Some of my favourite confessions so far:
I decline trades from very high level characters, because I am terrified of dealing with actual humans in a game.
I like to follow groups into public dungeons and raid the crates and barrels while others do the fighting.
I used to steal nodes while someone else was fighting. Now I will lurk in areas with mobs and protect anyone who tries to harvest the nodes.
I dont play healers because i dont think they should exist. Everyone should have their own self heals and be responsible for their health management. Due to this i also treat healers like crap in dungeons and trials
Every single one of my ability keys is a macro.
Durring my lower lv grinds well before the crafting bag I would drop/sell to NPCs really expensive mats. Didn't know Kuta was worth anything.
I stand in Vulkhel Guard looking for duels because I'm insecure about my ability as a human being.
Dying in under 1 sec in 1v1 in PvP makes me violently salty.
I make lowbie gear for new players. Usually I just give them armor with no set
I've played since beta and my highest character level is 25.
I'm secretly attracted to Queen Ayrenn
I don't understand when im supposed to upgrade gear so I mostly stick to gear that has Training on it
I assassinate NPCs who are alone for no other reason than to steal stuff. To reduce the guilt, I tell myself... they're just zeroes and one man. They'll respawn. I'm afraid to really dig deep down and reflect on my actions.
My main character is Breton stamblade
I have trouble creating characters that aren't Dunmer.
It tends to be that whenever I'm talking to a female npc, I end up looking at their face first, and then their chest and their crotch. I'm a sinner.
If I'm in Cyrodill on my magblade, I'll go look for an enemy player follow them for a little while and if I'm feeling particularly troll-ish, I'll toss a Reaper's Mark on them just to let them know I'm watching.
I spend less time playing the game and more time treating ESO as a social hub, although it feels like I get into arguments more often than not.
I was CP100+ before I realized that L2+X would dodge roll. I would see people do it and just thought that must be in skill line my character doesn't have.
I spend a lot of time looking at my character just because I think she is prettier than other people's characters.
812 hours. Highest character is CP166. Help

It shouldn't be titled 'confessions of a casual mind' but 'confessions of an idiot'. As many don't have anything to do with the ever misunderstood, 'casual/hardcore' divide.

johu31✭✭✭✭On console when group finder queues five people, I Initiate the vote to kick on the lowest champ point.
I sometimes take one or two items from a guild bank and re-sell them in a far away trader.
I too am secretly attracted to the queen.
I once told my friend that imperial mag sorc was the way to go.. he quit at vet 14 when he found out it sucked. (Pre race change and viable stam sorc)
Secretly jelly of those with titles and skins I'll never get. Mainly because of fat fingers.
These are my crimes...5 -

✭✭✭✭✭great thread @Thelon ...nice counter balance to all the "i'm a golden god" threads (who isn't these days)...
without doubt I'm guilty of a few transgressions myself:
"sometimes i'll just camp at an outpost or keep because the thought of getting on my mount and riding to go fight somewhere else depresses me"
"if i see some allies need help in cyrodiil or IC, I'll pause, do a quick head count of friends and foes - then decide whether or not to get involved"
"if I see a single player engaged in a fight against npcs in IC - depending on my mood - you may or may not get a jesus beam in the back"Edited by geonsocal on January 24, 2017 11:27PMPVP Campaigns Section: Playstation NA and EU (Gray Host) - This Must be the Place2 -

The two of us are not going to wipe that ball group so I'll hang back, but you go for it and I will rez you after you die
If you start whining about how bad our own faction is then

ArchMikem✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭✭I leveled my first character to Vet 1 as a Sword and Shield, Heavy/Light Armor, Magicka Sorcerer. I played the game believing it wouldn't punish you for playing the way you wanted.
Whenever I quest through Reaper's March, or anywhere that has Khajiit NPCs, I start talking to myself with a bad Khajiiti accent saying things like "Dark Moons!", and "This one is taking the Hobbits to Dune!".
I go into Anvil Castle with my Nightblade and Pickpocket/Murder/Loot everyone I can find before selling it all to a Fence, and I keep a clear conscience by telling myself they're all just Pirates so they deserve it.
I used to believe the color of an item's name was the only true indicator of value, and tried to get someone to buy my Malachite Shards for a high price once.
I'm one of the first people to hate on Teabaggers. In Cyrodiil if someone attempts to Gank me but fails either because I somehow survived or I had friendlies nearby that put them down for me, I will immediately proceed to Teabag the Ganker.
After purchasing the Cyrod Town Gown I put it on my rather busty Khajiit, unequipped all weapons, and spent the next ten or twenty minutes walking through player Hubs acting like an NPC, to see if I got any double takes from other players.
Sometimes I wish PvP had friendly fire enabled because I get angry at how inept the other Pact players can be in Cyrodiil.CP2,100 Master Explorer - AvA One Star General - Console Peasant - Khajiiti Aficionado - The Clan
