I honestly don't remember anything about my first memories of Graal. I just basically played Classic all the way through, got bored, and left for 6 months. I didn't join any guilds, hang out with anyone, nothing. Just went on and played like it was an offline game. I was more in it for the gameplay and stuff and not chatting. That's probably why no one remembers me playing Classic a long time ago.
I wasn't really concerned about guilds, when I signed up, etc. It never crossed my mind. I just got bored one day after like 6 months and came back to classic. Played for a while, joined guilds, and eventually after a while, 2k1 came out and after the big reset on classic, I moved on.
