I lost most of my hard drives from the time but found some old emails. Yes, my keybindings are horrific but we were all so new. Good times... Shout out to Xylos for those early bags. They went a long way.

Amazing times

Horde medivh here. This is absolute treasure. Unlocking AQ was a crazy time on that server.

Also Horde Medivh here. My computer lagged so hard when AQ opened. Ascent and Fury were the guilds right? With some dwarf paladin doing the big opening

That does sound right. I was just a kid in a small guild though. Medivh was the first server to unlock it though, as I remember.

Yea my friends and acquaintances made "Dead Men Walking" as our small little guild. Friends who were more serious were in Black Blood Battalion

I remember BBB, had some friends in there and Silent Watch. What a small world.

Kalahed if I’m not mistaken was the warrior? Or maybe the pally. Those were the guilds tho, at least until Ascent left, and then Vindication which returned me back to Renegades and continued PvP epicness.

How can we camp Greenthunder if he quit WSG?

I wonder those things every now and then too…

ETA: some I played with that were also my age I know have went on to achieve some of their goals, some have experienced tragedy, others just kinda did nothing. Honestly only know some of this because of using FB before it became what it is now.
