    Does forgetting to add a new Preservation Ward in a Rank 8 -> 9 enchantment after a failed upgrade count ? ...

    or using a freaking coal ward by mistake when making a r6? I totally did it on the old enchantment system, the <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> was so boring I barely took notice, and then I had spent 2 or 3 of them.

    . . . I've sent a full set of Sunite Cosmetic clothing to some unknown individual by mail before. I've also sent some unknown individual several rank 6 enchantments. I've gotten better at inputting my handle since....

    I bought High Vizier Tunic for 30K AD from the auction house back before I knew what a outrageously inexpensive amount that was.
    I'm sure the fellow that posted left out a zero, *condolences*

    Funny thing is, High Vizier Tunic's went for 20k for a few months before the price skyrocketed due to the change in DD chests.

    nothing and hopefully it'll stay that way but I was once close to discard fomorian blade for TR (wanted to change apparence and pressed discard instead but game asked me if I actually want to do that)

    Back when they cost hundreds of thousands of AD, I accidentally salvaged an Ancient necklace, with an R8 Dark Enchantment in it (which were also insanely pricey at the time). I was not amused.

    Haven't discarded anything - yet - as I'm super paranoid when transferring valuable items between my inventory, bank and email.

    I have however wasted 19000 glory and 7 seals on the wrong piece of PVP equipment and it would have been the final piece in my 4/4 set, so I ended up delaying my 4/4 set by nearly two weeks.

    I've also profiteered off of another's mistake. I bought an HR's Mulhorand offhand for 8k. The next cheapest was 56k at the time. I bought a fully refined Lesser Terror for 126k, 20 - 30k cheaper than most unrefined Lessers and that was when Peridot stacks were still in the 50 - 60k price range.
    PSA: You don't need to grind Spinward Rise for your Elemental artifact main hand if you have some AD lying around. You can craft it via the Tyranny of Dragon's campaign screen.

    The first thing I ever tried to link to a Chat Menu a "Dragon Egg" http://neverwinter.gamepedia.com/Dragon_Egg . Was the most valuable item at the time I had ever had and was quite chuffed. LOL pity it did not make it ti the chat window:)

    But I have lost AD from deleting Mail and a newly sold Item comes into the Mail Box. When deleting it seems to auto go to that new mail item instead of what you have clicked on. Note: Do not delete mail if you have something expensive for sale.

    I accidently also had an ANGEL on sale for a 300k bid and could not delete it after someone bid on it. Luckily I had priced it pretty low at the time 3.969,696 and it was bought out.

    Lost a couple of epic mounts due to the email system. Is it really hard to just auto-complete your own name when it does the same for other people?

    Oh well, it is a small loss to me

    What you do is send yourself "@dsjjdhjkg title: Mail system-or whatever" and whenever you need to send any of your characters a mail just click on reply on that message!!!

    Was switching companions, accidentally hit the "upgrade" button, saw the Confirm window but thought it was a confirm for getting the companion from idle to active.

    And poof, 500k AD gone into making a green pig blue. All the AD I had.

    Upgrading a 9 to a 10 without a preservation ward. They really should auto-fill if the previous attempt failed.

    I just hope that it would autocomplete my name once I start typing it.

    Its not just because of this issue, its really annoying typing out your whole handle if its really long.

    Autocomplete works for your friends' handles, why not yours?

    I agree. This is one of those quality of life upgrades I would also love

    I deleted a character before making sure all of my tradables were mailed... I lost a little under 100,000 AD thinking I had put it in the exchange. I have also deleted pieces of a weapon enchantment and a coal ward :(

    I've done a few bone headed maneuvers for sure. I bought 2 Blue stones (at full price before they dropped / went on sale) and put them both on the same character thinking I would equip one and mail the other later to a new alt. I maxed out the one stone and then put it into storage and forgot about it then without thinking a couple weeks later equipped the other "new" one in my inventory. Worst of all it's on a DC i hardly if ever play. The second bone headed one was accidentally discarded a stack of rank 7 enchants (about 60 of them that I was working on getting to 99 for about 9-10 months time) not my proudest moment - it was late I should have been sleeping and not been playing in both cases as sleep deprived is the same as insane in many cases (my two examples show that!)
