Title: cbchui and Lord.
Post by: Bravodor on Jun 14, 2004, 04:49 PM
Ive been gone on vacation for a while, so I am a bit out of the loop...
Today I was looking at the ranking page of the softyx site, and it seems that cbchui is being displayed as clanless.

did Lord get hacked agian ?

I wonder how much he got for the account anyway.

Post by: CommunistBus on Jun 14, 2004, 05:46 PM
why would you pay for an account... its not like you get cbchui's skills when you buy it? all it does is make you the worst dragon ever.

Post by: Drknecro on Jun 14, 2004, 05:48 PM
yet in a few weeks he wont be a dragon due to botters/lack of skills

If you can make 400 bucks by selling only pixles...and then make a new account and have more fun, the real question is why didnt he do it sooner ??


lame ?

if people want to buy it theres nothing you can say to discourage that.
I agree that whoever bought it got a raw deal, with a high rank that doesnt reflect his skills he is undoubtably going to be un-happy.

Heh, if i ever get good, and stop playing, ill sell my account...  even if i could only make 25$ off of it... thats 25$ more than i paid for the game, since the game was free in the first place :P

good point man!   Any profit is better then nothing, and I have to say it was smart of him to sell his profit to the complete moron, but.. his next plan should be to offer lessons to the fake chchui... honestly  :P

I thought selling accounts was a bannable offense if Softnyx ever found out...since ya know, I'm pretty sure in the EULA it says that all accounts are belong to Softnyx, since they keep them on their server and what not..

Oh well...

If i had 25 bucks,i'll get a totally different computer game.

Post by: Bravodor on Jun 15, 2004, 12:44 AM
You really cant get a decent computer game that is newer for 25 bucks.

But then agian you could still get more than 25 bucks, a pro account's items alone sold seperatly are worth more than 25 bucks.

and a wand account is worth something.

Under "Illegal Trade (Item, Account Trade involving Real Cash)" on their website in Help->Violations and Rules page, it says 15 days ban for first offense and ID confiscation for 2nd.  However, Softnyx is actually punishing the account buyer while the seller gets away scot-free.  Pity the poor schmuck who ends up being a 2nd buyer of a sold account.  :D

In any case, I think selling an account is pretty smart, although it's probably bordering on unethical and immoral.  I might even do just that once I level up to 3 digit ranking.  OTOH, buying an account is a noob thing to do.  But like they say, there's a sucker born every minute....

For every hydrogen molecue in the universe,there is a stupid person.
One water molecue contains 2 hydrogen molecues,
you do the math.

I would be pretty happy if someone wanted to buy my battle axe account for a dollar,let alone 20 dollars.

Ive heard that quote before somewhere...

where I dont recall, but yeah, real money for data is a pretty good deal for the seller, rank really isnt worth anything, and the items can be acheived by sliver battle axe.

whoever bought that account is a bit foolish.

If he had quit, I would understand....but to sell a account then continue playing....thats just lame.  If your going to sell, atleast quit first
Title: cbchui and Lord.
Post by: zyad on Jun 15, 2004, 12:36 PM
So you are saying that if someone offered you 400$ for your account you would not sell it to them and start over? i sure would...

If someone offered me 400$ for my GB account, I would sell it quit, and use it to twords my car.....

the thing is... get a job working as something you enjoy, and earn what, 10-60$ an hour... thats 8-40 hours to earn the money u need to buy cbchui's accnt, whereas cbchui has been playing... roughly 3 years*300*4= 3600 hours
I'd do the 8 hours of work and buy the accnt ;)

too bad you can't buy experience and brains

you cant make 10-60 bucks an hour, atleast not at my age anyways.
but the real question is why would anyone want cbcui's account.

with that rank it is hard to find a game without everyone kicking you, im only a wand and I experience lots of frustration looking for a game, that im usually kicked from next game.

image what it was like for him, I would have abandoned the account, he chose to sell it.

someone payed him to relieve him of one of his problems.
Title: cbchui and Lord.
Post by: creedo on Jun 15, 2004, 05:08 PM
Rank gets funny around dragon level.  Wands get kicked, but everyone wants to see what a dragon can do, so they play against you just to say they did it.... or to screencap if they win the game.

"I JUST PLAYED CBCHUI AND HE WAS AWFUL! ALSO HIS RANK DROP TO 30! WTF" ... you hear this from ppl who dunno the account is sold.
