To quote myself:

Happened to me too the first time i played. Killed the scamps and ran to the door. I stood there a few seconds to gather courage, and then ran for it. Straight trough. Nothing happened.
I thought there was something wrong with the game so I asked my brother what i should do.
My brother: "You're supposed to walk through the gate."
Me: "It didn't work"
My brother: "Try again."
*I run through back and forth like a lunatic*
Me: "See?"
My brother: :facepalm:


Oh, and when the sky turned red as I ran up the hill to get to kvatch I was scared [censored]less!

*Huge flaming Oblivion gate looms threateningly overhead*
Alright, now we're talking!

(Start running to gate)

*Interrupted by guard
"You're going to help us? Really? Do this this and this, thanks, bye."

(Slight irritation)
(Continue to walk to gate)

"Hum...alrighty then - here we go; slightly less epic due to the whole guard incident...but anyhow..."

(Activate + Enter gate)

Wha---*Clannfear'd* *Dead*

Well like most people the first time:

Took a deep breath, drew my sword, said out loud 'lets do this' and jumped through. Man I wished I could have seen the dumb look on my own face when nothing happend.
Jumping through several times and thinking: 'WTF, is this thing broken?' Eventually I figured out that activating it works best :D

In my first few games on my old PC though, I usually raced through the main quest to get rid of those gates who ruined my framerate. (until I figured out that never going to Kvatch works too)
Now I have a nice new fast PC and in my latest game I'm going for closing all the Oblivion gates, I'm on 26 now. I love hacking Oblivion scum to bits with my very good warrior cat.

I blinked a few times, took a deep breath and said:

"OMFG THIS IS BULL THEY SAID THIS WOULDN'T HAPPEN!? GODDAMIT!"

Then I proceeded to draw my current Silver Longsword, don my stolen guard armor [Taken from a guard killed by something on a road actually] and I ran towards the gate. As I was just about to stupidly try and JUMP through it, (I'm looking at you guys. Lol) a scamp came out and attacked me. After I killed it I was standing right next to the gate, it said to activate it... I just lolled at the thought that I was going to try and jump through it like something would happen.

When I saw the first gate, I thought: "This is a very good time to make a savegame."

Then I did the walk-through-the-gate thing about a half dozen times before realizing I had to activate it.

Fishy walks into gate and the story goes on after that .....

First time i saw that gate i got my brother hanging over my shoulder (he was an oblivion junky long before i started) He says to me, "Dude, you're screwed."

I took a minute to think about it.

Then I jumped in and said "Yay. Death."

I still jump through them before I enter to make sure I get everything that's around it before going in, just to make sure nothing will kill my horse while I'm in there going for the Sigil Stone.
Lately I've been naming my horses and I like them, plus they are expensive.

:obliviongate:

First time I said " NO. No." I walked around it and entered Kavatch. Came back out and thought "*sigh* here goes everything... From the last autosave."
