I did this for almost every new kid I pvp'd that wasn't already twinked, it made things more fun and brought more of a human element rather than the toxic bs most of the server entails. Can't even begin to count the number of giveaways I did or noob events like lvl 1 FFAs etc. Glad you enjoyed your time here but even I wouldn't recommend starting back here, you can see the toxicity even from the forums.

Aside from two gankers, everybody has still been nice to me. The gankers did their thing, and then respected LNS. I signed on to play a pvp server, so that's par for the course. When I think about the economy of time, I'd rather solo or avoid ganks than wait for prime leveling spots. Not all the time, but usually.

Well, if you do decide to come back, let me know. You were fun.

pretty sure empire would not have ended if cross server trades weren't closed, huge incentive to sell on the black market to blueberries, staff n pals sure put an end to that, thank you

Right? Suddenly there were 30-50 one sided trades going on every day. It must have made it nearly impossible to track who was RMTing and when.

yeah

eh, its an open secret me, my crew, and other crews like aimchat all play on servers and then cash out when we are done. I remember talking to the lower on the ladder dudes within aimchat/empire. They were totally under the impression they where going to get equipped super fast, super easily, and then be able to RMT their character for mad $$.

then i truth bombed them, your not going to get shit for ur BIS velious char. its all no drop. noone buys characters, and resellers who do buy them, they buy them cheap to strip them sell the items for plat and then sell the plat for USD. back during kunark the resellers where buying BIS kunark accnts for 500 each, strip out all the items and triple the profit since everything was droppable in kunark.

releasing velious literally made it impossible for resellers to make any money. It's why you saw TMO and BDA both disapear during velious, they where huge RMT scams using under developed adult minds to farm mortgage money.

TLDR version, unless your some kinda junky, the 200 dollars your going to get for your decked out velious toon is not worth it, just keep your character if you arnt going to play and come back and train people until you get banned or something.

Man i was so looking to that big Velious payday where I could sell my BIS rogue for a 2 hour pay cheque.

Love it when people troll/joke about how the devs essentially killed reds sustainability -_-

Decibel been $ trading since before it was cool, dunno why yall are just now payin attention. Server is dead anyway, go ahead and allow RMT imo, maybe it would attract some more players. Can't get much worse

people say this often, but it seems to me that its actually growing, albeit slowly, but still growing.
