The reason why i have posted this topic was due to members saying there wish there could turn back time..
If you could turn back time, what date/time would you go back to...
Edit: Keeping your current perspective and state of mind.

The question hinges upon whether or not I am turning back time and keeping my current perspective and state of mind, or whether I'm returning to be the person I once was. The later I hardly see a point in doing: life is about growing and learning, not returning back to comfort. The former I still dont think I'd like to experience, I'd rather tackle the challenges that await me in the future as opposed to tackling the ones I've already conquered, but with a more advanced mindset the second time around.

Well, It depends of the situation... but in general - nah. xD

Mr Twigz comment makes sense.... But for argument sake I would rather go back knowing what I know now (of course). I would go back about 10 years and buy a bunch of stocks in google, apple, netflix, facebook, etc.
I would also focus more time on the things I have now come to realize are better for me in terms of a career... Its probably best to just look at the things we didn't/did do which were either good/bad as part of life's process and be content with it....

Everyone bashes the stock market in present time, but give anyone the chance to go back in time, and that's where the easy money is.. lol
If I could go back in time I would definitely take things a little more serious, and probably wouldn't have killed all those hookers... but you never know.

Only the weak wish to roll back time. Suffer the pain of discipline, or suffer the pain of regret.

Learn from your mistakes, never accept defeat and work towards accomplishing future goals. Basically just never stop striving towards perfection. Vegeta summed it up nicely.

I would go back to highschool days, but wouldn't change a thing. Not even the mistakes I made.

I would go back to before I started playing sro, and well say no to it. I met some amazing people on this game but I did ruin some of my years being a little too attached to this game. Sad but true.

SRO didn't ruined those years....you did... Those years could have been easily wasted on any game thus SRO isn't the problem...

Can't say it ruined anything for me. Then again, I didn't meet any amazing people in a personal way, just found a couple of nice communities.

That is certainly true. But if I could go back knowing everything I know now I would make sure to stay clear of gaming as much as I did and getting too, well, addicted. Also sro was the first MMO I played and the reason you can't 'finish' the game is what kept me online. If I didn't start sro when I did I might have stayed clear of MMO's untill this day, who knows ^^
I'm not blaming the game, it's all on me and I do regret it to some extend.

Having played SRO I'm still staying clear of (other) MMOs. I just haven't found a good enough MMO beside SRO.

Am I the only one that would go back and make a full str fire glavie as my first character? I mean we only get to go back in time once? Yeah definitely gotta make a full str. Still not sure if I should go ice or fire though.
