"I remember when..."

[Schlack]

.... you had to hand write out rare trade routes (but you could fill your hold!)

...the time we went exploring the Galaxy before we got the 1000LY route plotter.
Also, the time we dreaded going to the core due to the problems it caused to said 1000LY route plotting.

Salt levels on the forum were below the daily recommended amount

...when I was sat at home, recovering from a heart & clot problems, wondering what to do with my spare time.

I googled 'Elite' & saw for the first time in many, many years that Frontier were about to launch Elite Dangerous!

I can barely remember last week.

Yeah, sorry... Snow has been forecast for the Cambridge area, and all the salt has been taken for gritting walkways around the Science Park. Once the weather improves, we'll return you to your regular saltiness.

• When we were told there will be no server wipe for Gamma > Live transition.
• When I finally was able to afford D-kitted Hauler, after working my bottom off for a few weeks to earn enough money for it. Good old 3301...
• When I took said Hauler for an exploration trip 500 LY away from the Bubble and was scared to death something will happen to me or my ship while I am "out there in the black"
• Battle of Lugh and the poem in Chaviano Gateway.
• When FDEV said at Lavecon 2015 (or '16) that they will implement the Graveyard at Tionisla at some point.
• When I thought "at some point" meant "at some point in the near future"

Salt on roads essentially signals the end of my 2 wheeled adventures until March. I remember when I would ride all year round. Now I have a car too. I'm too old for that winter riding lark. I remember when I had no choice. When I'd have icicles hanging off my eyebrows.

I remember the hunt for pre enginer / pre Powerplay modified weapons.

I remember when you could find a Refining system on the fringe of the bubble in a Boom state, and receive missions to Mine commodities that they sold in their own markets and flip 500m+ an hour without ever leaving the pad.

”Market Mining” was a real thing.

 

[Oss133]

I remember when ha'pennies and farthings were still legal tender.

 

[GunnerBill]

When the Vulture was released and CMDRs would boast how they could still kick its in their Asps!

 

[TheMegaTurnip]

When the Eagle was the scourge of CG REZ'

 

[Sweet&Dandy]

The Alpha... fish from chango... gold from Freeport!

 

[Han_Zen]

I remember everything.

What's worse is I don't remember any of this stuff - at least not until I read through this thread. [where is it]

Extreme age can do that to a person...
Well, that or bad drugs anyway...
