Welcome to /diablo2! First thread: What was your D2 story?

For me it was being introduced when I was 10. I was a bit late to the game, and could only afford classic (this was when LoD was already released). Total ghost town, played on that for a half year before I could convince my mother to get my the expansion.

Immediately fell into addiction. Playing every day for about a year, thousands of hours for sure. Eventually quit when my account was hacked but have flirted with the game ever since.

I still have a guide up on JSP that I wrote when I was a tween.
