Chat logs!

So, as part of settling in after a move, I'm going through... stuff. Lots of stuff. Including CDs with old data.

... such as old COH screenshots.

And chat logs. (Yes, I do tend to log stuff... habit since in game stuff leads to writing.)

I find some of my newb comments to (and from!) friends at the time rather amusing after all these years... ahh, the awe the Zig inspired...

Here's a system exchange that should bring back memories... or maybe shudders:

04-15-2005 22:19:42 [Team]Kamre: <color #010101>sk therra for most happy time
04-15-2005 22:19:55 <bgcolor red><color white>I'm too far away for my mentor to help me!

04-15-2005 22:21:45 My mentor is assisting me again.
04-15-2005 22:21:48 [NPC]Chief Smasher: You're a waste of a life.



04-15-2005 22:28:50 <bgcolor yellow>I'm getting a little too far from my mentor.
04-15-2005 22:28:51 <bgcolor red><color white>I'm too far away for my mentor to help me!
04-15-2005 22:28:55 [Team]Therra Arcson: <color #ff9b6b><bgcolor #01541f>Main problem being that one of Snow's jumps takes her out of SK range.
04-15-2005 22:29:27 My mentor is assisting me again.


Important stuff to know:

04-15-2005 02:40:28 [Broadcast]Song: <color #010101><bgcolor #0101ff>anyone know the location of science SO's?

Old suggestions... and complaints:

04-15-2005 02:41:30 [Local]Rocuryu: <color #ffff01><bgcolor #0101ff>my only thing is they should have random events, like evasions and bank robbers to keep the game spontaneous
04-15-2005 02:41:48 [Local]Rocuryu: <color #ffff01><bgcolor #0101ff>but its just an idea ^_^
04-15-2005 02:41:51 [Local]Therra Arcson: <color #ff9b6b><bgcolor #01541f>Yeah, that'd be nice... something besides "dodge someone else's ambush."
04-15-2005 02:41:59 [Local]Rocuryu: <color #ffff01><bgcolor #0101ff>lol
04-15-2005 02:42:08 [Local]Agent Snow: <color #ffffff><bgcolor #010101>yeah, i haven't seen any bank robberies
04-15-2005 02:42:11 [Local]Therra Arcson: <color #ff9b6b><bgcolor #01541f>Since they tend to be 10-20 levels higher than me, so far!
04-15-2005 02:42:23 [Local]Rocuryu: <color #ffff01><bgcolor #0101ff>tell me about it. i have a blaste alt and she has nothing but debt because of those

Obviously Issue 4:


04-15-2005 02:54:14 [Local]Nanomi Flux: <color #ffffff><bgcolor #ff0101>can't wait to se you at the arena
04-15-2005 02:54:24 [Local]Therra Arcson: <color #ff9b6b><bgcolor #01541f>She does great. I die and watch.

Fascinating things coming up a few levels away:

04-15-2005 18:53:26 [Tell]Kamre: you're gonna love getting to level 25, you get to do your title again and you get a new row of inspirations

... and stuff to avoid for now:


04-15-2005 18:55:45 [Tell]Kamre: have you been to brickstown before?
04-15-2005 18:56:19 [Tell]-->Kamre: Yeah. As I recall, poked in to look around, and ran right back out. Little too big for me.
04-15-2005 18:56:56 [Tell]Kamre: i ended up on a team that took me there today, there's a huge prison there where you fight inmates

.... ok, I could be whiny.


04-15-2005 22:00:46 [Tell]-->Agent Snow: Which badge?
04-15-2005 22:01:13 [Tell]Agent Snow: Keeper of Secrets
04-15-2005 22:01:21 [Tell]-->Agent Snow: What's that one for?
04-15-2005 22:01:28 [Tell]Kamre: hehe did snow tell you what you JUST missed?
04-15-2005 22:01:31 [Tell]Agent Snow: We killed Adamastor
04-15-2005 22:01:42 [Tell]Agent Snow: a twenty foot zombie
04-15-2005 22:01:58 [Tell]-->Agent Snow: *whine* Right in line with my character, too.....

Debt actually mattering and being a topic of conversation:


04-15-2005 22:08:37 [Team]Kamre: <color #010101>i was kidding about the totems lol
04-15-2005 22:08:42 [Team]Agent Snow: <color #ffffff><bgcolor #010101>only if they hit you...
04-15-2005 22:08:56 [Team]Kamre: <color #010101>i'd rather do something easy i'm already in debt through my next level
04-15-2005 22:09:20 [Team]Therra Arcson: <color #ff9b6b><bgcolor #01541f>I've only got two bubbbles worth to work through

Mah Noobiness again, heh:

04-15-2005 22:11:53 [Team]Therra Arcson: <color #ff9b6b><bgcolor #01541f>Saw my first warwolf today


And some things just don't change:


04-15-2005 23:12:34 [Team]Agent Snow: <color #ffffff><bgcolor #010101>at least we aren't wasting infl on our costume colors today... yet

Evasions!!!!!!

We've been saving Paragon City for eight and a half years. It's time to do it one more time.

Yeah, had to leave that in after the "too far! Back! Too far! Back!"

Great capper. You can almost hear the sneering "dum.bass" under his breath.
