Exar_reborn Posted July 11, 2004 Posted July 11, 2004 http://search.ebay.com/SWG_W0QQfromZR8QQsosortorderZ2QQsosortpropertyZ3 Just look at the first 20 or so listings and tell me that that isn't wrong.
Deft Aklin Posted July 11, 2004 Posted July 11, 2004 Lol That is just insane. If I cared enough, I'd have jedi...... But a womaizing old jedi just doesn't seem appropriate for rp purposes. *waves hand* "I am the man you've been looking for." Seriously though, that is insane. That's like a commission check for me.
Darth MarcII Posted July 11, 2004 Posted July 11, 2004 LOL! That's funny! You know, you could make a living doing that. There are Everquest players who have been doing this for years. You know, that really defeats the the purpose of an RPG. To interact with people and get satisfaction from building your character. Some people just want something for nothing. Well, if you can call $3,000 nothing. That's a semester's worth of college tuition at some schools.
Darth MarcII Posted July 11, 2004 Posted July 11, 2004 I thought SOE was supposed to have stopped this. I'm sure the players selling the characters know it's a violation of the EULA.
MasterKakashi Posted July 13, 2004 Posted July 13, 2004 omg thats crazy.who the hell would pay 3000 bucks for a frickin game charachter
Wraith 8 Posted July 13, 2004 Posted July 13, 2004 yeah it makes me sick aswell. people are just weird.... the saddest thing of all isnt the people selling. its the people buying
Exar_reborn Posted July 13, 2004 Author Posted July 13, 2004 Actually they have created an E business. I am doing my senior project on it. If you type in Lineage II, AC, AC2 and so on. Lineage II is a horrible place to play. It isn't even a RPG anymore b/c over 40% of the players are farming Adena ( currency). The chinese are notably the best at this and have created online companies. There are also the lvling services that come from this. People that spend 8 hour shifts lvling a character every day. Its insane that all of this has come from an online game.
Devil Doll Posted July 14, 2004 Posted July 14, 2004 Hahahaha you know what it's more insane still? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=4596&item=8117467449&rd=1 People selling their services to level up a character. "I'm asking you to pay me 500 bucks to play your game" I think I should start doing that LoL
Darth MarcII Posted July 14, 2004 Posted July 14, 2004 Good Lord, now that is just pathetic. I really have no issues with people who buy some credits to get themselves started, but now people want to play your game for you and expect you to pay for it? Absurd, to be kind. I also have serious issues with people selling and buying characters.
Sounds Risky Posted July 22, 2004 Posted July 22, 2004 I have issues with people who have issues with people who do that.
KillerDude84 Posted July 27, 2004 Posted July 27, 2004 Yeah, paying someone else to level you up is just insane. I have a friend who works on one of his friend's account, but thats mostly because his friend is in Iraq right now and doesnt have the chance to play, but he more just monitors the store and creates new objects to sell, not grinding his ass away for it. I have no problem with that, but paying $100+ dollars for a freaking profession, geez, thats too far.
Cercueil Posted July 28, 2004 Posted July 28, 2004 the most fun in games like this is the journey...not the goal. I want to be a BH, but it would be meaningless if i didnt do it myself.
Iwok Posted July 30, 2004 Posted July 30, 2004 lol, thats hilarious. Selling Zeto! He mastered 19 professions.. Doesnt have a jedi... but he is a great character! Only $3000 and its yours!! lol...
