The bet: i have to raise 1 000 000 gw gold in one month
The argument: my brother thinks the community if full of selfish people, i hope to prove him otherwise
The money: it will end up in a massive giveaway to give back to the kind community
any help is appriciated, you can contact me on maximus n
also, how do you think i will fare

note, im not gaining anything from this, its just an experiment to see if the gw community is nice or selfish
im at 16k atm

And why should we care how you think about the GW community?

MSecorsky · Apr 06, 2006, 05:07 PM // 17:07

Why does this feel like those emails I keep getting from Nigerian government officials in exile with millions of dollars they want me to hold for them?

Narrina · Apr 06, 2006, 05:08 PM // 17:08

ofcourse you dont have to, but then it wont be much of a giveaway and we know for sure that the community is just a bunch of selfish assholes

hahaha. You too!?

I reckon it's possible. But dont beg because I hate that. People coming up to me as I stand there in all my shiny armour and fancy weapons and ask for gold!! Pah I say earn it. But then I do give gold away to others who I think deserve it or teach people where and how to farm. I think gold isnt a good judgement of the comunity as its easy to come by. Its time thats the big one. If someone is willing to give you time such as run you a long way for free then its the greatest gift in the world

Why is the community selfish... for not financing your way to being a millionaire? Please. I give away plenty of items at random to folks that need them, and have had people offer the likes to me. I don't need to donate to you're quest for l33tness to improve my views on the community, nor do I have the desire or need to fluff up your opinion.

Wait... in the distance... is that the sound of a thread closing?

I can live with that.
I hate people who beg for artificial (In-game) money, and scammers of all sorts. What you think of me will not effect my gaming experience whatsoever.

Tufty · Apr 06, 2006, 05:15 PM // 17:15

I think your great though lol

I agree with your brother, you are one of the few rare people in the world that is not selfish. Your brother is right for the must part.

Summarized:

"Give me money or your all jerks!!"

Sorry but sounds too much like a scam to me with Factions coming out this month, so it sounds like your just trying to beg in a descrete method. (Half asleep but you get the idea.)

I don't think this is quite the way to earn the trust of the community that would so unselfishly give to you.

Narrina · Apr 06, 2006, 05:22 PM // 17:22

well, ill see you all at the giveaway if you dont feel like donating, i dont mind people who dont donate, its their own choice

Josh · Apr 06, 2006, 05:23 PM // 17:23

Scam, simply put.

More of a, give me money or all your assholes.

Tufty · Apr 06, 2006, 05:25 PM // 17:25

I recently took all my troll tusks I had been saving and gave them to a collector and got lots of nice weapons! I then Gave them all to nice people! You only really need to check the thread about nicest things done in guild wars! The idea of a prize giveaway's nice to give to nice people but the idea of someone being nice for the sake of a prize isnt nice at all

she said it all

Narrina · Apr 06, 2006, 05:28 PM // 17:28

what do you think the prices for the giveaway should be?
its clear that you dont trust me but you can ofc help in other ways

Cyan The Archer · Apr 06, 2006, 05:32 PM // 17:32

Narrine you have only 16k, and is already talking about prices?

Tufty · Apr 06, 2006, 05:32 PM // 17:32

I dunno people arent to keen on this idea. Its a shame really because if you are no scammer (I like to think your not) then this only goes to damage your view of the wonderfull world we live in. But like everyone says who cares what everyone else thinks? I once went on a mission with a monk that let us all die and stole all our drops! That was after begging a couple of hundred gold of all of us! But what can you do
