Default 9 years of P99 and my first interaction with an asshole

I was looking for some items today and a player messaged me that they have them and asked what I was offering. As I usually do I check the wiki and gave them an offer of the recent sales +100 cause I really don't care for the trade games and maximizing value of every trade. The response back was that I was getting too good of a deal and they are in no hurry to sell. I mentioned that I looked up the values and I felt it was fair and TY and GL and the response was "May your parents die of cancer". I have been off and on playing this game and been through a lot of drama on this server having been in BDA and logging in one day and the guild was done. I am actually not mad at all about the player but it made me realize that it's pretty crazy that this is my first real negative interaction on p99 considering on live there were many many more in a short period of time.

Because pixels on a private server emulating a 23 year old game are serious business.

Meanwhile I've had people just give me stuff for free because hey it's just pixels on a private server emulating a 23 year old game. We're here to have fun and relive nostalgia.

Some people geez.

I guess my experience with BDA was great. Everyone was super friendly to me and the reason I joined the guild in the first place was somebody giving me a bunch of free shit for no reason since I was a noob. They also helped me get my shaman epic.

That's so far over the top, is it a certainty that it wasn't an attempt at humor that missed the mark?

I guess that hadn't crossed my mind but I have a dark sense of humor and it didn't resonate for me.

You sir, are incredibly lucky. I would say the vast majority of players I run into are nice/helpful/fun, maybe 90%? But those 10% are horrible and I seenm too run into them too often. Unlucky for me, I guess. Glad your experience has been better.

How often do you play when you aren't on drugs?

I guess all the time? I have a good stock of edibles now but I don't think I have ever taken them playing EQ.
