Ok, bored so its another lame post time.

Competition, Descibe an in game mistake you have made that has cost you or your group dearly...

Things that spring to mind are misplaced AoE spells, destroying or selling nice rare drops, or anything that you can think of thats funny....

Posts on the boards seem to be drying up a bit.... There used to be loads of funny flaming....

Let's see misplaced AoE spells... the best was fighting in spraggon den, a room with 8 of the neutral scorpion things (I forget their name). We attacked, about 3 or 4 agged... I though "my it would be comical to PBAE this room..." BOOM, quickcast, BOOM, and it was one dead eldritch + group soon after. It was quite funny though. :D

Well, once i was with a group hunting near the cliffe dwellers north-west of north tnn. There were six of us searching for fog wraiths which were quite a nasty con at the time.

I remember running in front of the pack getting quite excited at the prospect of meeting one of these beasts as someone typed something along the lines of "slow down there jable". i had the numlock on so i was able to type and run, and i quickly typed a reply, something along the lines of "its ok, im being careful".

imagine my surprise as i look back at the screen (can't touch-type) to see ive run over the crest of a hill and head-long into a fog wraith. seconds later it was cleaning its teeth with my mace :(

Just remembered a time when after hunting fog wraiths again for ages, and everyone making close to a level in our group of 8, we decided to try koalinth caverns for the first time. was meant to be just a quick look...

turned out everything in koalinth was blue to us, so we ventured inside, killing easily untill we got to a strange area with a pit at one end full of lots of crabs (they conned purple/red and there were many). we peered over the edge and someone commented on the amount of crabs and the fact they appeared to be scuttling.

little did we know the bloody things were scuttling up a ramp to us, somehow we had managed to pull the lot. exit stage right, with nearly everyone dieing in a mad screaming rush to get the feck out of there :)

Oh, its very easy to do f8 fuck ups when you lead with a dot that makes mobs un mezzable tfor over 30 seconds :)

As for selling drops, well ask matinex :)

Although i sold Nasco's spear half way through the quest ....

More normal ones are forgetting to turn effects off before coming anywhere near a mid, and the ever popular "You can't heal the dead" :)

Here goes

Might as well tell the world :).

I was in odin and I had to go afk for a while, so I decided to sit inside the Glaciar Giants foot. When I get back after around 2 minutes I have a group of 8 middies passing by, green/grey so I thought it would be fun to kill em :). So I press f8 and select a middie, kill him. Then when im in attack mode I thought it would be dumb to press f8 cause I might select the GG. So instead of pressing f8 I try to press the next middie. The only problem was that the GG actually covered the whole area so I did select him after all, and stomp, stomp i died :). I had a good laugh and im sure the middies did as well :).

One of my more unfortunate blunders was when I was leading a lowbie group into the pit in Coru just to hunt a little, we had a really hard time getting into the pit and when we finally reached the Abysmals and Weeweres and was ready to start the real hunt I was showing a guy that tried to get out of the pit the floor bug ..

"It's easy, you just follow the line like this -- splosj!"

And whoops I was back in Ardee with a leaderless, tankless lowbie group left in Coru without no idea how to get out or what to do furious at me, supposedly leaving them becouse they were lowbies and a poor bogger left that did'nt understand how I managed to get out.

Not very funny but definately a screw up :p

1 word: Spriggit! :)
Pulling that guy with a group that could barely take on spraggonix and winning, then seeing the entire dungeon rush at your group!

Pulling 2 grand pookas + 6 finliaths was a bit much once too :)
Don't think I ever saw a group go down that fast :)

Getting killed by a bunch of greens with an average lvl 49 group at the start of EZ was kind of embarassing too lol

Hmm lemme think....

Does sheer stupidity count? Leading an exp-hungry group of 5 lev +/- 26 players into Treibh Calleigh from Innins, the southroute tru multiple dark purple-argo mobs...? :uhoh: :eek6: :(
By the time we arrived i'd killed my bro (Yakkie) and the other party members so many times.... even hours of exping wouldn't make it up. :rolleyes:

Oopz? Sorry guys.... :D

Didn't know walking down from Connla was 1000x easier. :p

Good thing I can rez... I think.

Got alot of :twak:

Somehow I never get killed. It just ain't fair ;)

Ok here is quite possibly the worst case of solo (and persistent)idiocy you may well ever hear (my excuse is that it was really late/early)...

BM hunting fishing bears that con yellow doing ok feeling good.

Had a bad fight (anger sprites join in) and died, np it happens. /Release run back and find the bugger that did it - have at him...die

Release run back and find the bugger that did it - have at him...die
but he only beats me by a slither so -
Release run back and find the bugger that did it - have at him...die he seemee to do much more damage to me much quicker...

Do this in total 6 times, my performance getting gradually worse each time..hmmmm

This guy MUST be conning wrong to me...no yellow bear can dis me so often so well....?can mobs get buffs?

After the 6th death go afk for a drink...Come back and DOH! go to healer get "CON" back...

Visit the bear and slice it up...and then all his friends too:D

............(cough) /emote great embarrasment...

My biggest mistake i reckon must be pretty common.....

my druid tells the group at parth farm...

'its ok im highly specced in regrowth, i have an insta shout as well if things go bad'

then three parths come... i realise i aint healing as good as expected as everyone starts dying only to notice i had the wrong quick toolbar up and i had given buffs big time to the group

ooppsss wasnt the last time that has happened either


they all bithced at me for it which was i thought inconsidered since the majority of peeps quite like getting buffs!!!!!!!! :) and even thank you for it! not this time.



My druid will remain nameless!

ahem 'Duit'
