I want to make a thread about stuff that happened on our server back in the day, and how we look back on stuff and sorta laugh about it, and see how we have all grown up and changed over the course of your journey...

Those were the days when a astral ring could be obtained in castle oztroja. Also those were the days when Mee Deegi popped only on the top pillar area. Man ive been playing since this game came out on the PC in the USA and I remember those times. Example, Players used to level in Maze of Shakrami at level 10-14 in those days fighting worms. Now everyone is in a big damn hurry to get to valkurm dunes.

No S*it when CoP First came out i went for the promys adn it was a biznatch gettig to the top. The strays were all VT to IT and they caused a lot of failures. Now they have been redced to 1-2 hit kills. Players are lucky they have it easy now than back when. Also, Remember back when before the Eisen gear and Seers gear? I cant remember what everyone wore except for centurions gear and royal squires armor.

I remember selling stacks of fire crystals for 2200 and thought that was pretty good cash.

I remember when seeing someone in full AF was AWSOME!

I remember my first Roc fight, it was so much fun.

I remember running to Xarcabard on my own to find the Tele-Vazhl crystal. I was so happy when I finally found it.

Good times Smiley: laugh

good point Wintaru, I remember when finally having AF was so awesome. being in a party with people who also had AF, feeling almost invincible.

Wow I could go on for days on this topic.

I still have a pic of my first party when I was a lvl 11 blm with out a sub in the dunes. Someone in my party was like "Hit select and then hit print screen" Since that day I have never had less then 60 pics lol

I remember getting my whm to lvl 25 and getting raise and invisible. I went on an adventure later that night and with sneak and invis as a lvl 25 whm I made it to Castle Vztazl (spelling sorry) baileys and couldn't open any iron gates so I blood warped. I though I was amazing and had no idea where I got to until I did rank 6 mission.

I remember my first day playing the game and I thought I was saving someone from a train of sheep but he was farming them and yelled at me. /cry The sheep I tried to kill to save him killed me also! lol

I remember my first time being raised. I was in ghelsba outpost and I tried to save someone but didn't notice it was a grunt and it kicked my ***. A whm raised me but my HP and MP were messed up (weakness) and I started to get mad and asked the whm "WTF did you do to me! I only have 12 HP now!!!'

I remember my friend took me to La thiene one day and I was so scared and got lost. The place seemed so huge!

I also remember accepting the quest to get water from horlais peak when I was lvl 11 and was to damn stuburn to realize I was too low a lvl to get there. I even tried to have a lvl 56 pld escort me and a friend there, but we wiped. I tried for about 3 months to do that quest. /cry

I remember the first time I found out you can eat food to boost your stats. Riel gave me a roast mushroom at knightswell in ronfaure. I was hooked on pies ever since!

I also remember seeing fenrir for the first time in the grotto. A JP smn had him out. I was like "OMGWTF was that!!!"

I even remember warping Inverse from out pt in garliage because they got on everyones nerves. I still feel bad about it, but I have to admit it was a good laugh. I can't believe I never did it again though. Better watch out!

Well I'll leave it at that. I have tons of fond memories that I would love to share, but maybe another time.

Yeah remember when fenrir first came out, i was in yhoator jungle and I saw him. I asked how you get him and the JP player said "Beat all avatars twice". and that was when SMN didn't have the mini trials that they have now. Back then you couldnt get any avatars unless you fought the prime ones and had a job stong enough to beat them.

I remember when Taikobo and Taruevolution were the talk of the town in South San d'Oria (just who were they?).

I remember when level 40 seemed like such a high level, and level 60 was a pedastal few would reach, but many would strive for.

I remember buying astral rings for 200k total.

I remember when I got Convert on Red Mage. I insisted I mainheal from then on out (even with summoner sub, woot,) and I did. I remember before I became jaded and strove to push myself to my limits with the highest handicap.

I remember when everything was new, when it was all good, and people liked each other.

I remember when linkshells weren't just "a group of likeminded individuals getting together to kill Kirin."

I also remember when I wasn't such a sentimental sod.

So, for old times' sake (though I have nothing against you,) fu[i][/i]ck you, Hiptaru.

I remember buying my Astral Rings for 300k each, ah nice.... Of course, I also remember paying 1.4m for my Apollo's Staff, meh.

I remember not having a clue what beastmen seals were used for and no one seemed to know either! lol

Ahhh ignorance is bliss indeed.

I also remember when I first walked out to east ronfaure with my bad *** blm I got killed 3 times before I killed my first rabbit. And then someone outside skilling up their healing magic cast protect on me and cured me while in a fight! I felt so indebt to them for their kindness. That was truly my first experence that made me do so much and help others as much as I have. I always try to do what I can to help others in need. And everyone I have helped owes thanks to that low lvl mage who saved my life for the first time.

Remember that time Bobby tackled the ref? Oh wait, this isnt the place for that.

I remember thinking my Drg was the stank in full elvaan RSE and thought it looked good. I've since changed my opinion about the blue and white scuba suit.

I got lost in KRT as a level 8Mnk trying to do Mission 2 for Sandy. A friend had to come save me and when he finally led me out we were talking in /say and I kept typing "say" before everything I said.^^

Almost got my *** kicked as a level 11Mnk by a bunny in La Thiene Plateau.

I remember buying subligar for the 1st time - equiping it and then promptly taking it off and putting it back up for auction.

I remember when...

...It took me three hours to find my way out of Windurst to fight a monster. (For the life of me, I kept going in circles...)

...I reached level thirty to open my first new subjobs. (Ah.. Rdm/Drk...)

...I crafted my first object (copper ingot).

...I started simply taking pictures of the scenery. (especially aftering seeing my first Holla rainbow)

...I remember shouting in Jeuno for the first time to get a coffer key for Eldieme Necropolis. (I ended up getting a full alliance, but by the time I got my key (10 hours later), only four of us were left)

...I got first airship ride. (What a view)

...I got first chocobo license. (Dear Altana, no more walking for me!)

...I tried to find my way to Sea Grotto's cave and ended up at Ifrit's Cauldron. (True story)

...I targeted my first wrong monster. (I hate you dunes leech)

...I started my first really really big train. (40+ orcs... I'm sooo sorry to the party that I ended up dieing next to)

...I was dragged from Windy to Bastok to San'doria all in one day. (Erd, that was some run... "Are we there yet?"

...I beat my first NM all on my own. (Doppleganger Dio, thank you for my Cruel Scythe)

...I fell asleep in the middle of a mission at 4 am. (You guys were gonna leave me there!)

...I saw my first avatar. (I just can't remember what it was O.o)

...I got killed for the first time by Bloodtear Baldurf. (And later, killing him for the first time)

...we made crazy parties that didn't have white mages and had the oddest job combinations, simply wanting to fight and have fun. (You guys were the best parties in the dunes I ever had)

...I first sat on a Galka couch for the first time. (Notorious Galka Couch Sitter Extraordinaire!)

...I met the majority of ppl on Bismarck and cherish those memories to death.

...I somehow became an Allakhazam poster and then loving Bismarck to death with *Hugglez*
