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? :)

To Vladarion, though I know you are in a better place - it makes me shake to think that you are not awake - when I think about you it makes me smile - i know you have gone into the clouds to head for heavens gates - you have changed my life - in an incredible way - and so I say thank you - may you rest in peace

It was a great time. I have to visit the academy more offen....

To all the oldbies who still know me... HI GUYS !!! :D

well, the competition for the lower ranks was quite cool, in a way. and those trials were cool, too.

Yeah, Plo is right. The old times where great, but these times are too! And I'm stepping into a new era today as I'm going to purchase the game today.

I never attended a single class while there was a point system. Somehow they all managed to be placed at bad times while I was an initiate, but when we dumped the ranking-system, it all got solved magically. :)

Indeed. A lot of people attended classes just to earn the points, in order to take their trials.
Players who were very skillfull attended newbie classes, over and over.

Respect for the teachings and trainers was lost too, since most people just hopped around a bit, waiting for it to be over.

Not entirely sure, ask DJ. But I think it was because the people were taking classes just to get points and jump up through the ranks and not taking them to actually learn something.
