Great thread! Bringing back some memories.

I was in AO on Bristlebane pretty much from inception to PoP when I quit playing. I was a gnome rogue named Stricken.

Some fun tidbits that I'm remembering:

Club Fu formed, or at least got a lot bigger, when a big chunk of AO broke off to join/create it. I remember when Pouty was in AO. There was some animosity but many players in both guilds remained friends. There was a kid down the street from me that was in Club Fu, his brother was the MT for circle of legends, and I was in AO. to my knowledge Meriadoc was the only person with a character in both guilds and actively raided with both (thought not many knew it was him at the time).

Bramel/Troppo was one of the original leaders of AO. he was a wildman who would pull Hate on his enchanter (flawlessly). then realized it would be easier on a monk so he made Vabeker. When Vabaker got banned, he made another monk named Vabtoo and PL'd to 60 in about 4 days. One of the original beards of everquest.

Club Fu was probably the stronger, more organized guild, but AO may have got more dragons due to the fact that they had a lot of euro players and would raid at 4 AM - there was plenty of poopsocking going on, even in kunark and velious, contrary to what people might think. I used to set my alarm and get up and raid super early before school.

Bristlebane was such a fun server. I had good friends in AO, club fu and RoV that I still recall today. Even met a couple irl years later.
I didn't know that Pouty was in AO before forming Club Fu, I just remember Him and Vab didn't get along much. You're right they were probably the most organized. Everyone disliked AO and UK, cause they could snipe targets in the off hours [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Ring of Valor was right up there also. I played a ranger and used to ask Waylander and Arwyen (sp?) for advice a lot coming up. Meriadoc was just an all around good dude, never let pixels go to his head.

Who was the kid down the roads brother that Mt'd in CoL, we had a few? Great thread, bringing back all the memories. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
