I saved up enough to buy my monk 15k armor (finally!) and I was putting runes on her. after I put a rune of attunement on her feet I decided I didn't feel like having it there and wanted to put it on her gloves instead.
I guess I was just way too used to changing things around on heros' armor so
I expert salvaged
and it broke

Nothing too bad but first time through Urgoz's warren we had cleared the last room before Urgoz with all the pop-ups after 3+ hours worth fighting. Did a bit of inventory sorting and went to close the inventory. However inventory was in the top right corner and instead of clicking the inventory x button I hit the main one behind it, closing gw. At the time we didn't have reconnections so was a bit peeved!

Buying the wrong 15k boots for my necro in the Granite Citadel. >.>
Minor self ownage last night, decided to nip into the Fissure of Woe and forgot to swap my build back from a crappy fun build I'd been running... /sigh.

Death By Ketchup
Guess it's not to bad compaired to some other peoples, but it was late, i was tired and sold 2 ectos for 9g instead of 9k.
Fury Incarnate
Hmm... My worst would probably be buying a stack of firewaters for 450ea thinking that they were 5 points each instead of 3. Not too bad, but 37.5k down the drain.

Quite a while back I purchased a req10 celestial longbow, modded perfectly like I wanted, for 65k. I gave it to my rit and for a couple months, ran R/Rt b/p in Tombs. Later on I switched to N/R MoP b/p, so it went on my necro. Fit the character perfectly.
For months I was careful not to sell the item, and would make sure it was in storage when I merched stuff (it took me nearly a month to find the bow, no way I was gonna merch it!).
So one night, after doing a Norn run farming points, where I used the bow to pull some mobs easily and got a few golds... I merched the bow. However, it took me about 2 weeks to notice it, as I wasn't b/p'ing anymore, I was in EotN and had other bows to pull with. When I got back into ToPK farming, I couldn't find the bow to save my life.
65k turned into ~300g. -_-.

Just recently, I made a sell thread and double-listed a Wintergreen Sword. One had it with a SB of 1k, and the other, listed with other holiday items, was a BO of 500g. Someone took the BO, and later, someone else placed a bid for 2k.
I had already sold it by the time the second person came in. To make it worse, another person made a thread in the Buy section offering 10k for a Wintergreen Sword. Oh, well...

salvaged ancient armor peice dyed black for rune
bought collector paragon shield for few plats (salvaged to iron ignots)
bought rit wand worthless green for 3k (still have it and never used)
and of course the cap signet but only once or twice.
saying in chat "I'm level 4 dwarf!" and quickly regetting how <insert adjective> that sounds and promising never to repeat that sentence again :P (last night)

Tender Wolf
Owning elite Luxon and Kurzick armor, needing 100k for a Titan gemstone to get Razah (which you don't need anymore), and selling the armor sets in the hopes of getting cash back and getting less than 1k.
A guildie wanting Vabbian armor so selling the max armor he has and is left with nothing but starter armor in Vabbi and getting one-hit by djinns.

Haha, letting someone fool me into deleting my 15k Glads and FoW helmet (t3h L337 comb0) because glads sucked. What can I say, 2am, tired, and peer pressured by someone I looked up into in the game (lol). This was the night before Factions was released, well morning technically.
Mesmer in Need
Lol just today I was messing with settings, and I accidentally change my screen resolution so high my monitor cant show it. So, i had to uninstall gw, take over 2 hours to reinstall it and re-download the updates, and finnaly get to play again. /facepalm.

icedwhitemocha
Hmmm.. well, I was in a late night GvG. We were playing some r62340234 PvE guild. Curbstomped them at the stand, and we were finishing them off as they ran back to their lord pit. I was frenzying my little heart out as I ran up to one of their warriors. The last skill usage I saw was sprint or something, so I promtly frenzy + bull's striked him. Thing is, he had both deadly riposte and riposte up. This was back when I was running 16 axe too.

Probably deleting my 11-month old character. I wanted to remake her with a less ugly face/haitrstyle, and I think I ended up with the same one after all that.
What the hell was I thinking?

These are all great and a very entertaining read. Its nice to see how GW has created such fond memories for us all and there are so many more to come!

I must add to my /winthread. Ready?
I salvaged off one of my heroes major vigors to switch to another one, but rather, I applied it to my chest armor which has a sup vigor. GG? Yes, I do believe that is /gg, for not only did I lose my Sup Vigor, but I also had to use a perfect salvage kit to get major off, and then buy a new Sup vigor and apply that. ANNOYING.

Worst I've done was back in the day when ectos were worth 7k, probs about a year or so ago. Anyway my friend and I were doing a 55/ss uw run, and got a few ectos. So anyway i sold one to another player for 7g, instead of 7k... obv this was before the trade window update where gold shows up in a different format. Still not as harsh as Mr. Rahja. lol that sounds like an absolute wounder

Not on Guild Wars but it's pretty embarassing/funny looking back at it.
Like a lot of people on GW My first MMO was Runescape. Loads of people talking and one person in particular saying ''lmao'' alot. This was my first few days on an online game, being pretty young I assumed ''lmao'' meant ''lame-o.''
SO! I was getting pretty pissed off at this person saying ''lmao'' so I told them to stop calling everyone ''lmao'' And they were the ''lmao''.
I ran off leaving a very confused bunch of people saying ''lmao''.
...Such a noob.. =]

I think I deleted my Insightful Ether Staff of Enchanting (all stats perfect) while cleaning out quest items from my inventory. I rock.
Ember010, I remember doing the same thing as a response to "asl", which I of course believed meant "asshole", on one of my first encounters with the internet.
"no you're an asl"

Besides, Superior Vigors are cheap. And compared to a lot of other things that people have lost, they always have been. Stop making a fool of yourself.

'Post your worst self-ownage?' He cant post whatever he likes, my worst self ownage was putting a smiley after this post, because I know his nice face will irritate some after reading this post.

on my first toon, I attempted to salvage a sup monk rune with a normal salvage kit :3
This was back right after 55 was made popular and the rune was worth +20k.

Oh noes, my entire existence is wasted and without purpose now. My ePeen, oh please, stop using such silly terms. That term needs to be destroyed. Here, let me atomize it. If anything, I posting how much of a noob I am. And Superior Vigors might be cheap for you, but I have 1k. So GG.

While ago, i was farming rago's flame staff for myself, and come around to about the 10th try and i see it there, within my grasp....and the cat sits on the powerbar *grrrrrr
