Default What have you lost?

Ok, I just wonder if you guys got some sort of items and/or things of any value you have lost in one way or another. I manged to delete one of my characters without clearing her of items she and her heroes had on them. So I lost a q9 Magmas Shield and my almost perfect Serpentine Reaver, along with some perfect firewands and staffs for my ele.

I just hope I could get a good feeling by hearing what you guys have lost over the past 4,5 years GW have existed. Heard one who lost 12 kuunavangs when his account got hacked. Can any top that (ofc you can (: ).

Sorry for bad English, I'm from Norway and never got good grades in English

i sell all my high end stuff for cheap cause i'm impatient.

sold a q8 +5e gothic dual for like 120e when i could have gotten 230 for it easily

sold a q7 15^50 longsword for 1250e when i could have gotten 1500 if i would've had some patience

i've never been scammed or hacked in 4 years of playing gw, so as far as wealth goes i'd have to say my biggest losses are due to me not caring and being a bit impatient.

Some sad sad stories here...

Back when GW had 1st come out I was playing throught he campaign for the 1st time and got a gold Q7 15^50 I kept it for quite a while only to sell it to the merchant one horrible night. Sleep is a wonderful thing, being sleepy is not so great. :*(

Rerolled a Henge sword back when that meant something.

Drinking and GWing is bad, kids. But repeatedly violating conduct rules is clearly dumber (*cough* Lena *cough*).

Oh!! I almost forgot!! They also banned my iP address after the perma'd me and blocked my credit card. ^^

I didn't manage to get a screen of them blocking my credit card but I DO have one of it showing my iP blocked.


Enjoy.

Let me clarify. A LOT of my "infractions" were for small things. "Spamming". "Inappropriate language" (told someone to let go of Starcraft Forever's balls 'cause they were flamming him when he first got r15), ect. All minor, tbh. Not a single one of my suspensions were EVER for scamming, racial slur, or any of the really bad things that should be an auto 2-weeker.

Lots of my time.

Also a lot of gold; I have a habit of salvaging elite armour for fun.
