I used to take everyone in this site seriously, and believe every voice follow the universal law of logic. I was so wrong

But its not like I will have any kind of relation with this people, just have to warn myself dont mimic them

For something ingame.
I deleted my frist char cause I found someone with the exact same look

Only to end up deleted the replace char later....and go back for the first look...3 monthes this took

Yep.

N/Me: switching my build from curses to death (MM) and forgetting to set the attributes. That level 3 flesh golem is so puny. This was in the Boreas Seabed mission. Luckily I had a couple of interrupts so I wasn't completely (almost) worthless.

Mo/Me: switching from prot to heal and noticing that I am healing for 40 health instead of higher numbers. This was in Abaddon's Mouth. It seemed all I was doing was emergency bandaids while the doc (the other monk) was doing all the work.

Going in discussion with anyone ingame.
Still do it alot :/

A simple thing: When logged in, make sure you log in with the right char, also when map traveling, make sure you pick the right district, mistakes I do often and since my computer isn't the fastest it takes quite some time.

Step One: Decide to take advantage of the extension of the Winterfest holiday by gathering enough Gargoyle Skulls to trade for enough Spiked Eggnog to gain the drunkard title for a neglected Toon.

Step Two: Spend all ingame time for the next couple days farming skulls without taking the time to trade for Nog figuring it would be more satisfying do it all at once.

Step Three: Log in and realize that you had your dates screwed up and Winterfest had ended before you managed to trade out for a single tankard of Nog. Look in your inventory at the three stacks off skulls (a bunch of which you didn’t even need but your anal retentiveness made you complete that third stack)

Step Four: Weep quietly to yourself and then advertise your idiocy by posting the foible on the forum at guildwarsguru.com.

Well, you could always save them for next year.

Had my attributes as 15 heal, 11 divine favor and 10 inspiration and going into a mission as a bonder. Thank God and Anet for skill templates.

Step Five: Store or Sell excess Gargoyle skulls (there's always next year)

TheRaven · Jan 12, 2007, 10:49 PM // 22:49

Hmm, not really a mistake but this is probably the reason why I'll never ever pay for a run.

I was doing a low level quest with 2 other low level folks and 1 level 20 Warrior. We were in the breach area fighting the Charr and the 20 Warrior was running on ahead to the lowlands.

Battle goes someone like this
Kill Charr....Kill Charr....crappy sword drops....Kill Charr...pick up sword....Kill Charr...Charr Carving drops...Kill Charr...pick up carving...Kill Charr...Black Dye Drops.....Warrior Zones into lowlands. AAAAARRRRGHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!

Kook~NBK~ · Jan 12, 2007, 11:04 PM // 23:04

I've got another one! (yay, me! - or maybe not)

There I was, (not so) deep in the heart of Joko's Domain. I'm on a mission to finally capture elite skill number 290, "Soldier's Fury" from Arneh the Vigorous. The battle raged for 2 or 3 minutes, and me and my henchies pulled off a narrow victory! YAY, time to cap the skill. I hit the signet of capture, and in my excitement, I snagged "go for the eyes" instead!!!

Sir Skullcrasher · Jan 12, 2007, 11:18 PM // 23:18

Ouch, I hate losing black dye drops!

trobinson97 · Jan 13, 2007, 05:17 AM // 05:17

Well this one didn't happen to me, but a friend of mine once deleted her character the first time she died in post searing. it was to get rid of the dp!
I lol'd at her for a very long time.

Sasuke The Betrayer · Jan 13, 2007, 05:31 AM // 05:31

lol. Well... for me it has to be during the time I quit, and returned, I decided to make a new character and deleted it. It was a PvP mule with all of my warrior's EVENT HATS AND WEAPONS noooooooooo...........

Korean Xunlai Agent · Jan 13, 2007, 05:32 AM // 05:32

Lol this might take up a couple of pages

-- First month playing I didnt realize that I could use the skillbar
So basically for 30 days or so I didnt use any skill [frenzy power strike (i was a warrior) etc.]

--First 5 Months PvE
I didnt buy 1 salvage kit or identification kit because I didnt know what they did.. When someone started to talk to me at Beacons Perch about this they just laughed at me and told me what the things did

--First PvP Guild
Honestly I cant even remember the name of the guild anymore but I think that it was called Starlight Executioners [sE]but i know it wasnt because Executioners just doenst sound right ANYWAY
We got to like rank 85 at best on the guild ladder
I was in The Hall of Heroes with a pug team that I had made and they were the red team and I was the yellow team and we decided to gank the blue team
BUT what they didnt realize is that instead of agreeing to that we started to attack the RED TEAM being my guild while the blue team was attacking team too.. so in the end my PUG team ended up winning the match and we held for like 5 times or something idk its been awhile

--Gaile Gray msg
LOL I was in a pug for Tombs [HA] awhile ago and someone msg'ed Gaile from the team and told her to "Suck his dick"
We all laughed about it and in about 2 minutes he was temporarly banned from the game
So I decided it would be a good idea to send Gaile the same msg and in a matter in 30 seconds I was banned

--Scammage
I did the Thirsty River scam where you tell someone put their items on the rock and then you teleport them to the movie at the ghostly hero [got banned for it.. think it was like 500 hours total]

--Teleporting teams
Lol I dont think that it was really a bad idea because it was generally funny as hell
But before they changed Heroes Asent to Heroes Asent back when it was The Tomb of Primeval Kings you could teleport PvE players back to the Dragons Lair .. So I gather up all the PvE players that I could find and teleported them all back to the Dragons Lair and I laughed
But in about 20 seconds I recieved about 500 msgs from a million different people that were telling me to go suck my dick and to fack myself and etc. and so on

--Running people and letting them pay at the end of the run
So I was running people to ToA back when it was like a 3k run or whatever it was
I had a full group and I said naw you guys dont worry about payment until we get there
So exactly when we get there everyone leaves the group and i got 0 gold

I tried to msg them but they were all either Ignoring me or Offline

Anyway thats all for now Im sure that I will end up remembering more for a later time
enjoy the reading material

arcanemacabre · Jan 13, 2007, 05:40 AM // 05:40

Yeah, I uhh... well, I was trying out a hammer build with my warrior. I had remembered to switch out my gear (stonefist gloves and Hammer Mastery helm), change all my skills, even save the build for future use. Then when I went out to try it, in DoA no less, and wondered why the heck it was taking too long to kill even a monk.

So, later I change back to axe, changing gear and all that, and proceeded to curse myself after we went out because I had just then remembered to change my attributes back to axe - only to find out that I never changed them out of axe to begin with. Yeah...

ateddybear · Jan 13, 2007, 07:51 AM // 07:51

Bought black dye and applied them to my scars, which are black by default -.- thinking it would make it a darker black.

4 days into the game? lol

Maria Moon · Jan 13, 2007, 06:43 PM // 18:43

well lol ok this may sound weird, but here it goes

i was on a run with my monk, and halfway through the area he asks us to pay,..everyone pays, but i realize i did not bring my money with me, so i tell him i will pay at the end of the run, of course he does not believe me, dont blame him to be honest, then,.. i decide to give him some "reassurance" by giving him my armor until the the end of the run, now this armro had like 1 run on it at the time , ya lol anyway, we get to the last stop, so i place the full amount of platinum in the trade window,,4 mins later he says nothing but repeatedly shuffling between the storage and me, i am wispering him asking him if something is wrong, when i get a replay like "pjfwa" and suddenly he logs off and leaves my monk all alone in her cloth and tattered bandage fun

also something that i am sure must be mentioned somewhere else is that when it comes to people who are looking for ways to trouble others, spamming, scamming etc most of the time with a few *exceptions* they really dont give dam about wat you think of them, and as hard as it may be to reply with a witty comment to their wispers, just stick em on ignore, its tempting not to but really i wasted too much of my playing time trying to "convert" these people to not do these things or trying to argue with them etc, i believe someone in the forums has a very nice signature about argueing with "idiots" sorry cant remember exactly,

but a nice bunch of stuff from the rest of you guys, very interesting

Maria The Princess · Jan 13, 2007, 09:13 PM // 21:13

it was my first ever HA match, also my first ever PvP (pre searing match doesnt count i guess)

my team secided to do a ranger spike build (if you dont know what it is, all rangers must fire together at a specific target) . i had no idea what it is and i decided that my group would benefit the most if i would kill the monk while there fighting the others. so i targeted the monk, and ran straight in the ennemy team to kill it (monk was far in the backline). of curse i got spiked right away with Orbs and such and my team got a good laugh.
