1) Posting this here, while within the Forum rules, is dumb. If you really felt screwed by what happened, you should have taken it up IC, written a note, made a prayer, sought salvation through BT. OOC complaining here will solve nothing, trust me.
Who says im not going to continue to seek Bt, I've been waiting for him for weeks. Waiting a couple more untill he shows up shouldnt be to hard.
Whinning Ic gets you fucked over more in the game than anything else.
2) Forget the manta-skin bracers.... the Shadow dagger? There are some items that, after inspecting them, just don't seem very Paladinly. Sac those bastards, and get something that looks good on a paladin. "Holding it for a friend" is not much better.
The shadow dagger, whats wrong about that ?
It can be worn by good alins, it doesnt even have a red aura. If your gonna dig up shit like that, how about these, Phylacterys, strage bracers, rings of fortitude All the pieces from hell.
If you can wear it there should be nothing wrong with it.
And for your Information I had only just got that dagger cause the thief i was with did actually lose his link whilst we were fighting kazz.
The crimson tail I can also use , shrug, I was holding it for a IC friend. There anything wrong with that ?, If you have a dwarf friend and you come by a piece of pwent which he might like, Is that bad to hold onto it for him ?
Your also like the ignorant Imm who un-empowered me, Makeing assumptions without even realising my Rp. For all you know I could have a mental complex that requires me to have a shadow dagger on me whenever able
To gather them so that I might trade them for a soul of a lost one or some shit.
It could be a quest item *COUGH*.
You knew nothing yet assume all.
2b) Actually, don't forget the mantas. That -is- a pretty weak excuse. You want evil artifacts near so you are reminded that evil exists?
I wanted a piece of eq for my Rp that would serve as a constant reminder of a occourance.
That was the only purpose. I could have removed the taint anytime I wanted to. Id rped with all the other paladins who asked about them. They all seemed to understand.
3) There's not enough context here to figure out what went on. For all we know, you were off killing Balator orphans. It looked to me that whichever IMM spoke to you had it in for you from the beginning. I somehow doubt an IMM was lounging around Asgaard, looking for Paladins at random to fuck over. My guess: You fucked up beforehand, and didn't even realize it. Maybe I'm wrong, but the part where the IMM says "I speak of a lot of things." strikes me as ominous.
I congratulate you , your starting to think alot broader, there are always allterior influencing factors.
I've been cfing since purge, I know that I didnt fuck up. I hadnt pked killed or done anything since I had loged in. I've been level sitting doing sweet fuck all waiting for Bt for the past couple weeks.
Also for your random paladin to fuck over theory.. If I had done something else, Why did the Immortal not mention that I had killed orphans or something like that.
Your argue is nullified in that respect.
The Immortal gave the reasons as to why, and was incredibly wrong in doing so.
4) As far as greed, we have no idea what's in your backpack or bank account, other than the fact that it was once 47 million gold coins. How a Paladin got to 47 million gold coins without ignoring good ol' Code Rule #2 is a bit beyond me.
Okay as for greed, Whoopy doo
Shit in my backpack... ROFL
dude how much elite eq or bs shit can you put in a backpack.. Do rember nothing limited.... Laugh.
My current bank account was about 500k or so.
the 47 million came from a level 37 duergar warrior who had 3 wide coppers 3 sets of pwent and a bunch of other shit, he was just full to the brim with hoarded eq.
I think I managed to blow about 5 million in 1 hour at the Inn, I gave away to everyone I knew IC about 500k or so each. I droped chucnks of million randomly around galadon and had a fun time with a Gold put hunting exercise. I stoped when I had about one and a half million left over.
What shocks me more tho is that your a VIP and yet dont know that a mere 1 million gold can be pissed down the drain in 10 hours of playing easily
when you start munching pills and potions running around, constanly keeping yourself enlarged flying etc etc etc.
You chew cash, now ontop of that you dont have time to sleep, so you run to the healer, heal heal, heal ref, heal mana
Boy there goes 100k real easily
With the character that i speak of I used to spend almost a solid hour each day money running so i could survive the next 9 hours of playing without haveing to run out of cash.
What do you want me to do, Start donating gold to empire ?
really.
