When Greed outweighs Honesty and Friendship
Posted: Tue May 12, 2015 2:04 pm
Most of you who know me are aware I usually stay out of the politics of the game; I am a player, who attempts to help my fellow players as much as I can. I believe in the “Play it forward”, theory to help all folks. I am not a greedy person as you know, but I am fair. Of course, like others, I have been “scammed” and do not like or appreciate it. For those who do not know, I am a plat buyer, I spend about $5,000 to $10,000 a year with this game and have from the beginning. If that upsets you, it should not, it is what keeps the game going. Ask any DM and he will let you know, that’s what lets us all play the game, not just the free players, who might borrow items from others etc. But it is all the interaction of all of us that keep it an interesting game. We all work hard, with time and effort, spending money for idols and potions to keep our character alive and as up to date as we can make them with whatever resources we have available to us.
All of us know the rules for items at bosses, even as they change, we all follow them accordingly. We all fight for a random selection for a chance at a item that may improve our character, even slightly. For others, anyone, to be the Dice Master (DM) and take an unfair advantage over others trust of the rules, is beyond my perception of fairness, due to greed. I am saddened by this, especially by someone who I have helped on numerous occasions in the past when no one else would friend them. Then to use some trick that spammed me so that It would not allow me to do a Shout or Say about their dishonesty is beyond me.
Greed is what is is, always will be, and I am saddened by it. I will report the situation of the use of Script to stop people from using their Shouts or Says as this is a blatant misuse of the ability to play the game correctly, when you can just Block the player.
I am not looking for responses, or answers, I just felt I need to say something, it saddened me that much.
Excuse my Thread, I don’t usually write anything in forums as you know, but this upset me greatly.

for simply being a merchant. the term greedy describes much more people in this game than many realize. i've been called greedy by some of the most dishonest and money hungry players. it's pretty contradicting. i'll admit, I like to make money and get good deals, but i never let that get in the way of honesty and friendship. I cannot say the same for others. fact is, if there is someone bothering you, just try to ignore them or talk to me in game. i've never been selfish when it comes to helping others and sharing useful information.
