Nostalgia Thread

I remember falling to my death on my first day when I tried to find the Bronze Doors. There was a guard standing there and there was a gap in the fence where he was standing. Had to be the entrance to the Bronze Doors, right?

Quite a couple of meters below, I figured out, it probably wasn't. ;-)

I remember finding my first diamond, very exciting. Those were the glory days.

all i ever could get was rubies.

i think the shining moment from me was when kada got her tavern made into an in game place.  that was a very awesome day for everyone, players and devs alike.

I remember hunting trepors along the OjaRoad path for hours on end, and then, excited over my whopping 30-ish damage with my daggers, I saw a ulbdernaut as I ran back to sell my loot.  I moved my camera to get a good look at it's face, and thought "Hey, that thing's pretty cool"  I decided to try killing it....with level 20 daggers....  Needless to say, I didn't win

I remember sharing the rogue in the forest near the magic shop with 3-5 other people talking it in turns to kill it and just generally chatting while doing so.

I also remember the time where the only thing implemented was picking up rubies. I found only 1 diamond in my whole playing. I just loved this game from the beginning. Just sad that I don't have the time to play enough.

I seem to remember, years and years ago...i think this was towards the start of Crystal Blue, there was a locked chest in the place where the barrels are in hydlaa under the exit from the dungeon that you couldn't actually do anything with because lockpicking wasn't implemented...but i can't find anyone else who remembers this chest. So...does anyone besides me remember this chest?

[LigH]

Yes, I do (during 0.3.01x) – on the "Woipers' Wiesn". There were even two, with a higher and a lower limit of lockpicking. But we all have no serious skill in it, yet.

   That made my day. I've been looking for someone who remembered that for a while.

[LigH]

Even the Woiperdinger are still here. Who else do you remember? Maybe I can help you finding them (if they are still present).

[Jekkar]

I remember being able to chat in a box. Those were the days.

(17:05:06) Joban says: Coal isn't a metal
(17:05:14) Trogdar says: i know but still
(17:05:24) Tanner says: use your brain

  That is one of my favorites.

I remember my first day fairly well.  And those were the days before logs!  I met a fenki names Savarin and a Ynnwn with a Japanese sounding name.  Savarin taught me how to get on the roofs.  Then I met another fenki named Karyuu.       I remember playing for hours collecting crystals.  Every time someone found a diamond they would greet it and everyone would congratulate them.  It reminded me of shouts of "Norm!" on Cheers.   

[Dourstone]

I remember the crystals on the ground. good times. I pulled up an old account from early CB the other day. Had an alt on it w/ no skills. at all. don't think that's even possible anymore.

Things I remember about the Good Ole Days (pre-0.5)

-Not as much lag as now
-Game didn't take 15 minutes to start up
-Hydlaa doesn't take 4 minutes to load
-Dueling was skill-based, not on what your axe level is
-I could actually kill monsters besides Arangmas, rats, and sewer mobs, and the occasional unskilled rogue, and my friends and I would go ulber-hunting often.
-There was a nicer community (not slamming on anyone in particular, but I've noticed the players have gotten more sour as of late)

Now, in non-technical terms, my best planeshift memory was definitely falling to the bottom of the Bronze Doors and having it glitch up so that I didn't die. I was such a noob lol. I thought I did something special and that there was unreleased stuff down in that chasm and that I got super lucky, and announced so in the chat (I was mislead by some of the pictures of stuff that actually wasn't in-game that was on the main website). I explored around there for 2 hours before realizing how stupid I was.
