Cantr II Discussion Forum

Since we've been busy laughing at poor n00bs and their ordeals, let's take a look back and reveal our own most embarrassing screw-ups, childish misconseptions and other things like that.

I thought that...

- a curing tub heals people

- I might be able to sell a bone ring to a well-equipped man (luckily never got into trying though)

- grapes are a good daily food

- I can't eat potatoes because clicking the button gives an error message

- that people might be mad at me if I log out without letting them know

- that projects advance in real time

- that you can work on several projects at the same time

- that getting clothes, equipment etc. is easy

- that you're immortal (well, I knew death would be final but I never though one could run into their bitter end in their twenties)

- that it's good form to have a background story for your characters since they're 20 already

- that nothing worth mentioning means some sort of basic clothing (nope, these days I imagine my newspawns naked)

- that all your suggestions are fresh ones (don't we all?)

- that there is justice

- that pottery would be added soon

(- that there is a chance to make art)

(- that there is singing)

(These are in parenthesis since they are kinda true, but in very small form.)

What I didn't know was that you can't drag a note while working on a project.

I called my first charrie Crosshair, and told them i was looking for my brother, then went into a building. the Building was TBr headquarters..... i didnt come out alive.

*rofl* Yeah, some of my characters had a family too. Jaina had plenty of little brothers and sisters too I think, while Hannah was running from an arranged marriage to an older man.

*yelps and runs away, his tail between his legs*

Shortly after, the Macgregors killed my first character.

I couldn't understand why I couldn't take small hand-held projects with me everywhere I went.

I couldn't understand why each person needed to attack the animals every day, until some of us were eaten.

notsure

I thought vehicles and building were public
I thought 8 hrs as in real earth time so I was fustrated when my projects took so long

I thought 5 years work for a bone shield was good pay.

I thought the barons were just "misunderstood"

I remember wondering why everything was green.

My friends didn't understand the concept of a MMORPG, so they thought I was talking to a computer.

I thought people would respond to me automatically. After all, why shouldn't they? It's not like they have lives or anything....

o but they do....

One of my chars got offended when someone wouldn't pass her something while on the road.

One of my characters ws challeneged to "Meet me in Naron, I'll take a boat and get there ahead of you...". Since I was new to the game, I thought this was going to be a fun but short-lived mission to just help me get the hang of exploring.

Little did I realize just what sort of time/distance was involved when my Brunoi-area-spawned character set out to find Naron...

I was convinced that I could become powerful enough to lead a town and an army within a few weeks of spawning......

I didn't understand dynamic naming, so I thought I broke a game law when I named my first character Vex instead of 'a man in his twenties.'

Wouldn't have been as bad if I didn't make an OOC comment out of it and paint a big red sign on my face that says 'NOOB'.

I spawned in the Hills of Hilloi. Think there were tomatoes there. I picked them but it kept telling me I was hungry.

There was another man there that would never speak and I slapped him about 25 times trying to get him to speak. I thought, "what an idiot!"
