Hey guys, Phil here ;) Thought it might be interesting seeing what other basilers come up with. Please, Please, Please none of that "I remember a time when there was less hacking/leeching/better community". Strictly stuff you remember you did when you first started Maple. Stuff for example that puts that little "Aahh, i remember that =]" smile on your face when you're reminded of it. Thank you, and guess I'll start with my personal list: 1) Hunting green mushrooms on top of HHG1 praying to [insert deity of choice here] that a Panlid would drop. 2) Playing a game of chicken by dropping down into the pit of golems on the way to Sleepywood from Henesys. 3) Actually taking the time to go all the way to Jr. Balrog map despite the fact you were too low a level (usually with a friend or two). 4) Land of Wild Boar 1 training. 5) Forest of Golem map being shared on every channel (1 per platform). 6) Mages Tele'ing into Pot Shop Kiosk before DownArrowKey+ALT and impersonating PotShop Owner. 7) Adding X's and Numbers to an IGN despite the availability of the 'clean' version. 8) Rolling the die for close to an Hour just to get 5/4 or 4/4 stats in character creation. 9) Ludibrium PQ (Not Maze). That's all I've got off the top of my head x] Adding some interesting ones from the comments below :] [quote] Munkkisuu : Back then "high" lvl assassins sold haste for 5k.

There was MORE hackers back then. Maplestory had a crappy security system, everyone had hacks back then o-o

i remember when Me and all my friends were afraid to go orbis because we thought that if the " barlog" killed us He was a pirate and he would take our equips/Mesos/ and take 5 levels from us......We were dumb......

Of course you have your own personal freedom of speech, but I woud like to keep this thread on topic for the most part =]

When I didn't know the ship to Orbis had a cabin so I always tried to avoid the c-rog but ended up dying. When ores were just 1k each I used to always go train at this pig place near lith harbor and it was always crowded. And pig heads where quite precious xD

[quote] jklhgfcm : Remember when OPQ entrance was always full of spam, now it's worse than Omega Sector>.< [/quote] I remember when Omega came out, everyone was like OH MY GOD ALIENZ! Then it kinda sucked, minus trying to hunt all the new area bosses. And to be fair, technically there was less hackers, but only because there were not as many players. And honestly that list you gave pretty much pinpoints anything I had lol, minus ACs and glitch OPQ.
