You know why Red Hats used to be worth the least.

 

 

 

hmm, i'm only guessing but, was it because there was a red in general shop but there were 0 of it?

Well, I would call myself oldschool, but ATM I'd prefer to call myself a n00b... I've played back when I could have picked myself up a few christmas crackers, however, I was such a noob I had to ask people to take me back to the cows because that was the only place I knew >.<

 

 

 

I didn't play on holidays up until around 05 anyways.

 

 

 

Oldschool or noob, its just a matter of preference. :wall:
