Ok my personal funny story that happened in game was.
2 weeks after the boats were implemented. I hopped on the boat from freeport. I arrived in Ocean of tears. I got off the boat to wait for another boat or to do some selling at the INN there can't remember. Anyway upon returning to the dock I casted invis. Otherwise that stupid female woodelf would've jacked me around. I was like 18 at the time. When I arrived (still invis) I caught a conversation going on. The people talking included a Erudite and two humans all male. They were gracefully sitting at the dock. When in /say the erudite then says " But, why do I have to be black you guys". One of the human characters then replied back , " Because man its the best race for your class". The second human than replies " Dude its okay everyone plays a black character at some point". The Erudite obviously still frustrated with his race than says, " But you guys are white and i'm black can't we switch!". At this point the boat arrives. Just before they get on the boat I uninvis my character. I than hail the Erudite to get his attention. He turns to me and says Yes? I than ask him " So (soandso) why are you black?".
I found this story halarious and I was cracking up. Clearly these were noobies comming back into EQ showing a friend how to play. They suckered him into a black character which he didn't feel was his own.
