Probably Barry's world back in the day when I played Dark Age of Camelot and Day of Defeat. The online world was smaller then and communities felt more genuine although that may just be rose tinted glasses.

My favourite memory was when I was working for Blueyonder on the night shift in 2002. I took a call and a lady was having connection issues for an online game...turns out she was also playing DAoC on the same server and faction that I was.
