Certainly not mine, but an interesting question :).

Heh heh, well, I think we can all attest to having played this game for many years at this point. It's almost 12 years old, for crying out loud. XD

I think my actual game time is almost 11 years ( I started playing around the time the game got full voice acting ). My original account had some unfortunate things happen to it, so I ended up abandoning it about 3-4 years back. I've hardly touched it since.

I actually wanted to go take a look at it again this month, just to remember the good ol' days of Wizard101, but... I had the displeasure of discovering it's completely corrupted, and won't even log in anymore.

This doesn't surprise me, since it HAD been compromised multiple times in the past, but ah. Rest in peace, my old friend. Perhaps your time to shine will come later. :(

I would consider myself a bit of an interesting case in this matter. My current account was created in early 2015, but my wizards and love of the game are older then that. I actually split my wizards off from another account at that time. I've really been playing for... I honestly forget. A long time.

Interesting question.

July 2016!

Although I have a memory flash of me playing under a different account back in 2012... I might be wrong

I created my account on September 1, 2008, that is the day that W101 went live with a payment status. I actually started playing when the game was in Beta.

Back then it was a much smaller, much tighter knit community. The highest level was 50, with Dragonspyre being the last world. We only had a handful of mounts, as well as limited pets. There were no "critical" hits back then and treasure cards weren't as powerful as they are now.

I recently battled Malistaire on my newest wizard and I remember it being much scarier, this final battle. We needed all 4 players back then in order to win this battle. The most recent was easily won with just 2 of us.

Ahhhhh, the memories

Some of us have been playing or at least have an account for a decade or more!

Kudos to those who have stuck and remain loyal to the game throughout all the major up's and down's!

And a special welcome to all new players!

im still playing on the same wizard i created all those years ago, i still remember running around wizard city back then and seeing all the people with Mooshu blade wands, i remember being in awe of the helephant spell at the time haha
