Oldest Active Player on Xian

[BrokenSaint]

Exactly.

[NuclearSilo]

And who is the youngest? O.o

LOL^

Okay since there are alot of old members that still play, does anyone have any names of the oldest players on Xian?

[non ego man]

And out of all of those hundreds of people i wanted to know if anyone knows the oldest one?

So you want to know a character that's still around that was created billionths of a second before another character that's still around? Even if it was possible to know that, does that matter for some reason? And from what point are you measuring: the loading of the character creation screen; the selection of the first character; the acceptance of the first build; the first spawning of a character in-game? And would you measure by the time the packet was sent from the server or the time it was received by the client or the time it was loaded on the player's screen? What Fly was telling you is that, for all measurable purposes, hundreds of characters were created at the exact same time that are still being played today. On the other hand, if you are trying to determine which character was created milliseconds before the next, it can't be known and if it could, so what?

STEP AWAY FROM THE SUNSHINE ACID

*person i picture saying this*

I think its to much thinking for a game
try cracking the main nerve of life
i got stuck on, body is the only thing we got but death is the only thing where promise.

uhmm idk can someone actually play this game for 2yrs?

[DragonTalon]

what u'r asking is impossible. the first time sro opened, and u logged on, u were surrounded by dozens of lvl1s signing on the same time u did, how the ..... r u supposed to know who actually was the first one to sign on?

or are u talking about how old the player is?

I think hes talking about the age

[non ego man]

whats your problem? if he wants to know he may ask right?

Question: Anyone know who he/she is?

Answer: there is a massive list of people who are still around on xian from back in alpha. its not 1 person.

Lack of understanding: That's why i asked for the oldest, can't you read?

Answer explained: as soon as alpha opened, over 100 people logged in at the exact same time to xian. then, seconds later, 100 more logged in. guess what happened 1 second later? lol. out of all these people, A LOT are still around.

Continued lack of understanding: And out of all of those hundreds of people i wanted to know if anyone knows the oldest one? If you don't know who the oldest is, then don't reply, it's as simple as that.

Larger explanation: Blah blah blah (my last post)

So Cin, what did I do wrong again? He asked the same question three times and got three answers that were increasingly complex in response. Did I flame him? Did I tell him not to ask questions? Let me know what I did wrong and I'll apologize.

*person i picture saying this*

Are you kidding me? I've patterned my whole f-in life after Hunter S. Thompson's attorney.

"I blundered on: 'I want you to understand that this man at the wheel is my ATTORNEY! He's not just some dingbat I found on the strip. Shit, LOOK at him!'" - FaLiLV

Hell yeah! Good call.

[Black_Mamba]

None of the alpha characters are still in the game, they all got wiped out when the testing finished, same when beta testing was over and we all had to make brand new characters.

As for people who played since day 1 who still play with any character old or new, there's loads and many are on this forum too.

Yeah, back in the day when the sro site had a different layout.

It looked like this: http://web.archive.org/web/20051026044220/http://www.silkroadonline.net/

or

http://web.archive.org/web/200511241943 ... nline.net/

This is how the old forums looked like:

[bambskiii]

hehe, havnt been on their forums since it had that layout:P now u made me curious on checking what it looks like

[Gaara]

I would say "From when I remembered"

It was SuicideGrl (Not brown nosing I promise) Ari, And I think zZ_Troy_Zz was the strongest.

[Matsuko]

It's funny because when i first started playing i didn't know there was such a thing like "Auto-pot" so you know what i did.

HP pots on 8
MP pots on 9
Vigors on 0

And i ripped it i swear i hardly ever died, probably only to lag because i was so pro at doing manual pot, but then when someone told me i felt kinda dumb and switched it to auto.

Never figured out why my fingers hurt so much more thsn anyone esle's until then.

[Replenish]

Ive played since Alpha day one, infact it was me who told Mamba about the game I still remember the first comment over msn when she logged in and I couldnt (nothing changes).

"OMG PEOPLE ARE RIDING AROUND ON HORSES"

What a nub lol.

Ive still got the char I started on the first day of Beta as well, Im not playing it though it was a nasty hybrid STR fire glaive.

That reminds me of when Beta was coming and during the down time before it started (two weeks IIRC) everyone on the tavern had decided that pure str fire glaive was going to be the best build evar.

Bah I just wanted a horse, shame it took us all night to get to level 6 with no skills, str/int, or anything else added, everyone was nub in those days, there was no guides, no forums, nothing.

Yeah the logins were still bad, took me 6 hours to login the next day, still not as bad as the days where there was no cap limit though, it was so laggy youd stand there for three minutes without moving.

And I only made that shite str fire glaiver cuz you said it was the best build lol

I remember yours though, you got bored and murdered everyone with it, we was gonna murder all the tomb nubs but didnt realise you couldn't kill under lvl 20's.

SuicideGrl was never one of the strongest players in the server. I joined this forum when lv 5x was super.
Fly was the man and we believed everything he said. ( Even that nukers should have 20 sword and 20 spear, 150 fire and 130 light).

[Gaara]

It doesn't say strongest. It sais oldest.

[DarkJackal]

I started sro a few days after it first opened, in alpha, Oct 2005.

Thats..

You are 1 and a half years.
You are 19 months.
You are 81 weeks.
You are 570 days.
You are 13,702 hours.
You are 822,144 minutes.
You are 49,328,680 seconds.

lol >.>


Though technically I have lost a few months but not from quitting or anything ;p, I still like sro(just not the, ya know), all though now apparently most of the ppl I know don't play now =.=, and even though I have fell way behind I don't plan on "quitting" i'm just going slow, faster now since i'm back, but still slow >.> lol.

[[SD]bizzle]

Just have to say great sig DJ

[DarkJackal]

Thx .
