Wow, now that was a really long read. But I guess you can say a very interesting history of Albion Guilds here.

Melrah radared.


Actually, I have no idea if he did, I'm just trying to start some drama.


Who was that other Enigma bard that ran away leaving his group behind if they were losing a fight?

"We actually were the first 8man to utilize mid pbae, v23 just took it to emain."


We started leveling our Supp SMs the day after they added pbae to SMs. I don't see how you can claim to be the first to utilize it without already having SMs to respec. And there weren't many SMs at all back then til we came.


Good post Ash. One day I'll throw in my daoc life story and cause some drama. o.O

PS. Nobody beat original v23 8v8 when I was on my healer. KotWW may have won after I got burnt out playing support and let BK takeover Tenrec for awhile.

I'm glad I check in these boards every once in awhile for threads like this.


Sometimes I miss playing DAOC, but then again I think if I came back it wouldn't be the same, sorta like when you play your favorite NES game now.


But I will say that the March to November 2004 when Silence was in full 8v8 effect was probably my favorite online gaming period ever. <3

A few comments.


TCO -

[Phos] - ALL CLERICS TARGET ME~!


I was in Paradox before I went to TCO, and went back after TCO fell apart (see phos/catarene incident).


Thus the start of the friar craze, and the time of Ninjac. (which is most important).


Also, post that, the Gallandra/Atilla "incident", and eventual decline of Paradox. Paradox certainly let anyone in the guild or in DOTC group, and we tried to make larger groups --> 2-3fg.


"

Along with this new resurgeance, a former zerg overlord decided to try his hand at this '8v8'. Ahamade (aka Xiem) had left <TCO> before <The Feared> was formed and joined <Paradox>. dox/DoTC started running 8man groups, though they didn't adhere to strict 8 much at all back then, though they did attempt it, and it was a start of something.

"


We ran 8 a-team with b-team fills, and on busy nights and keep takes we certainly ran the whole guild together.


Anyone who played some in paradox went to <Dark Valor>.

<Dark Valor> had an "incident", thus <Recoil> was born.


The whole point is there was a hell of a lot of alb/lance drama.


Alb/lance has all the drama.


Also <The Feared> - "We invented the RA dump." <-rofl
