Golden Era
whoa
oh memories
My fondest memories of this game are from watching the behavior of people whose egos are inextricably tied to video game characters. That's an unending laugh fest right there.

let's be honest.
you kind of deserved it.
unless this is some dude using Hans' account and not Hans himself =P
My fondest memories were when I came back on my second account to post in a thread I didn't bother to read anything but the last 4 posts in.
Ahhh, those were the days.
I am disappointed that no one took up the crown of video posting you know.
So this is the thread you were talking about, Drac.
Hmm, I guess my fondest memories are the Hami raids and all the people I got to know from them. Also resulted in putting someone on global ignore for the first time. Then there was that time I was running for "most deaths in a raid ever"...
speaking of the golden era.
I see they locked the nice people thread.

My brother got me this game for my birthday...5 years ago. He's regretted it ever since. heh
Favourite thing #1: all the friends i've made on here. I definitely wouldn't still be playing if it wasn't for them. Some i've met in real life and have been the better for it.
Favourite thing #2: figuring out how cool my dark/dark def (my first toon) was after they fixed him...and 3 fluffies...good times.
Favourite thing #3: Dracula X ASing/stunning my scrapper somehow in Warburg a while back and getting me to seriously rethink my build. heh I doubt you'll remember, but I did. Ouch...

That's where I met nearly everyone that I know in this game.
<QR>
I was never a part of the HDS/Hami raids (only went to one and was extremely bored) but have so many memories that were really fun Too many to list but a few are as follows:
1.) The 'old FS' on my Kin/Rad...getting rows and rows of FS icons...mmmmm....and of course the ol' suction sound of FS; now is gone heh.
2.) Of course all meeting/teaming with all sorts of great people (mainly from the LEGION but also MDK/Sisterhood, etc...)
3.) When Negative Ion was still around/playing everyone thought I was Negative Ion. I never really met/talked/teamed with Negative Ion (I don't think I have at least ) but was funny to have people /t me saying "Hi Ion!" And we start talking back and forth and then the person would be like, "this is Negative Ion right?" and I say, "no...Energizing Ion!"
4.) Seeing some of the new tilesets in missions during the LEGION's alt nights...like Dr. Vahz's new layout, the Synapse TF, etc...
And more that I can't type at the moment...
Edit: One more quick one that I got reminded of while looking at Golden Ace's pic/name/post. I remember doing a Synapse TF with my friend (only the 2 of us) hoping that we could defeat the final AV at the end. Got to him but we couldn't do it. So the next time we played we invited a random person (turns out to be Golden Ace's tanker) and we got to the AV and something happened (I got hit a lot by the AV or something) and I was all like, "RUN!" and kept hitting the F6 key to run...but then noticed that Golden Ace's tanker was still alive and wayling on the Clockwork King....and I was like, "oh nm..." and we won
Still have the pictures of me saying "Run!" and then pictures of GA's tanker beating on the CK.

heh reading thru the 10 pages I thought it was funny how many of you I've actually teamed with or interacted with over the years but only minorly every time....its like I'm on the periphery of greatness!....I am a minor comic book character!
It s like I'm Jack of Hearts or something....cept...not as well known..
But screwily enough I just wanted to say that after about 4yrs and 10 mths of playing this game MY fondest memory is of coming to a screeching halt in Wents one day because I realised a Monkey got her Butt back.

haha!!! I spend a lot of time in WW!!
I was reading thru this thread again and I have some other fond memories with regards to raids (old school ones, not the newfangled ones):
My rock
5 hami's at a time
Falling asleep at my desk while at a raid, having the raid leader (Firewire (Kyle)) on follow - which my toon did follow him around the ENTIRE raid - with her heal on auto....
Falling asleep at many raids (I swear I cannot do a LGTF, because when I get to the Hami part - I get extremely sleepy!).
Watching the chat in broadcast when people would grief other people (like the funniest thing ever said at a raid was when Hank went "Hey, stop griefing my 2nd acct on the rock!").
While it wasn't really amusing for the raid leaders, per se, I did think it was funny that people used to put their pets out, get questioned about it, go "no thats not my pet" and then wander away with their "not my pet" following them closely behind......
Some of the epic conversations in broadcast...
Racing other people to rez the dead....
Thanks, NC Soft, for closing my favorite game ever without warning and with plenty of life still left in it, and thus relieving me of the burden of EVER wanting to buy, try or even hear about another game from your company. Will my decision make a dent, or persuade them in anyway, shape or form? Nope, obviously not. Don't care. NC Soft is dead to me. ~ PsyFox

2. Having the 6-slotted forum smack skillz to cause tree's to fall on peoples houses to avoid a 1 on 1 arena match, and causing certain person to lose their mind and think a valid response to a flame war is to tear off his shirt take photos and proceed to post them on the liberty forums!
