I remember the days of ugly cobblestone nub boxes

You mean today?

Also, I was surprised to find that I remembered all of those things. When did you first join?

November, Octoberish, 2011. Took me a while to find out about the forums.

My earliest MR memory was of the thoroughly trashed 3.0 spawn area, with pits to bedrock in the roads and cobble skyscrapers along the sides. And the water slide exit from the spawn building.

I remember being a founding member of Korriban who ponied up about half of the money to buy the first realm, alongside the 2 Darths.

I remember when everyone began losing their **** because they thought Terra Novos was going to take over.

I remember when NA still belonged to Cogohst.

I remember helping Foxtopia when they were trying to buy Terrance's realms when they disbanded, only to have it all go horribly wrong, Kress got most of the realms, and Zane went a little crazy and started throwing stuff into lava.

I remember Skycity 1.0. Then it got greifed.

[LeafWarrior254]

I remember that public realm only 400 blocks away from spawn....
Ahh memories...
And NTC's burn-your-eyes-out buffet realm at spawn...

[Ryu Aurora]

I remember Creepington, mooglar, and Gulagistan. I also remember the RainbowDash above glorious Gulagistan, the regular tnt'ing of things we had only just finished, the Tranquility Tower, and Pure Logic 2.0's unprecedented rapid expansion... and I remember 2011's avatar, when the guidelines on what was considered "acceptable" on the forums were so much more lax.

So many hilarious memories. Thanks for bringing this up Lynx.

I am really not sure of how long I played on minerealm. It was my first and now only server I play on. I remember picking out a realm near where my brother lived. I remeber walking there and back to spawn several times (x = 1500, z = 75). I remember the waterslide at spawn, foxtopia, NTC and the nether portal when it was directly accross from the water slide (first time I logged in). I remember my brother giving me like 3K credits so I could buy my first realm (he bought it for me and is got disbanded). I remember the castle realm that my brother helped build disband. I remember my brother's COD friend getting banned. I remember the second great wipe. I had moved to the other side of the map (x=5000), and my original home, now disbanded, was gone. I remember my brother traveling with me to my new home. I remember buying my second, third and forth realms with him. I remember the updates for enchanting, villagers and new crops to farm. There is probably just as much that I have forgotton but I have enjoyed it all!

Wow. All these memories everyone had of this server... It's beyond impressive. Loving the nostalgic feel. I can only wish I had started playing back in those early days o the server. My first memory of this server is terrible.
I was loading the game, ready to start something amazing in a new world. I joined the game and the first glimpses I had of Minerealm...
Everything was on fire, players burned and sizzled in agony of lava, no place was safe from players driven mad by greed. Chat had been obliterated by the tolls of a thousand deaths of those "who tried to swim in lava". I frantically searched for safe haven, finding it no where, as the world was ablaze.
Ya I joined on December 21,2012. Not the best time I'm sure.

Alls you youngsters have got teh server all jim-jammed! (Except Keyhen and Ryu)

I remember fighting with Kress, which was oddly fun, and my first store that derped and was stolen from every 10 minutes (literally) because it was within 100 blocks from spawn. I even remember Kress's nickname for me: Oversized water hog . And my derped attempt at getting him banned with this:
