Most Embarrassing Newb Story.

Well mine is short and simple.

In 2002 or 2003, I was a trial. I would play Unholy Nation for hours. My name in real life is Aaron. I would always go to the body station, and put on the same armor body and make it gray. Then I would remember my shield (haro41-flamewings.png) and put it on. I would use the same head and sword (death-sword.png) Now at this time my brothers friend was playing, so I would always look for him.

See, when you wanted to go in your car you would say "caron" well, since my name was Aaron I thought that was my brothers friend making fun of me. So, I would always follow them and tell them to be quiet and I would scream at them even though they had done nothing wrong. I continued doing this for many months until I finally got a car and realized what they were saying. I felt like a real spaz, but I was only 7 or 8.

So what's your story?

In my trial days I would constantly try to look like videogame characters. -.-
First I HAD to be link. Then I HAD to be Mario. After I finally learned how to submit heads and bodies, I made some horribly pillow shaded Samus heads (from metroid) and several recolors and got them uploaded. I even had a body and shield that looked like the metroid gun. Then this douche that hated me because of my newbish antics decided to delete my graphics for infringement or something. Then I got over it and started using those *** ass wing shields. God damn you haro. -.-

I started getting into online video games one summer when my grandmother was visiting. My grandma's last name is Newby. I think I was playing a Command and Conquer game at the time, but everyone was calling me a "newby" and I thought it was because my grandma got on and played

I was pretty young, but I remember feeling like an idiot when I found out what they actually meant

Whenever I was a real newb, I spent about 15 minutes yelling at a UN pet to tell me it's body "codes" because I somehow thought it was a player v_v

Lol, a couple of other trials and my self back in 2003, we put on these moving dragon bodies, I forgot the name (this is for Unholy Nation). We used to go to these hidden houses or castles and pretended we were dragon lords and that we would take over the server. Our cabal had like 20 trials in dragon shields running around everywhere saying we will kill you.

In my very early days, I somehow acquired a sax. I would sit in Town Center of Unholy Nation playing. My name was set to Streetperformer {needs tips for instruments} and play in the same spot for hours. hitokiribattousai <-(I think that's the account name, her nickname was Neko) would always come in with her fricken organ and mess me up.

I could only play like 3 songs.

(Streety was a nickname derived from "Streetperformer")

Edit: I used to wear a monkey out fit. Tail and all.. with glasses

I remember back on GK when I made a fake guild called "The Secret Order" and roleplayed a spy...

I feel like an idiot when I reflect on it, but hey, I started Graal when I was 8, and did that not long after.

I had it worse, I deleted comments of over 30 people, and their gp files. Although the files got restored the comments never returned. However, I was recently un-banned. N-Pulse has changed very little since my last visit last August.
