Basilmarket and Maplestory site back in 2005/2006

Can you still remember what the site's looked like?
Or have you ever wondered what they looked like?

well i came a cross this site a while back called the way back machine.
http://wayback.archive.org/web/
it pretty much saves every single website into their database every now and then so you can:
a) bypass ur schools proxy to visit a limited number of websites or
b) find out what a website looked like x number of years ago.
I thought it was kinda cool....

So here is what basil looked like back in 2005:

You can still click the links to read the general discussion and stuff, read the blogs. But the auctions dont work.

Heres what the maplestory site looked like in 2006.

Tiger is still no. 1. and the patch version is 0.32.
Click the patch update and you will see that they extended the patch. =P

[b]Nexon ~ extending patches since 2006.[/b]

Also this is google beta. Back in 1998.

Just thought it was a cool site and wanted to share.

EDIT: You have got to love the old maplestory logo.

[quote=StapleStable]Because back then, the Maple website needed you to use IE in order to access their website. Not anymore now of course.[/quote]

NOSTALGIAAAA

I friggin remember this! If you pressed the 'control' key whilst registering it used to block you out and say 'you can't cut/paste any information' and reload the page.

It was so aggravating but now that I think back on it I miss it so...
