My friends and I would joke with each other as all young adults do. One of the jokes was a catch phrase from a Deliverance "You got a purty mouth". Of course it was just among us. We would occasionally sent a tell to each other with comments such as this.

My friend would also sometimes play a female friend's account and I thought it would be funny when he was on to pretend I was saying this to her. Well .... it so happens he logged off and now she was logged in when I decided to share this information.

I was almost reported before I could explain the joke to her. She wasn't happy and I believe never talked to me again. Maybe that wasn't funny ... [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Really wanted a tusk and read he couldn't summon.

Went over to Western Wastes on my invisible AA horse ([You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]) and found him conning blue. He's somewhere 63-66 so I guess I got lucky. Proceeded to dot kite him with boiling blood and Festering Darkness (like 1600hp over time if standing still).

At one point snare broke and he charged me knock-back'ing me off the cliff in WW into the water. Resnared and continued to run with Bobbing Corpse on until I could find a place to get back up. By this time I had at least 2 of those damn blue wolves on me which were unsnared. I eventually feared them off until I could FD off the aggro.

Back on Tantor I used Boiling Blood and Darkness and ran him all over WW. It honestly took 2 cold sweaty hours of gameplay to wear him down. I got knocked in the water TWICE and was fending off those damn wolves the entire time.

The tusk didn't drop. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

So my brother and I made 2 wizards back in 1999 and we started in Gfay. It was our first MMO that we every played and we were sucked in instantly, I think it took us 1 month to get to lvl 10 in orc hill. Then we proceded to travel to Crushbone and spent a good month there until we felt it was time to travel. So we poked around the map a bit until we found this zone called Lesser Faydark...welll being that we were in Greater Fay and we had no problems we decided to travel through. So on that dreadful day we went into Lessery Fay as two level 16 wizards, we were now 2 month vets of eq and knew that when traveling into a new zone...you have to stick to the zone wall. Unfortunately for us, on this day in Lessery Fay there was a nasty little brownie who instantly attacked us and dispatched us in a mater of seconds. After we respawned my brother sitting next to me got up and said "im done" not playing anymore. I was confused because death and CR's had become a norm in our daily eq lives. So I asked him "why are you so upset" and he answered "the brownie stole a level from me, how am I going to get it back" ......thats the day we found out ...you actually lose exp when you die =P

back on Tallon Zek when I started back in 2000, I was struggling as a new player. I didn't really have any friends to play with or any equipment to get started (Barbarian Warrior). Eventually I caught a lucky break - some a$$hole ran an ice giant train on me and killed me. That doesn't sound very lucky, but the guy that did it felt really bad, and he went into permafrost and got me some large bronze pieces.

he told me about a place called Gfay - where the newb wood elfs start out, and mentioned it was the auction zone and constantly had hundreds of people in it bartering at all times. I wasn't happy with the bronze armor alone, the game was still really tough to solo in. I made my way to gfay to do some buying and selling.

I sold all of my bronze armor - 2pp per AC. while I did that, I kept an eye on low end items from people in a hurry to make a sale, or just in general what the items were going for. I bought and resold a couple of items I was comfortable taking the gamble on. the big money maker was the stein of moggok, easy to sell and people were churning out the quest to sell them. eventually I did enough buying/reselling to acquire a full set of crafted armor and a blade of xalgoz.

anyways, after I had geared up some and leveled up some in the area, I happened to be by a GM that was resolving an issue for a player near the kelethin bank. he went linkdead - I hadn't ever seen a GM go linkdead before.. being a PvP server, for shits and giggles, I decided to see if it would allow me to attack him.. sure enough, it let me attack him, and he wasn't hitting me back for any damage.

I pk'ed a GM in the middle of all the usual traders and people hanging out in Gfay .. started telling everyone about the armor and weapons he was wearing and what kind of stats/effects they had on em .. it was utterly hilarious. I don't think I ever saw someone else PK a GM on EQ live. I became extremely paranoid that I'd be banned and went into hiding.. he confronted me when he logged back in. all was good, though, he thought it was kind of funny himself, and he wasn't very upset about the #zone corpse run.

My guild leader who was furious that he lost one of his mainhealers(the girl) and his main tank(the husband) because of some scrubby SK (my friend) found out my friends address and gave it to the angry husband.

The husband flew over to philly and tried to kill my friend on his front lawn. The cops where called and the husband was forced to flee back to Colorado.

My friend who did not make much money (worked nights as security on campus) was foced to slowly sell off his belongings to support her and she quickly grew fedup with his current situation and after 3 months she left him to get back with her husband.

This left him pennyless guildless and womanless but his epic EQ fail will be an amusing story to tell people for years to come.

And the moral of the story is Nothing good comes out of Colorado.

You will get my vote if you can quote the local news story on this. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

There once was a man on the Sullon Zek server named Sam Deathwalker...

My true eq story [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

ok, so like im in the commons east last night and im having
some ice craem and getting my determination up to go crazyman
and finish level 5.
so i see this skeleton and he runs over to me and hits me and
then laughs at me. so like theres no way im gonna put up with
that, so im attack him.

well im standing there fighting, and this monk named siegert
walks up to me and hes like 'what are you doing?'

and im like 'wtf dude im killing this dumb skele dont KS me'

i don't even know what KS means, but everyone tells me to stop
doing it alot so i think it has something to do with
roleplaying

so he's like 'why aren't you attacking it?'

WTF?!?

so im like 'dude, i am attacking it, look at this sweet ninja
kicking action, are you blind'

so im clicking kick as fast as i can so this stupid monk will
see that i can fite good and leeve me alone.

so then he's like 'skaterr, press the A key'

so i say 'A'

and hes like 'no, don't say it, just press it'

so I tell siegert 'A'

and hes like 'your kinda retarded arent you? just press the A
key'

so im like 'ok dude but this is the last favor i ever do for
you'

so i press A

well all of the sudden i start swinging with my fists and
punch the skele and it dies reely fast!

and im like 'OMG DUDE YOU ARE SO RULE!!'

and hes like 'how is it possible that you've gotten to level 5
without knowing about auto attack?'

and im like 'whats autoattack???'

and hes like 'its what you were just doing when you pressed A'

and im like 'ohh is it an exploit, cause i wont tell on you if
you dont tell on me'

and he stops for a second and hes looking at me and hes
like 'your amazing'

and im like 'ya i know im almost level 6'

and hes like 'lucky for you i came along'

and im like 'ya dude you are the rulest'

so he leaves and im all excited, so i give j-mo a call on the
phone.

and he like 'hello'

and im like 'dude i just got sooooo lucky!'

and hes like 'sweet bro!! with who?'

and im like 'this guy named siegert'

and hes like 'WTF?!?!'

and im like 'ya this monk guys showed me how to exploit the
game with autoattack'

and j-mo's like 'oooooooh, i thought... nevermind'

and im like 'ya dude it rules i can kill pretty much anything
in the game now'

and hes like 'umm, wait a sec dude, you're telling me you
didn't ever know about auto attack?? how the hell did you ever
get to level 5?'

and im like 'DUDE WTF WHY DO PPL KEEP ASKING ME THAT, IM A
MONK!!!'

and hes like 'ya how could i forget, the sweet ninja kicking
action right?'

and im like 'thats right'

so i hang up and then i start wondering why the hell my
brother never told me about the autoattack exploit.

so i go running over to his room, and im banging on the door
and im like 'MIKE!'

and he opens the door a crak and sticks his head out and hes
whispers 'SSsssshhh! dude shut-up! i cant talk right now im
getting lucky!'

so then i realized that that he must be learning about
autoattack right now too, so theres no way he could have told
me about it.

i celebrated with some ice cream.
