Wow, the dumb level of this thread has jumped through the roof since i last read it.

*shrug* I for one got bored of Vooodu urinating all over this thread like a poodle at a fire hydrant. So I decided to do something about it. If your cup of tea is instead to just seagull on by with a (not terribly impressive) rant, then that's your business. Me, I'm fighting the good fight.

At this point you are making voodoo seem like a Genius. But carry on figthing what ever fight you think you seem to be fighting. If your fight is to be the biggest dumbass in this thread i think you have already won by a landslide.

BTW i reported you for trolling. Which is infact what you are doing. Am i sure, by judging how voodoo posts hes enjoying every second of it.

you sir, must be (edited) not smart at all.

but at the same time gear wasn't worthless.. I sold an axe online for $165 because it was so OP for whirlwind.

This only proves that there are at least 2 morons on the internet: You and whoever paid you $165 for a fucking axe.

people have paid much more, for much less.

sold my uo accounts around that time for $300.

I was a kid.. played the games.. sold them and profitted.. not sure how exactly making 165 dollars off a digital item years before it was popular to do makes me an idiot.

How is he a moron for selling pixels for money?

You do know how much the first Arkaine's valor / windforce / Harlequin Crest / ETC sold for in D2:LOD? I can't argue that the people purchasing the stuff are silly for doing so, but saying someone is a moron for selling them is pretty asinine.

Not at all. Firstly because people like him make any/all online games Pay-to-Win in some sense. Secondly because there's no secure method to make any of these transactions. Finally because he may have exposed himself to liability when doing these things, since pretty much every EULA or TOS explicitly notes these things as having no cash value/being owned by the people who run the game.

Well, when D2:LOD came out it was perfectly legit to sell these items on EBAY! Which was pretty secure. I never had any issues with it. I assume you were not old enough to have an ebay account when LOD came out though.

BTW the first Windforce was around $1500 on EBAY

Oh, common. His post was not even directed at you. It was directed at XAAYZYOOGABBAGAABAA.

Besides, how is what he posted not smart? Because you didn't like what he posted.

Seeesh, lighten up.

This, from the character named "Vooodu"? I'm honored.

Dance, monkey, dance! Go, Vooodu, go! The more you post, the closer we come!

Beyond your freaky monkey festish dance dream you keep having. Who is 'we' exactly and "what" is getting closer?

Just wondering...


Anyways, heres a video for you. Maybe instead of dancing monkeys you would prefer some fine dancing females instead.

Or mabye you would prefer the dude at the end.... We all know how you feel about options, so swinging both ways is just a big ol' PLUS in your books.

Seems like Xaxyx fled for now, he probably needs a break because its too hard on him to keep dancing.

Why, to a proper loot system, of course. Your antics have done more for our cause than even the most loquacious of speeches, by demonstrating repeatedly for the devs the type of personality seeking to defend the status quo. Thanks for asking, again, so I can explain, again! Will this be a regular, daily thing? I surely do hope so.

Oooh, a sexuality joke, too! Such a delightful bonus. Keep at it! Dance, monkey, dance! Go, Vooodu, go!

Was that a "wise crack"? Hmm... no, not really.
