Default Where were you on 9/11?

I was playing EQ and found out about it from someone in game.

Interesting thread.


I was sleeping and woke up to my mom screaming and yelling at me that we were under attack, so instinctively I grabbed my lacrosse stick and ran downstairs.

I had to go to a federal building that day for some court BS... I was rather worried.

I played the game later that day though and chatted with everyone on Veeshan about it.

I was playing EQ as well, was watching the TV next to the screen as the 2nd plane hit live... I was in a partly US guild at the time, and needless to say guild chat exploded...

I would also say a lot of us were probably younger and not working full time jobs... just a guess...

My Parents woke me up after see'ing the first plane crash. I stood in the living room watching the news in my underwear and watched the second plane crash live. At that point, I knew it wasn't by accident. Ended up skipping school and heading over to my friends house to watch the news for 2 days straight.

I woulda been 19 years old.

I was on holiday in kreta( greece) . Went out for a walk with my mates and saw lotta people runnin towards bigscreen tvs some terrasses had. Then i was stunned for what i saw on the screen.

We had to fly back 2 days after( not to the usa tho), i kissed the ground when we arrived at our homeland lol. i never have fear of flying but this time it was a bit different.

I have a pre-storie to this also lol, but ill tell in short.

The day before 9/11, we went to visit a mountain in kreta where the god of war rests(some ruins where there) and we accidently made a huge fire with 1 siggaret that was trown away... firesquads etc all had to come the fire , it was really an amazing fire in a few seconds( high winds and very dry season, u had to be there )

So we fled that sceen and tought the police where after us lol( bit paranoia but hey we literally litted up a whole mountain and we didnt wanted to end up with sone greeks in a prison.... we didnt do it on purpuse tho. And no other people where near the place.( back of the mountain had a huge cliff so there was only 1 way down...( plus we checked the news for days after, but only 9/11 was on it ... [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Well either way, school or work. I personally was in school. I was just saying its surprising to see all the people on at that time. I guess that explains why people are able to level up so quick.
