To Ebay Or Not To Ebay

[DeOxY]

Everyone knows about the bots spamming their d2 stores all over the place... But does anyone ever buy from them? If you do or have done it before, post here.

[DeOxY]

Im just asking other people's opionion.

My question is: Why pay money that you or your parents have worked hard for just to get a virtual item that you will never be able to touch and you could find yourself or trade for.

why back before d2 implmented poofing on items and duping was easy 3 computers computer a loged in joined a game from computer c then right when it went to the laoding screen u alt tabed out. Computer b then loged into same accoutn and char droped items then left computer c picke dup items and computer a alt tabed back. I bought a few items to dupe and sell on ebay easy money tobady i spent it on drugs lol

why do people pay $500 for EQ characters with mid range armor?? I havent the slightest. my friend just payed 700-800 for a lvl 70 i think, w/e the top lvl is now in EQ, Monk...i'm conentemplating killing him for that.

me I would much rather just hack the crap out of a character and beat up all dumba$$'s that payed money for they equipment.

what tha fux, who tha fux pays $500 plus for a character? OMG u people is so fuxing stupid. $500 dollars for virtual shit? i dont care what game it is. what is E/Q anyway?

[Fuggle]

Everquest im sure you have heard of it, I dont think I know anyone who hasnt. Hell even my parents know what it is, its always on the news in places. Anywayz if you happen to win the lottery and have like 100 mil than why the hell not, not like 100 bucks will cause you to go bankrupt, but other than that I think its the most retarded thing ever.

I don't care if people buy from ebay or the D2 sites, my only gripe is that if you do buy from them, you just perpetuate the spambots, if nobody bought stuff, there would be no reason to spambot. I think people need a little more patience. Sure, it's quick and EASY to buy stuff, but if you give it a little time and EFFORT, you can find/trade for all the godlies you need. But that's just my opinion. Feel free to call me an idiot.

patience is a virtue and sadly those are the decline as of late.

qweeve, i'll take your invitation.
you're an idiot. as much as i'd like to believe you, and as much as i know how true it is, it's not true and impossible.
A) you can use c3po to block all spambots, it works great.

you surely speak of what might be called "traditional american values." patience, hard work, effort, spending time on things that are important. do you REALLY think that that even EXISTS TODAY?! with the spread of botting, and spamming, and cheating and hacking and bugging and lying, there IS no such thing as effort. there's no such thing as trying, caring, patience, or hard work. as much as i'd like there to be, there ISNT. sorry, but people will always find ways to not do work and get results.. boy, i feel cynical.

[qweeve]

Like I said, just my opinion. By the way, me thinks you protest too much. Maybe you EBay?

[nujabes]

ya seriously only those 'hardcore' gamers and stuff buy them. and those super rich spoiled kids. jeez its just a game u can find it urself anyways. how do u think those stores got em?

What do you mean drop it? Like the bot picking it up and tossing it for another item?

[Arbitzz]

i absolutely agree, why buy something u cant touch that you ro your parents have worked hard 4 the money too nicely said

[Timetear]

i meant that when i kill a monster, the item that he drop is the one i just bought

[Foog]

yeah, and no i don't ebay, i'm too poor. and i don't live my life over d2, it's pointless. why would you spend more money on a game? i got my copy free anyways.
