Re: Ancient Player Stopping by to say Hello
Well hello there!
I wasn't actually a founding admin. There's a whole pre-Amia-split chapter I wasn't a part of, and Gigaschatten predated me on the admin team post Amia split. There are still a few faces around who were here before me...!

Remember? One server and 72/69 players online (I think that was the maximum player number).
Also, Gigaschatten's Akyss Shaar. Fun times.

Re: Ancient Player Stopping by to say Hello
I'm not "I remember portal rods" old, but I remember when:
-There were five barons with five baronial estates (Raven was the outskirts baron, wasn't she?), but we only ever saw like, 2 of the barons, ever. Like councilers, but each owning a fourth of the city (outskirts don't count!)
-Portals. Everywhere
-When the Shallow Woods was one massive area, with that little cabin with Timmy the rat somewhere in the middle.
-The skull of "Frodo yes that Frodo from Lord of the Rings" in Erok's shop that got passed around as a novelty item for years
-Server-wide shouts from the Cordor Supreme court, which was unlocked and anyone could walk in to "sue" other pcs. It got abused heavily, one of the most nonsensical ones being: "That blue smurf stole my wings" being shouted across the server.
-When Dante wasn't an NPC and his shrine at the top of a mountain wasn't a permanent fixtures.
-When the abyss portal was in the forest of despair

I remember it being nuked from orbit. Wasn't that during DragonEye's forum reign?
But hey, we have the Feedback section, now! And... you know... all of the other subforums.
Re: Ancient Player Stopping by to say Hello
I suppose I'm ancient, so I'll stop by and say hello too.

You can still buy those! One of the Amn merchants in the embassy in Cordor still sells them, I think. But yeah, I remember those too!Emotionaloverload wrote: ↑Thu Jun 28, 2018 4:42 pmI am surprised no one has brought up old school clothing dyes. >.> Maybe that is just the sort of lame thing I would recall.
Re: Ancient Player Stopping by to say Hello
Or that time Trintiren relinquished control of Cordor from Myon at the behest of Vetinari himself.

Re: Ancient Player Stopping by to say Hello
The first stonehold was actually pre split and my Goblin Phill who made furniture for humans was part of it. It was weird for business when cordor exiled all of us and he had an undying hatred for drow "death or freedom" style. He was like my first character, cut him some RP slack, it's not his fault the nomad let him win a dance contest! Lol
EDIT
Sorry I read that wrong. You were not claiming that Ryan was the first to rule it, but tather thst was the time you are from

Re: Ancient Player Stopping by to say Hello
Oh I did! I made a cleric of Lolth who's name I've forgotten. Who became the Matron Mother of the first house for a short while. I -loved- that RP, especially with such awesome other people to RP with. As well as a Drow male monk with that path of extra speed, so he zoomed around with red glowy eyes. As far as how I'm doing, I had a baby! So I've been busy.

I don;t know if you remember but Grendal and raven knocked heads a couple of times back in the days of the banite lightkeep wars. Though we never really had a story going on or anything.

Welcome back!
Player of Lordaryn (Abyss guild boss for a while here. Remember those hunting trips to Red Dragon Isle with Nelyata and you. Those were the times.
I also played a lot with you when you made an alt, Fiunquira? Not sure of the name anymore.
I hope you are doing great in RL!

Re: Ancient Player Stopping by to say Hello
Wren was 24 cleric/ 6 druid or something right? Quite an insane by today’s standard but back then stuff like that was normal.
Re: Ancient Player Stopping by to say Hello
Space Station 13 drew me in - and then something else, and before I knew it I came full circle when I heard NWN:EE had been released and was curious as to whether Arelith still existed. I've seen communities rise and fall in the meantime, and the fact that Arelith is still running (and not doing too bad, by the looks of it) really is something amazing.
Gaelyn will not be returning; he was rolled off because his story was simply finished - though a new assassin may not be out of the question...

Re: Ancient Player Stopping by to say Hello
By my estimation!
Ayin was made after Refestus, yes? And Refestus became (very briefly) the Mayor of Bendir somewhere in the 15-25 AR timeframe. That might be a good ballpark decade for how old Ayin/Amadeo were/are.
edit: also, I take back what I said Cortex. There's a bloody army of old people.

Re: Ancient Player Stopping by to say Hello
Now the days you get yelled at for doing it wrong if you ask for a subpar build.
I remember asking builing advice for my true flame drow I play. How many people sugested I should just play a regular sorc.
Back in those old days if you had a powerbuild you where just PVP trigger happy.
