Description: I'll never forget camping and getting the drop from Noble Mold back when we had no idea what its spawn conditions were... Incidentally before I got the Rain Hat drop I lost claim because I wanted to take a screen shot of it unclaimed (that was a thing back then) and someone tagged it under my nose.

Description: In 2005 you rarely ever saw Sarutabaruta taken by any city, Windy was almost always in the conquest lead. This was when you had to walk and ride Airships so it took a long time to get around. SO when Sandy finally took it, i couldn't run my legs to the outpost fast enough. Hop on an outpost teleport and back to Windy I went. I also bought all their nasty, little, tiny conquest items to boot. ;)

Title : Stay in your line =)
I'm very impressive the first day of Follower quest is up in server. People so excitement on doing this quest. So you can imagine how many ppl will gather in quest ???. If it happen today you will see only crowned ppl who try to keep check ??? for start their own quest. But back to that date people make a queue and step in one by one to do it. Even got someone just ignore this but it still impressive that most of ppl just wait for their queue. Don't think something like this will happen again XD

Description: My first dungeon experience in Final Fantasy XI - King Ranperre's Tomb. The image of a set of ancient and weathered stairs leading down to unknown mysteries, created a feeling that was both foreboding and captivating in equal measure. This was amplified by the shift in music, from the San d'Oria theme that invoked a sense of shelter and order, and the Ronfaure theme that captured the early excitement of adventure, to an area that now didn't have any music but merely ambient sounds, where I could only hear the wind, my own footsetps, and loud, thudding noises in the distance of unknown origin.

Description: Nuking puddings at Mt.Z to finish off the solo leveling adventure on BLM back at 75 cap. This adventure took me all over Vanadiel blowing up innocent little gobbie pets and finally ending with melting down puddings. Bonus points for teaching me that black pudding is a UK dish aka blood sausage, which prepped me for a future experience while traveling!

Description: Many, many moons ago, I remember exploring Gusgen Mines for the very first time.. Very creepy atmosphere, the ghost children popping up out of nowhere were sad and surprising, plus a horde of undead things wander the tunnels... The lack of music compounded the creepiness further and put me a bit on edge, but I could handle that.
Then the siren went off and I think I tasted my heart. ._.;;
