Some of these posts are always interesting to read, as it outlines the narcissism and borderline sociopathy that the seemingly majority of people have when it suits them or if they can get away with it. No true sense of honor whatsoever, ultimately only thinking of themselves. At least some of them feel regret, but that doesn't inherently mean they won't do it again.
Everyone has moments of greedy weakness!!

When EQ2 came out and EQ servers were doing their first merge, every player was offered a free transfer to an server of their choice. During this time I had become somewhat close with this odd fellow who seemed to never sleep and just grind up to 30 on numerous characters.

He asked me to transfer for him 10k plat from one of his characters to the other. I took his 10k, transferred servers, and never heard from him ever again. I still feel bad.

I don't exactly know why, but it's your simple story that made me cackle out loud like a witch brewing up something good.

I was racing to an open AC camp in Guk on my cleric. Along the way I saw scryer was up and I didn't see a group around so I aggroed it and started training it to AC to kill it there. Along the way I get a tell from a guy saying his group was camping the scryer. So I brought the scryer back to the camp and rooted it in front of them, apologized, and then ran back to AC.

A few minutes later a couple of them send me tells saying I wiped their group because a gaz knight had come with me when I rooted the scryer in front of them. I apologized again and offered to rez any who died but pretty much the whole group had logged so I only got to rez one of them.

I'll probably never stop feeling awful about it.

I remember being in a group that had waited what seemed like forever for the Frogluk Scryer to spawn. I mean forever! It felt like we had killed a thousand Shaman placeholders. The guys in the groups were getting in serious trouble with their wives. The minute the Scryer spawned some guy came running in, grabbed it and poof they were gone. We send him a nice tell saying, please sir, we were patiently waiting on that Scryer. Can we have him back?

Sure he said. But he also brought a Gaz Knight back with him. We tried to fight it but it hit so HARD. We tried to run away, but it ran after us so FAST. That Gaz Knight just destroyed our exhausted group.

I think we all logged. Half of us quit EQ.


But I decided to persevere on...


A couple days later, I was in Karana on my Elf Ranger when I get a tell from this guy asking me to help him kill a Named centaur. He was so excited, but I was only a lowbie ranger and I told him this.

He's too tough for me I said, still hurting from getting a Gaz Knight trained on me a few days earlier.

He kept saying truust me. Use your bow, bro. Well, he called me bro, so I had to help. Its a code thing you see.

But that centaur was so FAST. I couldn't get away from him and he hit so HARD! I tried everything, but I was so tired and I died.

I was so mad I quit EQ right then and there.. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]


(Just kidding here of course, but I loved the stories and the regrets. Couldn't help but have some fun with them).

One time I left my group in LGuk on my rogue right after a wipe (where I made it out alive) -- Rather then help with the CR, I ran off to the tunnel to buy my erudite illusion mask from someone I had made plans to meet with earlier in the day.

It's definitely my most shameful moment on EQ. I feel ashamed to even tell the story to be honest with you. :/
