For those of you bored with too many crowns on hand...

Liven up your day by making other people donate THEIR crowns to random strangers!

Last night I was shopping for some materials after realizing that a solid month of no play time meant that my 2 cutters a day ran me out of Monster Bones.

There was a short time remaining on a Monster Bone for like 5 crowns, so I decided to see if I could snag a nice cheap item. Popped my bid in and did some homework on another screen while checking chat to see when I get outbid.

After a few minutes, someone outbids me, so I outbid them and go back to homework. Repeat again 10 minutes later, and again some minutes after that.

After a few lengthy periods of no competition, I finally get a "live one" who is spam-countering my bids. We back-and-forth for a few minutes, creeping the price up 1-3 crowns at a time.

But then I notice that sometimes he outbids himself (my new bid is 3 higher than old one instead of 2 higher)!

So I decided to have some fun, at exceptional personal risk, and I raise his last bid from something like 63 crowns to 6,000 crowns.

Sure enough, instantly outbid!

Plenty of fun for me, and I am sure that the person who sold that Monster Bone is very confused, but incredibly happy.

And to those of you who aren't bored enough to be malicious... be careful when spam-clicking in the Auction Hall. :D

Great deeds

yup. Quite a long while ago , I tested my fov on training hall. There was this newbie with zero star gears, first started out asking me to help him.we hitted of quote well . I won't says beg since it's kinda yea not a good word to use on him. So I just crafted a wolver set and a jelly shield for him. One of the cap had a med uv fire resists, anyway I just give it to him. We added as frens but we never really cross each other path due to the gap we had . After a few weeks , we ran each into each other at a Gate. His vog full set now with medium uv fire resists I crafted for him a few weeks back. He rem me and still thanks me. Thru I never got back anything from him, which I never intends do, it's sastifing to do something good. I believe if I need any extra help , he wi be there for me too! Of course I can't help every player since I have limited realizes too.

Good deeds...

Some people indeed can be kind to other players.

The day after I started playing, I was just standing at the AH, looking for some cheap equipment and stuff. And suddenly, I got a whisper from another player. He asked me if I wanted a free helmet.
I said: "It'd be awesome!" and so he sent me a trade and gave me Magic Hood for free. I was realy happy, but a short moment later, that same player said: "Wait, I got something" and gave me Magic Cloak, also for free.
I thanked him like thousand times, he just said he wants me to have fun with this new equipment.

That realy - REALY - made my day!

I was talking to this guy one

I was talking to this guy one time who was new to the game and didn't know what to do, so I said you have to do some runs blah blah but he didn't have enough ce to do so, so I said I will make the Wolver set that he wanted to buy, so I made it for him, funny enough it was UV'd but even better it was Fire resistant high and the other was Normal defence high, I still gave them to him, though he has never been online since and wish I could have them back :(

People do know that every time you bid on something the auction time gets prolonged, don't they?
