Intelligence...oh yes...something graal has lacked since 1.28
i remember Princess, and Angel, and...Xena (aka Contego), and and Asuka, and and Darkman!! And there were tags like {WtF -} and of course {TCN} and {NBK}
Remember, it was hard to play Graal from a 200 mhz Packard Bell

I am only well known on the boards. Special me.

I'm only sorta known on the forums... Though, someone on graal once asked me "Hey aren't you that angel dude?"

Yes it does matter on when you started. The earlier you started, the more you know about the old graal and all the people and all the changes it went through. I started around 1.22 or 1.24 not sure. I remember how much fun I had. The first few days were crazy. People had like 30 hearts and all this stuff. I had 3 hearts. I remember always getting killed. One time I even typed 40 so it showed a 40 over my head so people would think I had 40 hearts. HAHA IT WORKED! Some guys asked me like "who is your master". And I was like "GOD" and stuff. Then I remember when I got my new computer and starting Pking and doing all this crazy stuff with the old BrotherHood, Knights of Templar, Silver Lion, Frost Bite, Gangstas and so. I remember always getting in arguements with NyChris and always screwing around and just talking. Remember when we had that "avalon" hacked npc that shot fireballz and didn't take any arrows. That was awesome. Oh How I miss graal. Don't even say crap like "blah blah blah when you started graal doesnt matter". Seems like the only people who say that are the newbies! Hmph! END!

So, I must be a newbie because I posted that rant? Odd. I wasn't under the impression that posting that would cause someone to call me a newbie. Go on believing I'm a newbie, or whatever you may think of me...I care not. After all, it's just text on a screen.

I'm sort of new. I started in 1.9 or something like that. I liked Graal 2001 how it used to be though! Then all these n00b's startd coming! You had to call police every second for a deal! Now we got stands and **** but I'd trade it all for when I started bringin in mad cash flow! I miss it!

Heh. After I told him I was, he walked around me yelling "fly fly fly" before walking off the screen.

hrm... what I miss about the good ol' days... that would be easy... GServer... I think thats what killed me... the lack of "instant gratification" of being able to see people play on what I make... I also miss knowing there are actually OTHER PEOPLE out there interested in scripting... really every 5/6 people I meet is a "levels person" and the other 1/6 are artists

grim_squeaker_x · #**115** 10-09-2001, 05:15 PM

I'm a stupid newbie

I started in 1.39

Although I do not care and stuff

Lyndzey · #**116** 10-09-2001, 06:48 PM

Gah! Who cares? I'm an oldbie, but I don't think one person on Classic has heard of me. I sometimes mention what it was like in the old days, an unless I am kidding, I don't brag. Let's stop this fighting and talk about the old days instead. I hated it when like one person would have {LEADER OF TGAAFAW}{LEADER OF AHFKLAJGDA}{DAFFA}and so on for about 20 guilds.

konidias · #**117** 10-09-2001, 08:08 PM

I don't know, nor do I care, if I'm an oldbie or not.. I started playing Graal a long time ago, and I don't remember which version because at that time I was a newbie and it wasn't important to know what version you started in..

It would kind of be nice to know the date my account was created though =)

James, why are you letting this ***** use your account?

JubeiSaotomeX · #**119** 10-09-2001, 08:21 PM

amen, Alkaren. In my opinion, there's 3 types of graalian's

1. The confident people who don't care about what others say or do and just act themselves (Like me)

2. The players who copy the previous type in an effort to look good, usually have big ego's and are the biggest posers

3. The so called "Newbie" type, people who you don't notice, eg. SSJ Gohan -lol- [hi my mum is my guild leader] (Men from Men)

a lot of main server players are type 2, while most of the oldbies are type 1. kinda sad, one person says one thing, then the rest copy them like sheep. Looks like too many players have been eating the fruit of the Poser Tree!

Illiterate Ninja: guy
Illiterate Ninja: can you post a special comment just for me?

Illiterate Ninja: "1337 5p34k" is a good example of type 2.

JubeiSaotome: POH!
