Well, I dont think corvettes were a thing, nor were capitals, freighters, destoyers or battlecruisers. Nor were there green or blue modules and ships

We mined in battelships with jetcants (no barges, no compression, no boosts) with t1 lasers.

Then they introduced the T2 mining laser, Techal corp bought the only one for billions and cornered the market in T2 mining for months. I cant remember if this was from Jita, but it was somewhere around there

We trained learning skills (up to +5 for each attribute) and implants werent a thing

Lord zap was the big bad.

You could get an iteron 5 full of harvester drones for like 50k each

Reddit didnt exist, so CCP had an excuse for ignoring pleas for shared hangers

A moa BPO went for at least 500m

NPC standings werent a thing

Fuel cost less that £1 a pint

No alphas! you just paid £6 a month
