Biggest waste of time on EQ

[Maurk]

well what the hell, why not..

So what was the biggest waste of time, without any gain you have experienced in EQ?

recently on p1999, at level 15, I spent 7 hours trying to loot amstaff scroll (ghoulbane quest) from crazed goblins in Highkeep (asking every group if i could loot.) They apparently don't exist yet, when I figured this out, I decided to walk back to freeport, got lost in highpass, and died twice from friggon gnolls.

never got a port from Freeport to North Karanas, so I walked all the way back both times.. i gained absolutely nothing except laughter from my bro :[
