I've been looking at retired users profiles, and I've noticed that some of the has the title "Oldbie Council no. _". So I was getting a bit curious...what was the oldbie days like? :)

All of those who complained about the old profile pic system are invited to eat me. :) I spent two hours a day working on those until we automated it. No one EVER sent in pics that were the right size (dimensions or file size).

Actually silk, hux never was a knight. the only knight at that time was dice. they didnt have a knight trial ready. so huxley went from student to trainer.

hehehe i remember pepsi. he was an anti-saber player. he hated the fact that no one practiced with guns and only wanted standard duels. so instead of just politly asking if people wanted to have a ctf session he would berate people calling them star wars nerd role players or something. he was basically a counter-strike/quake player trying to get those same jollies out of jk2. even though he was a jerk he sure did make this place interesting for a bit.

I remember having to mail in profile pics. I recall DJ commenting that he'd never seen anyone use a sports pic as an avatar before.

Does anyone remember that guy Pepsi? He was REALLY good, but what a JERK!!! He'd completely insult you and then pretend that he had no idea that he was bustin' on you. He didn't last here too long, but he caused quite a stir while he was.

I remember Huxley entering the servers as 'Huxley [JAS]'. Oh before the point system there was a simliar system but that only required to to find a teacher to trial you, show some moves and climb the ladder of the ranks. And a really long time ago, you had to mail your profile picture to fixtheja@hotmail.com, and someone there would put it up for you plus send you a friendly mail back. Try that with 6500+ users :P

Yeah; Hux was still with us as Huxley|JAK| :P At least he was when I joined. I remember his kick class, where I'd always get pwn3d by everyone. :)

And yeah the point system was a nice idea, but it kinda resulted in students being angry at teachers for not giving them points. And for a while we were The Trial Academy :(

I can actually remember the JA without Smily...it didn't rule NEARLY as much.

OMG - I loved the old system (apart from the fact that some peeps did go to the classes just to get points up - as already mentioned). It was a great time back then :D When we had peeps like NFF active and on the servers every day - and it was not uncommon to see DJ and Doobie on their either. Oh and the day's of DJ's historic server - oh the memories! :D

Yeah, oldbie days were cool...remember when doobie used to be massadoobie, not comrade doobov? WHAT THE HELL IS UP WITH THE "COMRADE" STUFF??

on a lighter note, I remember handing in my application for the Academy and the point system...to tell you the truth, I'm sure the point system was a good a idea, but I like the current way to move up better. I remember I went to one of La Magra's class (my only one:eek:) and I didn't see him at all. I figured he had cancelled class, and lo and behold: I was docked a point when I checked my profile the next day. ;)

oh yeah, i remember when Yun was still with us, and his Padawans were the only thing close to an organization here at the JA. I wonder if his old paddies are still with us...::looks off into the distance and strokes a nonexistent beard::

btw, welcome back Kit! never met you, but chances are I won't anytime soon...
