When was your first experience with Everquest?

Agreed. And this was many many years ago..... now a days she would have called the cops. The kid would have to register as a sex offender. And she would have sued SoE.

Lol, dont get me wrong....no one deserves to be groped by nerds, i guess.....unless your into that thing.

First experience was a Dark Elf of some sort... he was an int caster.

I ran into Nektulos forest, excited to begin my world conquest but having no idea what to do. I watched another player running in circles around the log directly outside of Neriak, so I figured that's what you're supposed to do.

I spent a good 10 minutes running in circles there, not realizing he was just pathing funny because he had gone LD.

From there, some trial and error, spending my first few weeks trying to level in Nektulos and EC, until I discovered that DRUIDS could KITE AAAAAND SoW themselves?!

Alas, young Tildadar was born. He was my first real main until Kunark was released, at which point I began boxing and PL'ing my new main, Denizzen Squirrelbeater, name inspired from my first real guild (who were wonderful people) - the <Denizens of Shez'Baernon>, the scourge of Cabilis who became the infamous "Mank" of Quellious.

Loved loved loved loved playing EQ. Life is much different now and I can't sit still for 12+ hours at a time to stay ahead of everyone else... but I still thoroughly enjoy p99.

I'd say the main thing I miss, is this one other Wood Elf Druid named Squal or Squall. He was from the "gan guild" and spoke little to no English, and was my Tildadar's arch nemesis. We leveled at the same time, camped the same drops, and literally always ran into each other. We trained each other into the ground, KS'ed each other left and right, competed against one another in EC Tunnel for flipping items for plat, etc. etc. etc. Never petitioned each other cuz we both had the "I AIN'T NO BITCH" mindset, and just enjoyed the competition. Good times...
