Do you remember when...

[Delsus]

I remember the huge queues to login during the alpha

I remember 5 mins after getting a character made you would DC and be back in the queues in the alpha

I remember being stalked by dodos and goats

I remember the insanly slow UI making doing anything a chore

I remember it taking about 5 secs between hitting an ability and it being used

I remember the aoe cure exploit

I remember having 1 retainer that would depop all the time so nothing got sold,

I remember an sp glitch in alpha that made you hit fategue in 10 mins

I remember looking through the wards for gear was impossible because there was no search

I remember having no hardware mouse

I remember having no graphics options making lower end systems lag hugely (in alpha and possibly closed beta)

I remember loads of posts on forums about people stalking the mail man for thier CE
Need I go on

Do you remember mass Uldah leve failing in large parties for max SP gain with linked and GA? And if you didn't belong to an LS, you were pretty much screwed on keeping up with the masses.

[Sypherblade]

remember when mobs were 1/4 their size?

login one day and the squirrel was the size of your hand....

login the next day and that squirrel could be a lalafell's mount!

HOLY CRAP SOMEONE CALL THE EXTERMINATOR

[Ragz]

Do you remember the days you have to carry 20 stack arrow to grind?

[Picoman]

Remember standing next to someone Harvesting and the items going into your inventory?

Remember the forest of Onion Helms at CE release in the starting instance and not being able to find the NPC to get you out of the instance?

Remember running to Coerthas to find Ishgard to be still closed at launch!

Remember spawn camping the Behest npc and then nobody forming a party?

Remember everyone always attack anything but the RED mobs during Behest?

Remember taking 25mins to NPC 20 items?

Remember the Wards crashing every few hours and the silly names they had?

[Holy_Dragoon]

Remember when there were absolutely no NMs, including Faction NMs.

"it'll get better just wait for new team to get up to speed"
"it'll get better just give it a year"
