Uber upgrade?

You seem to be saying that by playing on the realms, ... I am supporting (creating value for) dupes, hacks, cheats and bots.

Close. I am saying that, by playing on the realms (and having fantasies about BOTD ;) ) you (and everyone else who does) are creating value for the legit items (which the hackers might choose to then mass produce and pass off as legit). If there was no -desire- for said items, it would be an exercise in futility to try to sell them. But so long as they are desired, economics tells us that a market -will- exist.

You seem to be saying that by playing on the realms (which I do exclusively in passworded games either by myself or with friends whom I know to be as fanatical about legit play as myself) <snip by nameless noob ---&nbsp;&nbsp; blah blah ----> it's presumptious rubbish.

I take it back. If you only play with elitist prigs who know the secret password, and never mingle (and rarely deign even to converse with) the unwashed masses of the realms; If all of this is true, then maybe YOU PERSONALLY haven't contributed to the value of such items.

But if that IS the case, isn't it a bit presumptuous of you to be telling those of us that you'd not invite into your closed circle how WE should go about playing the game?

:huh: :unsure: <_< :P
