I really dont deserve it..although I woudl REALLY want to have it.

This is the most probable breakdown of how Im gonna spend my money:

I will probably give about 150k to my guildies, just split it among them, or donate it so that it can be used as contest rewards.
I might give about 50-100k to newbs in shing jea/ascalon, but I make sure that the person Im giving it to isnt some snot faced teenager whos only purpose is to ruin other people's gaming experience.
The rest I will probably spend on myself and a couple of real life friends I know.

Yes I know I dont deserve it, but heck I would really like to have it......

sad to see you leave

but it's a nice gesture alright

don't need anything though (ok, i could use that superior vigor, but whatever). Handing it out to guildless players in the low level areas would be a nice idea :P

Please help me kind sir.

I have seven kids to feed in Ascalon. I have to feed them boiled charr hides and some nights they go to bed hungry. If only I had the gold I could care for them properly. Every night at the dinner table we would say thanks to you for the wonderful food and I would give a toast with my dwarven ale to the benefactor that helped my family so much. I would also be able to purchase a boat pass for my parents to come to Lions Arch. They live in Cantha but want to move back because of Shiro's foreign policies. He seems to have about a 15% approval rating in that country.

Anything would help.

I personally think that you should not give it all away, or even give it all to one person. Definitely keep a large sum for yourself in case you come back, a useful amount, like 100k, its all you really need unless you want to come back and start buying FoW sets.

Give chunks of money to people who want it quite a lot and seem deserving. For example, I have been trying to get 15k armor for my ritualist since factions came out, earning the money just seems to have come quite slowly, and now as I have most of the materials, but I am 10k short of the cash needed, a Little injection of 5k, would put me so much closer and help me seal the deal.

No one really deserves all of your money, but there may be some people who it is worth sharing it with.

Take me, I have eight kids to feed maaaaan I can't believe you busted up my taxi maaan, I got seven kids to feed!

If im not worth giving it to thats cool because it means someone more lucky will get it and deserves it way more than myself.. either way Im not gonna pass up the opportunity as the most Ive ever had to my name is 100k and that quickly diminishes when my friends needed things.
Why play an MMO then, farming is a part of every rpg.

I have never farmed in my life on any of five pve characters (well, once I tried soloing with my warrior but became bored within a few minutes). I have gained all of my money through missions, quests, and lucky drops. After spending money to buy max armor for my characters, I am left with very little money in the bank. Sadly, with the factions system of buying skills, I do not have the money to buy many of the 300 new skills provided in factions, leaving me at a rather large disadvantage in pvp. I have vowed not to get into any serious pvp until I have all of the factions skills unlocked. However, this is proving extremely slow going with my short supply of money and little patience for repetition. I would appreciate any money that could help me on my way to unlocking skills so that I can continue to pvp.

If I had that money, I would first buy two superior vigors. One for my ranger, and one for my assasin. My necro doesn't really need a superior. Then I would buy a Beast Master mask with a superior beast mastery rune for my ranger, because I feel like giving my wolf Mr. Fluffles some more attention. Next, I would buy 15k exotic gloves for my assasin, because those huge blades look sweet. I like the rest of my assasins look, so I wouldn't buy the rest of the 15k set, and my ranger already has 15k druids. I need a new flatbow for my ranger, since his is +14% vs hexed foes, so I'd probably get the collectors items, and then set out on an adventure to find a collector with a flatbow that has +15% while health is over 50%. I would just save the rest of it for when I need to spend some extra money here or there, like when my identification and salvage kits run out. I will most likely get chapter 3 so I would use some of the money to fund a character with one of the new classes. I don't think I would go out of my way to give a ton of money to low level people, because most of them already have money from previous characters, and a lot of them don't appreciate the nice gesture. If I do come across a new player who needs a little extra cash, I wouldn't hesitate to give them 500g or something to help them out, if they are a nice person. If my friends need some money I could help them out too, but most of them have like ten times the amount of money I do.

Just to bring the quiting the game posts to an end, there is a good chance I might still PVP and gvg but items and missions I am completley done with, salvaging my fissure is probaly a kick in the a$$ for some of you and dont say what I should of done with it because Ive heard enough of it already but Ill give it a few more days for anyone else to add anything before I decide what Ill do, I will give it away but in a whole or in parts is the question.

Im a pretty selfless person, i bought a 100k trader for a guild im no longer even a part of for their guild hall, i give people dye and mats for armors, and i've even given into those beggars a few times >_>. I have around 700g to my name right now, i really could use that money, which i would share with guildmates, like i usually do

Actually, I really think I deserve it now. Today, when going to delete my pvp character, my dad was talking to me so I wasn't paying attention, and I accidentally deleted my main character, my ranger named David Lionmaster... There goes 1 year of work, along with all the fun items I got such as my santa hat and my tengu mask . There goes my 15k druids armor dyed silver . So I guess the only thing I can do is start him over again. I am really mad at myself now...


Edit: I wouldn't need all the money, I just need about 50k to get my character as close as I can to my old one.

I have about 360k and a superior vigor and some weapons. To win this you must tell me why you believe you want/deserve it. I will check and read all the posts in a week and make my decision.

I may just give the account away but we will see about that.
After reading this post. It made me cry, in joy. What I say you do with the money(don't get my wrong, it's your money do what you want with it) Go to like Ascalon City international 1, LA international 1, or forge international 1 and just spam "Giving away 1 free item to everyone who opens trade with me." and just give it away like that, after you give that stuff away give like 2k instead of items. Not only would you be helping people out that you do not even know(which is a good feeling, I used to do it when I considered myself "wealthy"). You will also, if you believe in this stuff, have "God" look down on you for your good deeds.

Or if you believe that I am a good person for giving you these ideas, feel free to give me anything from a simple thank you to some of that loot you were talking about before.

Anyways, have fun with whatever decision you make. And have fun with life without GW. I know I would be sad without it.
Thank you for reading.

I say salvage your FoW armor, because it is yours. Go outside, salvage every single piece. Get a Screenshot of it. Post in back in here or the Image Forum thingy. I would LAUGH.

I would love that money, I'm sure everyone would and is probably drooling for it if they've already posted it here. If I got it I'd give more than half (about 90plats more to this side) to my friend, as he's been pulled away from his comp and has had far less time to do GW. We've both had rather bad luck with drops, only making our money from selling stuff we find. That's my 2cents, although if it were me I'd keep it. Ch.3 is coming, and while pvp is always fun PvE has had quite a few new elements with factions, and I have no doubt Ch.3 will be the same. Your choice man. That or pull a lottery. Btw that's a hawt avatar =3

My wife left me for a younger, richer and more attractive man. On my way to work yesterday I recieved a call on my cellphone from her laywer stating that she has rights to half my net earnings in the past 10 years, my house, my car and my new pair of jeans. I was so distracted by the call that I rear-ended the guy in the Rolls Royce in front of me. It turns out my car insurance had expired two days ago, and I had to pay full damages to the guy, totalling at around $10000, as well as a $985 fine to the police for a number of infractions that I can't list here for the sake of brevity. The hold-up caused me to miss my meeting at work, after which I promptly recieved a call from my boss stating that I was fired effective immediately. Traffic got so bad that I could not pick up my kids from school on time, resulting in yet another pleasant call from my wife's lawyers stating that I no longer had shared custody of the children. Upon getting back home to pack my stuff, most of which I found laying outside the door next to the garbage can, I logged onto Guilds Wars to find out that my account had been hacked into and all my characters/items deleted. Upon hearing about this, my guild decided to kick me out, stating I was of no more use to them. After dragging all my things to the Best Western Hotel nearby, just as I plugged in my laptop to relieve some tension by playing Guild Wars, lightning struck the building, frying my $2000 laptop and silk sheets that were a gift from my grandma, and causing second-degree burns to my legs and lower torso. After getting out of the emergency room, I stopped by Best Buy to pick up a cheap $500 PC. Now I'm sitting here in a motel (definitely not another Best Western) with some shoes, an old pair of jeans, an empty GW account and the IRS knocking at my door.

I think I could use a break

give it to the new guildies youre guild recruit?

if not some people on youre friends list,

dont go to ascalon or shing jea due to the fact that either

A) 2nd account

B) bein as scammers they are would just say on i got nothin im lvl BLABLABLA

C) donate it too your'e guild, (what i would do) my guild, and previous guild basically have tought me how to play the game successfully and i got the knowledge now that helps me make money, so as a thank you present to them i would donate a certain amount of money to each of the members, (or people in the guild that helped you)

i got two accounts and find ways to get the best armour and weapons for my toons, so instead of saying u want this give me a reason, just help people or guildies

I don't deserve the money but I would like it.

I've joined my friends guild to do alliance battles in order to get money for my own guild to get a GuildHall. The others of my guild cannot help me out because they are lowlevel and do not know much about the game yet.

I've been trying very hard to get enough money and been putting it in my guild. I had to sell some weapons that I got in stock for my characters.. because well money is money.

Though I am sure that there are others out there that maybe deserve this better then I would.. I am still posting in the hope you could consider this.

Thank you,

free gold sound good but you should think about that what if you come back later on and have no equipments to start off with. I know that Guild Wars is getting to the state of boringness but take a break and come back later then you might enjoy the game again. I know that there isn't much within the game and that nothing have changed since the introduction of chapter 2. With the exception of most bosses dropping greens for you, elite missions, alliance battle and some what decent storyline.

If this can't stop you from leaving, you might as well give the gold to those who are in need. It is funny how all the new changes in chapter 2 doesn't bring the same fun factor from original GW.

Hell, i have more fun with 12k in my account for all 6 characters than it is to have 100k and nothing to spend for. I have 6 PvE toons and have about combined total of 15k. Although monk armors are expensive to get and with raising cost of materials, getting any type of armors is expensive. Maybe I deserve this 360k or maybe not... it up to SteveO to decide. I believe that money doesn't buy you happiness, it just make you look more badass than before. If this isn't true than tell me what the hell you spend those 100k for! Skills? Feed the poors? nope, you use it to buy everything and anything you want.

I think you should keep the gold and account and wait it out. Maybe when Chapter 3 arrives, it might spark your interest in Guild Wars.

This results in a rather "nooby" section of the guild. Many people beg for money, for help, for assistance with armor, and other such issues. If I receive the money I will be able to help fund these various endeavours not only within my own guild, but also within my alliance. As they grow more knowledgable about the game and it's world, they will slowly be able to pass on their own knowledge. Yes it sounds a bit like a surreal Ms. United States answer, but we've got some damn fine guys who help out and I'd just like to lighten their burden a bit and help the new recruits. The kind of guys who can't spend the time needed to get cool weapons, new armor and such.

That's why I think I, as well as my associates and mates, deserve this money.

Thanks!
I think that guy has a pretty decent answer, if in fact he is telling the truth.

But, I would like to have your gold just because it would be nice. I think I would probably start a guild with some of my friends, and probably split the money with them. Well, maybe not split, but help them buy stuff they need. I would probably buy the very sexy 15k Luxon armor for my necro.(because its very cool looking) And then, I might try to play the economy. I've always wanted to see if I could really effect the economy, so I think with that little bit of money in my pocket, it might be a good time to try. I don't know if I deserve it more than anyone else here, but I really do want it. So, yeah, thats it.

give it to me, il rush my character from ascalon to desert and ascend and powerlevel him.
Then I will buy him forge/15k/FoW armor and eventually realise this game is pointless and delete the character and start over one day.

well give the money to me because u have already 700k and your 300k can help me get to 1mil, and i have never been at 1 mil, so basically you can help a rich person get richer (well not that rich i know 700k isnt that much compared to high rollers)
