Sounds like the best policy then. If the agreement is universal that this is one of our few good tools for fighting RMT, then I'll abandon my slant.

Bullfuckingshit asstard, I could ask a million plat for a master... would make me an idiot for asking for that much, but it would be the bigger idiot that paid that much for it. Nobody is getting cheated when a seller asks a price and a buyer willingly agrees to it, both people assign a value and if both agree to the value, its a fair trade... might not be worth it in your eyes, but willing seller + willing buyer + agreed upon price = square deal.

What Cochy did was downright shady and no amount of calling the seller a plat farmer justifies it. How many masters out there are being sold by plat farmers right now anyway? The masters I've seen for sale are by and large from established players I know or their trade toons. Masters are few and far between, arguably as they should be according to many people. These aren't the days of botters sitting on scores of master spells. Hell on Nek there are TWO T8 fury masters up for sale... TWO!

Make no mistake, the seller cheated nobody. You might think it is gouging, but you aren't forced to pay it, and anybody who agrees to buy it at an inflated price obviously feels it is worth it. And 100p is not too much for certain masters at this point, not by a long shot.

thanks for telling us

That is cheap, Fair enough. Just wanted to know all the facts about that as price gouging was brought up as a defence.

You're an idiot. I love how mad you got, though. Point is, the seller was trying to rip someone off, despite possibly being a plat farmer/bot. Cochy did what Cochy did, and there isn't much else to do but bitch. I don't feel bad for the idiot that this happened to at all, unless it IS a real, honest dipshit, then I'd say Cochy ought to mail what the master is really worth, not that 100p bullshit.

And who gets to determine what it is worth? YOU Stalin?

Laodaron

Hahahah I'm Stalin? Hmm I know what Godwin's Law is, but I'm not familiar with the Stalin comparisons.....we'll call it a Lao's Law.

Lao's Law - When an asshat decides you've made an incorrect statement about the economy of a video game that the person is apparently overly passionate about, the asshat in question compares you to the late Communist leader of the Soviet Union.

Jesus you're an idiot. Yes, I get to choose what they're worth. I get to say whatever the fuck I want. Guess what? No amount of your panties being wedged up your ass reverses what happened, so I guess the master is actually worth nothing, cause the tard who got owned got nothing in return for it. There. Happy?

And you have no integrity... you have to live with that, I don't. You get to decide what you are willing to pay, that doesn't oblige the seller to give it to you for that price. If that is the case, let me know the next time you have a master or rare for sale... I'll decide its worth a copper and you give it to me for that.

You do understand that cochy agreed to a price, he agreed to buy it for 100p, he then used fraud to STEAL the spell. No other way to describe it. A level 80 geared out assassin from Disso is going to tear apart anybody in a duel, except many a few of his guildmates. He pulled a shitty con, showed he has no morals and no class, zero integrity.

Yeah, its just a game... but a person who can't act with integrity in a game when nothing real is at stake, well... they sure as can't be trusted to be honorable when something important is on the line. The fact that you defend it speaks equally poorly of you.

lol @ the 2 noobs arguing
