I found Mabi in the ad pages of the US Shonen Jump zine, joined sometime in early 2008 (I think April but ain't sure) and haven't left since. I have a lot of screenies, and decided to share a few of them from each year with you guys. I'm gonna space them out over the course of a few days because I really have a ton of them, and the trip down memory lane is downright mesmerizing. In particular, the small and progressive changes to the UI I never really noticed bring the nostalgia hard.
2008
I don't have screenies of my early months. It was a fun time of part-time jobs by day (the last one being for Ferghus) and dungeons by night. I had problems leveling past L14 XD and while I was a young lass everyone else was a smug premium 10 year old. Later in the year, my siblings finally decided to join me in Erinn, just in time for the very first Xmas event, and conveniently I began to take screenies. I remember running around doing all sorts of errands for Santa, who was in Bangor.
2009
This year saw the first run of the infamous Mabiletters event; we slogged all day hunting raccoons just south of the Dugald Aisle logging camp until we could afford the China dress for me and a set of Arish Ashuvain Armor for each of us, all of which we still own to this day.
Here we have the first instance I saw of bored people bringing mobs into Dunbarton for the lulz:
Mining, for some reason, in Ant Hell, right by a salamander and its minions. Why? Can't remember.
A fireball is cast to avenge my demise in Par Dungeon. As you can tell by the damage, the spell only made the woke Bandersnatches rush the caster XD
A Fleta impersonator in Dunby square. This used to be a fad, but it's been years since anyone's tried it again.
