My first server was 88 back in the days when using ballista for anything other than farming level 5's was unheard of, the classic archer rainbow was considered EPIC and scout bombs ruled... I miss those days, *wipes tear*

When i first started playing i don't remember hearing of anyone using bots (sept for a few macro farmers) and like Mati says, you'd spend weeks building troops for wars and then if you got wiped afk and lost them you'd be spewing your guts up or crying your eyes out for hours... Nowadays with such a high level use of 3rd party software losing troops or resources is not as big a deal and the only damage done is to your pride... As for coining, yes i coin, but its nothing crazy and all within my budget... No 1k spends coming outa Imho's pocket that's for sure, if i had that kinda cash to throw around i sure as hell wouldn't be playing Internet games

nice thread iamme... Ima rep you for bringing back the memories from the by gone days of yore
