So don't hand me or anyone else here any BS that you can't make any money for your 15k armor because you don't have time to farm.
Ok so SHOW ME. I have been playing since GW came out. I know how to sell and salvage and all that crap and I don't make all that money.

So maybe you are brilliant and I am a retard. If it's that easy grow some f***ing cojones and log on and show me something that I haven't learned in the years I've been playing.

If anyone has the guts to stop blabbing and log on and show me I promise I will come back on and publicly apologize

[QUOTE=explodemyheart] Some people have more pressing financial issues than to buy gold for a video game, other people that play are teenagers and don't have access to purchasing funds (uh, you know, a credit card?). There's any number of reasons why it is not possible to for one to purchase gold. QUOTE]

Great! Then they can farm and quit worrying about how I get MY money.

Instead of taking all of your time farming your plat maybe you can use that time and save up your REAL money
You sir are unbelieveable. In the words of the people of guru.

GTFO.

I'm not stepping up to the plate because it is not my responsibility to prove anything. Perhaps some day soon I will run a character through EotN and keep a list of every drop I get and how much it sells for, but I most certainly am not going to play the game with someone this unpleasant just to prove what I already know. That is not what I find enjoyable.

For the record, I am not the first person to claim that you can make decent money this way. In fact, a few people have already done experiments and made posts about the results. Search if you like. When my boyfriend is on tomorrow, perhaps I will send him in your direction to tell you of his experiences also. He took his paragon through EotN along with mine, purchased cap sigs regularly, and still came out with 17k when all was said and done.

All talk and NO action.. seriously.. somebody log on and show me.

I actually thought your topic is a good one for discussion, to be honest. However it seems to me that your attitude towards comments lead to the way the thread turn out.

Let me explain to you something very simple: If everyone is rich, then in the end, everything becomes expensive and eventually no one is rich (relatively). So basically, the poorer you are, the richer I am. So if I have a "get rich quick" method, I am very unlikely to share it with you. But then again, most method of getting golds aren't that much of a secret. It just takes some effort to research and some time to practice. You actually don't need much skills to get rich.

In all honesty, this isn't the first thread someone made intentionly into asking the forum community ways to become wealthy in the game, and it certainly won't be the last.

Nonetheless, why do these threads always made in such a manner that's so babaric? For example, insulting Anet or suggesting Anet to sell gold. Even so, the OP usually end up flaming the community or being rude. Wouldn't it be more logical to ask nicely?

That's a GREAT point!! Let's talk about the thousands of players who play this game who *gasp* don't come to this website! Let's take a second to think about all of the players who bought their GW Factions and their GW Factions Official Guidebook and have no idea that there's a way to make money by building a very specific 55 monk build that can solo all of the hi-level areas of the game. What about them?? Oh ya...they all quit and never bought anything from Arenanet again...

Here's the thing. There are games out there where you can spend money and buy in game items. They're called Item Mall games and I would like to direct you here: http://gmtristan.com/the-future-of-m...-or-item-mall/

I think Min Kim from Nexon sums up GW GF's point to a tee.

Just play the game, sell everything you can. I've seen players leave gold on the ground just because it was only 30gp, or they leave items behind because they don't sell at 20+gp. I rarely ever farm and I've got some nice items and runes for my characters.

I think that it does sound like GW just isn't the game for you. I don't know how you spend your money that you don't have enough for some items, but just playing through a campaign or working on your Cartography title can net a good chunk of platinum. Neither of the two takes hours of your time to do, you can take it at a slower pace.

If you want an example, clear out one section of the map yourself.

I think that you ar right and my attitude has been less than good because people have come on and suggested that I'm not a good player and that it just takes a few simple things to make money. It really doesn't and I've been playing for a long time. I'm not stupid, but I do have a temper.. sorry and I do get mad.

I just am making a simple suggestion for anet. I like to play but don't have more than 2 hours a day at most. I don't think that you should have to play any game more than that to have fun and to have top notch equipment.

Anet has a problem, which is people selling gold on ebay. I am solving their problem. 1) you have time and no money, therefore you farm and make money or 2) You have money and no time and buy gold from anet to enjoy the game more

ok someone is pming me now on gw yay!!! brb

The main reason why some people want to buy gold is because they are interested in end game content and end game content only. It's something that was in Diablo, and it's in GW too with it's "pro runner to Droks" scene.

Actually I kinda listened to both side of the arguements before for whether gold buying is good or bad. imo, there isn't anything wrong with gold buying. Some people want to enjoy the game but do not have time to do so (work commitment). And to be honest, farming your boss in real life (and converting that salary into GW gold) is much more effective than any sort of farming in game

It doesn't take coming to this site to learn about the 55 monk build. People talk about it ALL the time in-game. The person that doesn't hear about it or look into it very likely doesn't care about the more expensive gear, they just want to play the game.

But the OP is on this forum so why would that matter? why would we be talking about the *gasp* thousands of other players when my comment was obviously directed at the OP? can you please take Gems advice?
