Also ainwhine its not that he cashed out. Don't care if you got a million for some pixel package either. It's about ruining the fun most people came here for. If you lived off the game and quit I guess I would want a retirement fund too. Scumbags.

Point being that because its a "victimless crime" it doesnt mean there isn't victims. When a gambler spends all of his life savings and destroys his family and childrens college fund, they become victims.

They're only victims if they had a claim on ownership of the money in the first place. If it was all dude's money, then there is no victim. Just a bunch of people who have a shitty father/husband. Don't water down the term "victim" to mean anyone who doesn't get as much as they could have possibly gotten in a perfect world. The word becomes meaningless then.

Why do you assume he doesn't have a job?

I am very comfortable, but if someone offers me 20k I'd be stupid as fuck not to take it. The only difference between him and you is that he made money off his time playing p1999, and you won't.

It would entail what one has to do for the 20k, not just that there is 20k to be made so it's a worth while endeavor. I wouldn't sell drugs to kids or agree to kneecap someone no matter how much money you offered me. Thus, the separation of understanding that is being displayed here.

How the fuck does him selling his plat ruin your fun? And why do you assume he 'lived off the game'?

Go outside. Jesus Christ.

When he gets married and has children, it ceases being his money.

This is pretty basic man stuff. Have some fucking respect for yourself.

are you seriously comparing selling pixels to people who have more money than time to selling drugs to kids and kneecapping people..?

I'll repeat what I said earlier: I challenge any of you white knight shut-ins to print this shit out and show it to someone in real life and explain your rationale for turning down 20k. I'm sure they'll be very moved by your impassioned defense of the classic EQ experience. Please make sure to include this last post, because I think it's the best.

RMT on p1999 = selling drugs to children.

In your mind, self respect entails giving up any notion of personal property in a family environment? How odd. I'm guessing you let your kid have just as much right to use your car as you do?

Though I shouldn't but I will...

Wrong is wrong regardless of its degree and that is why you fail.
