....wha?
*Cue Alvor warcry*
And i didnt know how to surrender, it didnt work like it did in oblivion. And then after that Alvor decided to crack my skull with his warhammer or something. Along with all the other idiot townspeople.
Sheesh.

I confused this for the Community Discussion, so I was hoping for some dirt on other forumers.

My first crime was stealing all the valueables in Riverwood. I broke into all the houses and stole everything.
That was before I knew I couldn't sell it.

I stole most everything in Riverwood, then realized they were following the Oblivion "Somehow your stolen goods are marked for every merchant in the world" ridiculous system and dumped it all in the river.

This was also the first time I had interacted with the water, and found out that things not only float, but that water actually moves in Skyrim, and watched my few hundred pounds of trash wash up on the coastline like a medieval New Jersey.

Punching some kid. It as accidental, I swear. But those Riverwoodians mercilessly murdered me and threw me in the river. I didn't even get a fair trial!

I finally got to make a Boondocks reference. Yes! Mission completed!

I stole something.

My first crime? I remember that I shot a cow with an arrow in Whiterun, and than someone started shouting that the cow was a valuable animal or something, and suddenly everyone started attacking me.
That happend 380 hours of gameplay ago, good old days...

Pretty standard... walked into the Inn in Riverwood and picked up a tankard... fairly obvious thing to do I thought (should have paid more attention to the 'steal etc.' tag)... suddenly it's like a scene from 'Dragnet'... 'stop thief'... APB... everyone wants a piece of me: guards, bystanders, old ladies... get beaten to a pulp in no time flat. I think that was one hour into the game.

What ever happened to 'sorry mate... let me replace your pint'.

I accidentally punched someone who wasn't my opponent during a brawl.

None
