So uh... my friend lagged out right after Skadi body 35 dropped. He happened to be tossing random gear cells at the time. He reddot'd while doing so and came back to that. D: He swears he sorted inventory before dropping anything and had only tossed items before the 35 had sorted to him.
<_< How do you mess that up. There's a window that pops up that says ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO!? It's like an extra window lol
well as i understand it, it was in the treasure pool with he started dcing. He then throws away a cell. His connection r0'd then he came back from it and got the "you toss a Freya's jerkin" message. Pretty sure he wouldn't lie about it to save face or something, so no idea how it happened![]()
The same way people bid 3M for a 300k item on the AH
No, the 2nd confirm message that appears when dropping ra/ex stuff never appeared. I dropped the same Incus cell 2 times by how my screen showed. The lag I got from R0 kicked back and I saw that message. Item restore go
edit: In addition to never seeing the 2nd confirm message, when I r0'd, Freya's Jerkin was still in the treasure pool. by what I saw on my screen, there was no possible way I could have dropped it. and yet, when briefly flashed back into the game before being fully disconnected, that is the message I saw.
Ouch, that's something i always fear after getting item drop...![]()
That's brutal but your sig is made of win.
Item restore got it back to me within 8 hours, at least. gogo 15mil
I had a friend named who was leveling a hume pld, and got sick of it so decided to level his female tarutaru cooking mule, Euriko. He told me his RL name was Dave, and the e-mail he gave me when he left was something like xdavex13@gmail or something like that, so I'm pretty sure he was a guy (first character was male also, for what its worth). Eventually, he leveled Euriko to have 75 smn, blm and rdm and went on to join some of Garuda's longest running HNMLSes, Stellvia and Stealth_Vertigo.
By the time ToAU had come out, Euri was long gone. I got a merit party invite and there was a Stellvia or SV member in my party (don't recall which). I told him I had a friend named Euriko who used to be in that LS, and he started telling me how cool of a chick Euri was. I tried telling him that I'd known Euri for years and that it was a dude, but he would have nothing of it. Told me how Euri posted pics of "herself" on their website as an attractive asian female. I argued with the guy about it for a good 30 minutes but he wouldn't believe me. Guess he didn't want to believe that this guy pretended to be a girl to get good drops so his character would be worth more when he sold it. Denial is funny.
several years ago i had a guy give my character stuff like chocolates and roses even after i told him i was a guy playing a mithra. he said something like "i know, but your character is so hot."
was a bit weird.
Well played.
