Everything has its beginnings, but it doesn't start at one. It starts long before that... The world is born From zero. The moment zero becomes one is the moment the world springs to life. One becomes 2. 2 becomes 10. 10 becomes 100. taking it all back to one solves nothing. so long as zero remains... One.. Will eventually grow to 100 again.

    lmao NO shops around the forges, nice times those were. XD

    I miss many things. I miss Venos being useful. I miss the balance of pre-fish expansion. I miss players being kind and understanding to eachother (though, to be honest, they still are, just less... Friendly, dunno how to really put it so anyone would understand).

    What I don't miss is being completely solo. I went solo from level 1 to level 65. I don't miss staying in the dark about molds, legendary gear, and refines. I'd probably be endgame now if I had refined my gear or gotten something other than vendor trash back then. >_>

    And a handful of other alts, all 79 and under.

    I miss doing instances for the fun of it, getting into squads and having fun while running one.
    Now it's get in with 4aps+ and gtfo fast and leave squad with out ever saying a word or a bye. :/

    Things used to be more friendly/fun then they really are now.

    I miss the abundance of barbs. When I say barbs, I mean the ones that uses axes without even thinking about statting for fists.

    Looking for a signature for this character. Wanna make me one?

    Lol also miss thinking that a veno was the most godly creature in game.
    That TT gear was flipping amazing and anyone who has TT gear with 2+ sockets was a god.
    Still laugh when i think back on how bms who used fists were laughed upon, then again back then the cap level wasn't set to 105.

    I have one of those. He's level 26. And unless they actually fix aggro skills so that character would be useful at endgame, he's never gonna get leveled past 80.

    On topic, what I miss the most ? Having to sell your kidney to even get rank 8. Now, every cash-shopper, most non cash-shoppers and their grandmas can afford it. It's friggin' ridiculous.

    It's mildly amusing that archers used to be considered THE super badass pvp class and venos (with nix of course) were the "rich persons" pvp char.

    I still remember about people complaining on the 'new day' message. When it was removed, they started to cry. Go figure.
    And as others said, people tend to welcome with both surprise and great joy any random messages from GMs. We need more of that these days.
    Maintenance time. Please choose a line:
    - When is it over? OMG I need my fix!! *super spazzing*
    - Fix the damn bugs, dammit! I'm so angry! I'll quit!!
    - New codes out there? I like free stuff~ *wink*
    - When will we get new content? QQ
    - Will we get sales? I got a ton of gold to spend.
    - I'm bored, I'll create a useless thread to annoy Opkorock.
    - *Incessant poking on Sweetiebot* Fun~

    But yea, it's human nature to constantly strive for more. Anyone who claims to be satisfied with what they have are lying.

    I don't normally partake in these kind of discussions, because change is inevitable and that's how I look at it, but I remember when I was deciding on rolling an archer or a BM, and my friend told me to roll a fist BM because they were cool like archers but less squishy. So I did, and everyone was like WTF because fist BMs were not cool back then and very, very rare. I quit her at level 72, for lack of good interval (and thus dmg).. If only I had kept her. b:surrender

    I -was- going to post something, then I got stuck in a loop, watching your signature dance. This happens every time I go into a thread where you've posted. b:chuckle

    Seriously though, I wish I had been on PW back when people were more social and nice. I'm not always sunshine and butterflies but it seems like there's 0 loyalty in the game unless someone wants something from you. b:surrender So glad I manage to have a group of friends who aren't like that.

    what i miss

    -that people had time for each other. now its only about dailies dailies dailies. people doing only the same over and over fast fast fast and over again.

    -more friendly and smarter comunity. the stupidity in this game grows and grows and not many real gamers left. the fault of easy mode pwi with new fcc, hypers, bhs and all that.

    -people who know their classes better. a long time back people were forced to stay a long time on a level but that made them better players and made it more enjoyable to play together. you had alot time to try everything out.

    -balance. the game perhaps was never perfectly balanced but the curent state is disgusting.

    -the time when 5 aps or interval gear was not really known by anyone (i think that madness started last year in early spring)

    -the time when the game was not totally overloaded. don't want to know how new player feel when starting here. leveling too fast and facing in a few weeks game content to what we could get used over 2 and a half years patch by patch, month by month.

    -when every class was somewhat usefull for a team effort


    there is alot more but meeh. although i still love this game, i get since quite a while more and more unsatisfied with it. good to know that i am not alone with that.
