i remeber the first time i killed Glint..............
Angelic Upstart
I remember The Frozen Chest and The Lost Strongbox, Eles being made redundant in SF overnight with the first AoE nerf, the gear trick,....rockmolder 100k pre-nerf... THK monk strike, and being the hardest mission in the game.....good times.
Croco Clouds
I remember when I made 70K per day by selling exalted aegis to tyrians in Droknar Forge
Kusandaa
I remember the refund points too (and then going, "WTF GONE! 
"), my friends being stuck on THK for weeks, PUGs actually being more bearable and less a-holes, killing Glint was really hard, GvG being the only way to get people into a guild, being r3 was leet, mino farming... that kinda stuff .
Bryant Again
I remember:
-Lion's Arch for the first time. Seemed so big then.
-Seeing the first set of 15k armor (glad's). It was aqua teal and looked so shiny!
-First RA match (at level 14)
-Thinking Drok's was some totally high-end secret place that sold the ascended armor.
-Spamming "trading FDS for IDS"
-My first awesome guild.

I remember when making money was easy, and the guild wars economy wasn't crap.
Vapor_Fighter
I remember when Burial mounds was a 4 team massive orgy of killing
I remember when Scarred Earth was there.
I remember when I thought that my Droks armor was the best ever and then I realized how ugly it was

BLOODGOAT
I remember the release of IDS and how I promptly farmed and sold one for an easy 40k.
I remember how I made over 200k just by buying wood, crafting parchment, then reselling parchment in Droks.
I remember farming the trolls in Snake Dance because I didn't know about the troll cave outside Droks.
I remember farming Griffons post-AoE nerf, and it was still totally fun.

I remember doing a 13-consecutive RA win with a level 13 Wammo against level 20's. A WAMMO! I had Mending. Boy did I love Mending. My energy sucked since I used Healing Breeze on my teammates and their mom. I blame all the other Online games where I went Paladin. >_> Few days into GW and I had no clue what I was doing, so I kept getting ran everywhere. Droks was nice the first time... expensive, but nice. :P Played for like a week and a half, then left GuildWars for 2 years until like a week ago. I still had 9 plat in my storage. o_o
I also remember those refund points. Made no since. :P

Seraphim of Chaos
I remember when Superior Vigor, Superior Absorption, and Celestial Sigils were worth A LOT.
Ambuu

Harmless
I remember when ......
I was excited to get to the desert to get max collector's armor
When thirsty river and thk seemed really difficult
When rangers couldn't get into groups ever
When the game never seemed a grind
When I had great fun watching my friends griffin farm
When my monk was ranger secondary and had a bear for protection...lol

o_o It's an unmentionable game mechanic that we will not mention unless required by people who would like to know why the unmentionable is unmentionable, thus making it... mentionable!

Vinraith
I remember when it was only Prophecies and if you wanted to play with a couple of friends (rather than PUG) you basically couldn't get past the southern Shiverpeaks. Then I stopped playing until Nightfall came out. Thank goodness for heroes or GW would still be gathering dust on the shelf I put it on back in January of '06.
Ugoff The Unholy
I remember when grinding/farming was fun and optional.
I remember when I spent a large sum of money on a 10/10 sundering mod.
I remember when I would stay up all night farming griffons.
I remember when I would go into the Under World with a PUG.

I don't know if this was said earlier but...
I remember when:
- There was only Prophecies
- There were alot of people playing
- There were no such thing as Assassins, Dervishes etc.
- Shadow Stepping was non-existent
- Factions was non-existent thus there was none of the relentless trash talking about other people in other factions
- AoE
- How Boon-Prot was such an effective cookie-cutter build that 'everyone' was a good monk
- Less rants on Forums about Anerfs
- There were less Trolls and there were nicer people

"How do you make white dye?"
Mavrik
I remember...
my first PvP event in prophecies when going post searing. Had no idea what was going on and didn't attack anyone.
Was such a noob I ended up at fort ranik (post searing) still in starter armor.
got my first black dye.
ele fire skills were da bomb literally. AoE wasn't nerfed.
Everyone was a noob.
your characters stood outside a campfire... wish I had a screen of that still. the original log in screen is still my fav.

Ahhh, them were some great builds.

I remember when droks run was still a good money maker.
I remember when I always took mending on my bar, wondering why my energy was so low.
I remember when having 1 ecto was only something I could imagine.
When people didn't ask you to ping your build before the start of every mission.
When I thought the 55 monk was the most awsome thing ever.
And when I was clueless on how to get the crafting materials needed for my first set of armor out of pre-searing in old ascalon (the monsters never drop the stuff the crafter needs.......)

RedNova88
I remember when I first started playing GW (Prophecies) and I did a lot of stupid crap with my original warrior. I had things on my bar like Frenzy and Blood Renewal and trying to be a MM with my warrior... Lol... So dumb.
Saphrium
I remember first time I realized there are other places I haven't visited even after beating the final mission a few times.
I remember fighting through the snows and monsters with a nice pug team, and finally reached granite citadel, loaded with money and material for my first set of 15K armor.
I remember granite citadel's music as my favorite.
I remember I made a lot of friends when playing prophecies, and how I lost them after factions and nightfall.

I Remember When my war was lvl 16 in pre because i didnt know how to leave >.<
I Remember When pve was fun and hoh didnt require titles i dont like titles...

Kook~NBK~
I rememember when names like Yak's bend and Lion's Arch had a mysterious, exotic aura about them (before I made it to those places the first time, way back when)
I remember when Fire Storm was a decent PvE skill.
I remember when my first Ranger met his end - Eaten by his own pet bear! (hyperphasia FTL!)
I remember when NO ONE would take a Mesmer in their group. (They're learning
)
I remember taking my second Ranger through Prophecies doing Mission & Bonus all the way through just for the sake of doing it (pre-titles)
I remember doing the torch trick in THK and making jokes while all the baddies were beating on me and all my party was beating on them!

trobinson97
When almost no one would let rangers into a party.
Being called a noob when I didn't have all the skills the party leader requested my first time in HA.
Getting my first sup Absorption drop from an Ettin, back when they were around 60-70k-ish.
The rollback of 06.
Being excited when I got that deer emote.
Farming Drakes outside Elona's reach
Waiting almost a year and a half for my first max damage Fellblade to drop (dropped in Elona of all places, but was purple, max, q9 and at that point, totally worthless).

prism2525
I remember:
Feeling lost in pre-searing ascalon.
Feeling awestruck (and lost) when seeing the whole post map (i thought you could explore it ALL)
Going out SOLO with my lvl 6 E/Me, with the skill bar a total mess (7 different attributes - see my first ever screenshot)
Not knowing you can shift your secondary as many times as you want and stayed as an E/Me for AGES because of it.
Thinking that soloing lvl 8 centaurs with my lvl 13 war was leet (had mending of course).
My first valuable drop (sup prot prayers rune, worth approx 12-14k at the time)
When we were the only heroes and had only henchies to go 'round with.
When sup abs and vigor were insanely expensive. then when I dropped one, they were already going down.
