When I 1st started to collect rare items, I paid 40e for a q8 gold Stormbow, only to realize it's inherent didn't say +15/50...it said +15%/when hexed...

Moral of the story, when your tired...GO TO BED! Man I felt like a noob.

i didnt really have bad ingame things happened, a few, but not that bad

however, 1 bad thing happened to me, which made me play perfect world right now (free MMO), that was that most nice people i know left the game, while i needed their help, as things got harder to me (like HM and dungeons and such), and the few who still play are either always busy, or dont feel for going for the same stuff they did back then

even though i hate elitism, thats not what made the game bad for me, its that people who helped me back then, left the game... too bad

oh yea, 1 more thing i almost forgot was:

i was in vizunah for my very first time, so had no clue
then i saw another team, a german team (just saying that cuz i remember it), and i asked: what do i have to do? they said: oh its a noob... and all left

it was a full human team, so i was alone with my henchies, and for my doing back then, i got pretty far, which was the 2nd fight i think, but died there

from that day on, i hated pugs, i did get pugs after that for some, but after i saw so many pugs fail, i quit using pugs

I learned this too by myself waking up and realizing i've got scammed when trading not-so-fully-awake.

Finding out you can not duplicate the wonderful bone white color for necros from the old mixed dye days under the new dye system

Forming up a new guild with a group of buddies in 2006 for some GvG action, going 29-0 over the course of the weekend, making it into the top 200, only to get facerolled in < 5 minutes by that top five guild that was running IWAY at the time (can't remember the name now).

That had to be the low in my GW playing career.

You're probably talking about [Cute]. A lot of people at the time felt the same way.

bad times.

had a trial run set up for vD in about 08 or 09, then my vent crashed and despite installing / uninstalling it again / asking current guildies for help etc. could not get it working again, so I missed out on the chance to play with / hopefully join vD

My low was constantly facing r-spike and IWAY teams in HA. At first it was funny and troll-worthy but then it just got really tedious. The same people playing the same thing over and over again. I couldn't be bothered to play against such idiots all the way to 4600+ fame required for teh tiger.

I remember playing iway in TA twice ever - one of the funniest and most fun times ever. my first time as a warrior!

Right as my ranger got far into prophecies (still kinda a noob) I got into a Barrage/pet team for Nightfallen Tombs.
First time we had 3 people leave right at the end.
Second time I had to leave because my in-laws were visiting.
It was over 3 years before I bothered (plus I learned the rewards for it weren't much after time)

pedrobds · Jul 06, 2011, 05:16 AM // 05:16

Getting scammed out of 300k when that was a lot of money to me (that i had worked hard for over 2 years). Coming back and working for 8 months to gather 1000e and having it stolen by a "friend"... who hasn't been scammed though...

One time in RA I called called a noob and it really hurt my feelings.

StormDragonZ · Jul 06, 2011, 07:21 AM // 07:21

Worst thing that happened to me in game? That's easy.

Trying to cap Panic in Hell's Precipice and forgetting to change my secondary to Mesmer.

Now apply that at a time before Nightfall came out.

Now apply that as happening not once, but three times.

hehe, I remember doing noobie things like that as well;
Attempt 1: Run out look for that remote boss clear the whole area and notice you have an active quests that causes the boss not to spawn.
Attempt 2: Run out again after completing/abandoning the quest, look for that remote Prophs boss again, kill it and notice you forgot to take a cap signet.
Attempt 3: Run out once again, this time with a cap sig, search for that randomly spawning boss once again, click on cap sig and notice you have the wrong secondary profession.
Attempt 4: Randomly spawning boss is being even more annoying than usual because he has spawned in the last searched location out of 6 possibilities....

Youve just got to love Prophs bosses and their random spawning possibilities

I got hacked last week.
I got taken for 150K, my Obby armor and my Vabbian armor.
It's all replacable, just disappointing that it happened to me.
From the look of it, they used my necro as a bot farmer, because I had a bunch of golds I didn't before.

Also part of the anti-seconday capping club. xD
More time than I care to admit.

Accidentally sold an unded mini kuunvang for 100g+2e to a scammer, thought I was smarter than that :'(

Ummm.... that gives me a pretty big WTF moment. Were you so absorbed in playing GW, or was your wife so irritated with you? (On second thoughts dont answer that... )

My worst moment in GW was, as many have already said, being scammed. But as its all just pixels you should be able to get over it and learn from your mistakes (being hacked is something different though... reading all the hack reports made me split up my collections over multiple accounts so that the chance of being robbed of absolutely everything is lowered)
