GM events = plat

[ryandward]

So today I see Korrath, the Troll Druid running around with Golden Efreeti Boots, and wonder to myself, "How much plat did this nub make by selling his toon?". This is because I spent quite a while in EC watching prices, but saw Korrath for a long time saying crazy nub stuff for a week or two, decked out in patchwork.

So then, what happened to Korrath? I asked the guy if he bought Korrath, he said yeah. GM events seem like they are just ways for people to make a crap ton of plat off selling toons and accounts, so frustrating IMO.

I don't know if there is away around it, since the GMs are trying to reward newbies with cool items, but instead they just turn around and sell them.
