Same happened to me.. I was playing a warrior, and accepted too many gifts
from other players that I got my second dot (fighting solo) at level 22.
Started anew with a sorceror, and he's level 34 now and still enjoying
nightmare hell (still looking for zodiac stuff, though!  Best I've found is
an amulet of the heavens +15 to all, and I prefer my amber amulet of
wizardry to that most of the time.)  Also played with a warrior for a
while.. he's level 30 now, can go through normal/hell, nightmare/caves or
hell/catacombs without much trouble, but still looking for the great items.
(saintly plate of giants is what I have.. still looking for godly plate of
heavens or whale =) )

I still have a lot of mileage left in the game too.. started a
single-player game with a warrior and played about 10 levels of that,
enjoying the different quests and stuff, and I'll play that character
through to Diablo eventually.  Also plan to start a multiplayer rogue next
week (will be home from college, plan to play serial and modem with other
friends.)

Moral of the story: earn the stuff yourself.. a lot more enjoyment that
way.
