I would like some creative suggestions for giving all my gold and junk away..

something like a lottery, or some game or something.. since I dont really have anyone in mind that I would even leave so much with(20+mil in gold and 7-8 5 stats, among other stuff).. or maybe ill just delete it? lol i dunno.. give me some ideas.. and preferably something that doesnt give rich people an unfair advantage.

bye~

There are a few clans that I'd say are worthy of a good contribution :P

However, if you delete it, no harm would be done to the overall game economy.

Dracoden, from what I've seen of people who have tried similar things in the past, you're likely to end up with both (a) a bunch of people begging you for things that they haven't earned and (b) complaining that no matter what you choose to do that it was not fair.

If you're willing to put up with this, I'd suggest that you reward the kind of playing that you enjoyed. I didn't know you really when you were playing, but think about the kind of playing style that you would like to reward. Would a tournament of some type find those people, or a trivia contest?

I like the idea Onlyme gave me 2 weeks ago on what to do with mine when I'm ready to do something with it. Would go something like this...


clan chat: You just dropped $$$$$ gold.

friend chat: You just dropped $$$$$$ gold.

--------

clan chat: You destroyed $$$$$$ gold.

friend chat: You destroyed $$$$$$ gold.

--------

Character Deleted

Dunno if I'll do it yet, but it's mighty tempting

Scavenger hunt. Contact Amy ingame. She has some awesome ideas how to run an event such as this. One in which the person giving can have as much fun and the ones recieving.

Give it to someone not so fortunate, like me, with only 1 5stats in his account and a whopping 10k total in gold :P

i say delete it or don't give it away at all. cuz nobody deserved it.

otherise:

put small amounts like 200k on a low level thief, drag the this to some area and have a monster kill it. the person that kills the monster gets lucky and gets the 200k. this way nobody would get extrmely rich and it wouldn't screw up things so much. (just got to get your crit killed 200 times in different locations :P)

Keep it all together in one account and uninstall nightmist . . . let your account go inactive that way if you ever decide you want to play again (and 90% of people do eventually) then you'll have a nice chunk of gold/crits to play with . . .

Other than that Jurians idea is decent

There are still a lot of good people on this game, whatever your choice make sure an arsehole who spoils it for so many people does not get it.
I wouldn't mind stabbing you in the face, if that's cool with you?

yeah i agree with thunderja and despair. i say don't give it away and if you do make sure it doesn't make someone really strong so he can screw up everything.

/nod, for two reasons:

1: should you wish to return
2: doesnt give your work to someone else, who is most likely undeserving

Hank, keep it. You and Kat earned it.. no one deserves the hard work you both did put into the game. You never know when you might come back.. which is highly unlikely.
When you do something right nobody remembers, but when you do something wrong nobody forgets.

Let Kat have it...or let her build a huge CH with it and make nice descs like she had in the CH she'd made a while back.
I assume that much of the stuff sold to gain the gold was also her's since you guys shared and stuff?

If not, I agree with Jimmy and Kev, put it in an account and let it sit incase you come back from FF or simply delete it. It isn't someone else's to claim and it is annoying to have some idiot running around saying he's good or whatever simply because he was given a lot of gold.

Dracoden, You did work hard for what you have. Do not let anyone decide what you want to do with it but what feels best for you.

If you do wish to hold a quest/scavenger hunt/rp event for any of your items I would be happy to help you with it.

If you are unsure if you want to play again or not.. let your crits go inactive.
(if you want certain names make sure you let someone know so they can save the names for you).

If you just need a break, I would be willing to keep your crits active if you wished or anyone else you trust am sure would be willing.

Regardless, as i said to start with, do what is best for you. That is what matters.

Sincerely,
Amy of Draco
