Favorite moments from P99

[Loke]

For me it has always been the raid encounters you shouldn't have won.

Less than 20 IB engaging and killing Trak while like 50+ TMO watched.
IB dive bombing server first Yael while Ascension (or whatever they were called) watched.
23 FE getting their first VP kill against a 60 man TMO raid back when VP was the wild west

With that last one, TMO was clearly the dominant guild and had been kicking our asses all over VP for months, but that totally made finally getting the kill feel more rewarding.

I also miss aspects of the old socking days. I made a ton of friends in IB when I was in DA because we'd just BS with each other while bored. Learned languages with Bossco, Mellyn, and a bunch of people while crammed into the old safe spot in the PoF fire wall with like 80 other characters waiting for CT to spawn. DA used to do a lot of video chats and browser games while socking, and one night we invited IB folks in and had like 30 people between the two guilds playing pictionary while socking CT. For those of us who just liked friendly competition and didn't buy into the whole guild drama, the raid scene had a pretty awesome sense of community back then.

I think classic raiding here on the whole might be my favorite memory on p99. Raids were smaller, strategies were less developed, rules were less restricting, and most people were pretty awesome.
