A few chumps and I were in chat where having a memory lane ball with all the wicked things we've experienced in cb history.

1. Finger of Death (FoD)
2. Bank (max 1m deposit with a 12% return)
3. IA's
4. The banning of Bazounga
5. Unlimited BAs (no caps)

...and a couple of other cool experiences.

oh yea...and when you could pick up a lochaber for 300K in the early stages of cb.

Chances of success for Enchantments

Decay backfire due to low HP of the Mage

AMF bug which caused Spid to go negative into the millions resulting in the rollback after a few hours

And off course the Mushu Forger that was working for weeks and got totally undone by an overheating incident.

The savage botchecks that made you do mathematics, boy, was it hell.

Failing a bot bot check reset your character.
(Fortunately, Jon changed that before I started playing)

There should be a wiki about this! Really. I've always wanted to read about things like the Trollskin Armor... Please?

I upgraded ELB to x26 just 2 months or so before CB 2 was launched, and it was nerfed pretty bad. ;)

If that ELB wasn't nerfed, I'm not sure how powerful is the current x27 ELBs in CB 1, 50-80 mil damage per shot maybe ?

When NUB players could always earn money buying BA.

When Spaceman[Camper] use to get thousands of free BA as some of us lost ours.

Honestly, you don't have to go very far to find a few of these.
