This will be interesting. Especially with all the whining in "how are you supposed to make money?" thread.

Don't post an amount without a SS.
This is going to be fun.

Edit: SS = Screenshot

I hope you realise no one will have over 1 million (or 2 with a 2nd account etc.) because it's the max you can have. If they add characters, then 1.4mill. This is stupid.

when u reach a milllion mark, u start counting ectos/shard/sapphires/rubies and other expensive stackables. BTW i wonder who would actually post their ss... considerign that they probably be bombed with pms and beggings.

Lady Cream · Jan 05, 2006, 09:52 AM // 09:52

basically someone who :
- exploited old farming
- exploited newbs to buy low sell high all the day
- exploited the price reset
- exploited ebay
- exploited xxx
- exploited yyy

"Richest" people are people who exploited the game in a way or another.

This is an easy problem to get around.

Step 1: Make a new character

Step 2: Leave Presearing with your new character

Step 3: Transfer the majority of your weath onto the new character for screenshot display

Step 4: After screenshot has been taken, Transfer wealth back to where it was.

Step 5: Delete the character in the screenshot.

Not necessarly exploited the game, but people who exploited other players fit this category too.

:On that note, Rich people in RL exploited the world. They hack and are horrible people! Wanting FOW armor is a sin

and if you want it but don't want to spend 10000000 hours getting a million gold from 8 person parties I guess you have to stop playing:

:- ( he's just trying to see a few stacks of ecto cut him some slack.

The undead Mesmer · Jan 05, 2006, 10:41 AM // 10:41

I am rich i got 5 sets of 15k armor that says enough of how rich i am

Na j/k i do have that but im kinda now to say it POOOoOOR!!!!
Being rich is something lots of people argue about whats rich? haveing 1mil on your storage? having FoW armor and 1mil? most of the time you used Ebay for that. Others say that they are rich with 100k on the storage i agree more with that because you can buy the most of the things for 100k >.< still a lot but 100k is a good starting fund if you look at it.

Hmmm something is missing but i forgot what it whas il be silent for now

fenix · Jan 05, 2006, 11:04 AM // 11:04

The richest will be item collectors, with all the 15>50 Crystallines and such. Hands down. That and the odd 15% no condition ones that are floating around, they beat any number of ecto :P

Alberic · Jan 05, 2006, 11:13 AM // 11:13

My toon drives a Dodge Stratus. I win!

Lost · Jan 05, 2006, 12:21 PM // 12:21

No screenshots here. Everyone must be poor.

Willy Rockwell · Jan 05, 2006, 12:42 PM // 12:42

For sixty bucks real money I could claim the prize. It's called EBay and requires no skill.

Xenrath · Jan 05, 2006, 12:46 PM // 12:46

I think there was some statistic floating around, apparently the majority of accounts have less than 20k. I'm sure a search would find results.

Sekkira · Jan 05, 2006, 12:52 PM // 12:52

Too much to bother with the screenshots. I only have 15k in storage, however I also have two perfect and almost perfect vampiric eternal bows of fortitude (req 9 15 in a stance and 14>50), one close to perfect, two perfect zealous short bows of defense (one req 10, other req 9), one perfect poisoners storm bow of defense (req 9 15>50 I got rid of the chaddy 10/10 sundering and +30 fortitude), a perfect vampiric cleaver of defense (req 9 15>50).

I also have three sets of armour for my ranger, one with minors, one with majors, superiors in the headgears and a 15k set full of superior vigors so I can mix and match to be completely flexible. A few rubies and sapphires and 83 shards.

I wouldn't say I'm the richest, but I know I am pretty damn wealthy to be able to afford all that junk.

Ruvaen · Jan 05, 2006, 01:00 PM // 13:00

I hit the gold limit for my account a while back and realized that I am still very poor compared to those who trade the higher end items. =X This is a difficult title to claim due to the subjective nature of the item values.

Keyote · Jan 05, 2006, 01:05 PM // 13:05

Aside from people who exploited earlier on in the game, runners can easily make a million.

I've probably spent around 700k on my chars and I have 170k in storage. I've never done any serious farming or running, it's just come from selling things and making sure I always keep the money I have in storage going up instead of draining it.
