People dragging mobs into Guldorand, resulting in me having to raise the pile of dead NPCs.

Oh my character was about to break the "Don't lure enemies inside" sign after he was chased and almost killed by tallassians and the sign pissed him off. Thanks for reminding me :P

I swear I wanted to take Harper levels with my mage only to be rid of constant nagging of spell components.
Pity it didn't fit the RP.

Dwarves. This requires repeating. The quest to extinguish from Arelith is longer and ardous than ever before as their numbers continue to increase from unknown evil sources.

Horse shrinking to a pony when you ride it because you are a Halfling and you must be this tall to ride a horse.

Horse growing back to full size when you get off them because valor is inches to horses and it deserves to be big with all its valor as it hooves down dragons and orcs to the death, while it's owner valor is unfortunately not represented in inches.

Forgetting to get off your pony before transitioning and ending up in the Arelith Start area, causing your character to glare at your horse at it's plane jumping powers.

Dwarves.

The fey in the Yondallan Chapel, representing the church. Now everyone will think Halflings are as naughty as pixies.

Dying because you chose to run rather than fight, when you could have easily fought your way out.

That spears are 1d6 instead of 1d8. Sadness.

Not having enough time to roleplay with all these great characters around.

Or when an epic level character is just casually grinding a level 10 zone for potion drops.

Yeah, someone really should do something about all those surface races. Goblins, gnolls, and kobolds get out; Keep the Underdark for underdark races!

We need to build a wall, a great big yuge wall. And we'll make Cordor pay for it.

Being a bard and trying to get everyone close enough so that your bard song reaches everyone..

Also doesn't help that casting said bard song takes such a long time, so by the time you cast it your group's 30 feet ahead of you. ^_^

- This. So much this, especially "Watching good players who add fulfilling, fun rp for everyone struggle to raise..."

- plowing through an area of spawns that only give you 1-2 xp, several times throughout your travels, only to suddenly walk in one day and have the floor mopped with your face by those same spawns

- the severe lack of fixture space, especially in areas where several residences share the cap. I just want like a crafting table, a forge, a dining table, eight chairs, four paintings, three statues, two altars, and you know what? I should have a sign beside my sign at my door, and a message board. In fact, I should get a message board about the message board to help keep things simple, and a flag to denote which one the public should use. Is that too much to ask??

- randomly eats seven rations

- stands up and suddenly robes turn into full plate armor

- And last, but by far not least, spending a solid five minutes outside the Nomad trying to find the perfect camera angle, and having to *snaps out of an odd trance* your character to reengage in rp.

Cities/Planes is down for some reason and you can't remember where you logged out. So you start on the Surface. Then Cities/Planes lives again and yanks you into it.

You just doomed yourself to the Groundhog Loop of revisiting the entry area that leads to the Cordor newbie spawn boat four times and wasting your pocket money on the boat to the surface only to be teleported back to the start and have to escape all over again.
