The new forums will be named Coin Return (based on the most recent vote)! You can check on the status and timeline of the transition to the new forums here.
The Guiding Principles and New Rules document is now in effect.
I've been meaning to do this for awhile now, I doubt I will get many players due to Hellgate:London coming out shortly, oh well, here it goes.
So let's get started, the people of you who want to play post your xfire names (if you want to) and your Diablo 2 account name/character names.
Last time we played on HC and well needless to say it didn't end pretty. You guys can play on Normal or Hardcore it doesn't matter to me as I will be playing both.
I also thought that we could make an account and put items on the account that we will never use. So if someone joined late or one of us made a new character we would have few items. If we do end up doing this and you place an item on the account consider it gone. I don't want bitching.
I will play on either US East or West. I suggest we wait a little bit and see where the majority want to play and play with them.
Hey, I'd love to play. I have a level 18-ish holy freeze/zeal pally named Treznor on USEast, account name treznor. I think I also have a low level druid but I forget its name.
Edit: pally is non ladder, druid is ladder by accident
I'm on west from time to time. Ladder. SC. I'd play HC if we could get a gang going like last time. My account is *themightypuck8 (I can't resolve to let my old chars die).
Edit: I think I'm gonna go hunt for screenies of old friends like Snapchip Schatter and Thresh Socket.

You tempt me. Oh do you tempt me.
The last time I took part in a PA Game On for Diablo 2 I had a necromancer made who could raise an army of crazy shit. Mostly meat shields (well, as much as feeble skeletons are allowed; the reviving of monsters was great), but everyone got a kick out of it.
I play on US East Ladder, have a level 87 Sorc with nice gear.
I would play hardcore too if anyone is up for it; that sounds like a lot of fun.
Also; we should all make Pally's with different Auras... that way we would have a BILLIONAZ to all damage, attack, defense, resistance and awesomeness.
I'd actually like to do this, but there's no way I'm starting hardcore from scratch for the billionth time. If someone wants to grush me or something, I'll play, but I need a character to farm with because my favorite sorc build is pretty gear dependent and basically impossible to play hardcore without having some early game gear laid out or being useless and whacking trash mobs with a staff while everyone else does all the work.
Last night I jogged my little Amazon through the first few Act 1 Quests. She's going to be Charged Strike + Lightning Fury + Freezing Arrow for lightning immunes. I don't get my main Javelin skills for several levels yet, but we're off to a good start. It looks like her play style will be a little less, well, vanilla than my Werewolf Druid (melee, melee, melee -- with some pets, happily). I'll make a point of being on East at 8PM EST in PA1/wang tonight.
I for one will not be participating in any Hardcore. D2 works astonishingly well with my gimped college internets, probably because it was designed for puny little dial-up modems rather than ginormous broadband lines, but I still lock up and get kicked off the server from time to time. Permadeath under such circumstances would not agree with me at all.
I started playing this again on a LAN with my girlfriend recently. Diablo 2 and the Expansion both cost me $40 at the time I went and got them, but I would argue that they have been my greatest gaming purchase, ever. It has been like 7 years and I'm still playing it. (On and off, but still.)
So far I've made a bone necro, avenger, hammerdin and cleric. She has made a strafer, blizzard sorc, necro summoner and frenzy barb. Our equipment mostly sucks since it is a LAN, but we're still having fun. I must admit, I'm kind of regretting having never tried the avenger or hammerdin on battle.net, where I might have been able to equip them decently.
I will not go back to this game, but i will offer the full looting of my account if it still exists (there is some juicy stuff there).

USEAST, Softcore, non-ladder. Although there are a few ladder items in there.
edit: im actually gonna log in and see if its still active. Still though, feel free to take whatever.
edit2: all characters still active!
edit 50billion: Strange, I know they did a ladder reset in June, and my characters are all older than that... but it doesn't want to let me join non-ladder games. Strange...
Yeah I don't know, something is fucked with all my characters. When I join a game that is in the list, I join non ladder games, as I should. But when I type a specific game in, it tells me I can't join a non-ladder game as my characters are all ladder.

But they went through the ladder reset....
Weird. Can you join a specific ladder game?
Also, it looks like I may not be on tonight like I said before. My internets are locked up downloading HG:L for the next few hours.
I remember the last time I played I made an amazon who did virtually no damage for the entire game after act 3 and I had to stick with my sorceress friend until we finally got boned by Hell. What a frustrating game.

Also, ChoedanKal, level 6ish Lightning Sorceress on West.
Account name is Korendil on both sides, and all my characters are non-HC ladder.
I think you should add some pictures to the OP and extol Diablo II's virtues. Maybe you will stir up some nostalgia and get more players.
The game I am currently in is pa1/wang (East and Ladder)
My account name is faded321 and my only character is Violynt level 2.

I HAD some characters a while ago, but they are now long gone. I might decide to start one up again, thanks to this thread. >.<

Might not be in it long but I'll sure try :P

Maybe this is the problem, was pa1/wang originally a ladder game?
If so the problem is that I am an idiot. ;-)
