Re: Free IDOC!
Wow! quite a thread, where should I begin:
Yes, I was camping this house. I used to do a lot of IDOCs, but as I gained more and more wealth, I decided it wasn't worth it to run all over UO, just to find a house that is decaying, and when all is said and done, end up with some chests full of crap. So, I created a rune book titled "Houses I want to fall" and marked runes only to those places with tons of cool stuff locked down and visible. This was one of them. I had no idea who owned it but I have been checking it periodically for quite some time. It finally started to decay, i was rather happy, and now the entire shard knows about it. All my work went down the drain.
No big deal. Butterfly knew about it and decided it was her right to do so. To me, wealth accumulation is a big part of this game. If you take it away by giving all this stuff away for free, that's your right, I guess. Its not like I would have done much at this point to get it other than pick stuff up off the ground, but I have been rather tedious about consistently checking, so it would have been nice to reap some reward for the effort.
As for the other stuff, I just choose to disbelieve anything anyone says about such-and-such "in real life" when it comes to the environment of on-line gaming. I mean really, how many super-model/aerobics instructor/millionaire women and Ninja/actor/doctor-lawyer men actually play these online games? If you listen to what they say, everyone is something like that. Oh, and it was the out-of-the-blue lag that killed them...or some other event on their PC or IRL that made X happen? Please.......
You can chose to believe all, some, or whatever of what people tell you about their real life on here. I chose to believe none (or very, very little), as is my right.
