Getting tells to come to Perez because a whole team got lost in the trees.
The sewer trial being done very other day
Drive By Buffing the newbies in the Hollows, and NOT getting abuse (Yes it happens, got some real dogs abuse on Friday because I dared to use Adrenalin Boost on someone)
I miss..
The old Heists before Mayhems. I don't have any complaints about Mayhems though, I just love the music in the bank. 
Bloody Bay PvP, generally having people in Bloody Bay.
The feeling of finally getting Hover for the first time on a character, and Hovering EVERYWHERE.
The enjoyment of spending hours and hours and hours at Ghost Widow's tower in Mercy, blowing Arachnos off of it with Telekinetic Blast on my first character, a Mind/Psi Dominator.

The whole Striga Arcs where good fun as well. "Can't we just let them kill that doctor?"
[/ QUOTE ]
I ran, one very quickly after the other, the Striga Arcs with 2 Defenders a while back.
It was a PuG to start but we all got on really well and had a few substitutes along the way. Striga is a brilliant place to play, imo, and underused only in as much as it isn't advertised like the new content is (i.e. there's no - Stephanie Peebles wants to talk to you).
I think that if they re-jigged these missions, instead of just including them in normal contacts (i.e. the 'Go see Gordon Bower'/'Stephanie Peebles' ones from whomever your current contact is) and gave them pop-ups then there'd be a shift of people moving back to these zones which are, to my mind, where I have really learned to play the game. They're also a fun run (from 20-35, if you do Croatoa too) and the story arcs are very engaging.
Back to the OP - I miss TF shout-outs too. One particular shout-out lead to an enjoyable Positron. Yes, that's right, enjoyable!

You can still do them but they tend to be very rare. Just look in the paper for Heists.

High on my list of things I miss this is. I used to ytake my laptop around another players house for these even. They felt like "events". One successful run on the new Hami was enough for me. But the old one, I'd have done to death
"Well, they found my diary today.
They were appropriately appalled
at the discovery of the eight victims
They're now putting it all together.
Women wrapped in silk
with one leg missing
Eight legs, one body, silk,
spider, brilliant!"
I think most have been mentioned already:
The old style Hami raids with constant reminders that a 'no auras and no wings' policy applies.
The Hollows when debt kicked in at Level 5 and there were no raptor packs or Hollows based hospital. The joys of gulch running!
The IoP raids for SG's which appeared for such a short time, the joys of being a part of the swords group that secured an IoP
That wonder of entering a zone for the first time as you have finally reached the level required to do the missions / story arcs

Yeah - I always keep an eye out for them, sucks with the Arachnos high levels though.. Recently got the mp3 of the bank heist mission map from a friend too, man, that tune just makes my head go blank.

Well, Going Rogue may help. Tbh, they said the won't, but revamped zones would be better...
Personally, I miss the days when Hollows had Trolls, Outcasts, CoT and Igneous. No damned Skulls or Hellions! >.<
I miss Pocket D being a bigger RP venue.
I miss my Tankers glory days. I dont know why he feels less so now...
I do miss having Heroes and Villains in every range.
I miss the days before Recipes...
And I actually miss parts of old PvP. My AR/Ice still lost all the time then, too mind...-sigh-
I miss...that warm, happy feeling when they stopped Debt from ruining my playtime

Oh... Old stuff I miss...
Zombie MMs, seems rare nowadays (Red Moon Evil, where did you go?)
Old Hamiraid
Old Mothership raid
CoP
Base Raids
Badge parties, back in the days when badges was still fun
Debt, back when it meant something
Perma-stuff (Hasten, PAs etc, can still get but just too expensive to bother)
..and of course, all those cool, fun players that left due to lack of content and generally dislike of a certain company and their so called customer support.
miss the old SG base system, building a base mean nothing to me any more it so broke and nothing to make me strive for anymore to build anything new

I'll try and trigger a Zombie Invasion tonight by handing in Halloween Salvage. Re: the Mothership Raids - we had one of the best ever yesterday evening where we tore the Rikti to shreds, Great time had by all and the last Great community event now that the poor ole Hamidon event has been left user unfriendly, and seemingly abandoned and irrelevant.
As far as the Devs are concerned Hamidon is fine as it is.
All I can say is I'd like to see their weekly numbers re: player attempts since the redux.

Heh, missed this Friday's raid.
Still, I have to get back to it. Leading the fight with a Sword/Shield Vanguard Colonel, in full kit is nothing short of satisfying.
That, and people always seem happy with the way things go The Master at Arms dies incredibly quick when facing him.
Colonel Lyndon, reporting for war ^^

US players know something we don't? - The game mechanics now for the event is way too complicated to be enjoyed. They've taken the community's most loved event and turned it into somekind of mito-grindfest that has to be organised with machine like efficiency if you are to have the slightest hope of success.
Yeah, Great Job Paragon Studios.
*slow handclap*
[EDIT]: I can think of five, maybe six attempts at Hamidon post-redux, I've been on 2 that have succeeded since the redux. Neither of them were as much fun nor had the wide-ranging diversity of relative newbies alongside Veterans enjoying themselves in the old (larger) group size.
I miss it... a lot.

I think that because it needs a medium large group of people doing specific jobs and working together well, it lends itself better to the US where you might actually get an sg or coalition of 50 odd decent players who all know what to do. Here on the other hand the amount of people who don't know what they're supposed to do let alone whether or not they do it well sully most new hami attempts. In the old one you could get away with having some newbies but the streamlined version is a bit more like those massive WoW trials, everyone needs to be on the ball. That said I don't know if people do it often in the US, but I believe they have far more often than us.
