We need to lighten up a bit, so here's a potentially fun thread. Post the stupidest things you yourself have done as a newbie to EfU or EfU:A. I'll get it started.
One of my very first characters here went around emoting that he'd painted up his shield to look like a beholder's eye. I just thought I was sporting some really awesome Underdark-themed war paint. I didn't understand why everyone was being such a jerk to me until I got busted for being a thrall, and someone finally explained to me that making yourself up to look like a beholder isn't stylish in Sanctuary.
Accidently tried using my FR knowledge that's not of the right time/known as a arguement, which was discarded, fortunetly, as a misunderstanding OOCly.
Got involved with DangerousDan.
Oh, I remembered another one. I had a Lathanderite cleric who kept getting his DM loot taken by others. After this happened about three times, Howland gets frustrated and made a special @area just for me to stumble upon and loot.
Thinking that I'm supposed to always "include others," I run back to Sanctuary, gather up about 10 PCs and go raid the hole. Needless to say, I got none of the nice loot inside, pretty much all of which was obviously only useful to a Lathanderite cleric. I think Howland finally just walked an NPC up to me and gave me some loot, or one of the other looters felt sorry for me and gave me the armor, I can't remember which. But whatever the case, if someone hadn't put that plate mail in my hands directly, I would have never even seen it.
FRICKEN GLITCHEN
Got into an argument during quiet hours with an NPC mercenary without scripted conversation, threatening to kill him. Attacked him without notifying the DM's or even understanding that should be done, and then fled through the entirety of lower with a vengeful gang member on my tail.
Press the recommend button. Repeatedly.
Got involved with Halfbrood.
blitzed the puzzle trap on the way :P :P
I cast combust on a shelgarn's persistent blade I summoned.
Was playing a L8 dwarf cleric with high wisdom - who followed an illithid through a portal to the throne room in Ysinode.
Decided to test out the underwater areas of lower in my new platemail...then also decided that "those two sharks look like wimps" bye bye Ilmatari cleric with time on his hands.
I decided I'd wrestle cave bears without bothering to heal between fights and I was rewarded with a 45 damage crit through invisibility.
So like I made a sending after I was being hunted by a uber powerful undead with a scythe and so was looking for blur. I quickly went to get my lasgana and came back to find I was beat down by a Bone golem and then I managed to get up and move back a bit and some NPC sharb was pwning it so I was like w/e I don't need to buff and heal so all I did was down a blur potion and attacked it and got beat down with 10+ haste potions and 30 cure crit potions and died.
fucking veterans >_> <_<
Stumbling into the Lower sewers, encounter Zau in the middle of fighting some Spellguard associates, and then being chased around the sewers by him until I finally managed to find my way back to the lift back up. And then writing a letter of complaint to the Spellguard about the whole affair. <_<
Well. How would I say it.
Charging into vampires tomb, ignoring superiors orders as a watchman.
Not once, but around.. half dozen times. Fools luck, that's what they call it, I think.
Thought good gear was better than consumables. Lost first mildly-powerful character because of that, in a duel to death. unprepared of course.
Some other really stupid things that caused a few bans that are not worth mentioning...
I started playing EFU.
Went invis, and tried to sneak past a lizardfolk assassin. Didn't realize, however, how the Invisibility rules on the server worked, and threw a total tard-tantrum when I got ganked. Really silly.
I didn't reset my spawn point to Pissing Crone or Chudax's camp after starting in the UD as a kobold. Was pretty surprised and, shortly, pretty dead when I logged back in after a reset.

_________________________________________
I once stole some drow's things as HECTOR STEELBLADE, then ended up getting threatened by some halfing scum so I made a sad face and gave it all back. Later on that day, I logged off out of embarrassment after being killed by UMBER HULKS.
I logged in my first character, an elven archer, couldn't afford a bow directly and figured I'd not waste my precious gold on anything else before I can afford it. I find another pc who has something as amazing as a cloak and matching outfit, which means he must be rich, awesome and all that. He asked me to join him on Hobgoblin Brewery, and suffice to say, we both died to the first spawn there. The character lasted a total of 45 minutes.
Since then, I've proceeded to make non-combat, sly, plotting halfling rogues with 8 wis, 19 dex and weapon finesse, a chaotic neutral hoarran for the harbingers, using a katana and taking finesse as well as not being able to use faction uniform due to prereqs.
I'm torn between voting Ferius "Recommended Button" Worn or FRICKEN GLITCHEN for stupidest thing so far mentioned in this thread, though.
Called a crime committed by a Duergar a "grey issue".
I prefer Ferius "Escaped Statue" Worn, fyi.
I metagamed.
joined halfbrood's faction like 3 times
I got really drunk and emoted violating a pig, while using a British accent.
I took someone's purp crystal and got threatened to be unmercifully cybered, be it willfully, or by force.
I talk...
I think I have rectal cranial inversion or something, shit just spews out my mouth even when I know I should shut it.
Wasn't it TRB or someone who got the hot-tub from Worn's office removed? That has to be like single one stupidest thing ever done. Not like he was new at the time or anything.
Stupid character concept for the first character. Trying to brew potions in town with my second character in Sanctuary. On to my third character...the worst is yet to come.
halfbrood and i once on the same side he was a dancing mage
oh and I have another I sold some healing potions to a spellguard agent as a druid
Sold a large number of potions at 20gp each.
Did i mention i was a druid that lived at the kingsmans too?
come to my dancing competition we will steal your gold then needlessly cut your ears off. its okay, though, tyr makes ears grow back so says the bible.
Told nuke to piss off.
black thermal underwear? what?
How nice that a newbie actually demonstrated stupidity for us right here in the forums. Too bad it's a spammer.
I haven't done any thing yet but thinking for something to do that should be stupid. :)

ROFLMAO
After months of working on this plot, Tarnis finally breaches the Dunwarren Armory and invites a friend of his hated enemies (the Spellguard) along who then steals all the animatron parts right out from underneath his nose in a bag of holding.
I wonder if these guys are actual Chinese men. Derflaro, what are your thoughts?
excuse me character education, are you a chinese man?
chinese men no, chinese children yes
Cool.
ur cool =)
Even the spambot has a point.
