I was a noobie about a month after Kunark released. Had made an Iksar necro and had only seen the Field of Bone and Kurns Tower. Was part of a roleplaying PVP iksar only guild on RALLOS ZEK and we used "softskins" like slaves. One of the "softskins" that roleplayed as a servant to us was Whysler the bard. He said, "Soulsick, have you ever been to the Overthere?" I'm like uhhh Im not so sure I wanna leave my safezone here. He proceeds to teach me autofollow and runs me through Warsilks Woods. I had no clue where I was! Just braches hitting me in the face and I was sure death was to follow along with never finding my corpse again! We arrive in the Overthere and I see Rhinos and Chickens for the first time! I was taking screenshots of the fights to take to other guys I played EQ with at work, who were all noobs as well.
This was the first time I realized, man, I have no clue what I've gotten myself into.

On the first day of release there was a massive blob of little level one, two and three dwarves attempting to hop the boat out of Butcherblock. When the boat was in sight, someone aggrod the aquagoblin wizard. Half the crowd was slaughtered before the boat left BB. Then the boat lagged in OOT dropping another bunch of people overboard where they aggrod something. Whatever it was then proceeded to fly through the air (pretty sure it was a shark) devastating the helpless dwarves stuck on the boat, while others jumped off in an attempt to save themselves. When the boat zoned into EFP I hopped off the boat happy to get onto dry land but missed the docks. Spent the next 20 seconds trying to figure out how to swim up to the top. "You are now entering Butcherblock Mountains."

Astar Nooooooo!
