This is what the new rune, the Rune of Superior Boredom, can do to you. Yes that is Pre-Searing Ascalon behind me. <<NOT EDITED>>

Trading... A lot and a lot of trading. Brings up my question: is what I do considered scamming? I have half of pre calling me a scammer and the other half strongly defending me. What do you guys think?

Helped various guildies and somehow worked 3K along the way.. It all shot from there. To avoid another post, it took me 2 months.

Many people pick up black dyes in pre sear for hardly anything.. then u get a few that sell it at the dye trader (post sear) price... stupid really since most people dont have 7k in pre sear.

Or rather, 2k. I commend your hoarding of all those dyes...yet the fact it's a moneymaker just feels wrong.

Zomg haxx...maybe joo finded teh secret pre-searing storage agent?

First of all you need to farm charr a lot to get to level 10.
Second of all, you need a hellovalot more than 2K to buy 118 black dye, EVEN if you're scamming them from newbies in pre-searing.
Thirdly, the exploit to move stuff from post-searing to pre-searing is now fixed, so you needn't pretend you've not got stuff ferried in from post-searing.

But, you've obviously hoodwinked a lot of newbies out of the starting money they could've bought their first post-sear armor for, even though you apparently find it boring, so hooray for you.

Well this is where I prove you wrong. I spent 2 months repeatedly buying and selling dyes. Most people sold me dyes because they wanted the free inventory space and they were happy to get the money. They ALL knew what they were worth. Everyone I've bought from got the same offer as everyone, because I always offered them, not ask, "How much?"

As for the blacks, I've peaked 100k about 6 times after going back down to 50K on each. Over time I bought more blacks because I was running high on cash. If you want proof of my progression, I will be more than happy to post them on ths site. (Various pics.) I paid 5K or more per black, and sometimes my friends gave me a better deal.

Edit - On a side note, I never knew about the exploit untill AFTER it was fixed. I was on during the time, but in all thruth, at the time, my post char only had 50K on her. I was richer in pre than in post. The only exploited items I had were bought from various people and are the runes currently in that black set of armor you see.

You've not farmed, not exploited, and you've paid 5K each for 118 black dye. In pre-sear.

Yeah, sure, whatever floats your boat.

I can see it happening, I met a ranger in pre-searing that was level 14. All he did was trade. Obviously he had farmed a few char to hit 14, but he said he got bored with that and was working on black dyes. He had alot of dye and money lol.

Im with Numa here. Im skeptical. Lemme ask you something here....

IF you have done this for over 2 months, how is it that your character has headgear on? I thought pre had no headgear up until this latest major update (about 2-3days ago)????? Is there a collector now that happens to give headgear now? Because I was just asking around yesterday morning to see if I could get my lvl 8 N/Me a headgear in pre, and everyone said only new characters made AFTER the 3/9/06 update had the headgear available. If there is a collector, could you point the way, so that I won't have to delete this char just to get headgear on a character in Pre?

Edit: Also, if you could post a /age or /deaths (i think those are the commands to bring up the age and deaths of your character) screenshot along with your bar showing your lvl 10 for us? And if you can a screenshot of the runes you have on your armor? This will help make believers out of us non believers.

In reference, the one that said "ALL or none" was me. I was a gambling man about my dyes, and I knew only a handfull of people in pre could actually meet my bet, and I knew who they were. So what I did was I looked out for any black dye scammers and decided to toy with them. It goes like the aforementioned, I placed a bet, and if they couldn't pay them all, they owed me 500 gold. Needless to say that for scammers, I didn't get anything... But no one could buy my dyes... (I had 110+ at the time.)

As for pics along my trails... I have a few I wouldn't mind sharing. They're as I progressed with my black dye #. But unfortunately I went to Post-Searing with that char and cashed in all the blacks, so the char is deleted. I left her with about 400 hours over 2 months.

And as for the headgear thing, they first REMOVED headgear from pre, and only old old pre-searing chars had them. I made Tkob Pre Char BEFORE that nerf. Then they put them back in 2 and a half months later.

Nice seeing you here too Tkob, still going for that 250 Black dye stack? I still prefer my Victo's Axe in Pre over those dyes though.

No, when they put the factions opening graphics they broke the headgear, all chars made before then had hats
