GM na scum ako! (I should have voted for Ping!)

A new low point in my RO gaming career. As if being a poor blacksmith wasn't bad enough, I got scammed!!! This is by far worse than getting rares looted by a kukre*. That, I understand, is part of the game's design. Kukres eat everything in sight by instinct. Something about being scammed by a fellow player is much more exasperating. It's the fact that it was done with intent and premeditation that gets to me. The thought that there are criminals gamers out there who are out to get their ends by ANY means. It totally defeats the purpose of mmorpg's--to have fun interacting with thousands of other players. Exactly why people stop playing when they get hacked. Oh well, moral of the story is: look at vending prices before clicking buy!! derrr O_o

*Kukre -- agile, non-aggressive ipis of Byalan Underground.

Blacksmith Woes And Joys*

Rave: Snap is now a level 62/30 blacksmith with dagger smithing skillz!
He forged his very first elemental weapon... Snap_Argentum's Iceknife! O_o. Well ok, it's not BS resume material, but it's a start :). And, NO, it's not for sale.

Rant: After one week of 3x drop, he is still dirt poor. Worse even, my thara was looted...via kukre!

*inspired by the same forum thread at the shadowmaidens boards.
