    Too many to mention. The one that sticks in my mind was the first time I entered Cyrodiil and grouped up. We were on our way to some keep, on my mount using RM and minutes later I swerved off a bridge and into the water. My first death in Cyrodiil was to a slaughter fish. I'm assuming it didn't actually instil much confidence in my ability to those who witnessed it.

    Great thread. I think mine was one of the first times in Darkshade Caverns Vet dungeon. For this pull I Immediately went "all inn". Actually captured it on video at the 2 minute mark below. Lol, good times...

    not really the dumbest thing ive done but its the funniest

    so me and my buddy were in pvp full riding our horses trying to get to the keep to attack it and there was a a cliff in front of us, now i know we will jump from the cliff and land down so just before he jumped i used Rapid maneuver which made us jump much much more higher then it should we both landed and he died and i just LMAS.

    I did the same. I also used all my Nirnroot. Not that important on the surface, but then realised i needed the damn stuff for all the writs. That's all I seemed to get after i used it. 3x Nirnroot. Could never find enough of the damn stuff after that. This time, I levelled using all the useless stuff.

    Some friends and I are going to create new characters on the NA server within the next couple of days... No cps, no gold, no materials, no nothing. Its going to be very challenging, and maybe a little bit stupid :lol: I am hoping it will be lots of fun though, and am looking forward to seeing how the game looks and feels as a 'new' player :smiley:

    Trying to complete Vet Elden Hollow at v16 with @Jaronking took 4 hours. It took 10 minutes without him. Agreeing to help with that dungeon is still the biggest mistake I've made in this game. Right @texassob and @RonBurgundy

    The one thing that stands out as really dumb, besides what I put in the first thread, is how I ended up with an ugly guar mount. I didn't even know I had it, I don't remember buying it. I vaguely remember wanting the little guar like pet. So apparently I was drinking one night and bought the wrong dam one and then forgot. I should probably feel grateful that I didn't end up with god knows what being delivered from ebay or some other online shopping place.

    Sold every single mat to vendors until I realized wtf Crafting was all about. Worst six month stretch of MMO gaming I've ever done probably.

    Probably sold too many good mats.

    I'm sure everybody has done this once:

    Forgot to change to the Special Crafting Gear tab (Night's Mother at the time) before crafting 10 pieces of vet 16 gear. Yeah. I cried a little.

    Yup I did this when my friend asked me to make some light armour for him. He gave me all the ancestor silk I needed only for me to mess it up hah. Had to spend all my telvars to get it back. Was completely wounded.

    I just did this. .. I spent all my measly tel var stones on armor boxes to get VO stuff.. I thougt I was being frugal and would get blue boxes and improve the stuff I wanted to keep. But blues are cp 150..... I did not notice this. I cried a little as I am not the best in the sewers and IC .
    It will take me forever to get that many stones again. :'(

    When the revamped Silks of the Sun set was introduced a couple patches ago I wanted it badly. I thought "I should wait for the prices to drop, everything is overpriced for the first couple weeks".
    Didn't listen to myself and bought purple jewelry for 400k. A week later the prices halved. Now it drops in Stonefalls.

    Not sure if you're being serious or ripping on him, but that's always been the case.

    Dumbest thing I can still remember doing is accidentally pressing the wrong button in PvP and popping my ultimate while in a stealthed group positioning to an ambush on an enemy zerg. Suffice to say we got wiped and no-one was very happy.
