Back in the olden days of RZ, I would guard kill people on purpose. Sometimes I would go for the kill shot, but if I didn't like the look of ya, you would be eating that exp loss. I had my enchanter parked in Highkeep, where I would charm prisoners, and send them on down to the unsuspecting victims leveling off pickclaws. Since my faction was awesome, any guard along the way would assist my prisoner and charge down to the cellar to lay down the law. Line of sight was not needed to cast spells, so in the meantime, I would be up on one of the top floors of Highkeep wall casting my target. Most groups never knew what hit them, and would be shouting "WTF JUST HAPPENED?!"
I used to keep a delvled dorf rogue camped at gobs just to log in and randomly kill everyone

Was good times one shotting sitting casters who didnt keep their see invis up :^)

What my friends and I called "the Teain Scam"

Pre velious, again on the prexus server, a buddy of mine had a lvl 52 ranger named Teain that he had quit playing. Had planer gear, epics, lots of no drop stuff. None of our other friends wanted the account, so we decided to use it for scamming instead.

Find a guy selling something mildly expensive, 25k ish range. Ask the guy "hey man I know this sounds weird, but i'll trade you a lvl 52 ranger for that item, all you gotta do is take over the billing." Usually the guy would suspect a scam, so we'd let him log onto the account, run around for a bit, maybe even give him a few hours to decide. We'd promise to give him all the necessary info once the trade was completed.

Of course, once the trade was completed, we'd change the password and screw the guy.

It worked for a solid couple weeks, but it eventually got to the point where everyone trading in EC was aware of our little game and it stopped working. So then we just ebayed the account.

Back on live (xev server) this was in like 2000 i started in kunark i was about 14 and i thought it was a good idea to sell a cloth shirt as a fungi.

I told the guy i was in a huge hurry to just trade me the money quick before my mom turned the computer off i had it like 10k cheaper than normal cuz of the hurry.

I was on a burn character and my cousin was standing right next to me, took the play traded it to cuz and logged and deleted the guy. Good times.

worst thing i did in eq was when someone in vent dissed my then fiance.

He called her a **** with a slanted pussy.

For some reason he thought this was cool because I didnt react. Then he gave me his account info. I sold his holgresh beads, his fungi, manastone, and blade of carnage.

Fuck that guy.

I enter zones that I have no intention of staying in and do camp checks, then I will claim a camp, usually one that someone is late to calling out, just to start an argument before I zone out or get ported out.

I once pulled off a heist on p99 that landed me an unimaginable fortune....

I was part of a leveling guild with my main level forty warrior and a level 18 or so alt enchanter. One of the officers sold the iksar illusion spell frequently for a price of 2k in EC. I wanted this spell for my enchanter badly, and also felt greedy for 2k, which at the time seemed wealth beyond measure. The officer gave me all the details on how I could solo the quest myself.

A couple days later I was on my enchanter and the officer offered to give away two free copies of the spell. I went and snatched one ASAP on the enc, scribed it, cast it, and logged.

Then I got on my warrior and contacted him again. Since we didn't have a guild roster he did not know who my alt was. I chatted him up. Then I asked for a copy of the spell for my alt enchanter. He kindly gave it to me.

Shortly after I left the guild.

That is how i amassed 2k pp and a spell at the low price of my reputation.

Ended up feeling bad and paying for one of the spells in the end

Right about the time Kunark was coming out, some poor schmuck on Luclin was selling small bronze armor. My ~level 15 bard had saved enough to buy a few visible pieces, I think it was Bp+Legs+Helm at least. We do the trade (maybe 100p for everything) and then I notice that the small bronze bp isn't bronze, but actually a mithril bp... not sure if he even knew what he had, but I definitely waited until he logged to equip it. Sorry random dwarf from Luclin circa 2000.
