Are there still people here from pre-reset or early 2001? Although I'm not an extremely active player anymore, I've been a member of the Nightmist community since January 2001. Wondering if there is anybody who has been here as long as me or longer.


This game ruled my life for a couple years lol, 1999ish-2001 or 2002. I have been trying to remember my old crit names! My real name is chase if anyone remembers lol. I was part of the Notorious Beanie Masters for a while. I remember Pippin and Samus, one of my good friends at the time played as well. His name was Magnus. I will do some research to see if I can find any of my old names. I'm gonna have to dig through the old forum. If I magically remember the password for my old acct, can I still recover crits from that long ago?

I just found found myself in the old forum. My forum name and I believe my first crit name was The_Colonel! Must look for more!

crit name Fight

If anyone has any pre-reset screenshots or just really old Nightmist screenshots you should post them here!


^^^ Someone out there must have some saved to photobucket or something surely! Bet JLH has some saved. I should email him or something.

It's rather surprising that there's so many folks around from the pre-reset or early post-reset days of NM. Well around on the forums at least. Too bad more don't come around. Would love to talk to some of the really old players again. Especially the old seth from Legions of the Night pre-reset. I always wanted to admit something to him involving the players Ikaros, Baros, a pair of Razor Claws, and my old barbarian Android_20. Sadly I never got to and probably never will!

lol yeah was nice back then.

I was uh Illidan, Exor, and Rappy_Ninja_Is_Lame after the reset. Had to pick new names since JLH wouldn't let numbers be in names anymore so I couldn't be Android_20. Not that I'd really wanted to at that point since I had gotten over my DBZ craze and got uh older.

Speaking of Android_20 though. Before I ended up quitting, JLH actually did let me have the name back. Was the only character left with numbers in his name if I recall.

Man I've been bored so I was looking through the old Nightmist forum from pre 2004 for the hell of it. The nostalgia hits me like a ton of bricks just reading some of the old posts and remembering how amazing this game was once upon a time. It's funny I think back and I miss the beginning of pretty much every game I've played such as Nightmist, World of Warcraft, and Diablo 2. But Nightmist really was something special back then.

One thing the old forums is showing me though is how much of an asshole I was at times, lol... It's also a refresher on many things I had forgotten about over the years. Like all the people I shared accounts with at times, all the clans I joined or made. I completely forgot Ste(Stigmata) and myself were leaders of one of the strongest clans pre-reset. Good ol Dark Shadows. Then there was a guild a lot of us formed called Council of the Elders or something similar. Think it was post-reset though and contained a crap load of old school players.

I'm reading a thread on the old forums now just like this one called Memories. Lots of nostalgia in that thread. Since we've been discussing old stuff here I'll ask my question here as well. Does anyone remember Norinth or the Fire Mage from pre-reset? I honestly don't remember them, but in the thread I'm talking of theres a post by me stating how I was in the first team to kill Norinth and the Fire Mage only to discover they dropped nothing. Pretty weird I can remember all sorts of pre-reset bosses vividly like Ssilx, Ogre, Hell Baron, Giant Tentacle Beast, Harlequin, Gorgon Beast, Stone Lord, and thats about it but I just do not remember the Norinth or Fire Mage.

I've posted this pic before, but it seems relevant to this thread too so I'll repost it for those who might not have seen it. Some good ol nostalgia.

Posted Image

Can't believe I don't see Android_20 on there though!

I think I know or knew pretty much every single person on there. Anthrax,Lyetor,Kurgan, and Zidane I think were all Thrax/Ebony's crits too if I'm not mistaken. bones69, flame69, and Akasha(Medora) were also pretty much the first friends I made on Nightmist when I started. Ganja/Mistress_Kittie(Kat) was just plain awesome. MasterLocke was my boy. He was cocky as nuts, but pretty cool. I think Mael was Medoras boyfriend at the time? Can't remember. Joe90 was JLH's test crit I think. billy_the_kid was a super nice guy from what I remember. Flux, Deval, and Odin were in a league all their own. They would keep me in stitches. I remember Arieswar was in Legion of the Night, but I never saw him talk. And Baros/Ikaros were two really good players too. I think they were the guys that showed Ste(Stigmata) and myself the power of Revive.

But yeah I really should email Pandi or JLH sometime to see if they've got anymore old pics around like that, and suggest they maybe host them on the main page or something. I know there's a picture of what Nightmist's map pre-reset looked like, but I cannot find it anymore. Someone has it though I'm sure.

I remember the old forums before YaBB 1 Gold, it was cool boards or something. I remember downloading Nightmist from this arcade games website and immediately becoming hooked on it. No other game, besides a SA:MP server has really got me hooked before. Maybe Diablo 2 back in the day but not as much as Nightmist.

 

First clan was Death By Dawn, owned by Rich, his main crit was Lit at the some or some nuts. Became friends with him and some dude called Da_Bill, who created Forever Rain shortly after.  I think I owned several top 10 clans back in the day, as well as being a member of Brotherhood of Darkness, NBM, Devils Kingdom (If that's right, was Jess's clan), The Resistance, Broken, Midnight Thorns... The list goes on.

 

People might remember me more as Xlithan, as that was my first proper character.  All my crits have been purged, and I can't seem to restore them, so that's why I don't play any more.

Man what I wouldn't give if JLH would bring back the pre-reset map and what not on a new server or something. That'd get me back to Nightmist for sure. All this reminiscing here reminds me how much fun Nightmist was. From pre-reset up until like 2005 the game couldn't have been better!
