I handed in the components for not just the cleric quest legs but the boots to the wrong npc and now can't afford more platinum bars. That's the dumbest thing I've done. What about you?

Managed to screw up splitting a 2 mob camp on my necro, then (due to terrible luck, in part) feared the first mob into a camp of about 4-5 extra mobs :D

There was a PLing group taking all the mobs, with 3 empty spots and I had to keep singing them songs in order to join and stay in the group on my bard. I was handed 10 gold and when they were done, they kicked me out of the group and ported without saying a word.

I felt so used.

I didn't stock up before falling asleep last night and Greengrocer ate a bunch of vegetables and drank half a stack of Steamfont Spring Water. Major bummer this morning!

I was working on serious lack of sleep trying to get into the velious beta. Was told on one thread to log onto a live server and /beta twice and then my toon would be copied to the server. I logged an old toon on Firiona Vie and was spamming the hell out of /beta wondering what was wrong.

Took my monk to try and get some medicine bags. Went down to the tunnels in EFP and got killed by a DE that I did not even see. Turns out the bags were not even sold there but in the slums area. Doh!

This can't be true.

Check the velious beta thread and youll see a post from me several days ago asking how long it took to get the message your toon was saved after typing /beta.

Group was wiping in HS south, I was at 15% HP and clicked my WC Cap. Pop up in WC with ignite blood burning through my remaining life. Get down to 1% when a lower level Paladin LoH's me back to full. Oh, that was a good experience, is this the wrong thread?

lol I did the same thing on my shaman back in 2009 - dinged 34, got my first pet, then proceeded to do something stupid and die and couldn't get a rez

Gave an item to what I thought was a new player in good faith , he was very a apreciative, 10 mins later on my alt I see him auctioning it off . Last time I do handouts near EC that's for sure

Dinged my Ogre shaman in oasis and preceded to upper guk. I figured might as well stop by the shaman guild and train dodge. Then I went to the Troll shaman guild ... yea .. troll shamans and ogre shamans don't get along it seems. Oh and I de-lvl'd so I could no longer train dodge.

Similar to me, dinged on my Ogre SK and went to the Troll SK guild, insta killed.

I don't understand why the Dark Elf SK guild will work with me, but the Troll SK guild will not. Don't the Dark Elves dislike Ogres more than the Trolls do?

On live during Velious era I was helping with a ring war in GD. Picked up a pod of water from the snow, figured I'd just force drink it so I click it into my jboots slot right clicked to drink and got the too full message. Clicked the slot again to put my jboots back in but I either missed the click or double clicked, went to destroy the extra water and instead I destroyed my jboots.

Somehow I switched out my CoS with darkforge helm and then proceeded to run straight into KoS city spamming my 5hotkey for invis, cursing, thinking the CoS was bugged or something.

Pulled for a Chardok AOE group, the engage got a little screwy, hopped up right after the mobs were dead - 20 seconds later, more mobs show up and wipe everyone at the zone in. My monitor is now sporting a "/quit" sticky note.

The dumbest thing this week?

That I did NOT call out of work to play more.
...or... maybe it was smoking that cigarette after 6 months of quitting.

Sitting in Permafrost on a mage I haven't played in forever dicking around with a new pet while sitting in the "safe spot" alcove near the doors heading to Vox's chamber. Targeted goblin RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME, told pet to attack, just to see how fast it'll go down. It disappeared. WTF? Waitaminute.... OMFG Click hat ... shit, no charges.... click Gate... sounds of giants running... LOADING PLEASE WAIT...

Second place is zoning into Chardok into a churning mass of mobs and instant LOADING PLEASE WAIT...

Could have been worse. You could have stood up before the first group was dead and instantly tanked your faction.

I couldn't get a group in MM so I decided to go to Unrest and solo/LFG, so I gated out of MM. Once I landed in Neriak, I knew I screwed up.

That awfully similar to the story of Cecily's first pair of Jboots, the dreaded dragon Trakanon, the evil guide Ambrotos who laughed at me for deleting them, and why I stopped foraging with Cec.

Was soloing in CoM on my Shaman trying to level. Was splitting the 2 mobs at the entry and he resisted root. Ran around the corner and started casting root again to split the mobs and at the very last second root was about to land I thought, "How do I have Line of Sight right now?" Rooted myself and didnt have gate up, mobs ate me alive.

Not in the last week but:

Drop transferred a fungi in north freeport, got dced for what I would guess is trying to switch chars too quick, left it on the ground an extra minute :p

I've noticed if I change characters too many times without completely closing my EQ client and then reopening it I'll get DC'd. So if I'm doing a bunch of transfers I periodically completely close out completely(after like 7-8 log overs) and log again to make sure this doesn't happen when it's absolutely vital I can get back in.
