Over 3 years ago (duh! I just realized that I missed my 3rd EL birthday :x)

 

All I remember:

- Start map (not the IP map)

- One-click harvesting (opportunity to cheat with auticlicker programs)

- Male gobs = hard opponent

- No tarsengaard map

- Portland map without gobs, fruits in front of the tavern were a good way to earn fine money

- Hard crusaides against gargs in wsc cave =]

- Tryied to sell bread on market channel =] (no channel tabs)

- No cooldown, mixed everything on fruits

- Tele's to other maps

- High EFE price

- Titanium chain did not require EFE

- Iron plate needed 1 EFE

- old storage (without separate window)

- bag-jumping trade :omg:

- np p2p races, no c2,

- Mortos Temple in VOTD

- no cols, no thermals, no tutorial_npc

 

Edit:

- no bots

- PL mod - teh banned 0n3na, and her bot: Linux (the very first bot in the game).

- no masterpiter n44b :P

Du-uh, of course she wasn't! I'm in PL guild since the very beginning, I know something about it :P

 

I mean that she was a polish mod, not a PL guild member (God save us!)

I believe Blood wanted to stress she was a PoLish mod, not a member of PL. *phew*

Afaik, Teh banned 0n3na is making her own game, based on ragnarok server or something like that. And afaik, she was never a mod but a newb helper (i know this from the old folks in ^v^ who told me ancient histories). But wildly offtopic this stuff. o.O

I remember all things mentioned above..and beyond..^^ *sighs* I must be getting old, lol!

 

I also remember Newcomers Island..where we had to learn the very basics..took me DAYS to get of off there!!

 

And oh..the first rabbit I killed..I can still feel the pain it caused me..and yes..I still say a little prayer for each roadkill that I pass..and appologise in silnece when I see a deer go down by my hands..

 

And oh..I remember Hurcules..the Mighty One..the ONLY true Hurcy..I sat there, at his feet..in awe how he took down a bear while I healed the small wounds the bear caused...never in my wildest dreams i thought i would ever be brave enough to copy that!

 

Yes..i remember everything..and I am amazed how much has changed..and yet..stayed the same..the community..the way we connect with all ppl around the Universe..just like the intention of our God was, here on the Eternal Lands..

 

I cant say it enough..thanks, to everyone..our God and Roja, and all who helped develope this World..:P

Dushan sums it up pretty nicely for me...but he forgot two things :P

 

 

Raven and Relnor were both on Newbie Island (not a storage) for tutorials (yes, NEWBIE ISLAND).

 

Also, there were orcs in portland :)

 

 

oops...also platinum coins :omg:

That's incorrect. At least Minai was there before Linux, and I'm pretty sure Nera was there before Linux too.

 

EDIT: typo

I remember everything above except the see-through chars, I came just after those left.

 

I remember running through Grubani as a very new newbie with two very nice guides, Kasgoroth and HempKnight...it was pk then and I remember being petrified I would click on one of them! It was exciting though :omg:

 

I also remember sitting at the bar in Moonshadow's Tavern with Nillyfein and Tumaros entertaining me while I was mixing and drinking combat potions to get that elusive level 30 so I could FINALLY wear the white potions cape. (the equivilent of our mm cape now)

 

Oh!!! and MikeH and his llama religion! LOL

 

No tab maps :P

 

No help_me's...

 

Lol about the no auto harvesting (one item per click): It was soo funny when somebody got a macro to harvest for them...the way it worked, anything that got between your cursor and the item got clicked instead...you could always tell who had the macro when the bear walked in front and they clicked it :)

OMG!!! I forgot I sold my gen axe book to you :P

 

300k was a lot back then :omg:

 

hehe, that's not me, afaik Dnath bought it :)

I remember one more thing: that nasty narrow bridge in DP :)

People get stuck on it too often, and when someone AFKed on autowalk in the middle of the bridge, everyone got to move back to let him pass.

Once i was searching old stuff on forums (to see sunny_moon posts :P \o/) and there was a post of some newb trying to scam Radu to pay a toll to pass a bridge or something like that. :)

<3 teleports to other maps, especially when I was harving some ore in CC and got teleported to SKF just under Cyclops' feet :omg: since that time I know how to 'flee'

 

I remember : 1 click 1 harvested item

I don't think so :omg:

 

You couldn't trade the items from the storge. You could only trade amount of items that met your EMU. And when you had to sell i.e. 10k HE, and you've got only 500 EMU oe even less... uhm... well, go figure. The common trick was to put all HE's to bag, get the money from the buyer, and step down from the bag. This was of course a great opportunity to get scammed (especially when you were buying something), also somone could easly bagjump you. Altho I never get scammed this way, neighter cheated anyone. But I must say, I wouldn't preffer this kind of trade right now. EL changed, so do people. It's much more risky way atm.

I remember that guy Nintenduh spending his days on lilacs near kf

A guy called Gur0 killed me when i go kf to pvp

First Iron plate

Some naab called Curt_ killed me also

When i get gods and use at bless to kill a female orc in votd temple, in that time morto serve was there

The message: Have u no respect for the deads? While runing on ip to kill bunies and beavers ( that message still there?)

Good old Luso times with eilinel, juneight, alieksei, jastur, tuga_elf, ruido etc etc, oh my i used to laugh all day long

The Eili sister, a naab called Matess of a naabs guild :P

Ahh... lessee, what are the big changes I've seen...

 

inter-map teleport nexii

going from a single-channel chat to multichannel

cooldown (ahh, I remember, back in the day, mixing diss rings (which were pretty much as high as it got for crafting) with veggies (fruit? nah, not as common)... eat 2 veggies, mix a ring, eat three veggies, mix...)

Books, ooh, I remember when gen axe was 70k... and very few people had the levels to be able to make axes

gloweys were the fancy thing to have... only from EL shop, you'd pay up to 500kgc in-game for one

storage was textual, like NPC trade is now

I remember when many of the quests were added... the mad excitement when you could finally get cheap leather (and it was, for a little while, even cheaper than now)

no magic quickbar... no auto-mix... ohmigosh, the old teleportal sound effect, that was annoying... no counters... no buddy list... only a few maps ingame as opposed to now... boy, but EL has changed :P

Pretty much the same ive played 3 1/2 years so yaa

Also the singe click per harvest

And harvesting Veggies in secret spot on IP and asking learner lots of questions and cursing at the fact i couldnt harvest quartz

yep its still there :P

 

I know its not soo long ago, but the fe changing from rec level 0 to 1, is something I remember well...

 

Straining my mind back even further I just remember sitting in votd harving lilacs, when fluffy was the strongest
