It almost worked out that one time... But then the staff line up started sucking, so Thak and I left. It went downhill from there.

Yes, ego, I know. But it's true.

I remember in the summer of 2002 they revived old bravo but it failed because the stupid PWA said that they had to update it. Biggest mistake ever.

Was that the same revive when I remade Scrawby and stuff?

I was re-making Bravo. I could still do it if I had a server and I could be bothered.
anyway, hi, to both of you.

You missed the golden year(s).

In retrospect, I will have to agree with everyone that says that the numerous changes made to Bravo, both internally and externally, are what ultimately led to its demise. To quote a phrase, "don't fix what isn't broken." The playerworld was great as it was to begin with, additions certainly would've been welcome and helpful but changing the entire concept along with going P2P basically removed "Bravo" from Bravo Online.

The community was wonderful. I'd wager that before we decided to change things, we could've very easily competed with Unholy Nation, with regard to playercount and number of recurrent players.

Brandon you and I both know that the major downfall was when MD wanted to make it "modern bravo" but I won't get into that.
The Bravo with the Scrawby Shadowless made was probably the best "re-vamp" ever but no one wanted to continue it... shucks I still play on those levels time to time..

On-topic..

OMG DARKHERO!! Heh... how have you been you like just stopped talking to me on AIM one day and then you changed your screen name.. what's up with that? o_o

Then Brandon and Sky should become the joint Management once again and create Andor/Bravo.

From what I remember when Brandon was manager, he was never online, thus work never got done. ;(

*side note, did anyone ever play Damascus?

There were a few periods of extended absence on my part, but I was manager of Bravo for over 4 years, so that is to be expected.

I wouldn't, either. I think we should do so. I also think we should get Shadowless Warrior and Thak back on board and really show people a thing or two. Let's talk about this, everyone.

*** EDIT: Whoops, don't want to appear as though I'm "counting my chickens before they hatch", this is assuming that Shadowless Warrior and Thak would like to come back, of course.
