Mali Posted August 11, 2017 Report Share Posted August 11, 2017 Viewing this old log, I wonder who among us played who, or if we know of players from long ago that filled these shoes. My character is a bit obvious. Were you playing in 2001? The Central Square of Val Miran [Room 20605] You stand amid the central square of Val Miran. All around you colossal buildings rise up. The smell of commerce is in the air and the citizens of Val Miran bustle with activity. Horse carts haul trade items for sale in the Eastern and Western districts, and travelers and adventurers alike walk the streets in search of new challenges. A massive statue is erected in the center of the square. [Exits: north east south west up] The corpse of Ezion is lying here. A broken heap of broken bones and mangled flesh barely resembling Tanemurah lies here. The corpse of Tanemurah is lying here. A large granite fountain gushes clear water here. A corpse of Malekith riddled with arrows, rests in a pool of its own blood. (Invisible) (Hide) Khylandri is here. (Invisible) Tyrael is here. (Charmed) A blob of ectoplasm slides around on the ground. (Pyramid) Strath is here. (Malignant) (Black Aura) Black Vellum Mists swirl around a Demonic presence here. (Invisible) Copas is here. (Wizi 52) (Incog 52) (Bright Aura) Tamaneril is here. (White Aura) Veloras is here. (Crypticant) The God of Chaos looms before you. (Palison) Surrounded by blinding light, an angelic vision is here (Charmed) A special guard stands here, red with anger. (White Aura) Alome is here. Lalal is here. Comadohn is here. Terrak is here. (White Aura) Jubil is here. (Charmed) (Translucent) A mist of ectoplasm vapor fills the air. (Charmed) A dwarven mercenary is here serving his employer. Fardain is here. A citizen of Val Miran is here. (Charmed) A special guard stands here, red with anger. (White Aura) Raminost is here. (Invisible) (Charmed) A flesh golem stands here to do his master's bidding. (Invisible) Drel is here. (Invisible) Serrata is here. (Invisible) Tanemurah is here. Bakarak is here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celerity Posted August 11, 2017 Report Share Posted August 11, 2017 Of the players here, Alome (elf healer justice leader, i-brake-4-minotaurs, eventually the minotaur warmaster IMM + combat diety, M-something), Khylandri (played by khylandri, elf ninja knight), and Serrata (played by Serrata, human(slith?) thief) are the big names here. I'm guessing this is nearing the end of 1.0, probably Palison's death scene? Maybe spring or summer of 2002. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mali Posted August 11, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2017 So who are Khylandri, Serrata, and IB4M now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fool_Hardy Posted August 11, 2017 Report Share Posted August 11, 2017 How many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie roll pop? FTR, I am not on that List. Think I know who played one of them, but he lost his mind several months ago with a complete forum meltdown, and frankly we haven't heard anything out of him in some time. Miss you brother, if your trolling, come back home. Always wondered who @Malchaeius played before he ascended, could he be on the list, or was he already an angel back then like yourself?

Fool_Hardy Posted August 11, 2017 Report Share Posted August 11, 2017 minotaur warmaster IMM + combat diety, M-something)........ Dangit. @Zavero Come on man I know it was a long time ago but you know this one. You introduced him to me in the other place, he helped you talk me into coming here. Edit. Remember we thought it was so cool he was the Imm over you know both cabals, WM and WL, called him the Universal God of War. Dangit! Names I have seen too many.

Tantangel Posted August 11, 2017 Report Share Posted August 11, 2017 I think that may be from 2000 because Palison wasn't around by the time I started playing and I believe that was sometime around April or May of 2001 when I was a Sophomore in High School. I kind of wish I knew what logging was even back then because I like to go back from time to time to check out those lists. The earliest I have is like 2007.

Zavero Posted August 11, 2017 Report Share Posted August 11, 2017 I don't remember back that far @Fool_Hardy. I do remember several of those names after seeing them. I am sure @Mindflayer remembers. Code64 would prob know. Pretty sure he was killed in a car accident though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tantangel Posted August 12, 2017 Report Share Posted August 12, 2017 Back then the WM Imm was Athaekeetha? I think. I'm not 100% on that. I don't believe any of the current staff have been Imms since the beginning, the oldest being Anume circa 2005ish? Eshaine before I believe. Chayesh I'm pretty sure I know who he was, but I don't believe he has really played for a very long time. Many Imms were pretty easy to deduce who they were before by the simple fact that their old forum handles stopped being used and their new handles arose only after their player handles slowed or stopped completely. I wouldn't expose them by any means, but sometimes I think it would be pretty nifty to find out how correct I was about who they were and if they still played. I don't hold grudges and people who can't get over past instances could learn to grow up, but knowing how some people's minds work, this is the very reason why I wouldn't do so. So instead here's a who list from my earliest log I can find.

Mali Posted August 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2017 Athaekeetha was a cool player. He was pretty much out the door back then and just would pop in to give encouragement. My favorite Imm to date was Mircea. Just incredibly fun to be around and knew how to turn something and make you see it a new way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F-3000 Posted August 14, 2017 Report Share Posted August 14, 2017 Not on any of the lists, no big suprise. I always miss those lists for some odd reason. My first near 50s was Xfegrosh, gnome psionicist. I'll spill my whatever I'll have at hand next if someone actually recognizes that name - without mixing to the "copycat" who had rather very similar name at the same time (created later than my character). Not sure if it was Xfegrosh whom I made it with to the #1 spot in the "top online hours" with something very unhealthy. That list which was on the site, later removed as it "promoted bad playing habits by making players to compete for spent online-hours". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F-3000 Posted August 14, 2017 Report Share Posted August 14, 2017 3 minutes ago, Magick said: You mean this Xfegrosh? Too bad I don't remember him. *Gasp* Yes, that one. Dont feel bad, I must admit that I don't recognize any of the names on that list (other than my own). I still remember that moment when I was in the cloud city, which was located between Val and (now) Maelbrim (I enjoyed that place, especially due to the cheap fruits (pills) with several curative effects), minding my own business with my friend(s?) at the first shop at left side, when someone came in, looked at me, walked out, then walked in and lag-lock slaughtered me. Quote There are 45 characters on, the most on since startup was 53. Holy sheep, I want those days back. Then I'd propably partake PK again. With less trashy playstyle, though. (If someone remembers Citonnea (elf thief purity-zealot trap-happy pit-camper), knows what I'm talking about.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magick Posted August 14, 2017 Report Share Posted August 14, 2017 That was posted January 2002. The main reason I don't recognize the name (any name) or have my own on there myself, is that I was a little without internet at that point, wouldn't for another year or so. With the exception of the birth of my son about that time, it wasn't exactly a happy time of my life. I remember the Cloud Kingdom back then. With Ares stomping me as easily as he did. And I think I was bash-locked at that vendor, too. Good times. The good news is that the area is still connected (though slightly modified). Just moved between Maelbrim and Ralardia.

Fool_Hardy Posted August 14, 2017 Report Share Posted August 14, 2017 40+ active players, is what about 280+ active characters? While I miss the excitement, I likewise remember the frustrations. Crashes, OOC Vendettas, Lack of Rares, did I mention Crashes because they happened a lot? But there is a trick to those numbers... I would bet that 30+ of those players still play, they just are not playing here. While the administration has done a lot over the years to polish our little world, those players have no way of knowing. Perhaps more up-to-date reviews for the various top mud sites would be a start, maybe even a "player reviews" thread or section here on the forum.
