Does everyone remember when the New Order was not around to enforce the Code? Those were dark days indeed.

See Bio for isk doubling rules. If you didn't read bio, chances are you funded those who did.

I remember when you had to launch your probes ONE AT A TIME!!!!!!!

I have deliberately developed an air of cynicism that I originally intended to make me appear somewhat louche and caddish but actually comes across as irritable hostility combined with the unspoken threat of sudden violence.....

I remember waking up in the middle of the night to train a new skill.



Having started in 2005, I never did that - whenever I knew a skill would finish in the middle of the night, I switched to a long skill and reenabled the one that would finish at night in the next morning before work (or anytime convenient for me).

But more on Topic, I remember where you had to switch to the regular Keyboard for the decimal sign because on most european Keyboards Settings, the one on the numeric pad didn't work - not so long ago actually, but that made my game sooo much more convient (no sarcasm).

I remember 20 million isk Cap Recharger IIs, the 3 month wait list for a Vagabond, and the NAGA cartel.

I remember the ISS public 0.0 trade station endeavor.

I remember a time before stacking penalties when Armageddons had heatsinks in every low slot.

I remember buying tons of mine BPOs off of the market knowing some day they would be rare collectors items.

I remember Dark Shikari, Hippoking, and the rest of the 23.


I remember being attacked in my Cyclone by an angry frigate swarm in Syndicate. Most were under a month old, none of them webbed me, and I slowboated it 15km to the gate.

This roaming gang of little bees would eventually develop into Goonswarm.

I remember the thrill of solo PvP in low sec: the roam, the hunt and the lack of concern for alt scouts, cynos and smart bombs.

I also remember the first/last time getting ransomed by Tuskers and fighting IT. Good Times.

I shall /thread this now.

I remember:

-Nosferatu always transferring 100% of the capacitor, everyone fit them.
-No cap power relay stacking penalty for shield mods, everyone XL C5-L ravens, apocs, anything they could.
-Dual MWD Cavalry Ravens.
-Dual MWD anything.
-Standard missile launchers could fit 1 Cruise missile, and cruise missiles did full damage regardless of signature or velocity, so kestrels and crows were the best frigate / interceptors hands down.
-Torpedo splash damage, blowing up pods was a certainty if you were torpedoing a ship to death.

And the final blow:

-I remember fitting 250mm railguns onto my armageddon, chaining the best belt NPCs that existed at the time (50k cruisers) and making about3 million isk after a few hours of ratting.

I remember Tutorials that lasted much, much longer and kept the crap questions on Forums to a minimum by weeding out the ADD gits (and I don't mean Advanced Dungeons and Dragons, either).
