Hey! I had a similar thread on Tibiopedia years ago, but almost all screenshots there are unavailable as the hosting (tinypic) is dead.
I will present to you my collection of screens from times where Tibia was extremely popular and 50k players online weren’t anything strange. Screenshots were taken on various servers and test-servers, but the majority of them is from Trimera.
Let’s start with my 1st screenshot ever – 20.03.2005, client 7.4. My level was around 15 and this is my first char which I play till today. I just had a namelock. The strange thing is that if you look for “Church Master” on tibia.com, it will still redirect you to Bosst, even though it has been 4 years since the namelock.
Each knight should have his own “UHmaker”, so I also created a druid to make runes. UHs were like 100 gp each, so that was a good way to save some hard-earned gold.
And one of my first hunts. I liked Femor Hills, as I could get some exp on goblins and train on rotworms in caves below. Btw, I saved for one week to buy this fire sword for 6k. 🙂
-
Fermor Hills, aaah the memories, I felt like I spent way too much of my time on carlin and hardly ever had explored the rest of Tibia! Thanks for the post!!
-
Same situation here, but I avoided Thais and Venore due to massive gs luring, back in the day.
I really miss it though – the thrill of the adventure, just by travelling from one city to another.
Time for another few screenshots.
My 1st self-made bp of HMMs. Look at the trade offers on default chat.
And my 1st looted plate armor. 🙂
Random lvl near the entrance to Elvenbane dungeon.
50 sword fighting, I really didn’t like to train. Trimera was a pvp server so being afk even for a few minutes could easily result in being PKed.
-
My first paladin. I wanted to learn how to play with all vocations.
Random screenshot from depo in Carlin.
The number of skulls on the ground amazed me. Their sprite was scary though.
Random dp situation. Someone being teleported, some red skull being attacked. Quite a lot of well-known Trimera players here too.
And ranodm pk being punished. People enjoyed the show. 🙂
-
Screenshots from my friend’s (Evil Leol) wedding. My nick was Church Master, so obviously I was a priest. 🙂
There were quite a lot of people, after the ceremony there was a party and we drank a bit. If I remember well, some random high level jumped in and started to attack us, as we had white skulls, but finally didn’t kill anyone. I had to leave, but the party went on and there also was a football match upstairs. I have some of my friend’s screenshots, so I’ll post them as well.

Great times, I still remember playing on my first server Elysia. Back then I was probably max level 20-30. Unfortunetly I have no old pictures
“Church Master, so obviously I was a priest”
This made me laugh 😀Thanks for sharing!
-
Great screenshoots! I really enjoed watching them. A lot of nostalgia there 🙂 Would love to see more of it.

@RestlessDean
My rl friend who got me into Tibia told me to choose this nick, saying that I’m too religious >.>
I didn’t care as I only wanted to play. 😀 Later on, in 2017 or so I got namelocked.Thank you. 🙂 There will be much more.
Let’s start with my first frags ever. They were hunting on Femor Hills and I killed them for absolutely no reason. They just had some daggers and leather armors with them so afterwards I felt remorse…
My first lootbag ever, from Kazz mines if I remember well. I also bought my first pacc, being lvl 28 or something.
Level 30 and making nice cash on Darashia rotworms 🙂 some eq upgrades as well
And my first really valuable loot – war hammer! I later used it on my druid to hunt rotworms and make UHs to double profit.
-
I’ll say it once again – great screenshoots! Especially this ‘neostrada timer’ – and this strange router sound when it was connecting with Internet 😀 post more!

@bosst
Great pictures! War hammer was special, one of my friends had that and boh. I remember only having premium one month after convincing my parents to pay. I had no way to pay at that time 😀 -
Ahh, thanks 😀 I loved neostrada cause it allowed me to start playing Tibia, not only watching my friends having fun. And hated it cause I often died due to random kicks.
@RestlessDean
Thanks, well boh were pro item, getting 35k while having 30 lvl was kinda hard…
I also had some problems with premium back then, my parents didn’t even know. Funny times.
~~~~~~
60 sword fighting, after about ~4 months of playing. I was very proud 🙂
Dragon hunt with my friend, his ds and my badger 😀
Broken amulet was legendary even back then. The price was around 1kk, which was a horrific amount of money even for high lvls.
And my rookstayer. Rook was very crowded back then and I used to play around luring, killing ppl with poison, creating death traps… I loved getting apples from killed players. I still have 16 on this char. Well, I’m sure they thought of Rookgaard as of place to remember. 😛

Neostrada TP, UO Screenshot Utility… say no more.
I think my oldest screenshot would be this (Nov’05). Actually, my colleague made it, I’m Gromoslav here. Funny thing is I left Rookgaard at level 11. That’s because he told me that I have to collect at least 2k gp on rook, before going to mainland, in order to by some eq from the start. So as a knight I had 30hp less than normally on certain level. Made level 32 with this character, mostly on swamp trolls and dwarves. Unfortunately this particular account’s been deleted ages ago due to inactivity and never having premium there. Was a proud owner of following set: Warrior Helmet, Crown Armor, Knight Legs, Bright Sword, Vampire Shield – slowly earned in Kazo.

Thanks a lot for the screenshot and story. This is really great and brings back nice memories. Which server was that?
Feel free to post more of them if you have any. Btw. my friend also told me something like that “you need at least 1k before you leave rook”. So it took me a week to leave and get that money.
Anyway, Vujitsu’s post finally motivated me to post something. 🙂
My first crystal coin. Yeah, that’s just 10k, but back then it meant much too me. I mostly earned it by selling bps of HMM.
I started to capture my highest hits:
And this is my first orc raid on Thais. I can’t remember if I killed even one orc cause I was too scared to venture too far from gates. Anyway, it was a huge event where literally half of the server participated in:
And now, my first looted red gem. I knew that it was super rare stone golem’s loot, so that was really surprising. And it instantly went to my house as a deco.
I bought a pacc being lvl 28, so I quickly found a new hobby – scarab/scarab coin digging. Chill and stable profit. I made a few lvls just doing it.
And the last one for now. Check how tibia.com looked back then during major updates:
-
That was Danubia. At a time when the highest level on server was 150+ and there were 5 levels 200+ in Tibia. Unfortunately the rest of screenshots I can find are at least year 2006 or later and don’t have that really archaic look.
Interesting image I can share is death log of my noob char, when Orshabaal first visited Furora. It was lured to the very stairs that go out into plains north of Edron (form passage with wyvern spawn upstairs).
This screen also reminds of two sites with a lot of old stuff:
http://www.tibia-alumni-society.net/cobalt-tower/
https://www.nightmareknights.com/
Might share some more noob stories some time soon.
