Most of my nutties were on Live during the first couple of weeks after release.

Ran up over a hill to come face to face with Froon and Choon. I literally shit a diamond. On the CR I got the brilliant idea that I could sneak up behind them, you know, because they couldn't see me since they were standing there facing the other direction. Yeah, no. That was a re-roll.

I used to think that if you were standing on the spawn points, mobs wouldn't spawn. We also used to leave rooms in Blackburrow in an attempt to entice them to come back sooner. We never understood why that never worked because it made perfect sense to us at the time.

Splitpaw. The original one. I would go out there and solo the surface gnolls for hours, even days, collecting up rusty drops for cash (Gold pieces! Holy shit!) and literally walking back (heavily encumbered) to Qeynos because I thought the only place you could sell was in cities. Let's not stop there. I got the bright idea that I could probably run to Qeynos and back twice in the time it took me to walk once, so I figured I could hide half my bags in a tree and then come back and get them. I spent an hour finding a tree I could get up into and dropped half my bags (full of coveted rusty loot) on a pixelated limb. I was right about the run, and I thought I was really something for my ingenious idea. I got back and couldn't find my bags. I raged and raged thinking someone had stolen them. Petitioned and waited for hours, raging more.

That was when I found out from a guide about what they called "decay".

I think that was my first of a half a dozen rage quits.
