Back in early feb 2018, I was a d u m b newbie... I mean, most people since its a new server... I grinded here(MANSHA) 9hours or more a day... for a week i think...
Since I was a d u m b newbie at that time, I believed and tried what my friend Ishi and Donovan (retired players) told me.. and that is to enhance my gears at the top of GOAT MOUNTAIN and offer it to Elion and the PA gods. I failed my TRI Yuria, but got a DUO Ancient Guardian Seal... It was my happiest moment at that time...

This was my 1st guild, Islapilinas... a group of players that grief/karmabomb others to relieve their stress IRL(only a few are lifeskillers. I begged some of the other guilds just to stop declaring XD)... most of them retired from the game, some transferred to other toxic guilds(miss you mga paps) :D

This is the WEIRDEST place that i have seen in this game, VELIA. Floating ships in the Storage Manager, A crowd of elephants in the Central Market, A crowd of perverted players cat-calling a Tamer or a Shai, etc... The Weirdest one was when a large group of bored adventurers tried to push this wall...

This was when I enhanced and downgraded/broke my weaps/acce ng the middle of nodewar. one of the d u m b e s t things i did in this game...

and lastly, this cute, basic, simple skills, easy grinding and OP, Shai,

....that gave me Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. Now i cant grind for more than 1hr or PVP without getting a sharp pain in the arm. I can only lifeskill now, but I'm still happy and love this game... this may be a simple d u m b memory, but for me, these are happy d u m b memories :D
Sorry about your Carpal tunnel. But as long as you're happy, then everything should be fine, I think that's what's most important. Also, I totally get having this kind of nostalgia, I never grinded, was a Lifeskiller from the start, but remembering how you used to view things (even irl), makes you smile at the thought of how much you've learned, and progressed from your old self. I watched Steve Jobs speech in Stanford Uni, he said:
"You can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future."
