I remember back in the day welling at level 60+ and getting one shot by a fucking level 20 item. Bs LS, fuck you game. FUCK. YOU.

Still bitter about that shit.

I also remember when you had to solo this game to get to MQ and the carry-me group nowadays didn't exist.

That's what made this game so good, EVERYTHING was a competition. Now, its a competiSHIT.

Damn, you made me remember something when I was back in the day with a guild that wanted their members to Play LS... think they were called something like "Imperial" that I later found out that they ripped off a lot of the LS players when there was no such thing as Group runs, all solo and there wasn't even a Hardcore section.

Well, I checked out LS at that time... played it for like 1 minute and just went, Oh fudge no... so I was kicked out of the guild... :rofl:

but found Kirby when I became an active LS player... even though I started on HC first for like a month+ and failed drastically because I like to test/play the game without asking for advice, thus switched to SC to get a better handle of the game, and of course... back to HC.

Oh... btw... hi from "The Wall" (Rex)

I remember the days when I checked item history on op items the hard way and they weren't found 10-15 years ago

Gave the illusion they might drop in the future

I love these old antics of Ladder Slasher, especially the Pink Unicorn and doing your first Master Quest... dang would see that posted so many times when new players asked about doing a Master Quest for the first time.

wasn´t there no maze no more on main screen to enter? and transmuting by just putting 2 items with same lvl together?

deukalion

Sorry to not respond to you post earlier, the "No Maze No More" thing of the past was the "Chain" thing (if I remember correctly) where you enter the Well (in town or maybe just normal run with no catacomb) and when you killed off the first Wave (1 to 9) monster spawn, you would get a "Chain" (maybe you started off with 1, then 2, then 3 etc to 9 maximum and 9 each wave from there). Sorry, I wasn't playing LS then, I only tested it for like 1 minute and went back to D2.

Oh, and yup, you could Transmute items (no such thing as gaining Prof points or Ranks) in those days, also, if you knew the formula of such n such mod will equal such n such mod if you succeeded muting the items. ... basically (for example only), if you wanted +X Dex, you needed to mute items with say... +Vitality or something to that nature.

EDIT: to keep this to the thread:

"I remember when..."

There wasn't a prof cap from 1-10 and a player got a Month suspension for exploiting the game.

A player got a 3 month (roundabout) suspension for exploiting the "+X% Damage Return" bug in the game (basically if you let that monster kill itself with Damage Return, the drop quality and the quantity was WAY higher ... not joking here... more chances of 100%+ EE items and Max Stat items would drop)

I remember when Bigheaded wasnt Bigheaded. He had a different JSP name.

I remember hearing about people using the game as it was intended, and getting banned.

I remember before i ever saw a rex post, life was nice.

Good story. Since you don't have anything of value about playing LS before 2018, and a ton of my "old person" stories are from 2009 and prior, you are still just a child telling tales about LS without any experience, oh... as for the Bigheaded comment, haven't you figured it out right now... he never played LS earlier than myself, so his Join date is what... 7 months before I joined D2jsp ... not even worthy of the last comment he made... and you... joining in 2018... damn, you haven't even played LS for 10 years even.

But... thanks for the +1.

"I remember the days when;"

Andy threw in a Tier XII white item in the Well when the GROUP level was around 35'ish, and the monster INSTA killed him, and I had to heal everyone (being a Guardian) and for them to EXIT to town before I left catacomb, and then I sent a chat message to Datis (luckily he was online) and him and Matt did the bridging system (before you could edit a group game for higher level characters) for his level 90 or 100+ Guardian to join our game, and with their help (Matt brought in his higher level character in game as well) and we killed off the Well monster, this is the main dropped item:

Rare earth XII
Level Req: 45
Spell Damage: 146 to 255
Mana Cost: 93

+165% Enhanced Effect
+1% Physical Damage Reduction

And yup... I still have this item to this day and it has been used by some Guild members... this is like from the 2012 year... I will have to look up some archives to verify this story, but I am sure Implite (Matt) can vouch the story.

Uninstall it

woo

How do you uninstall a game that has never been installed. Oh wait, just like your comment to me, but, I will give you sound advice to uninstall something, "remove your eyes from the sockets so that you can never read anything you don't want to read." Or the simple fact is... STFU and post something helpful

I did strikethrough on my comment because it was a bit harsh... sorry about that, so... what "Old Person" story can you post about Ladder Slasher instead of the spam???

This post is a violation of the site rules and appropriate action was taken.

that’s a lot of words to tell everyone you have a mental illness.

Hey, another "I remember the days when..."

I got the Ladder Slasher name tag as "The Wall" because most of my posts were/are a "Wall" of text.

You literally asked if BH changed his username. Therefore you dont have a damn clue when he started playing and would have to take him on his word. As for me? Yeah I just recently started playing. I wish I would have started back when it was easy as fuck to make wild ass items thru muting instead of the shit drops we have. Side note: I may have not played anywhere near as long as you but I most definitely have/can have more prof than you easy peasy mr prof hunter. Stop belittling people shit head.
