Cool topic discussion, i started playing MU in Cyprus when i was going daily at the internet cafe playing cs 1.6 and other shooting games, one day i saw mu with my brother the admins of the net cafe were playing it... and a Local server nearby had opened so me and my brother started playing, i dont remember what season that was maybe 0.99 or season 1, things got addicting along with cs 1.6 and daily nice good times in these net cafes with people even tricking each other, login to their accounts (victim lol) stealing all my sets and acting like nothin happened, it was a hella fun times, then moved to more net cafes, global mu was epic at that time i remember 1 chaos 1 day and very very hard exp with a good seriously experience in game, people went over FIGHTS and people went through Lovely times for this game back then, so i keept playing almost every year and when i moved to Germany i played some server with high exp with my cypriot friend and also a great server 'shadowmu.co .uk' season 2 if someone remembers, that server was epic and made me realize about connection through the internet with other people (even tho as kid u dont know or have the 'mood' to figure out where to add each other, there was MSN mostly) so there was that one Legendary Lucky day where i was playing a crazy server where it had speed hackers etc.... and so funny with my cypriot friend he met one guy who knew how to use some cheats haha, so i was like lets go give it lets try, and he connected me with that person, that was at 2008!) so between 2008 and 2009 i started playing global mu season 2 by k2 network, spend alot of real money on Seals and alot of amazing times, really really golden times, i had a nice PK 396 and gaming was fun to the fullest always afk with pc and all this stuff with bots or what not.. most fun was the pk wars, the whole whole drama in Helheim server with dominion alliance / PkGod member here and the castle siege, that was the whole point of the game back then lol until hacks came in, dupe came in ,rollbacks came in, things shifted badly, season 3 came and boom somehow i got hacked my account r.i.p and i stopped playing ... what should i do..) so after some time i was thinking that guy who could speedhack on that private server with my cypriot friend maybe could help me start a server, for what reason? i dont even know!! so we both came here
KarLl (the old noob me ^_^)
Cryingsoul my really one of my best friends that i also met in real life 4-5 years ago. we found ragezone, and there was the MMT Season 2 files hype, so thats where everything started, it made me start learning, making my own servers ad experimentin + helping back, ofcourse as a kid u go thru different lifestyle, drama and whatsoelse, but at the end of the day, this game gave me chance to learn about my self, strengths and how i can connect with the internet and enjoy my time playing and having a goood leisure time, i honestly from that day i started making tutorials and even until today i do (but not that actively on this forum) i do for igcn video tutorials and other stuff on my own, and privately with other mu admin clients, so there you go, thats what it made me, realise you can use any strength in life to connect, learn, share, and who knows even earn! cus i did earn in my MU life from my services, from my servers (not really much so far) but hey all you can do is keep learnig, and playing the game.. if you dont evolve with the game seasons you get stuck in the past, its not that cool, ofcourse classic gameplay servers are nice, but its all the same in my opinion! because its not about the global mu webzen now... the global muonline is more likely a webshop and niche about muonline where things just evolve no matter what (with minimalistic repetitive features like new characters,skills,maps etc) so far) but the style did not change yet ! Maybe in MU2.. and im glad they didnt put mu2 together even if the design was better, so this game is a long term lifestyle business for webzen and for us is a tool to either earn, enjoy and have a good time with with all the private servers out there. Dont get me wrong! this game also MIGHT have pushed things back of my personal life, bring drama, issues, failures, but there is one key to life and its 'Consistency' no matter what you do if you stay on something for the long term and master it, it was never a waste of time, so i am grateful for still being here and being able to help and share discussions like this or anything related to the mu world. Mu can be messy, it is... as a game you got to understand it cus its not that understandable anymore like it was back then on season1-2-3-4... cus of all the new features and such u cannot think and put MU as what its the purpose in 1 place? pvp? wars? making good items/set? killing bosses? it can be anything now days, but at the end ofcourse its about becoming the best, and creating alliance,guilds with the best and owning the'server' in a way, things can be unfair sometimes but hey its just a game... so if you cannot find that specific server that you would like to play, what you do? most people come here and learn and do their server
then they know how the game works and questions are getting answered, if it wasnt for this forum, my friend cryingsoul, my childhood, my passion to this game, helping others achieve what i achieved and what most admins achieve by learning making their servers and the freedom and mindfulness it brings to my life.. maybe i would not be here at all, mu is my family
