I have two.

-Not reading the Terms & Conditions, posting a chain letter on ten different fourms,and ending up with my account Big_D_56966 frozen.
Oh, how I cried that day. I'm trying to get it back through.

-Joining as the Curse of Maraqua plot started and asking if Maraqua was some sort of Japanese Princess. My friend was laughing so hard he nearly fell backward and cracked his head open.

Feel free to post here!
Starting to play Neo. No mistake can be bigger than that.

Amen. Mine is still trying to get my account back. I probably should stop trying since I'm better off without my account.

Other than that, I remember traded an H4000 Helmet for a Leaded Light Vial (I thought it was elemental Closedeyes)

Uhm. I remember a day,when I was playing scorchy slots (yes, SCORCHY) trying to get some Neopoints and meanwhile getting like 10 codestones a day via random events. "Arg, I want NPs not that damn stones!!11one", I said.
I exchanged them for very, very lame things that mean people offered in my codestone trades. A week later I learned to use shop wizard u_U

Oh, A month ago I spent 2 millions in nerkmids. I'm a bit less close to that Sword of Skassden now. u_u
When I was brand new, I shopped in malls whenever I had a faerie quest, because I couldn't think of any other way to get the item I needed. I... think that's actually it.

Truth.

Besides that, probably getting frozen. o_o

I fell for an extremely simple TP scam (basically a guy used multiple accounts) and handed away some valuable item for nothing. I think it was a Mystical Fish Lobber. My greed overwhelmed by common sense.

Lets see... not being careful eneough and dying on NQII insane (early on in act 2). I came back to get a WOR in the end anyway, so all's well that ends well... or rather, not, because I ended up trading the WOR for the Mystical Fish Lobber mentioned above.

I think there's been one or two other things, I'll post them if I remember them.
I made the mistake of letting my little sister use my computer (not sure if it was entirely my fault, though, as my parents wouldn't have let me stop her). Either I left a window up, or she had someone else get her on to Neopets (on my account, since it was my computer) and began 'feeding' my pets. She apparently (not sure I believe her, even though this was years ago) mistook the pound page for the Soup Kitchen and abandoned my battle pet with all my equipment on it (Golden SS [back when it defended ALL fire and air], Improved Fire Sceptre [took me forever to get], and Hypno Helm [only 100k at the time]). I got so mad, mostly because it was my favourite pet, but partly because I lost almost all my np.
I traded a retired petpet worth 1.3mil for a petpet worth 105k. the scammers friend mailed me and said hed give me 7mil for the 105k petpet so I auctioned it and he called me a scammer
Oh, I just remembered another two kinda big mistakes I made. The first was trading a Hypno Helm for an Icy Glove back when both were 100k. The second was letting my total np temporarily drop below 100k and thus being unable to buy the 99k Slimy Negg I found on the Shop Wiz (it stayed there for several minutes, too).

That's essentially the mistake I fell for. Except the guy used multi accounts in my case... which is actually illegal, but TNT ignored me when I reported him.
