Ok, stealing this topic from the Vector boards and modifying it a bit.
Who do you remember first meeting and interacting with? I ask that since I met a lot of people when I first logged in, but can't recall names, however I do remember the first people I interacted with and learnt a few things from them.
Now I joined having a friend from before already here, Maius, so though he was the first known friend here, my first friend from MxO as such, was Contrapositive.
I actually jacked into the game and saw a load of players, one showed me how to hyperjump and gave me free info and a weapon, I really don't remember this guys name, but was thankful for his help. I spent the first few levels just getting used to things and eventually was farming for keys at about lvl 10. I was getting killed by about 5 mobs on me and Contra came up and nuked them all, then just became friends from that.
zion4eva recruited me at lvl 6 in mara central when he was a fresh 50. He helped me a lot, we missioned together and I soon became his FM.
Great dude ... He showed me a lot of tricks in the game, because at the beggining I was on my own doing mishs and stuff and didnt really know how the game worked in detail. I learnt all my CR1 tricks from him ... Sad he canceled his sub =(
((2 years ago when I had Jameskai))
I got to level 12 by myself apparently, but still a noob didn't realize there were other orgs and just kept trying to level doing only zion missions. Got stuck trying to finish one in westview. So I teamed with a sn0wmo who was zion at the time. He recruited me, but again I was a noob at the time and had no idea what was going on or how factions and crews worked.
Then i got recruited by the little kid playing Edmiseta, met Guardians of Unreality and prole and was merv from then on.
Prior to getting in to MxO BETA, I was already part of the Collective and good friends with the members. The first person I came across was DJSandman who coincidentally jacked in to Tabor Park West about the same time that I did. Amongst a sea of names his was first I recognized.
After my PC Upgrade, Sattakan and I went on a Demon Army killing spree until finally making our way down to Kedemoth where we hunted the Furies.
The first time I interacted with anyone in mxo was in the pre-order headstart we were given. It was a guy called LordG who I met in Lemone when i was killing mobs and wandering around aimlessly, completely unaware there were missions or anythign other than killing mobs to level up (Doh!).
I ran alone mostly. But the first people I can ever remember interacting with (back when I was Yahweh) were:
SparklingDiamond Hawk007 RedLynk (Back when he was RedLink128, and he also happens to be the only other one of those people I originally met that still play)
My work schedule prevented me from EVER having any of the old LET interactions. So I never got to experience that, despite being around since Beta. I ran around factionless until about June or July when I joined Foxxdie and his band of cronies on the Revenant.
I don't remember exactly who the first person I intereacted with was. I remember being on a bench, possibly at Tabor W and talking to some guy who gave me 500k which at the time seemed like loads.
I do however remember when I joined my first proper faction. I was level 6 and trying to mish, which I sucked at. I ended up running by Magog West and stopped to ask if one of the 3 people there would mind helping me finish the mish I was on. They were Narcissia, NinjaScroll and Xzula. Instead they told me to quit that mish and I could go with them since they were about to start. Kinda went from there really. I got a bit of a grilling as we went and when they were done they invited me to join Aeternus Eternus.
