What's the stupidest thing you ever done on your character?

Three boat rides from Freeport. That was a pretty horrible EQ day. You made it so much better, Ravager. Thanks again.

My pleasure. I put a bit of work in putting that set together and was happy to see it get a second life when I was done with it. Glad I made a frustrating day a little better too!

a complete set of visible Ravenscale armor

This is so classic, and what the original Nubben wore for such a long time, although I think one or two pieces were actually Blackened Iron from RunnyEye and not Ravenscale. I also rocked the Crested Helm and Serpent Bracers for the silver and black look. That was by far my favorite looking gear set up on any character I've ever played in EQ.

Decided I want to try Kedge on my enchanter once I get up to that level.

Spend a couple days looking for a Fishbone Earring, no luck.
Finally get the level I want to go to Kedge decide I will just use Enduring Breath for now.
Go buy Fish Scales
Go buy Enduring Breath spell.

Get to Kedge and remember Water Ele Illusion has water breathing...

Let Calabee use it~

Zoned out from Plane of Sky, tabbed out while that long fall was going on... quickly looked on the forums, tabbed back in.

Got 49 on my enchanter and decided to go check out soloing in The Hole. Did research on the wiki and discovered I need to get into Paineel to buy the key to get into The Hole.

I didn't have enough faction to get the key from the guards to get into Paineel, even after trying to illusion +faction boost spells, also looked into any quests I could do to get faction up with the guards. Eventually paid some lowbie 100pp and Clarity to open the city for me and wait around for when I needed back out.

Flash forward two levels later I am passing the guards to go down into The Hole and is dawns on me. Just charm the fucking guard to get the key to Paineel you asshole.

On Live back in the day I had never done a single quest other than EXP item turn ins. The very first quest years and years later that I attempted to do was the key to BoT. I didn't sleep much back in those days and I was in line to be the first on Torvo to enter BoT. Anyway we dropped Orien Wavecrusher...(memeory>?) in PoS for my last piece. I was so busy getting tells from friends and guilds, having my roommates crowd me excited to see BoT, and not researching like I should have done. I turned the quest items in in the wrong order. Had to start completly over again. Oh the shame of letting that many people down lol.

During Kunark era, I was racing to be the first enchanter to hit 60 on my server. I was bound outside sebilis, as was common. After a long session, at level 56, I gated out, and went out to run to the store.

While I was gone, someone had trained the orb room in trak teeth where I was bound. I came back to the computer realizing I had death looped and was now level 54.

I still was second chanter to level 60 on Quellious. But that was the last time I ever went afk at a potentially dangerous bind spot.

Never did this, but the stupidest thing anyone could have done was buy one of those infinite money making guides off the web in classic.

Here is one of them: http://scmelze02.tripod.com/sitebuil...tinumguide.pdf

Note how it says you will have infinite platinum by making 50-75 platinum per hour.

Yeah, ebay had a ton of different ones back in the day. I guess some of them might have worked but who has the time to do it. Only Quick money at lower levels I have ever found is to have a Port Whore Porting. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
