Did the same as sibelang with a Destroyer axe. Was putting a +5en inscription on it and thought "wiki says Destroyer weapons can't be salvaged ...hmm, I'll have that 15^50 off of it, then"

Wrong. Byebye axe. Thank god I displayed it in my HoM first ><

Edited the wiki page straight away to indicate the dangerous wording - wish I'd read this old thread first :/

Losing 4 stacks of victory tokens to the emperor while afk during the dragon festival. If you had victory tokens in your inventory it automatically took 250 and gave you a mask.

My first character was an elementalist. I put on [armor of earth] and was wondering why I was walking so slow.

Taking an MM olias to vanquish Ice Cliff Chasms, and saving Elsnil Frigidheart and his all-Elemental roadshow for last (when I had no minions left). And no DP-removal.

I hit 60% DP 5 times... (killing one or two elementals was enough to get me to 59% and buy me another spawn)

Wasn't a mistake or an "Oops" moment like the intent of the thread probably is, but it was hardcore self-ownage. Celebrating getting my Survivor title. This screenshot was totally worth the 1k.

Well, I took off my armor so I didn't think the -armor would have any effect.

If you suggest that reality is otherwise, I'd be more than happy to go back and try for a higher number ^_^.

Helping a guildy out of pre with my lvl 18 perma pre and not telling him to wait for me to leave the party before he takes the quest to go post.

Visting pre-ascalon still leaves a sour taste in my mouth.
