist when you can't figure out what to listen to, and why?

Omicron: Probably The Weeknd, I've been listening to his music for years and feel like you can't go wrong with it.
