QCDN - Funny Noob Sayings

There is a post in Alla about "Funny Noob Sayings". It is over 50 pages.
I was thinking about getting one started for QCDN so here it is. I hope
to read many funny things from all of you.



I'll start with my own contribution (I'll try to condense it.)
I'll focus on my very first day because it is the noobiest and funny.





Dinky is my IRL friend. He quit the game now. When he was on, I was playing
a FPS called America's Army. He kept trying to get me to play "his" game and
I wouldn't. I decided to try it and suprise him. So I bought it and went for
installation without telling him first.


Installation lasted forever. I started bitching and my wife was laughing at me.
I finally created my character: Marduk (I'm always "Marduk73" on all my games
even on America's Army) I think I was on the Valefor server; by random.


During the lengthy installation, I grabbed and read the manual(VERY CRAPPY MANUAL)
and the cardboard keyboard layouts. I was upset you can't remap keys.



Finally it was installed. Marduk the new Galka Warrior is ready to kick ass. I
chose Bastok as the manual said Galka were from that area. Well there is my crappy
warrior in his new home town. Only I can't move. I hit all the keys that I can
think of: WASD, arrows, NOTHING worked.

People laughed at me.

I figured out /say and was asking for help.

People laughed more.

I thought: "Wait til I can move and I'll pull out my weapon and kill that guy."
(only I didn't know you had to equip it until after my 5th fight. Never mind
that you can't attack a PC outside Ballista.)

I was so frustrated because I started installation 4 hours prior, was in
the game and couldn't move. I started pounding my keyboard and
cussing. The wife was ROFL at me.




Someone finally helped me and showed me around. I could move and open doors.
Yeah! Noobish-ness diminishing. I made level 6 then emailed or called Dinky;
can't remember which.


Then, I found I was on the wrong server. He helped me get a pass and I had to
get a new name because "Marduk" was taken already; BY ME. ><


So Duffman was born and Dinky PL'd me back to level 6 where I was from the begining.
Only difference was he talked me into being Windurstian.








*****yes, I stole the idead from ALLA's site. I see it more of "PORTING" the thread
over to QCDN, now start posting your own noob stories for us to read and laugh at*****
 
i thought leaping lizard was an actual lizard that would be leaping on my screen, bunny rabbit kinda leaping, just hopping a long... it took me 4 months to find out i was so wrong...
 
i used to think that Chocobo Mazurka gave you a chocobo....

I'm pretty sure you can have the same name on different servers. Someone on your new server just already had that name.
 
Bah, I have the best noob story ever.

When I first got the game, I disdained the manual. Skimmed it a little, but for the most part I just jumped in feet first. So I'd been leveling my War for a while, and got to level 8 pretty quickly all things considered. My friend Reece came along and said that I was getting to the point where I should consider heading to Valkurm Dunes. To which I replied: "Yeah, but how do you get there without a white mage? I can barely get to Konschtat before I have to head back to the Mog House to heal..."

Yeah, I didn't know how to rest! :D

I'd wondered what all those people kneeling down were doing, cuz when I typed /kneel, I just got right back up again...

When i first started out, i didnt know how to heal myself, and as BLM i the job i chose first i didnt have heal... So i would fight then die then HP then die HP die HP.... over and over for 6 hrs. until i accidnetly hit the * key, and my character sat down, and healed himself. I got to lvl 5 this way....

HAHAHAHA
 
Told to me by a dear friend Demonknightx about his newb days:

He was told by a few friends he should try leveling some in the Konschtat Highlands. So he goes up on Vomp Hill and was like "Everything up here is easy prey now..."

Best thing I and he's ever heard from a newb: "Where can I buy a scroll of Provoke?"
 
I started on a laptop so all the directions in the manual wouldnt work. I had to change the keyboard settings to compact and it wasnt particularly easy to figure that out. So I stood in the archway of windurst gate with that stupid ? over my head unmoving for something like 3 hrs, trying to figure out how to move. People would poke me or wave or sit next to me, and i would use noob /say but they didnt use compact either.

I've been running ever since then though.. to make up for lost time.

i didnt have the slightest idea how to heal. when i get a game, i jump right in and figure it out then read the manual later
 
Whelp, when I started the game, and finally purchased my first set of Subligar, I refused to wear it, thought people would laugh at me. I stayed in racial gear for longer than I can legally admit to. :oops:

Another noob story I know is a friend of mine, when he started, everytime he died, he'd delete and recreate his character, thinking that dying would be recorded negatively, like a few other games do.(Resident Evil, etc)

Edit: Just remembered the first time I saw someone shout for a Tele-Holla. The person said: "Can anyone give me a Tele-Holla?" I thought he was trying to be 'street', saying: "Can anyone give me a Tele? Holla!"
 
I used to think you could run/climb over things that weren't as high as your kneecap.

Anderithe: My god why can't I take a step up a HALF FOOT! I HATE SAN'DORIA!
Others: What a noob.
 
i saw people warp and whatnot, i started in sandy and needed to get to my friends hometown so me and him could pt together. so i shouted in sandy "can i get a warp to bastok". i had no idea how the teleports or warps worked. god, i cant imagine what people were thinkin when i shourted that
 
lol i got a lot more stories, like... i how i got stuck in Jeuno with no money... and no chocobo.

Or the trip to sandy for a drain scroll only to figure out, what "Fame" was
