Whenever I go to a minstrel in Camelot or Gothwaite for speed, I always /hug them afterwards. I think it started off when I was really new to the game and I used to /bow or things like that to anyone who gave me anything, so the habit stuck, even with npcs. And now if I dont do it, it feels really impolite!

Hahaha that is so cute... I'm going to start doing that as well from now on!

btw <3 Galadry long time no see

I go in the house, take my boots off, go downstairs and put my weapons away in the vault, go upstairs to the bedroom, take my clothes off, sit on the bed, /kiss the stuffed badger in the corner....and then /quit. Is that wrong?

Poor fucking badger irl :(

I always blow the Green Knight a kiss - he's the only thing in the Frontiers that never tries to stab, nuke or eat me.

I'd never join in killing him :)

its like the old good luck charm out side of sheeroe hills, forgotten his name, luri, part of an epic quest. anyway, every time i go there i have to /wave to him, otherwise i think i will get pwned.

on my INF if i kill someone i re-envenom as normal, but i only use 3 weapons and if the 3rd was not even used i re-apply envenom to keep the numbers equal (3 poisons for 3 weapons)

also sometimes i envenom my weapons and then im unsure so i re-envenom the whole set again!

I used to do similar with my BG1 Inf - would envenom every 2 minutes as I was never sure if I had actually just envenomed or if I was thinking about doing it - could go through it a hundred times without killing anyone prob :)

Quite often at the end of an evening I will port to my house and log there because I have a porter there and vault in case I need to grab anything next time I logon - but here is the thing - I always catch myself goin into the house before I log, soon as I get in I /quit - and then always think why did I do that because when I log back in - I am outside the house again.. yet I keep doing it! Does it make me feel safe logging my char inside his house? Is it an extension of myself and I never sleep outside therefore I feel an urge to do the same for my online persona? WHY WHY WHY??

Anyone else have any odd little habits/routines they go through?

Its the same when people are going AFK... most people sit down whilst AFK (even if full pow/hp etc) ..

I don't always go to housing and log, but when i do, I go inside the house.

And I jump alot -
I jump when I port, I jump when I disband a grp, and I jump when I accept a trade/combine...dunno why, maybe to show 'I'm cool, u're cool, we're cool'
:m00:

I find myself logging inside the house every time. Also avoid walking through people when going through TNN and so on...

I realised yesterday that I am starting to copy emotes in DAoC in real life.

Forgot an important piece of documentation at the post office and thought "doh" and did the EXACT thing a character would do if you typed /doh i.e. smacked my forehead in just the same way. Then felt really silly about it.

doh!

Use /gc in msn conversations is the only thing i can think of, good job the people i mostly talk to on msn are in game friends :). I will be looking out to see if i do the things people mentioned in the thread though.

You guys need to get out more!

I have my /setcamera at maximum panned out range, but even when I press D to reset the camera position, I still find myself scrolling out to 'make sure' it's at maximum range...when it always is!

I also have /stick on the qbar because I was so used to it up to the time you could bind it.
