EE was the first server I started playing on. That was after the reset and the LInebacker was the biggest and strongest pirate. I can still get flashbacks and nightmares from my first encounters with this ship!
It was also the ship that encouraged me to get better at building effective ships that still looked good. It ended up with a cruiser that I used mostly to farm pirates on EE, but when 2 linebackers showed up, I was in trouble.
