hehe my favorite newbie story is from beta
A friend of mine and I (God we were rotten eggs) made characters named
Banker and Teller
We'd stand in front of the actual bankers in freeport bank
I got about 35 plat before we got yelled at. My friend (banker) got over
100 plat :)
Was quite the scandal.
But we had fun doing it and had some really nice equipment for our "Real"
characters :) Gotta love the mad rush of Beta 4 folks that had never seen
the game before :)
I think Banker and Teller are in the "Bad name" database now ;) I was
thinking about making an Iksar banker just for old times sake but it
wouldn't let me reserve the name ;)
hehehe
