When I first started playing it was the patch right before Fire Drake, I think Knight Empire, and it was really a sad state of affairs. I spent the first full week killing things with my bare hands, I had no idea u could equip the dagger, or anything else for that matter. Like I legit didn't know things got equipped. It took me about a month before I left Moradon, as I didn't know El morad even existed. I spent the whole time running around like an ass-hole all by myself in 1st person view (It was only after watching a pk video that I realized that 3rd person view might be a little bit better). I probably hit lvl 30 at the most at the end of that month. I was about 23 years old at the time so there really isn't any excuse for my retardation, except for the fact that it was my first computer based mmo I'd ever tried out. I also remember Buddha running around mora telling everyone how much better he was than everybody, and asking us where our capes were. He was a pretty cool guy with an awesome life I'm sure. Needless to say I had a slow learning curve. I learned about the anvil way late into the game after some rare altruist actually walked me over to the thing and showed me how to use it. This was all done using a laptop with a touchpad and no mouse. When the Fire Drake patch came, I spent about a week trying to figure out why the exp wasn't giving me random X100's anymore then I fianlly realized that it was an event and not regular game play. It's all I knew to be normal at the time. Also being as naive as I was I was trying to figure out how some people were running 20 times faster than anyone else, and I thought I was doing something wrong. Well, I think that about sums up my embarrassing entry to this game. I'm sure there is plenty more I did wrong but that's all I can think of off the top of my head.
