Dawts Interstellar Brotherhood of Gravediggers Privateer Alliance	Posted - 2009.08.25 18:28:00 - [31] Is this really the forum for flashbacks. Snype.
Zhilia Mann	Posted - 2009.08.25 21:05:00 - [32] Originally by: Footoo Rama not being able to warp to 0 on gates... You mean back when you had to manage thousands of bookmarks per region just to get around? Yeah, actually I do too. Those things were actually interesting commodities. Also, though nothing new here: Working damps 5 heavy Myrm Omnipresent HM Ferox Admittedly overpowered EOS The time before rigs
Bronnwynn Minmatar Cobalt Dragon Exploration Company	Posted - 2009.08.25 21:30:00 - [33] Originally by: Artemis Rose Killing nano HACs by using overheated webs on T1 cruisers No. Fail. Overheating is new. Good old days= RMR.
Frobos Weird Cat Research Zombie Alliance	Posted - 2009.08.25 21:33:00 - [34] Combat logs in notepad before killmails came around. Talk about tedious!
Saint Lazarus Spiorad ag fanaiocht	Posted - 2009.08.25 23:42:00 - [35] Originally by: Zhilia Mann Originally by: Footoo Rama not being able to warp to 0 on gates... You mean back when you had to manage thousands of bookmarks per region just to get around? Yeah, actually I do too. Those things were actually interesting commodities. WTZ to me is the worst thing CCP ever did, every other change I got over, some were good, bad, most were nessecary. But WTZ was a terrible solution to the BM problem. But yeah what can ya do...whining just makes me a ***! but I do really miss those days, made the whole universe seem 1000 times bigger. The chase to the station when WT's were around, the preparations with the instas before any trip through low sec, the LESS dangerous camps that stopped you leaving not insta popped you on the way IN XD -----------------** My EvE Comic
BaliAgha Gladiators of Rage Wildly Inappropriate.	Posted - 2009.08.26 00:02:00 - [36] Who remembers when we were able to stack MWD's : ) .. 30,000 m/s anyone? Who remembers when Battleships were the top of line? Who remembers when the Apoc's were the best ships to mine in? Who remembers when there was no such thing as 'Warp to 0km'? (not that long ago..) --------- --------- [GLD] Gladiators of Rage -WI- Wildly Inappropriate Alliance

I didn't mind the having to run away and 15km of doom things, but the tedius traveling...

I didn't mind the having to run away and 15km of doom things, but the tedius traveling... It at least meant that the speed of ships meant SOMETHING outside of combat.... I remember having to choose between more cargo expanders or more overdrives :D now with wtz indys speeds are utterly irrelevent -----------------** My EvE Comic

I remember having to choose between more cargo expanders or more overdrives :D now with wtz indys speeds are utterly irrelevent I can't help but think there was a better solution than WTZ.

Dont let people make BM's within 20k of stations or gates, simple as. Theres no reason to be able to People are always going on and on about how instas were killing the game that WTZ saved it but it was just a poor solution to a bad problem, not the only solution....just the one they went with. A "solution" that didnt get rid of the problem just literally gave in to it.... ----------------- My EvE Comic

A "solution" that didnt get rid of the problem just literally gave in to it.... people would just put bookmarks 100km away from the gate, and warp to 100. SO remove all bookmarks 100km from stuff? meh. I miss the days when t2 ammo was useful outside of sniping. Oh yea, then they nerfed sniping by reducing the range bonus. Originally by: Akita T Seriously ? ...wow... I'm such a forum ho' !
Thingymawotzit	Posted - 2009.08.26 05:46:00 - [42] Edited by: Thingymawotzit on 26/08/2009 05:47:28 I miss the OLD curse. The OLD curse could do this - - 7000m/s - Suck opponent dry - Lay down enough dps to kill a bs - Maintain cap easier - Outrun drones - Use damps and not TD's so you are immune to all ships even the missile ones That thing was the wtfpwnmobile. Also myrm with 5 heavies. Although myrm is still good but ppl are ignorant.
Amalinze Tehkat Ministry of War	Posted - 2009.08.26 07:05:00 - [43] Edited by: Amalinze Tehkat on 26/08/2009 07:05:22 I miss the time when: - That ship I used was unstoppable - Moving between systems took forever (even the damned tutorial suggested insta BM's to save time...) - There was a ship that was bigger than all the others - Not everyone could afford the ship that was bigger than all the others - Missileboats were 100% removed from pvp. - Fights were over in 20 seconds or less. - There was but 1 correct way to fit each ship. In the event that fielding said ship didn't get you laughed at. - That fit required 25 mil SP. Also 250 mil isk. - Don't have those things? GTFO
Typhado3 Minmatar Ashen Lion Mining and Production Consortium Aeternus.	Posted - 2009.08.26 07:18:00 - [44] typhoons with a large projectile range bonus. ------------------------------ Just a crazy inventor ccp fix mining agent missions % pls

Dahlia Houghton DarkStar 1 GoonSwarm	Posted - 2009.08.26 08:39:00 - [46] Edited by: Dahlia Houghton on 26/08/2009 08:39:39 Originally by: quygen Edited by: quygen on 26/08/2009 07:51:22 Armageddon setup. 5% Rate of Fire Bonus High 7x Megapulse's II - Multifrequency L Med 3x Sensor Boosters II Low 7x Heat sink's II No stacking No extra HP on all ships Pray for a lock at the gate...

Rouge Drone	Posted - 2009.08.26 08:54:00 - [47] 15 drone ecm domis and 7 heatsink geddons. Really though I just wish that propulsion modules weren't so mandatory these days. I never liked that style of fitting.
Greig Tarkunderson	Posted - 2009.08.27 05:34:00 - [48] Possible solution to WTZ/Bookmarks: Make bookmarks and warping imprecise. Warp-to-anything should be 15-20km off the mark in a random direction. Also, make ships targetable (and able to target) while decelerating from warp.
Qui Shon	Posted - 2009.08.27 06:12:00 - [49] When space was actually "space" and not so **ing overcrowded. Oh wait I'm too "young" to have seen much of that, snif. Well, at least I got a taste of what it could be like before WH's became so **ing overcrowded and pos'd up. What we got now ain't space, it's an urban ghetto.

Wideen Warped Mining Strip Mining Club	Posted - 2009.08.27 11:33:00 - [52] I miss warp to 15km per standard.. oh wait
BiggestT Caldari Amarrian Retribution	Posted - 2009.08.27 11:54:00 - [53] Edited by: BiggestT on 27/08/2009 11:54:26 Originally by: Gypsio III I miss my missiles doing no damage to all targets faster than 4 km/s. Oh wait no I don't. This man has it right. People complaining about missiles now have no idea.. EVE history t2 precisions

Pyr8 Apocalypse Enterprises Chain of Chaos	Posted - 2009.08.27 13:20:00 - [55] Torp Blackbird ftw!
B1ade Amarr Space Repossession Company	Posted - 2009.08.27 14:53:00 - [56] Originally by: BaliAgha Who remembers when we were able to stack MWD's : ) .. 30,000 m/s anyone? Who remembers when Battleships were the top of line? Who remembers when the Apoc's were the best ships to mine in? Who remembers when there was no such thing as 'Warp to 0km'? (not that long ago..) now apoc mining i do remember and the stupidly high cost of harvester drones as they were all sl;owly blown up by people who couldnt afford them... al good fun, but yeah the image of 20 apocs floating round veld rocks is always good, if only i had a screenie...... _______________________________________________ =Fortune Favours The Bold= _______________________________________________
Drek Grapper Minmatar	Posted - 2009.08.27 15:39:00 - [57] I was a noob in the days when the Tempest kicked ass..Gd i always wanted one of those beasts... Now...not so much. -- "If itÆs true that our species is alone in the universe, then IÆd have to say that the universe aimed rather low and settled for very little"* George Carlin
Guillame Herschel Gallente NME1	Posted - 2009.08.27 18:42:00 - [58] Originally by: BaliAgha Who remembers when Battleships were the top of line? I remember when cruisers were top of the line. I remember when buying a cruiser BPC and building it was a task for your whole corporation. I remember being the guy in the corp who had Gallente Cruiser skill and Drone Interfacing IV (so I could field 9 drones) so I got to fly it, but then I got blown up in the corp's Exequror which 6 or 7 people had spent a week putting together. I believe it was in 5ZXX-K system. Was very surprised to get jumped by blinky red pirates, since nobody but us were usually in that area of space. -- The crazy tree blooms at every moment of liberal ascendancy.
Axearm Thunk'um	Posted - 2009.08.27 19:18:00 - [59] I miss the good old days before I was hooked on eve. Biking, brewing beer, running, cooking meals. Ah well.
Gort Minmatar Storm Guard Elite	Posted - 2009.08.27 21:32:00 - [60] Cruise missile Blackbirds... when CM's actually worked. -- When in doubt, empty the magazine.
