Looking for old Sanctuary players

Hey folks! Hope you're all doing well, even though the world is in chaos right now. I know that a lot of older players from Sanctuary have left game, but I know some are still floating around as well. There was a lot that went down in the years before the merge, and today I got to wondering if anyone had ever written out some of the history of our old server. The closest thing I could think of was an old post on the Nefarious forums, but I think that's long gone now. So, if possible, I'd like to make a project of it. I'm sure I'm not the only player that's got a ton of history with this game, and I know for certain others would have an even more interesting story to tell. If there are any players from Sanctuary that would be willing to speak to me on Discord about it, then please let me know! You can find me on Discord at Hijiinx#1337.

I'd include people from Lost City in this as well, but unfortunately I'm far less familiar with the history of your server. I have heard a lot of good stories however, so I think it'd be really cool if someone more equipped for the task could do the same for LC.

I know some people will probably think this is kind of silly, but I think it'd suck to lose the history behind this game to time, if something happens in the future.

    Nanalie (archer) and Kieli (veno) here. Can't remember my other characters lol But I was one of the original players right after beta opened. I started off with The9Kings faction. It's nice to see people still remember the old server. I don't know why but I started looking at this game again. Maybe I'll try to play a little bit again.

    Sorry, been having a super hard time getting Arc to cooperate and let me make contact with you! But I guess it is Arc, so what else is new lol. If you're able, I'd still love to talk. This idea got shelved for a short while, but I'd love to still do it. If you aren't able anymore, but know someone who might be, I'd also greatly appreciate that!

    Yeah, I'd love to hear from you, especially if you're from that far back. If possible, could we speak on Discord or Skype? Doesn't have to be a voice call, just text is fine. I'd just like to find somewhere to speak that's more reliable than Arc.

    I've put together a Discord server to help me try and organize this whole thing. If you're interested and would like a link, please let me know. Thanks!

    I could probably give you a few good stories from ancient Sanctuary times. I've forgotten a good deal of it, but sometimes it just pops up in my head at random.

    This is AO, playing PWI since September, 2009.

    Yeah, I remember you AO! I'd love to talk about it at some point, when you've got the time!​​

    I was Silest there, a Veno, then I went Seeker, been a few names lol can't remember(The one in my sig is old). All I remember is the fall of Nefarious as the big thing that happened there, before that, they used to own the entire map. The other big PVP guild was Legendary.

    I remember that too. But I took no part in any of that guilds. My toon "Nehilenia" used to be first in Contagion, the guild that failed to take Land from Mobs in TW, don't remember which Land it was. But our highest around that time was something about 70 i think. After that I went to Lacrymosa the guild of a friend, which I knew before I played perfect world and then later during 2010 winter events, I went to Breezers and after I left them, I created a little guild for myself "Tsukuyomi". After that I had a break from 2012 to 2015. And after that break, it felt inapporpriate to go play on an NA server, when there is an existing European one. Also none of my friends was playing anymore, so getting back there, would have proven a bit complicated as a shy person. I am not the type of person who announces on worldchat that i am back or ask for a guild or pm someone recruiting. Just not my style.

    But yes, I remember it all. How was it again? Nefarious, Legendary, Outlaw, NWO. Oldies was also there and later came Regicide.

    I used to play on Sanctuary as well. We started when the server opened. I was Lefty(BM) from Legendary and my wife was Valentessa(Cleric)
    I was a marshal in Legendary then.
    There was also another faction that used to control portion of the bottom part of the map~ Shockwave (color green)

    Moved to Dreaweaver - Tideswell.
    Playing a barb this time named BigCojones.

    I didn't do it intentionally.
