When I was 14, my dad took me to the local game stop, so I could buy the new Starwars MMO game. The employees said to me that they had a local guild with primarily players from my area. I was kind of interested, and started asking them about the game, and then they said it was a farming guild, in which players would farm for hours and hours, so the higher leveled players (them) could get more money. My dad came over to me and said, "You can farm for free IRL, instead of paying $60 to do it in a virtual world for other people."

I ended up sadly leaving the store, realizing that it was the first time I had ever had a guy try to pimp me out. I have never been back to game stop since, and I was curious if anyone else has ever had a similar story to this, or has done something like this?

So in D2, long time ago, when 1.09 Ith 'hacked ' items were rampant, but also expensive, this guy who runs a online d2 store gave me and my friend a job. A leveling job for a bunch of characters and we got rewarded with expensive ith items and other valuable duped items. I guess that kinda counts as this

Used to have characters full of stuff like Armageddon fletches and Soul spurs. If only I knew how valuable they would become months later....

Star Wars Galaxies, not SWTOR. It was a much better game, too.

Have any of you taken part in some form of cyber bullying, in which most people wouldn't really consider it cyber bullying? I feel kind of bad about this, but when I first started playing Broodwar, Pokemon was still kind of hot. I had this friend in my clan who I played UMS with a lot. He was from Philly, and was a christian extremist. He didn't believe in Pokemon, because of the evolution, and would get really mad at me for playing it. I told him that I quit the game, and that I was really happy that he was looking out for me. I asked him if he thought I would go to heaven, and he said, "I think so." I told him good, because I really want to see him there. He asked me if I wanted to be his girl friend, so I was like yes! He got really happy, and truly did love me, but he didn't know that I had another boyfriend from Texas on Broodwar.

I ended up pressuring both of them into believing that I thought they were cheating on me. I ended up requiring them to write a long detailed diary about their days, and I said that I would write one about my day too, so it would be special for if we ever got married.

The Texas guy wrote about how much he could lift, and his position on the football team, and how all the girls would talk about how hot he was. The guy from Philly would draw out the maps he was making for UMS, and would tell me about his special "I love you! <3" code. He ended up writing over 100 pages in a notebook just about UMS map creation, and micro/macro builds (He improved significantly over this time too). The football player guy only wrote about 20 pages, but it was over just 15 days. I thought the guy from Philly was joking about writing that much.

When I received the notebooks from the 2 guys, I ended up mailing the two guys each others notebook. The really religious guy was extremely impressed by how much he thought I worked out, and how fast and strong I was. Then from other clan members, they started telling me that this guy was talking a ton about me, and that they were curious if I could really squat 400 lbs. I was like yeah, I do it everyday. I had no clue what I could squat, probably because I had never lifted weights in my life.

This caused a lot of drama, in which one guy called me a liar, and then the guy from Philly ended up cursing at him, which was the only time I had ever seen him curse on the game, or talk in all caps. Then they showed him on youtube, that if i could really squat that much, then I would be like a professional, and he asked me why I lied. I said I meant 40 lbs, but then he asked me if I could really bench 300 lbs. I was like yeah why? That's when he found out I had been lying to him, and I had to go in front of this clan trial thing for lying like that.

I ended up telling the story about how I switched the notebooks, and that he actually had a crush with the guy from Texas. He ended up sending me a picture of him crying, and it really broke my heart. I felt so bad for lying to him.
