Read a thread like this in another forum, and it was just too funny. Not sure if one has been done on here.
Here is a list of Noob things I have done when I got started:
1. I was greatly disappointed when the my red mage couldn't use the scythe i bought.
2. Traded unlimited silk threads to the npc for 600 gil for three.
3. Freaked out the first time a Canyon rarab linked.
4.
/l i need help to find the Outpost in Kolshushu region outpost.
/player k, it's east of the canyon
/l where's the canyon
/player north of east saru
/l >< i'm lost
/player where are you
/l think it's called Buburimu, right next to some building.
/player .. thats the outpost
5. I sold my crystals to the vendors. Including light crystals
anybody got any they want to say?

Um...
1. Not knowing how to work the AH and thinking the last 10 sold window was, thinking it was the last 10 bids and after a certain time highest bid gets that item!
2. Not knowing where Valkurm Dunes was.
3. Not knowing how to form parties
4. Being a BLM, sure every BLM will agree, Nuke the shizzle outta something til u was dry of MP!
5. Being a BLM, using manafont when ever i ran out of MP (Obviously when timer was up)
Lv61 and got lost in San d'Oria for the first time.

Oh God I'm gonna get laughed at so hard on this one...
I logged in the other nite and had all my gear in my moghouse for ballista, the linkies all go C'mon Kai you can do it, let's go...4 minutes, you can do it!! I kept saying omg I'm never gonna get changed in time, and I run into my moghouse, get all my stuff, run to the pursiuvant and then get warped to Meriphataud Mountains, talk to the herald, got on the team my friend was on and was all kinds of excited.
Match starts, all of a sudden all I got on are my hairpin, shoes, and gloves....OH ****!! I grabbed my level 40 Gear >.> (IT was a level 30 cap) Anyhow, I ended up playing the whole best 2 outo f 3 as a naked Mithra redmage...
Needless to say the boyz had fun that nite, but I think the japanese players were pretty pissed off, it's kinda hard to autotranslate, hello I'm a dumbass and grabbed the wrong gear...

A friend and I killed Hawkeyed Dnatbat (sp?) in Davoi and got our archer's knife in inventory. Decided we would look around and found a cave. "Hey let's go see what's in there real quick." Yeah so we both zoned in at the same time.
/goodbye Archer's Knife
We now lot immediately on anything valuable. LoL

Leb... ROTFL! You must be going through withdrawl already, eh?? Or did you just miss talking to me that bad?? HAHAHAAH!! Just like a zillion more hours til maintenance is over! LOL !! Hugs!
Well... my n00blicious things...
1) I used to toss all my Beastman's Seals (dear God, if I could just get them all back now...) as well as crystals and all drops. Also I didn't know about Signet either!! >.<'
2) Took me a while to figure out how to sort my inventory. Who knew stuff could stack?? >.<;; (kinda relates back to #1....)
3) Took me forever to party... becuase I didn't want to. I solo'd til I was like almost 15 or so as RDM! >.< uggghhh....
4) I had no LS nor knew what one was until I was in my 20's...
There are many others, but I refuse to mention them now. LOL!! Those are my best though! That is why I am so helpful and open to new players! This game has lots of nuances that a new player needs to know. Thank God I now only have n00by moments when I start new jobs... LOL!! Sorta.. lol... please still <Invite to join party.> <me> ROTFL... >.< OMGZZZZZZ!!! LOL!

Lord there are way too many XD Since I've had so many main characters...
1) Bought something for way more than the price. i.e.: silk thread for 290k instead of 29k. @@; Thankfully the person found me and refunded my money <3 *^^*
2) Buying something (Frost Shield) instead of selling it. Now I have to sell two. -.-;
3) Using Benediction in an all JP party when it wasn't needed... I felt so stupid. But! I made a cute little show afterwards to make up for it^^; They didn't mind. We had a good party and if anything they found it an entertainment. >.>; Thank goodness... ( this happend two nights ago >.>; )
4) Other noober things I can't remember. It's been way too long for me. X.x I'm sure people can come up with some things Kayleigh/Akoa has done :X
5) Yeah... I was told at the beginning that Beastman seals were useless. -.-; Who knows how many I dropped. :o

haha thank god i never did the crystals on. Thank god when i started after NA release i was in a "clan" ls who played the beta but my noob moments are..........
1. dropped atleast 200 beastmen seals.
2. was lvling my blm to 10 died at 3 and ended up in rabao cause i forgot to set hp.
3. thought I could beat guiver ( that one was the noobest)

I started off as monk for a lvl, then switched to war. In doing so I continued to pound away H2H on everything I fought for a few levels. I eventually bought a sword....
I ran in circles around the mobs thinking they would miss me.
Once I realized that was getting me no where I decided it was time to utilize the empty ranged weapon slot. Not understanding the AH I went to the weapon shops and bought everything there. (I sold everything there, including crsytals, but was "rich" {20k} from selling those stupid lettered eggs).
Well since I couldn't sell the Beastmen seals, and couldn't trade them to go to their seceret lair (Seemed logical from the description) I too dropped them.
In fact if I couldn't stack it, I probably dropped it.
Thought the Goblin Thug would help me with the Orc that was Whomping away at me. I've hated Goblin Thugs ever since then....
I couldn't believe I was expected to get 2000 exp to reach the next level when I was only getting about 50 a kill. The thought of fighting anything higher than Decent challenge was of instant death.
I'm sure there's more but that's all I can think of.

Recently I Casted Horde in a very crowded area of nonlinking non aggroing mobs (they werent to pleased) Party sees me typing <|RunAway|> <|RunAway|> lol.
I remember to not knowing how to sort and selling everything at the Stores lol.
I didnt Hold onto a beastmen seal until I had a lvl 30 WAR and 14MNK >< Now Im bard think of how many more I could do ; ;.
Running out into Gusta and didnt know how to attack lmao, then getting lost on the hill and not knowing how to open the menu to get the map.
I didnt know how to log out so for 2weeks I just temped logged or shut the PS2 off.
Thats all I can recall for now.

one time in the nest in the ball room i hit a aga spell by mistake. i got raped my pt gatherd around me and started to laugh raised me and went on fighting. beast seals i drop. when i was in my 20s i was fighting **** with my friends i forgot where and a elem spawn right next to us right when i started to cast we almost died lol. they gave me hell about it.
Umm...numerous times I would be told by players near me that I was /anon while LFG. Pretty embarassing. It's cool though, cuz I just told them, "I know. I was just testing you, to make sure you knew what was up." Their replies were sorted, but usually humorous.
I also have dumped an ***-load of Beastmen Seals. However, I plan to make many more noob mistakes in the future. Why? Because they amuse me so.

First day in vana diel i had the thought in my head-
When you get a pt, ur with them forever!
so i started shouting if anybody wanted to party with a lvl 1 warrior.
Eventually a lvl 5 mnk said sure, and we started fighting quadavs (me still at 1) and i learned about death...
so i started fighting bees instead (still in the pt with the mnk) until he had to go and explained about disbanding.
NEVER held onto seals ><
Sold crystals to the vendors.
i remember walking into the area where the LL pops as my war at about lvl 4, and thinking OMG thats such a high lvl place after the LL nearly destroyed me and i had to call for help -.-;
(recently) went into the dunes as a lvl 13 BST and tried to charm a lizard in there.
Then, it got un-charmed 30 seconds later but during a battle with another lizard.
then tried to run but 3 more lizards linked on the way.
i think, No big deal really, i saw this comming. Went to hp.
And then had to walk back from Bastok because i accidently set my hp there when i changed jobs (it was in N gusta, but i changed back to drg, and BST again)

I was lvl 15 WHM and I heard about this NM called Leaping Lizzy. I had remembered walking by her once going "that's a weird name..." and just kept going. So anyways, here I am looking for this lizard and ran into someone else who was lvl 15, but THF. So, I asked her if she wanted to team up and try to get it together. OK, so we ended up getting her and killing her and getting the leaping boots. OMG, we were excited. We walked all the way back to Bastok and zone in. "Do you have the boots?" "No, you must have them" "I don't have them" Neither of us lotted and we lost them in the zone. This was over a year and a half ago when zoning didn't give it to the last to leave the zone, it meant you lost it.

Hey, my inaugral post :D Noob things I have done:
Sold Crystals: check
Dropped Seals: check
2 hred unnecessarily: check
My coup de dumbass was in Quicksand Caves when I Poison 2ed a lizzy instead of a ant in a pt with 4 JPs. Whole party dead (link) but they couldnt drop me because there weren't any other RDMs or BRDs lfp. Now that's a bad feeling.

Aliiyah!!! of course I miss ya silly. But this is what I do at work, while soooommmee people get to play.
After reading some of yall's post, i realized more things that I did.
* Dropped tons of beastmen seals (now one of my main sorce of gil)
*I aswell used to run around the mob hopeing it will miss... that was funny to see a level 10 rdm run around a mob over and over and over again.
* when Takui was helping me with some quest, I attacked an elemental on the boat thinking I could take it cause it was easy prey. boy was I wrong. He even Jumped in, and we barely made it away with our lives due to the ship docking.
* again, when Takui was helping me with another quest, I voked a scorpion who was twice my level, cause i was a warrior (takui was twice my level too and could of solo'd it, but wasted his mp trying to keep me alive, lmao)

My Saddest, most n00bish moment was when I threw my Fortune Egg when I forgot to change my macros from War to Whm.. /cry
I still miss it...and am now very paranoid that I am somehow going to lose my Happy Egg
The other most n00bish thing I've done is attack a Sea Monk on the boat with my fellow lvl 20 buddy...a War and a Thf...
Yeah we made fun of each other as we waited for some nice person to come heal us (somebody ran to Windy from Mhaura to change jobs! How nice!)

ROTFL... had to bump this and add to it...
Another n00blicious moment was when I (sotra like the above poster) threw my $40k Morion Talathum(sp?). I almost vomited IRL... I have since bought another one (I tried to fight the NM, but never seem to be a) the right lv when I see him or b) he's got Turbogirl all over him... -.- )
Well, if it makes you feel any better Leb, I am at work now and sans my laptop for playing. /cry I didn't get the update done in time on it for work!! Plus I am really getting into the good stuff in the latest Harry Potter book... LOL!!
>.<;

I threw my Morion Tathlum just last week. Dammit. Now I gotta rebuy...
/cry

Yeah I'd much rather throw my silly little fortune egg than a Morion Tathlum - but still - too bad it happened! I know a lot of people who've done the same.
I don't know if this is n00bish...but it's probably not very smart! After reading that many people were reading the new Harry Potter book during the update I went out and bought it yesterday and read about half of it while updating - then I stopped playing because it was really interesting and finished it...so I came in to work about 3 hours early - figured SLEEP...who needs it?

Oh what the hell...
a) Mujuru: Hey Takui... how does this AH thing work?
Takui: Just put everything up for 100g and there will be money in your MH.
Mujuru: cool...I'll put it up for 10g...100g seems like a lot!
b) Solution: Carry 6 warp cludgels for my warping pleasure... Problem: i'm a lvl 15 BRD in valkurm!! DOH! (I hate to walk!)
c) XPing BLM and WHM to 10 with a Wand! ><
d) Takui: Yo Muj, your turn to sell Erase.. everyone pass.
PT members: passed..passed..passed..etc..
Mujuru: Cool.. i'll go put it on AH. /ma Warp <me>
>< Erase lost... /sigh
e) I swear I think i can solo BCNM40!!!! ><
Shall i go on?.. lmao

Hmmm hope theres not a limit to how long these posts can be...
Noob things I've done:
1. We'll leave out most of the under lvl 30 stuff cause at that time everyones an idiot.
2. W00t for the 21WAR/7WHM my first time through qufim
3. Casted sneak in the middle of gollem alley in sky looking for te coffer
4. Watched my friend in KoN kill KB when i was in the early 50s...too bad meteor has a big range
5. Claimed another LS's summoned god at kirin...i don't know why...death followed quickly
6. Mistook ninja for paladin when i tried to cast huton: ni on the slept link to build hate
7. Quote "Hey whats that?" "is it a NM?" "idk let me go look" (Aquarius hits Vindicate for 120 damage) <Run Away!>
8. Traded leaping boots for I.M. boots cause they looked cooler
9. And my most noob moment ever, its probably the only time you'll see a 74 pld dead in qufim from a pugil...don't ever go afk while fighting. (My ls called me "Pug" for a while after that)

That's why I haven't even bothered to post to this one. Don't even get me started...lol!
Like searching for the entrance to this "Olton Movapolos place." Found the entrance *got off my chocobo* and excitedly ran in to check out this new (to me) zone. It turns out I wasn't even close. In my defense, I had no idea Port Bastok had an outside entrance.
Ahhh, the good ol' days! Wait, that happened yesterday :P

When i was a 33 THF i was in Yhoator and i went to pull. I get aggroed by a Goblin Smithy and figure hey no big deal, I will just Flee and zone. No harm done. Boy howdy was i wrong. I am ashamed to say that i was the cause of over 15 deaths.... I was not the most liked person ever. Sorry for anyone that was there.
.... It was kinda funny tho
