I actually started the game at NA launch, but I didn't hit 75 til end of August. I was a really slow player to start with, I didn't unlock Paladin until the 30th of December (and I did it the day after I got Lv30 -- soloed it spending every penny I had on silent oil and invis powder)
I think I hit 50 PLD by Feburary though, at that point I was told to wait for some friends to catch up to perm with them all, so i stayed 50 PLD for a month til March. March til April the perm was both good and bad, we made like 5k/hour, but we only exped for like 1-2 days a week, and only for like an hour or two because of so many conflicting schedules. It was cool because we could perm to get AF coffers for us all, but then people had to take vacactions and stuff, so those 1-2 days a week became 0 days a week, pissed people off and we split the perm @ 56.
May came, University ended, and I had like 4 months til it started again, so I became an exp machine, decided I had lots of lost exp to make up for. :P I would have liked to have not stopped at Feb and carried on, I could have hit 75 a lot earlier maybe.
But for people who really give a damn about all this, I was intending to write a big "1 year summary" for my 1 year anniversary, which is 1st Nov, I missed halloween because of waiting to import. :P
