Played 1.0 during Beta and Release. I bought a Gamestop edition that was supposed to come with a bonus and it didn't.
I play the same character and same body parameters that I picked back then.

1.0 Legacy server: Don't remember but it's on Excalibur now.
I come back after content updates. I actually played V1.0 during it's initial free trial and then just kinda gave up because the hardware requirements were too steep. When v2.0 came out I had a decent system but I still wound up replacing the video card. So I didn't resubscribe until this year (before 2.55) when finally I have a usable video card.

/Playtime: ...yea just no...

Played since Early Access Sep 25th 2010
Legacy status. Yes, and I still regard the Legacy Chocobo as my main mount in most places. Unique and irreplaceable.
Exclusives, some seasonal gear and jewelry. I still have all my 1.0 Whm AF gear also that of the Drg, Mnk and Bard. Other sundry pieces of gear, Acton, Scale Mail etc.
Playtime, will have to check bbl ** 424 D 16 Hr 21 min
Same character, never played another. The only alteration is the hair, everything else remains the same.
1.0 Server, started on Fabul before the server merge when it merged with Besaid I think and became Balmung. I still see the odd name or two from those days in DF. Hi Auri, Psudopsia, Fay. Faith and the others. After the merge I spent a month on Aegis before transferring to Ragnarok where I remain.
Why keep coming back, that I will have to think about and update later.

OMG, Hi Faith

[HereticBliss]

Played 1.0: Beta tester
Earned Legacy Account Status: Of course.
1.0 exclusive Items earned: Only ones I consider special are Garlond Goggles, Hermes Shoes, Asuran Armguards, Moonlet, Choco/Gobbue. Dated items are kinda pointless.
/Playtime: Not logged in
Do you still use your 1.0 Character: Yes. Same name.
1.0 Server: Don't remember.
What keeps you coming back: The theme and feel of the game. Colorful, responsive (except my Mudras...) and easy to play. Challenge can be found if I want it, and so can just time killing activities or just-for-fun stuff.

[Shneibel]

Played 1.0: Beta
Earned Legacy Account Status: Why yes
1.0 exclusive Items earned:chocobo, gobbue, moonlet, onion knight helm (might miss some items)
Playtime: 355 days, 8 hours 0 min (as of this post)
Do you still use your 1.0 Character: I had changed the eyes colour to odd eyes and changed hair style, and change the last name. Other than that, I had been cat ppl for 2 years, going to the 3rd year now with HW
1.0 Server: Balmung, I switch to Excalibur in 2.0
What keeps you coming back: I took a break a few months before 1.0 server go down, because I decide not to rush anymore before the last save day and wait for 2.0, so I have never really quit or have intention to quit

[GuiltyBoomerang]

Played 1.0:Beta.
Earned Legacy Account Status:Definitely. Left before experiencing Dalamund dropping though. Came back a few months into release of 2.0.
1.0 exclusive Items earned:Chocobo, Goobue, Moonlet, Onion Knight Helm + Armor Set, some dated gear...and the Wood Wailer's Jacket. One of the few pieces of combat gear with gathering stats.

Do you still use your 1.0 Character: Yes! Only just changed from Mi'Qote to Au Ra. I've lost my cheekiness for a poker face
1.0 Server: Gysahl -> Masamune (2.0) -> Tonberry
What keeps you coming back: The community in-game - after I moved servers it was relatively easy to find new friends to play with...I still feel guilty about not saying goodbye to the people of Thanalan Alliance, TeaCo (with the legendary Thal Icebound and artist extraordinaire Nique/Sa'niquel Amrita [Super Happy Discussion!) and Avan Guardian on Masamune. If you're reading this, I will find a way one day...

[raseol]

Earned Legacy Account Status: yes
1.0 exclusive Items earned: yes, but i dont have it anymore as my 1.0 character was eaten by a drunk marmot

1.0 Server: Karnak -> Excalibur
What keeps you coming back:In 1.0 (esspecially before the december patch of 2010) i could walk into a city or zone and find a random friend. I had a lot of friends that were lost xbox players or playstation players trying to get ahead of the game. Afterwards i got a LS and stayed there actively untill i ragequit in 2.0. Now im back again with (yet another) Ras Gyn
Fun memory: first grinding party ever was with 16 players and we tried to kill lvl25 rats (as lvl10-15)in a gridanian open dungeon..the rats won
