Favorite oldskool memories of mine.

Setting up linkshell events to farm coffer keys and testimonies for people because you actually needed a full party or mini alliance.
Taking the airship a million times a week to buy khazam peppers at the npc and resell them in Jeuno.
Stopping exp because you couldn't make money fast enough to buy equipment or scrolls.
Having everyone go "OMG you have Phalanx?!?!" as a 30something RDM.
Dying to exoray trains in Crawler's Nest.
Spending levels 34-52 in Crawler's Nest.
Getting eaten by Guiver because you didn't realize that he wasn't true sight.
Begging people to come raise you while Guiver was up because a homepoint meant that your last exp session was hardly worth it.
Thinking 3k/exp per hour is good.


amen to all of those

hmm, i think the most important old school sign:

When you have no clue why some of these "old school signs" are old school. What, do you guys not level at Crawlers nest anymore? Comon, who doesnt kill dahlmels for xp? What the fuck, was kraken club ever above 20mil?

haha... this thread reached legendary status for me. the memories are really nice.

yea dude, i feel the same way..

then again, the interaction between people in those two games are completely different.. ffxi you relied on others to get you anywhere. WoW you kinda just stick to yourself..

eventhough alot of people hated each other, it just seemed a tighter community in ffxi.

It's because the game grabbed you by the balls and forced you to be social.

That, and usually if you had a character on a server, you and your mules will STAY ON SAID SERVER. IN WoW everyones all over the place with easy transfers making it hard for people to gain server wide rep.

Yeah thats why ninja looters in WoW are so infamous. Hell you have people ninja looting shit in lowbie instances in WoW on shit that they would have no use for lol. They can just pay to get their character transfered and their reputation as a ninja looter will not be known on the new server.

your old school if

-You Remember When people Killed Dhalmels for exp in Tahrongi at lvl 15
-You got avatars before the lvl 20 fights were released and then summoned on in the dunes and noobs yelled "OMG RUN AWAY GIANT MAN IN A THONG"
-You did your AF3 in a full alliance because NA 75s were practiclly non-exsistant
-you remember camping behemoth alone (i mean the whole zone empty maybe a few JPs but deffinatelly no other NAs) just to see him and then getting owned by meteor cause KB popped
-you remember when leaping lizzy boots were only 150k
-you remember when kraken club was only 20mil
-you remember getting owned by mobs way to strong for your 3 man lvl 10 PT cuase you couldent remember if VT or IT was stronger
-you remember when getting an advanced job was a big deal
-you remember the ORIGINAL Hokuten
-you can name the leader of the freind LS
-you were ever in the Freind LS
-you know what the freind LS is
-you remember being level 30 on foot and seeing half a zone run away in la theine and then getting owned by a big ass ram and that ram would stay up for a good 3-4 hours
-you remember when RDMs had cure V


god i could go on for hours... the good ol times lol, feel free to add to the list
