Ate nothing but ramen packets for my entire freshman year and pocketed my lunch money to pay for the monthly subscription.

I remember putting on rice on the stove while playing Luclin and forgot it on and had to throw it out. Then I made a new try and forget that one to and burned it. Then I made a third try and then I went to sleep forgetting the stove and found it in the morning the rice was totally black and kitchen was full of smoke.

During OoW, I became friends with one of the best geared rogues on the server, and he gave me his account info. A couple weeks later, I stole his gnome mask and barbarian mask.

Felt kinda bad, but never got caught.

I think some people in this thread are mistaking it for a douche-bag confessional. I guess it's a good guide on who to avoid on P99 so thanks for the info.

I'd play for hours because the light wouldn't wake my parents up. It's funny because that is how I learned to type!!! I love EQ! So many good memories. Anyone have something that is funny that you did because of EQ?

Convinced my parents to get a second phoneline so I could play on dialup while they still could use the phone, I guess? But then I just used the phone to talk to my buddy while we were both playing EQ anyway.


Craziest thing I ever did in EQ was on P99 really. Camped my first jboots on the server back in like, pre-kunark, by staying up overnight and taking 15-minute cat naps between spawns on my office floor... heh.


Not really very crazy.
