This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the
opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards
deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least
20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per
page).
Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50
topics per page, while others deemed of historical
signifigance may be archived in their entirety.
We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but
we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in
lieu of that.
Please enjoy the archive. ~

DAOC is a very social game. Even at the early stages, many of the encounters and RVR are geared for the group experience. After playing for any length of time, you get to know people within the game be it guild mates, alliance members or just people who get to know your name and group with you. Bonds and friendships form.
I started off playing the game with my son, and we did have pretty much a set group that we ran with. Within that group one couple decided to meet in real life. They started dating, and eventually moved in together. Through the years, I've heard a number of stories about people who've met their significant others in game. The Blackheart Pirates guild on Gaheris has a yearly get together so that guild members can meet and greet each other during a weeklong, summer vacation event. I've never gotten the opportunity to attend, but the group that regularly does so has a blast getting together each year.
This week, Topic of the Week wants to hear your stories about real life meetings with in game friends.
I'm looking for some topic ideas. If you have one you'd like to see posted, please drop me a line!

I have met dozens of players in real life due to DAoC Road Trip events. I was introduced to DAoC by real life friends and my brother back in 2001. I have even traveled abroad with friends from DAoC (shout out to Lars).
