Applied to our linkshell, claims to have been an Elvaan with 75 RNG, SAM, PLD, NIN, BST, THF in Benevolentia linkshell. Anyone ever heard of this guy?

[Asha]

yes, a long time ago he was in bene. he got tired of the game and quit. he came back a few months ago with a new account begging for gil donations and PL help. before getting to lvl 10, he would delete whatever progress he had made for being tired of the race or some other stupid reason. after a couple months of him constantly asking for gil and PL help, there was a large strain on the friendship. after this happening multiple times, he started just buying and selling toons trying to find a job/race that he could live with. he got angry that we werent giving him gil enough to get started again, (and again and again), tried multiple guilt trips, etc. the final straw was him asking me to buy gil for him since IGE wont take credit cards from whichever country he was in at that time. wish i had SSd that, but after calling him out, he 'faked' his death via his GF supposedly using his toon to finish getting his smn to 75, since that was something he wanted so badly. rather funny how he also failed to mention his original toon name and that this was actually a bought account.

Thanks Asha, much appreciated.

Anyone else know anything about this guy?

I don't know if this will help you but when I saw that name I remembered a thread on KI (yeah yeah probably not the best source) about him. Hope this helps.

Bump for more information. I've been talking to the guy, and here's what I can figure out regarding his characters.

He says that he started on a character named Hernan at PC release. Hernan was an Elvaan. After a few years of playing, he was given the account of Blackartofwar, which he played as a mule. When server transfers came out, he deleted Hernan to "avoid bad memories" and transferred Blackartofwar to Lakshmi, renaming him Hernan in the process. The character he claims to be Blackartofwar is a Taru 75SMN with several other jobs at or above 60.

Any confirmation of that or other info about him would be great.

I remember Hernan as a first job Elvaan PLD. I leveled my first job alongside his, not in a static but just bc we were the same level while "growing up." I dont remember much about him, but this may help jog others memories who were leveling jobs while I was leveling BRD early 2004

Blackartofwar was in my previous linkshell, he barely ever showed up to LS events. When asked why he wasn't attending he frequently used the excuse "it's his brother playing". Oh and i think it's already been mentioned in this thread already but yes he did steal an Osode from a fellow linkshell member.

Given that the character seems to have changed hands at least once, do you have a time frame for when this stuff happened?

'hernan' has been deleted for months. he did not own blackart and hernan at the same time. calling black art a mule is a lie. black art was a lvl 62 smn i think when he bought the account. he has had that account for the last few months. im sorry but buying gil and suppporting one of the main things that has made aspects of this game suck.. is not a title one of my 'friends' is going to carry. he can talk a good game, at one point in time he was a very skilled player. if you chose to adopt him to your shell despite what has been said here by not just me.. good luck to you.

Hmm maybe about 1 and a half months ago? He was removed from the linkshell shortly after refusing to give the Osode back. If you accept him GL to you.
