When did you start playing Ragnarok Online?

[Uplink]

Around 2003-2004. I've played a lot of severs, stopped and played again. Met a lot of people and made a lot of friends. Quite an experience.

I startedplaying RO in late 2003, it has been more than 8 years on and off.. 
my first character was a swordman with a green spiky hair bacause it was cool back then

I started playing iRO back in 2004. But after about ten months I lost my job and couldn't afford it anymore. So private servers I went!

I believe I started playing 2002 or 2003. I used to play Counter Strike all day all night before going 24/7 to RO.

Bah, I think I started about 6 years ago on EtherealRO. I had almost joined sooner, on iRO, but I kind of failed at downloading/installing, so I gave up until one of my friends was like "PEACH~! JOIN THIS SERVER, IT'S SO AWESOME, YOU NEED TO PLAY IT WIFF ME." So I joined. Didn't realize there was a difference between their two rates, Discovery and Revenge, and accidentally logged onto Discovery looking for my friend. QQ;; He was on Revenge, derpy-peachy.

Been playing on and off since them, I haven't found a permanent server since leaving Essence yet. QQ I ROAM THE MID-RATES, LOOKING FOR THE PERFECT SERVER WITH ALL OF THE KAWAII HEADGEARS. <3
