AO is the main topic, but you can also talk about things like the latest console game you've played, web comics, movies, music, etc. as they pertain to your AO experience.

BEFORE you started playing AO!
I wish someone had told me to read the story!! Honestly, I started playing just because someone suggested I play - it was a nice break from Tomb Raider at the time and my first MMORPG.. I had no idea what I was getting into *grins*
I wish someone had explained to me about implants... and how they were completely and utterly useless without any clusters in them *coughs*

I wish I had known about not putting IP in Map Navigation. I think I capped it for about the first 30 lvls

I was going to to say I wish I knew what weapon of choice I was going to use on my MP, but then again I think that would also be one of the Devs top 10 too

1/ I wish I'd known how much of my life it would take up...
2/ I wish I'd known that having a top end tradeskilling Engi wouldn't be as lucrative as I'd thought...
3/ I wish I'd known FC would take away Ingots before I spent a couple of months creating a character suitable to farm them...
4/ I wish I'd known how much my G/F wouldn't like it...
5/ I wish I'd known how much a brand new computer (to combat the lag) would cost me...
6/ I wish I'd known how easily I'd get addicted...
7/ I wish I'd known how many Forums I'd end up Moderating due to AO...
8/ I wish I'd known that everyone that isn't American has to pay MORE for AO...
9/ I wish I'd known if there was a list somewhere of RARE nanos & items that are worth big credits before I started looting & terminaling Dyna items (I'm possitive I've terminaled a GA1 & a GA3 sisk)...
10/ I wish I'd known a 10th item...

Don't make me come in there and Moderate you!

Wish I'd known when my son asked me if I wanted to try AO as he had been playing a couple of years. I was addicted and now my son doesn't get to play.

(my first post btw, hi all)

I wish I'd known how hard this game is .. cause I can't figure anything out! Since my husband is too lazy and I have to read all the guides and forums.
Oh .. and I found an ingot ... heh

I wish I'd known a semi-decent setup for IP when I started. Took me a month of rolling and rerolling untill i found a setup that didn't leave me dying in lvl 8 missions when I was lvl 10...
