How long have you been playing PSO?

In all it's iterations? I've been on PSO for 15 years starting with the official Sega GC servers. I played on the Xbox official servers, Imported Blue Burst w/Episode 4 expansion from Japan, and played on the official US servers once released here. I then spent most of my time after that on SCHTHACK with the GC,BB and DC. After that whole thing fell apart I decided to look for another server and after trying others I finally found a home here. What about everyone else?
 
February 21, 2001.

Ver.1 -> Ver.2 -> GC Ep. I&II -> Ep. III -> BB -> PSU -> PS0 -> PS02 -> Ephinea
 
Mew went Online about 2 weeks after its release here in the states for SEGA Dreamcast <3! The delay was only because she still wasn't sure she could purrform on a global scale with only ONE working paw...XD! ......SURPRISE!!! lol
 
Started around 2004 playing co-op with my older brothers on GC EP 1&2 Plus when I was 5. 18 now and here I am still playing.
 
Picked it up release day in the U.S. (january 2001) with money i saved up peddling candy in my middle school (gotta love 00's dollar store prices, 100ct pixie stick bags for $1, 50ct blow pop knock offs for $5) and early 9th grade.

Still remember the bike ride to Toys R Us with my friends after school and setting up/signing up for SegaNet which ended up turning into Earthlink dial-up shortly after lol.

So to answer your question, will be playing this dumb game 17 years off and on in January.

Ver 1 - Played online Since the U.S.A. Release date
Ver 2 - Played online after I imported the Japanese version 2-3 weeks after the Japanese release date
Gamecube E1&2 - Played online since the U.S.A. Release date
Xbox E1&2 - Played online since U.S.A. Release date (stopped playing 24/7 once I started university in fall of 2004 but still hopped on for battle mode once in a while until the official server shut down sometime in 2008). Voice Chat PSO > all other PSO

Blue Burst - SCHThack sometime in late 2009 early 2010 and I've been around ever since.
 
Since the dawn of time.

DC>PSOPC>GC>PSOBB>SCHT>ULTIMA>EPHINEA.

  • The 1st encounter was DC watching my older brother, then we both got ver2 for the PC and started playing while in college.
  • Played heavily on GC offline, and BB online.
  • Schthack I mostly cmoded.
  • Ultima I barely played, filled the gap of no PSO when Schthack was dead (and I had a few friends there and an account from when it originally opened).
  • Never got around to trying Eden though I heard it was good fun.
  • Played in D's server for a short period among 2/3 other flops including the recent Destiny.
  • Invested alot of time into Ephinea over the last few years, not been on as much recently since summer.
 
Don't remember the exact date I started, but I've played my entire life basically.

Started on SCHThack in late 2011. Played there until the 2015 crash.

Oh yeah I remember those days. Had to download the Japanese version too. I lost count at how many times my account got rolled back due to an unstable server at the time. But once the server got figured out it was a wild ride.
 
Started on Gamecube in 2003 offline and then went onto duoing Blue Burst and Gamecube in 2008.
I quit BB for a few years and exclusively played GCN until about 2014 when I got a Dreamcast and went back to playing BB as well.
So I started to play BB and DC Ver.2 and GCN until about 2015 when I stopped playing Ver.2 and Gamecube.
Played BB exclusively until 2016 and then went back to just GCN.
2017 I play BB very little. A few hours here and there a week and play GCN pretty much exclusively and a very very tiny bit of DC Ver.2. Probably going to quit BB altogether soon and only play GCN again as that's all I even care to play anymore.

So, short end, started PSO as a whole in 2003 with GCN, started BB in 2008, been playing since.
 
At my first duty station a gaming friend reccomended pso gc to me. Probably some time mid 2002. Played live until i lost that loving feeling for the game.. probably because of dupes.

Picked pso up again on Schtack in like 2012 I think. Around that time I started out occasionaly playing ver.2 online at Pso Palace/ Sylverant.

Currently I dabble a little on Dolphin offline. Tis been a long time since I played blue burst online at any length.
 
Pretty much since the beginning. I got a Dreamcast for my birthday and picked up the game soon after that.

To ring in the new year, here is a greeting from the first New Years event from NA PSO D:
