It's been a long road here for many 1.0 players. I like these kind of threads and if anyone would like to get involved, I'm sure there are some hilarious things to be said.
Back in my day, we thought Urianger was evil.

Back in the days... we threw stones at Ifrit to stun Hellfire!
... we didn't stun eruption.
... only leveled off coblyns.
... guesstimated AoE radius.
... were excited to see notorious monsters.
... we feared being spotted/smelled/heard by monsters higher level than us.
... lopped off the tails of lizards, cracked crab shells, crippled dodos, and broke the horn off of goats and even Ifrit. -

Back in the day, it took a few weeks to hit level 50 and we loved every minute of it....even ground through the fatigue. Can you imagine the tears and tantrums if it took that long now....

Back in my day.... Classes were utterly worthless once you unlocked Jobs and they weren't meant to be...
Oh wait, that's still the case... -

Back in my day....
The game was barely even playable due to a laggy/poorly designed interface.
The world may have been seamless and the graphics technically sharper but the world was a lifeless copy/paste mess.
One of the most moronic things I've ever seen in an MMO, the fatigue system, prevented you from working on leveling the class you wanted to level.
There was literally no content to speak of and leveling consisted of a couple levequests here and there and killing crabs for hours. Endgame? What's endgame?
There were some tracks I wish were still in the game today (old Limsa theme and "Twilight Over Thanalan"). The music and graphics were probably the only ups about the game.
Thank you Yoshi-P for bringing a "New Day" to Eorzea, it's come such a long way and it's not perfect but it's miles better than what we had "back in my day". -

Shield (Sentinel) was its own class and I had it capped before anything since it shared with GLA, THM and CNJ.

Back in my day, Shield skill had a dedicated ability that you had to activate in order to block anything ("raise your shield") and you had to wait for it to expire before you were allowed to do it again.
Back in my day, people were generally scared of any levequest involving imps.
Back in my day, we rang bells for every holiday. No exceptions. -

Back in my day, parties were capped at 15. You could ride, fish and craft a few things on the ferry before it docked- and LL looked awesome as you approached its docks on a stormy night! :D
