I can accept Z-keys and Ecto as a form of currency, weapons and minipets however, are not a form of currency.
Ectos, Z-keys etc have a generall value, and everyone buys and sellings fairly close to this, whereas weapons and minipets can vary wildly in value depending on how much the buyer is willing to pay, and how greedy the seller is.

Lol i first think that guy was the noob not you. if said "money" not money,weapons,mini,etc. Second i agree with the value stuff. take for example Sorrow Forge weapons.when it first came out they were worth $$$$ now you can barely sell lots of them. Same for the CoF greens. The same deal applys with minis. only minis aka travellers,4th years and a few greens and golds from other years are still worth anything.

Don't you love it when in movies, (and irl sadly) when someone says, "you can't (or I can) do that, I'm an American Citizen!"

It has no validity in the USA. It comes from the First Amendment to the Constitution which states, in part, "or abridging the freedom of speech". It doesn't come from the Declaration of Independence, which is what Martin was getting at.

Yep, to which I reply, "That's nice. North, Central or South America?"

All I care about is the BNA (British North America Act) and the Bill of Rights.

And, ignoring the factual error, it also doesn't apply on GW by the constitution either. The first part of that amendment is "Congress shall make no law..." Anet isn't congress and the GW servers are private property, so they can make whatever rules they want, restraining any kind of speech they like.

Some random guy said to me about a week ago:

Him: Why are you on my friends list?
Me: No idea, who are you?
Him: Me.
Me: Maybe you added me because we've done a mission together or something.
Him: Did you hack my Guild Wars account and added yourself on my friends list?

.......... lol

The correct answer is "Yes, I did... now give me all your gold and ectos before I delete all your characters..."

By the level of the conversation above I can tell this guy has no ectos :P

Well, you HACKED his account, you should know what he has and doesn't have...

Oh, I'm sorry. Didn't I mention that the guy had nothing of value so I just added myself on his friends list? I was hoping he's prince charming and will ask me out on a date if I do so.

Yesterday I traded a Murakai's Blade for a Destroyer Sword. I was helping a guildie in Consulate Docks HM and a couple of randomers tagged along with us, one of them saw me using it and decided he really wanted one.

"Hey man wanna trade my destroyer for your sword? Yours looks way cool!"
"This sword? Heh, alright"

I have 3 more copies of Murakai's Blade in my stash due to all the CoF runs. That trade was definitely worthwhile. ^_^

Sure, but it takes an advanced education to be aware of that one. Either you'd have to take enough American political science courses to be aware of the distinction and its meaning, or you'd have to attend law school.

What was pathetic was that the kid wasn't aware of something that a properly educated American 8th grade boy should know. I infer gender and age from the content.

You're joking... we covered that in 9th grade Civics, and I ain't that old! (And I'm a computer programmer, not a lawyer. I have scruples, yanno!)
