'Cause I remember I started a few days late for the set that started April 1st 2001; and *THEN* somebody told me (I was recruited to RED by my buddy) that I was supposed to be playing in 1A and not 1B

so I ended up like two weeks behind, playing CI


But it didn't really matter, because RED got in a war with CWG ^^
Finally did the signature thing.

I cannot see your signature - so if it's witty, put it in a post instead! :p

Fall of 97 I think. I still remember the kid in high school introducing it to me in the library. I was quite thrilled to get to 1 million networth. Ahh, the days.

If I had any clue that i would be playing decades later I would have taken notes.

I came in when Rage was 500+ members on 3 sites..... Have not missed a set since, although I must admit I was not very active from Afghanistan... :P

So mark me down for the mid '90s too.


This was when they had outposts. I remember them being 400+ but not 500. Imagine how many spies and multis were in their ranks then.

notice about 90% of those posting were here from the 90's?

remind me again how you all suckered me back into this place?

though have to admit it's way different now without ICQ, IRC, midnight phone calls, skipping work to run a warchat...

nice to spend (and i've timed it) an average of 1 and half minutes a day pressing some combination of explore, build, cash and buy/sell goods/tech every day

is this what normal people have always done in earth2025?

I started in 1997 and I was 13 then. Used to go by the name hao2 in case some of you do remember :)

Earth was known as solarianet then, then it became swirve. I was active from 1997-2001 or so. Went away and came back once in a blue moon. Resumed playing in 2005 I think under this current alias. Stopped when Mehul sold swirve. Came back again in July 2011.

Gotta say this is the best damn online game ever lol.

I am not exactly sure when I started BUT I do remember that Thomas and I started in Camelot at the same time and were squires together and then played in the same brigade and stuff. Strangely Thomas was one of the very first people I remember meeting in Earth and we're still in the same alliance today... Camelot wasn't my first alliance though and I played in the random games and stuff before then so... who knows? 98 at the earliest I am sure but 99 seems more likely...
