Stupidest things you've done after no longer being a newbie

What are the stupidest thing you have done in EQ after you were no longer a newbie.

Here is an example of one of the many stupid things I have done since my newbie days:

Recently I was running to seb to go play with the frogs. I was taking the book and so I went from the field of bones to EJ, and having done this all the time I ran right off the edge of the EJ cliff to my death.

Swearing it was a fluke I ran right off the cliff to get my first corpse, and at that time I made a second corpse right next to it.

After that I decided to hop down slowly.

Dups has many stories, although, he never stopped being a newb.

Evacced a group out of a raid.

I think every druid/wizard has made that mistake at one time or another though...

I still sometimes snare myself when playing a druid thinking its SoW or SoE and not fully paying attention to the spell icon =(

I played a dwarf for the majority of my time on EQ and the single thing that I always found embarrassing was trying to get ON the boat at Freeport. I'd almost always end up in the water on the first try. Very enfuriating.

Highsunning charmed players when fighting GABs and accidentally gating the bird.
Singing DA on rage when in MT group.
Singing shadowstep song when fighting Quav.

Oh wait.. those were all on purpose.

I usually mem Gate in the same spell slot as Ferine Avatar. A few times during a fight I've been asked for FA and gated myself out of the battle.

The key is to get back w/out anyone noticing. If you experience a canni death there's always someone that notices the suicide message.

Continually cast Kazad's Mark instead of Word of REstoration. SImilar icons.

I kept that one to myself. Everyone lived so all is well.

I trusted a ranger to lead me through the ToFS like 2 weeks into Velious. She ended up leading us to EVERY fucking pit trap in the place. It was uncanny.
