In fact, call your Elf "Adoring fan", retire, then go in with another character and recruit the Elf. Get a Hammer, get to Legendary using it, go to the highest Mountain Peak you can find, and figure the rest out on your own :P.

Centration. Similar to Spacestation 13, but in 3D and first-person. Sounds damn awesome.

The first time I encountered that NPC greeting, I was just walking away from having stolen from the person saying that (using sneak to actually steal it, of course).  I thought I was in trouble.

Alternately: The Brick Testament. It's a really fun look at what the bible would look like if interpreted literally. With Legos.

yeah, its fun just running around towns eating daedra hearts in front of people for no apparent reason.
Also fun to snipe them from afar, either with magic or arrows...
Although its more fun with magic as you can make a spell that hits everyone in the whole town, either killing them all or just doing 1 dammage... then the Fun times begin.

No no. The real fun begins when you get a spell that has a Berserk effect that covers a MASSIVE area. It's pretty funny to see a peasant punch a guard, only to get run through by a halberd.

On my favorite character I used alchemy to boost my intelligence to about 3000, enchanted my equipment to hell and back(nothing gamebreaking like 100% chance to dodge damage), and then... got lost in the side-quests.

I did once create boots of flight and two area spells though: the first hit an entire town, the second did several hundred damage to a much smaller area.

Oh lord... the alchemy bug... :D

In my stronghold, I had a potion called "Draft of Godly [Attribute]" for each of the six attributes.

The extent of my exploitation of this bug was quaffing several uber-potions for strength and speed, then bounding over the Ghostfence. After I refined my aim, I was able to land on the floating Ordinator base near the Vivec temple.

My favorite enchanted item was the "Five Fingers of Death." It was an exquisite ring that did like 50 points of damage in Fire, Frost, Shock, Damage Health, and Poison. Another one was an Ebony scimitar that did the exact same thing, except 25 instead of 50, on strike.

Another fun memory was the "Warlord's Armor" set. Basically, take a full set of Ebony, and enchant each piece with as much Fortify Strength as you can.

Of course the worst exploit of all is easily selling shopkeepers constant damage equipment and watching them drop over dead in seconds. And all without a bounty!

No idea, my "thievery" was just me casting several hundred percent chameleon on myself(plus the ring of shadows!) and grabbing everything not nailed down.
